The one thing I do not understand about this community is that a good majority assume that vehicle users have either no gun play, or are simply bad at FPS games. I wonder if people ever considered the thought that some (or most) vehicle users were once mainly infantry in terms of playstyle, and decided to swtich it up a bit to keep things fresh.

I also do not understand why people assume that AV is still a complete joke. I do just fine with any ADV tier forge gun, and have no real reason to pull out proto varients...

I do not mean to be rude, but I wonder how much effort people actually bother to put into destroying vehicles. It's not meant to be strenuously difficult, but not especially easy either. There are still issues regarding swarm launchers and dropship resistances, which are unintended, but surely isn't the end of the world and needlessly needs to be complained about.

I'm a scout, sentinel, commando, part time logi, and Incubus pilot. I tend to favor well and usually place in the top 6, usually amongst other squad members and close friends, who also endeavor in both vehicles and infantry, and are exceptional in both departments.

I guess there is more open space to mount a counter attack. However 5 tanks on one side in a match is still dumb. Where'd you get those games? Today was rather boring when I tanked for the first time in weeks. Only a few tanks at most to pop. It felt like a ghost town in comparison to 1.7/1.8 with all those militia tanks about. Edit: I was even in matches where there were more ADS than tanks... "By His light, and His will" - The Scriptures, Gheinok the First, 12:32

I tend to favor well and usually place in the top 6, usually amongst other squad members and close friends, who also endeavor in both vehicles and infantry, and are exceptional in both departments. I came into Dust with several years of CoD and about a year of BF3 under my belt. When I first played Dust in closed beta, I only ran on foot for quite some time, as I didn't know much about the game. My first experience with tanking was around the time when missiles were incredibly powerful and were nerfed straight into the ground with near complete uselessness. Then shortly before the switch to TQ I began casually tanking, and I pursued Caldari HAVs after the switch to TQ. Since then this character has been all about vehicles (Caldari vehicles). It was all about doing something different than running on foot in CoD for over three years and I enjoyed the vehicle warfare in BF3. I also have a 12 (?) million SP alt which runs Amarr assault with laser rifle. My gun game is on the constant up and down cycle, but I almost always end up with a positive KD and ISK efficiency. Just yesterday I got a personal best with most kills in one match when I went 43/4. "By His light, and His will"- The Scriptures, 12:32 -- "Scouts should fart repeatedly while cloaked"- TechMechMeds
