And here I was starting to like you. My main beef with the whole redline tanks is pretty vast.
1) The whole thing about it is half the people redline tanking were huge vaginas that would never even touch the point.
2) All it takes for a redline tank, even a militia one, is two shots with a damage mod with my hardeners down and I'm done for.
3) Compared to the two shots it takes to bring me down, it takes two clips to blow up a tank from me, and that's not even accounting for hardeners.
4) Before the hot-patch, tanks could shoot my ADS before if even landed, in my redline. You had a good 600 meter plus range on those things.
5) An example comes to mind, I've been chasing away a tank causing all sorts of hell on my team, it happened to be rail. I chase you all the way to the red, and get you down to a sliver before I have no choice but to bug out, you turn around and start getting brave, I get shot down. I can think of no one who wouldn't get their lunch eaten just a little bit about that.
6) A militia tank, as stated before, can two shot me with the right fittings. The tank in question costs around 70k isk and 0 SP. My ADS cost around 500k per, and I've poured at least 5 mil into this hobby, and intend to do more besides.Why the heck does some douchebag in the red who probably refused to play for the point or even try to support his team get to spend 70k and no SP to kill me, but I have to pour gobs of my SP to not even be able to reach him.
7) On the whole ADS rockets get 200 Meters, first off, where in god's green earth did you come up with that number? Second, even if it did reach that far, we have no zoom function, and we have to constantly worry about keeping it steady, which is enough of a chore, no ADS pilot, aside from Snugglez, is superhuman. We can't keep an ADS steady, launch two clips into you from the redline at "200" meters at the same time. And even then, only the most idiotic of tankers would just stand still and let this happen.
8) Much like I know little about tanks, you clearly know nothing about ADS, so before you start running your mouth saying we're OP, we've been at the mercy of redline tankers who, as stated for a third time, won't touch a point or even try to support their team, for too long. I'm glad you all got the range nerf, maybe tanks will learn to actually play for the objective for once.
9) If you're going to complain about something, get an expert opinion of how it's like on the other side. It's not too difficult in this case, ADS pilots are very vocal when it comes to this kind of crap.
10) There's something called teamwork, proper fitted vehicles shouldn't take one rail or forge or even a swarm, it should take at least two, tanks included on this. So just because you can't take us on solo anymore don't think we're invincible, get a friend with at least adv AV to help for god's sake.
