thx for that insightful glance into your yery confused mind as I say to every post asking ccp to make players solo tank slaying gods.. ITS A TANK ITS SUPPOST TO BE HARD AS **** TO KILL, and 2nd my tanks get killed by av all the time. and I don't even go into main area! you just need to work together with other players to take it down.(unlees you maxed out proto forgeguner)

and as to trying to take away what pg cpu or slots we have, I guess you were not around in beta, tanks use to be WAY MORE POWERFUL! then ccp toke away our CPU and PG making them the jokes we see today the only thing new these days is the fact that AV got nerfed

CONT.....

I think O'Dell has the right idea here, though I'm not sure about the implementation, I'll leave that to others more knowledgeable than I. Vehicles need to be thought of in terms of Dropsuits, not be their own special category. If you think in these terms it becomes a little easier to balance, because you no longer say "but it's a Tank!", because you realize that it's just the next step up in the Dropsuit size scale.

Light Frame Dropsuits
Medium Frame Dropsuits
Heavy Frame Dropsuits
Light Frame Vehicles
Medium Frame Vehicles
Heavy Frame Vehicles

So a general example of HP spread would be something like this; if Light Frames had 100 HP's, then Medium Frames would have 200, Heavy Frames-300, LAV's-400, MAV's-500, HAV's-600. I think we would be better served if we thought in these terms, and I would bet that it wouldn't take more than a week for someone to come up with a balance that most would agree to.
