I know you feel entitled to be able to kill everything with whatever your current fitting is, by yourself, with no help. You are however, not.
Considering how AVers give up a primary to do so, while also having to spend similar amounts of SP as other roles (including the Tanker role); yes we are indeed entitled. No, you're not. You're a peasant attempting to fight a knight in full armor with a pitchfork. Stick to the fields. You have no right whatsoever to intrude on a tank fight as a pathetic infantryman and expect equal treatment. "AV" is an emergency role that happens when a lack of tankers are present, or when your tanks have been suppressed into the red line. It is not meant to be as good as another tank.
this is exactly how its supposed to work you little infantry AV can dispatch LAVs and derpships quite quickly, any more of a buff and it wold be op in that area, if you want to kill tanks your best shot is with another tank not on foot against a 3-4 ton monstrosity in a little dropsuit you ar retarted for even thinking you can solo kill an ATNI-INFANTRY vehicle as an infantry |

Do you have a quote from a developer saying that? If not, then that statement is about as credible as me stating that tankers are emergency roles that aren't supposed to be as good as another AVer. Oh wait, a DEV just stated that this current V/AV is imbalanced; effectively turning what you said into the ramblings of a drunkard. It's an assumption based on the fact that any other design is ridiculous and renders vehicles pointless. If it is not superior, it is equal or inferior. If it is equal and has superior cost and summoning issues over that of a dropsuit, it is worthless. If a single AV can take out tanks, then in PC I wouldn't see any need to field tankers ever. They would provide no tactical benefit. You do realize you made rhe exact argument about IAV. If we can't kill tanks better than tanks what tactical purpose does it serve? More importantly why does one player get to have this huge advantage over one class of player and complete invulnerability to another without giving up the ability to kill everyone else? your little infantry av wepons wor perfectly well against LAVs and derpships that is its main function not killing anti-infantry tanks |
