Even though missiles and shield tanks sucked in 1.6, we only needed the changes in 1.7 done to shield boosters, missiles, and shield tank acceleration to make shield tanks and missiles competitive.

Give AV back its 1.6 stats and then we'll talk.

The context of this post is in 1.6....

I did mention that the only changes we needed were the current missile, shield booster, and shield tank acceleration.

Yes, but you also put the 1.6 and 1.8 HP/resist stats next to each other in a thread called 'I hate to say it, but 1.6 may have been better', which implied that you thought that 1.6 was better. Since you seem to be a vehicle user, people assumed you meant 'better for vehicles'.

You also did NOT say that under your plan AV would stay as it was in 1.6. So people assumed you meant that AV would stay in its nerfed state. Hence the responses you received.

I think what you meant was something like 'I favour 1.6 vehicle/AV balance but with current missile, shield booster, and shield tank acceleration'. But that isn't what you said, and it's only from your subsequent posts that I've been able to work that out.

Then how come I understood right away exactly what he meant?

Maybe infantry read it one way, tankers another? I wasnt the only one that read it like that. Anyway, it doesnt matter now we're all on the same page. I actually think the idea of 1.6 but with buffs to shield and missile tanks isnt a bad one. Will never happen tho.

On that note AV is still drastically nerfed from what it was in 1.6 and will remain only a minor threat at most. The people who whine about multiple players working together to take them out are stupid and no one should pay any attention to them. I lost a Dropship one time as a guy who was using a Militia Forge just kept shooting at me near the "three tower" entrance to the Research Lab. He couldn't get through my shield, so I engaged him, had him almost dead, and promptly died in one shot to a Wyrkomi Breach Forge his Corpmate fired from inside the main lab structure, where he couldn't have gotten a shot without his friend acting as bait Did that **** me off? Not even slightly. I love it when people coordinate like that and work to outsmart me. That Breach Forge wouldn't have been able to take me out if I wasn't saving my Hardener for a bigger threat, which I didn't know was there thanks to their good tactics. Yes, I've stopped using multiple Hardeners. Post hotfix I don't use Hardeners at all anymore, and simply use an Enhanced Heavy Shield Extender and Damage Mod. I actually took a fit like that into a PC match yesterday and got several kills, and even evaded getting taken out by a few railtanks. The bottom line is that no one likes to get soloed by something they can't see or fight back against, like getting insta-gibbed by invisible scouts, or shredded with 5 rounds from a pre-1.8 Rail Rifle, or losing your well-fit Madrugar or Gunnlogi to a Sica with two Damage Mods, a Railgun, and no tank whatsoever.
