Killing a Baloch with my blaster nets me 340 WP if it only has a single occupant. That is more than I will typically get with any kind of AV, and in a much shorter span of time. It was a buff, maybe not to combat effectiveness, but to ISK and WP efficiency.

It also gives people incentive to A.V. so it's a win ... win for everyone . Remember Fiend : Your cool . My only goal is to nerf tanks Nerfing one single aspect of Vehicle vs AV doesnt achieve anything though...... Discussing balance and presenting a well supported and rationalised statement to CPM/CCP would do much better for balance.

Since when did you morph into Mr the Captain Kirk?
Either that; or you've been brainwashed with Federation propoganda.
Would explain that time I saw you passed out in front of that sleazy Gallente club.

To be fair to DUST Fiend, CCP's record on using player feedback constructively is pretty poor.
Even if you were to craft the perfect "balanced" solution True, it's very unlikely that CCP would listen or implement your suggestions.
Don't let that stop you from searching for constructive criticism on the issue, but don't assume it's going to any good.
CCP is not looking for our feedback or suggestions, as evidenced by their refusal to respond or acknowledge the tank balance issue.
Also, tank trolls blindly protecting the ridiculous tank vs. infantry combat we have now isn't helping.
I think Fiend realizes that the quickest way to get a nerf (CCP's form of balance) is to blatantly and repeatedly abuse a game mechanic for so long it actually starts to bother the Devs.
I think he will actually get a response faster thru his tongue-in-cheek passive aggressive behavior than you will with a (possibly) good intentioned call for constructive suggestions.
Good luck to you both.

I've actually been against this my entire time as a gamer and with my time in DUST, up until now. My patience has simply faded away at this point. I mean, I was a Prometheus pilot for Gods sake >_<
I'm just taking the path of least resistance at this point. Plus, it makes me laugh so damn hard. That's how I know something is OP, when it makes me feel all warm inside like Murder Taxi's did (and I only did that for a couple days, but oh my god the lulz)

People like you are why we cannot have balance.
Let me get this straight.
Because you create threads that discuss you wanting to balance tanks a bit more,
you can roll around dominating the field all day long, while crushing the hopes and dreams of anyone fresh out of the academy that might falsely assume the game is balanced, is perfectly okay?
But if someone else does the same exact ******* thing with a different mindset, its all the sudden a crime against everything Dust?
Regardless of your comments on the forums, you are no better then he is while in game. Get off your pedestal. |

As a Myron pilot for 3 builds I know that feeling. I was broke and frustrated until one day I abruptly realized that the game was DESIGNED to make flying dropships a terrible idea. After that moment I understood you have to play the game CCP releases, not the one you wish they did.
For 1.7 and 1.8, on the majority of maps the game is designed to put infantry at a significant disadvantage to vehicles. You can rage quit or take a break for 4-6 months if you don't like it or you can learn to play tankbush.
I saw some redberries in the last match who must have thought that just because we got new suits that tanks were on a holiday. A group of 4-5 were in the open on Manus Peak like tourists and quickly got a reminder this is still tankbush.
You can try to play the game you wish CCP had made, but it's going to be a frustrating experience.

Huh. I didn't think about people in tanks killing other vehicles getting extra points..... That's kinda crazy. That may just increase the tank spam.
But, I get lots of points now when I forge gun a tank and they run to the red line. Then they come back and I shoot them again. It a nice cycle. Really dumb, but nice. |

DMG reward was created to fight the tank spam, to make less "isk void" the AV role.
But if tanks get wp for DMG, we'll see only MORE tank spam.

Oh Ok ........... it's the tanks and LAVs that get WP for damage to vehicles. I misunderstood patch notes. I was under the impression the SL would of got some too being it is an "AV" weapon. Last night I got 0 points in one match for heavily damaging a paper dropship and a tank testing this new development. My reward = 50 kill assist points with 2 deaths. I feel like such a moron.

Major oversight.
This additional WP should be awarded only to damage done to vehicles with AV weapons, not with other vehicles/turrets.

WP are buffing tanks 'cause more WP=More payout.
And if people gain more payout they can bring whatever they want witouth the risk of going negative ( not that they risk that with actual tank cost)

Did you really expect warpoint for AV would only benefit Infantry?? This is indeed a buff for vehicle drivers as some already pointed out before the introduction of this. And for vehicles drivers even more so as e.g a Rail tank gets ALL the points.
The partial points AND the points for destruction whereas infantry AV is only allowed to get the points for damage thanks to their toy AV... |

why, exactly? Damage to vehicles is damage to vehicles and thats that. A railgun is an AV weapon as well. |

First and foremost this was introduced to encourage and reward Infantry AV but in CCPs usual manner this doesn't worked out so well.
But what really bugs me is when you OHK a vehicle your get less WP, lets say a scout that uses RE's will only get 150 WP for a HAV destruction, whereas a blaster tank can get up to ~250WP for the destruction of a LAV (ok for swarms it the same).
The only difference is the blaster tanks needs lets say 3 shots to destroy the LAV whereas th scout uses 3 RE's doing damage in one blast... |

so you get 315 WP for destroying an LAV with a blaster I only get 165 WP for destroying an LAV with a proximity mine WTF??
CCP this needs to be balanced.
Should be 75wp for x amount of damage (say 500)
So an LAV with 1500 HP would payout the following So blaster would get +75 + 75 + 75 + 40 + 50 = 315
Proximities should get + 75 + 75 + 75 + 40+ 50 = 315 not +75 + 40 + 50 = 165
You are again favouring tankers, Hense I will not be playing on my tanker for a while. |

I was kicking around last night on a skirmish.
Went 7/1, had a completely boring match other than one guy on the enemy team who kept trying to rush me in a tank. Popped him four times. Picked a few infantry off as well as a few pieces of equipment.
But because the guy was running a dual hardened armor tank, I ended up with 2600 WP for basically doing nothing. I don't mind getting an additional 1000 WP for no additional effort, but it really unbalances the WP and screws up the payout system when you allow one player to concentrate so many WP.
Tankers didn't need more WP than we already were getting.
Real AV doesn't stop until all the tanks are dead.
