why play ambush and call in 9 tanks?...why do "tankers" flock to ambush and not to domination/skirmish?
I mean cool you got a tank. It really dont make me no difference. I try to just avoid tanks anyway. but are you that scared to fight on the ground.
As a good team mate one would look around and see that half the team is in tanks and think to themselves "hey my team is out numbered on the ground maybe i should recall this tank and help those people." but no you choose to hide behind the other 8 tanks. I swear these types of tankers are just low. but its cool i would rather just having to worry about 9 to 7 guys on the ground anyway. |

due to smaller map size people are forced to deal with tanks, tankers take advantage of this and farm up their KDR. It also allows them to lock down the enemy team from getting tanks, ensuring they wont be killed themselves. And yes tankers are very scared to fight on the ground, why else do you think they need meter thick plates of steel/tritanium, and super hardened shields in order to fight other people, they have to make up for their lack of gunplay somehow. |

does this make you feel cool? like how jacked up do you get when you see 8 tanks beside you and you roll up on some infantry? |

Tankers only want to kill. They dont care about anything ells, just easy kills with no effert on there part. Ambush is all about killing, and thats why there in ambush.

First of all, the vehicle cap on a team is 7 vehicles, unless this number has been changed.
And second, anyone that uses a blaster tank in ambush is a scrub. Also rail tanks, because that's what they pull out when a real tanker blows them up with missiles.

9 TANKS? Thats almost significantly more than 7.

I chose to spec into tanks. Therefore, I try to run them. I am only running them in Ambush for this event though. It is a cluster ****, but CCP will have to get to it on fixing their game. Until then, it is deal with it or quit.
Personally, I hope people quit and leave CCP sitting in their own p*ss.

That's far from being a true tanker. Actually, Ambush has a quota of 9.
That last statement implies that it's impossible to be a scrub and a tanker; additionally, there are many people who have the SP investment to call themselves a tanker, yet share that mentality.
From what I have seen and heard, being a "true tanker" means being a vocal and/or a radical who favors vehicles (prefferably HAVs) when determining balance.
Are you an elitest, a dude with a grammar mistake, or a radical?

Go ahead....all right I'll tell you.....I was their *****.....carrying them here, carrying them there, carrying fine wines and caviar for them...... eugh it was atrocious.....and opulence in my HAV was off the charts.

To really get good at this game and to better your skill, I suggest you play objective based game modes, skrim and dom. Ambush is where many people go to "let it all hang out" for a bit. It's a "bring your best and throw it in the blender" type of game mode.
That's what ambush is. You get ambushed. And its basically team deathmatch.
I don't think people complained this bad when one guy would make a certain x amount of kills for the streak and then nuke everybody in COD.

You converted your HAV into an APC, and was forced to suffer as the gunners in your HAV were incompetent and couldn't hit the side of a barn?

Nope I love the APC.
I dont want to use anything else.
APC with my squad saw claim 6 tanks for every one of mine, redline on every map we stepped onto, and tear down all of those stupid arrogant ion cannon maddy players who thought they could fight us head on.
I was tanking wrong.
having small turrets is tanking right.

Wait did I just see a tanker admit that having small turrets on his tank is a good thing.....*grabs jaw off floor) who would have through 3 heads is better than 1. Who would have through that 3 things shooting at 1 tank is better than one big thing shooting at said tank....It's almost as if the tanks were designed to be used with 3 people, and the lone wolf tankers ruined it for everyone.
