This is why I'm saying buff AV, the only time I've been killed by handheld AV is in PC with CUBS and one of his forge friends shooting me at once.

Or, you could quit Dust, and cease ruining it for people that want a different play style, and go play Call of Duty. I have less than zero respect for people like you.

Oh, so you're saying you want the main tank killer to be AV and not another tank. Yeah I can dig that

Thank you for actually listening to me unlike some of the other people posting on this topic right now.

I see what you're saying It's just buffing AV is just going to continue the vicious cycle where then Tanks will whine they die to easy again. The best way to fix any imbalances in a game is to give distinct advantages and disadvantages to everything creating roles.

Tanks would best served as 3 man killdozers so that their role as a spearhead to an advancing team would be best served. Right now if you keep buffing/nerfing tanks and av it will be an endless cycle.

Likewise I believe regular dropships should remain transport vehicles with harassment potential with dedicated turrets while ADS should be a harassment tool with more weapons potential or solo potential. They just need to make it to where rail installations can't aim as high. LAVS are fine drivers just need to quit flooring it if they expect the turret to hit anything.

They also just need to make the Red line a bullet barrier that you cannot retreat into so that it will act as the only thing it was meant to be, something that stops spawn camping and allows a team to regroup.

I whole heartedly believe if all these things were implemented we would see a much more diverse and interesting battlefield and it would end a lot of the QQ and imbalance.

Then hopefully CCP can focus on new content like PVE, more game modes, and a player market.

Although the pessimist in me tells me that CCP will instead just keep buffing and nerfing av and tanks and continue to waste time. You can either solo a tank with AV or you can't. If you can, they need to be fairly cheap. If you can't, they need to require teamwork themselves to be fully combat effective. It's not rocket science, it's game theory.

While you're at it, also remove Tanks.
Thank you.

If you hadn't asked a tank to require a tank to take down, you wouldn't see so many tanks, taking down tanks.
The power of rails is the punishment you get for asking for overpowered tanks, may mlt rail guns continue to blow you up until you understand how you brought this upon your self.

How is using blaster tanks fun to wreck infantry after av was nerfed into oblivion? When you answer that question you will have the answer as to why people use rail guns to kill tanks. If people didn't want to be cheap exploitative jerks they wouldn't be using tanks at all in 1.7.
