So I have an Alt with 17 million passive unallocated SP,I thought I was pretty smart and created him just he would be fully prepared to be a full time Jet Pilot and dominate the skies. My logic failed in not realizing it was only a matter of time before the game died. Anyway I've just spent all 17 million on tanking, I've never played as a tanker before and I have very little knowledge about tanks in general, so here I am hoping you guys can help me enjoy this last bit of fun by giving the rundown on this tanking business.
1.) How do I steer? Seriously is my game broken, it takes an incredible moment of twisting and turning the joysticks for a long period of time before im able to turn the way i want to go.
2.) Is Armor or Shields better for tanking? Pros and cons?
3.) Any suggested fits?
4.) Why is the vehicle skill tree so f#cked up? Electronics, Engineering, HAV Operation. All leveled up to 5 and for what? Nothing. great job putting in skills that have the exact same name as the Dropsuit skills but have absolutely no correlation. 
5.) How do I activate my modules? is it automatic?

2. Armor for blasters, shield for rails.
Generaly armor is better. Therses no need for pros and cons.
3. Madrugar : i suggest ion cannon+cpu+repair+hardener+dmg mod all complex , or ion+ 2hards/reps + 1 rep/hard
4. You'll get use of most things from lv5 reqiurment (eg. armor modules, cpu upgrades)
5. Active modules by chosing tbem, click R2
Why thank you sir. I'll try out that madrugar fit. So from what you've told me it's better to just buy Madrugars and stay away from gunlogi's?

Thanks for the help guys I haven't had this much fun on dust in a while!
Ok I've been playing with the mouse and keyboard for tanks and the handling improvement is 100x better, still crappy handling but much easier. So far I've lost about 20 tanks, mainly due to other tanks being able to spot a noob tanker like myself from a mile away.
One problem I have though is the Mouse wheel and the way to active your modules. Having to move your mouse in order to activate a module while in a gun fight or making your escape makes absolutely no sense. I've died the most due to this very reason.
Also is it just me or is the turret turn speed super slow? I literally having to pick up my mouse and swipe about 10 times just to make a 180GÇó turn. My mouse is 3500 Dpi Razr Deathadder and my sensitivity is all the way at 100...

Why did you put more than a single point into HAV operation? Did you not read it and see that it is a dead skill?
!
I thought there were multiple tiers of tanks just like dropsuits. I guess you could say if was my fault for not reading the description but I've been playing this game long enough to know what everything does or should do just by reading the title. Nice one CCP.

AV is never getting fixed, that's already a given. Besides it's too late I've already spent the points.

How are you guys fitting proto weapons and modules on your tanks? I can't even fit more than 2-3 enhanced modules with just 1 basic large turret before I'm over my CPU/PG limit :/
Is there a skill I'm not seeing that raises CPU/PG?
