Or how about this? *Que tears down the face* "Those heavies! I hate it when one sneaks up on me from behind and knifes me, especially when I'm in my scout suit! I should be able to hear them from 50 meters away, not when they knife me in the back! I shouldn't have to use my eyes and look at the TacNet to spot them!" Ok crutch boy. Sadly, the Noise of TANKS is not HIGH enough. Constant visaul Contact with enemy tanks is hard and is VERY map dependant. Now, ,if i have 2 Complex Precision enhancers , Scan precision on 5, on a Gal scout with 2 Complex range amplifiers...GIVE ME A GOOD REASON WHY I CAN DETECT enemy scouts and Med frames 40 mts away but i cant see a tank sneaking behind me.
Dude..... you need to pay more attention then. You can hear them from 50m away.... I mean sure I am a Tanker but sound awareness is key to identifying HAV types and locations.
Give it a try, an hour or two and you can do it as well.

I only have stereo and because dust 514's sound engine is terrible at times, its feasible for an HAV to sneak up on me. now... vehicle call downs you cannot hide at least.
Fair call... I don't know if my headphone affect this....additionally I also like to stop and power down my own engines to get a clear listen to what I might be driving into.

Give it a try, an hour or two and you can do it as well. my good friend Adamance... That is NOT A REASON why a Tank should have better dampening tahn ANY suit. Your point , is invalid. If i spend MILLIONS of SP in E-WAR, is because i like to see stuff in my radar see? As far as picking them up by sound, doesn't really help when there are 300 Bullets flying around ,explosiones the Chick that says that thanks to my useless blue berries we are loosing ''X'' Objective.... Not only! what happens if my GF is sleeping and i have to turn DOWN the volume? Then im F*** just because your solution is to pay more attention to sounds?What if i am DEAF? HUH? Im not mad, just using over dramatic Forum skillz to make my point.... A REASON, can SOMEONE give me a GOOD reason why a tank has less Db than ANY suit?
It not a reason no....I never said it was. Only suggested that it was in fact a way you could identify and acknowledge the presence of enemy HAV units on the battlefield.
You think you are the only on who gets blindsided by such tanks? If anything I suffer from that sort of think more.... having a Particle Cannon materialise behind you or next to you sucks ass.

It's not ignorance.....we are very loud, have head lights we can't turn off, and our turrets can be heard across the map.

Arggh this tanker ignorance is killing my brain cells Your suit has a maximum detection range. You want to see tanks further out? Put on range extenders. So basically, you're telling me, that you are both deaf AND blind? Have you seen the huge change of ambient light that is splayed in front of a tank? I can walk across the map, look around and say, "I see lights over there, so it must be a vehicle". Then there's the sound... "OH wait, that noise approaching sounds like a tank (turns camera) Yeah it's on the road to my left, so this area is clear" I have NEVER encountered a tank where I did not expect one while running the ground game. Sorry that my ground game far exceeds yours due to me being competent. But that's not an excuse to start crying. Fine, i demand third person view and active scanners that scan 360 for me for 30 seconds. Also, i demand you buy me surround sound and that enemy tanks have different sounds than friendly tanks so that your points about situational awareness are validated.
I don't have surround sound. Just keep an ear out, it will save your life for times that once.

I play with no sound most of the time. I guess that is just a left-over from eve. Although when I do get on comms with you guys, all of the noise is a bit distracting.
I suppose so... I personally love those moments we get comms discipline down pat..... most of the time I don't feel like Aero can't tell people to STFU if they aren't in our corp.......

There is no reason why a TAnk should have lower db than a heavy frame. I think most players don't understand that DB IS A MEASUREMENT OF SOUND...
Not totally.... and I don't think anyone has disagreed with us showing up.... issue is that people think that is hard to find HAV on the map..... guys really?
No its not.
A simple trip to the overhead screen and BAAAM you found us.
Prick up those ears.....you found us.
Is it dark? Nope you found us.
Is that a blaster...yup you found us....
Its not that hard.
