Price was reduced to around 20-40% of what it used to be but fun was reduced to 0.00001% of what it used to be. EDIT: I will gladly pay to have fun, but will I pay to get bored and torture myself and kill my braincells? Well, yes, cause I have no choice in the matter, CCP made the choice for me. R.I.P. Pre-1.7 tanks, you will be missed.

Hopefully they address this fact soon. As a tanker from back then, I know what you mean fella. I miss it too and hate this **** they call "Tanking" now a days. Variety in tanks is gone, to be hopefully added back in the future. Tanks - Balancing Turrets

The only thing you really get is more active time which is useless for the 3 to 5 seconds an encounter lasts. Mil mods and tanks are just as good for zero sp. No wonder everyone is pulling out a rail sica like cheap cigarettes any time the going gets tough. Brick tanking a scout suit since April 2013!

Reallusion GrimSleeper Need Permission to Die LLC 41	Posted - 2014.04.05 17:45:00 - [24] - Quote The only thing I despise about tanks is the fact that I invested in those dumb missles. Missles are ONLY good for taking out other vehicles, installations, CRUs, or Supply Depots. I can have a red dot on a still targets head and shoot and miss, even if i unload all the missles 1 by 1. How can a missile shot at someone's feet hit right next to them and do pretty much no damage. I mean, it's a missle. wtf? I don't even mind the missing, it's' funny to me... but why do the missles have GREATLY reduced damage from further distances? Again.. IT'S A MISSSSLLLEEEE!! That's what missles DO, they blow ish up from a distance. I find it embrassing to the designer that in order for a MISSILE to effectively damage another tank, it has to be in shotgun range. Meanwhile, the swarm launchers can chase you indefinitely and do great damage across the map. Join the revolution... change the future.

True Adamance Praetoriani Classiarii Templares Praetoria Imperialis Excubitoris 9269	Posted - 2014.04.05 20:33:00 - [29] - Quote I can agree with the fitting thing, and that prior to 1.8 Tanking required a bit more skill to use since AV was so over blow OP in terms or damage at extreme ranges..... but at the same time 1.7 did something that only Chromosome really did. It made tanking viable and fun... I have to say that while I find some aspects of HAV combat lacking now, or unbalanced I still find it overall to be relatively enjoyable and actually a viable way to play the game now. Atleast I can afford to run proper HAV, and FYI to those who are all over the tanks must = expensive.....well sure......but they should never be a rich mans playstyle.....also I am unsure how people ever justified having a 2.8 Million ISK tank..... I could go out on eve and buy a 100m long destroyer with guns the size of, and with 10x the power of my HAV fully kitted out of 3 Million ISK.....and that ship is capable of interstellar travel.
