I make sure the blueberries can have an infantry match once in awhile even if i can't.
if tankers ever stop deciding the out come of every match i'll never touch the stupid things again. Does this include Uprising? If so, you're gonna have a bad time.
O.o? yes it includes uprising we've been in uprising for nearly a year, and I've been killing tank regularly for this whole year. |

well, during closed beta and at the beginning of open beta i started out as Fat-Bro - but it was at the end of chromosome when i reached and never abandoned anymore the balance of keeping at least half of my SP in vehicles (34mio. so far - before current event bonuses).
and since i think that you simply cannot be a "Real Pro-Tanker" in Dust514 without having/ successful pretending to have a massive ego and arrogant altitude - and since i am quite successful managing to have that too - i pick whatever entitelment i want b****es, cuz this is World of Tanks 514 yada, yada! :) |

I believe it was before Chromosome when large missiles had infinite range and zero dispersion?
Because I believe that's when I first stepped into the pilot's seat of a tank. So I'm "Old school"

I made a shield tanker and an armor tanker char when I first started playing, which was a month before Uprising was released. I then recreated my shield tanker on its own account for the sake of passive sp just before 1.7.
I love tanks in RL as well as this game, but I suck at using missiles to overcoming rails and double hardened maddies. I am pretty good at evading rails and missiles when on my maddy with a blaster. I reluctantly specced into rails and suck at using those. I can surprisingly one shot infantry with missiles.
What does that make me?

Coming from the BF series where I always played a tanker, I've been playing with tanks since I started this game more than a year ago.
Frankly, tanking was extremely un-fun pre-1.7, so I went assault/logi for the past year, only playing with tanks occasionally on my alt.
Since 1.7, I've played much more as tanks have become entirely fun again, and I expect I'll spend quite a bit of my saved up SP into tanks for 1.8 allowing me to play both assault and tanker in PCs on my main.
If those reading this thread would like to label and/or demean me for the above behavior, please be my guest. |

I would say i'm a Old school fair weather true blue tanker called my precious...
I started out as a sniper/hvy/tanker in closed beta, then specced out of hvy and tanks to try other stuff, just to roll back into them, then with the last vehicle respec, got out of tanks again to finish my full hvy training, just to start all over again in tanks. I just can't help it.. they keep on calling me my precious...

I have toyed with tanks in every build since replication, but I have never been a 100% dedicated HAV pilot. I suppose I'm what you'd call a "Tinker Tanker".

I specced ZERO SP into 1.7, which is what I guess you meant to put. Otherwise, I'm in a whole different world to all you scrubs for not even being mentioned on the list |

Got into tanking seriously in Chromosome. Wanted to respec somewhere else after 1.0 but man, everything else sucked rocks. So SP went back into tanks. And the same occurred in 1.7, didn't want to but getting shredded by the OP day 1 Combat and Rail rifles made the game too dull to continue. Guess what? Yep, back into tanks.
And so it goes.

I started trying tanking with around 2 months or so left in Chromosome. I had STD tanks for some weeks before Uprising. I've been tanking since then, and also forced myself to use a keyboard during Chrome as well. Far superior to a DS3 for tanking.
I may be missing something, but I'm pretty sure that I didn't call for a tank nerf before Uprising 1.7. - Atiim

I never run from a tank fight or get out when I'm about too die, I die with my tank. And if theres no enemy tanks or we already have 2 tanks on the field I'll recall my tank. I take revenge on tankers blasting helpless infantry, and I REALLY like blowing sh!t up! Infantry doesn't explode when you shoot it, vehicles do.

My tanker alt? Since 1.3, specced his first 500k into armor reps.
Took me till 5 million SP to be able to survive 4 militia swarm shots.
Sad to say though, that build was really BS when my triple carapice hardener, 180poly and efficient heavy rep couldnmt survive 3 proto swarm shots and an av nade. That was when i put it down for a while, as i lost my 900k tank to a 120k swarm fit, instantly. Were you tanking in Chromosome?

Surprisingly enough, even when AV was OP, infantry still made threads here complaining that they couldn't solo some tankers.
Remember: when infantry complained about contact grenades, they were nerfed into the ground. When tankers complained about AV grenades, infantry said "LOL HTFU" and that was that.

Dishonest arguments anyway, considering how straightforward it was to rush a tank in a LAV and destroy it with AV grenades.

My GalLogi has 23.75 hp/s repair.
Amusingly effective in conjunction with the implausible range of a Kaalakiota RR.
First of all, there are more turrets than simply blasters. Second of all, I don't and never have. It is, however, entirely possible in my personal experience, to set up a position where a tank MUST retreat. LogiLAVs and AV nades made it easy.
Finally. 'If you let people run up to you and throw contact grenades at you then your [sic] a bad'.
I mean, really.
If I want to contribute to the team, I have to put myself in a position where I can easily be destroyed by AV nades. You imply that I'm doing something wrong by being on a position where I can be naded.
But you seem to have an issue with tanks being used for nothing more than kill-farming machines.
I've had my GalLogi since it existed. I experienced contact nades directly.
As far as I'm concerned AV grenades were far more devastating.
I regret that swarm launchers have been nerfed so hard. It is a shame that the PLC is such a gimp. The forge gun could possibly use some charge time back.
AV nades can get nerfed harder for all I care.

not if I have any say in it. I'm operating within the confines of the game, if you bring tanks to my house I will blow them up one way or another.
if you want to cry about SP, I needed to invest my sp into tanks as well, so it's not like you are alone for wasted sp. |

nah up until 1.7, tanks didn't interfere with matches as much, I would blow up tanks that did but it was rare I ever "needed" to kill a tank, they did their damage but we could operate around 1 or 2 tanks.
in 1.7 tanks "need" to be removed for the rest of the roles to operate properly, now it's 6 tanks and their blaster murder everyone even tanks, and even if you kill them they come back in seconds, you need dedicated "removers". |
