You're still complaining about ambush.

If I was head of CCP, I would've come to the realization that most, if not 99% of the people that complain about tanks, are in ambush 99% of the time.

At that point, I would've said "Fine, we're nerfing vehicle count from 7 to 4. That's it."

Why? Because you all complain that you can't solo a tank with less than minimal effort. You can't destroy it with a charge sniper rifle, and you can't destroy it with an MH82, and you can't destroy a Gunnlogi with an ELM laser rifle. I then would've started locking threads that complain about tanks, then offering people short vacations from the forums.

Why? Because we get individual nerfs, while for AV to get nerfed, requires a whole rework of the AV-vehicle relationship.

When infantry complained about contact grenades, they were nerfed into the ground. When tankers complained about AV grenades, infantry said "LOL HTFU" and that was that.

Late edit: should've been nerf vehicle from 7 to 4 in ambush only.

When someone kills nearly half the enemy clones in a match and doesn't die once, something is clearly imbalanced. Whatever you say about skill or matchmaking or being able to call in your own tanks, every ambush should not be a case of tanker cleans up.

Large turrets should never be anti-infantry.

Obviously a tanker who goes into ambush and hides in a tank

If you're letting a blaster tank decimate your team, you clearly don't have any AV on the field ...

I am a logi bro, I have nearly 6million war points lol! Check the leaderboards. The OP doesn't say anything about topping the leaderboards infact I do this every game. It was merely suggesting that Tanks should not be allowed in ambush because of their clear advantage over ground infantry. With CEOPyrex's most recent videos this is part of the problem and contributes to the terrible new player experience. CCP should have just removed tanks and ADS from ambush when they dropped it down to two.

What I've gotten from this thread is that someone topped the board in a HAV and that seemed problematic. However, the core issue with Ambush right now is not the people that top the board in HAVs, but the people that are readily feeding them those scores. It may seem off-topic, but what I'm attempting to say is that it really isn't that hard to top the board. HAVs topping the board is about as common as a logibro sitting on the top as well.

And no, that wasn't FW. If it was FW I would probably have been kicked for team killing the little ***** that wouldn't do anything but feed the enemy team. I haven't been in FW in... a while.

Added note: I should also add that, if I remember correctly, naming and shaming is against the rules. Aside from all of this stop feeding Ambush HAVers kills.

This blanket statement assumes that AV is effective, which is often not the case.

Ahh yes, this is true.

In this day and age, though, by AV I mean friendly Rail Tanks. Ain't nobody got time for the pathetic excuse that is infantry AV.

It's not a 'handful' of 20/0 screenshots. That's pretty much 95% of ambush games. Occasionally you will get equivalent tanks on both sides that cancel each other out. But that's the exception.

Also, a handful of 20+/0 screenshots doesn't prove tanks are OP in Ambush, because you can do the same for Scouts, Logis and Heavies if you have good teamwork and a random squadless pub group as the enemy.

Ambush - Team Deathmatch

Objective - To kill deplete the enemies clones
