Tankers have now moved from ambush to skirm and domination.
I guess there is more open space to mount a counter attack.
However 5 tanks on one side in a match is still dumb.

I was having tons of fun countering tankers in domination. I think I managed to destroy around 6 in one match (and nevermind LAVs & drop ships).
With that being said, either I was going up against scrub tankers, or the Nerf combined with a fix to swarms&forges was too much.

Meh.
Tankers are scrubs and rather easy to kill when "Smart Deploy" doesn't spawn you directly in-front of their blaster. I guess that just goes to show how skilled people really are when they don't have 80% resistance or god-mode Armor Repairers to carry them.
It's rather sad actually. The only ones who even bother putting up a fight are those with 20GJ Railguns attached.

If you think tanking is I-Win button now you .... welp..... ugh this community who can't accept they just got beaten by something they personally don't like......
Frankly I am going to say this to you.
If you don't want to lose mount your own armoured attack. If the enemy is willing to commit X amount of assets to a fight then you need to be, or have a strategy to defeat them.... if not then you deserve to lose.

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...

You have militia swarm launchers. You can use a militia forge gun. Or you can field a militia tank... All without SP investment.
It may not be the most effective AV, but it can net you WP, deter the vehicle, and maybe even kill it. Give it a try. Its better than sitting on your butt, not even attempting to counter the now-nerfed tanks.

AV is still joke. Mlt gear does nothing to deter any AV. So until AV is balanced to match the AV output, AV just isn't an option for anyone but those in proto gear.

LOL what are you talking about? I can whip out a cheap standard FG and still put in work. You can even skill into remotes to help out. Or try some AV nades. Two or three people concentrating on AV produces results.

My fault tanks are not an issue.lol
Whatever it must be nice to be a tanker I guess. Easy point and shoot half the players or more on the field can do 0 damage to you. If you do get In Trouble just drive off to the redline.

You are assuming that I did not go through the same things you are now when I started....except back then I had to deal with Closed Beta vets running High SP Marauder Tanks....... you think the current Tanks are powerful? Those monsters were so scary CCP removed them from the game.
What I am saying is that you and your team should be willing to invest in your own HAV, and you can.
MLT HAV currently invalidate a good 60% of my SP and I have about 20 Million in HAV in HAV. You can counter any highly invested Tanker with minimal effort now.
I can help you learn to destroy enemy HAV if you would like, teach you how to Tank yourself if you want.

I don't even think Michael is a tanker.
Also most tankers run a secondary Infantry suit, mine is the Commando and Assault, and I am reasonably good at what I do, having been infantry first and skilling into tanks a little over 9 months ago.

Close minded fools, remain fools. I'm actually skilled into multiple roles to be prepared for whatever is thrown at me and the team. So I don't need a tank for the "I Win Button". Scarface told you best, all I got is my balls and my word.
But obviously you're another KDR padding for me and the hungry wolves.

Not really.
Aero Yassavi, a squad mate I often play with has no HAV skills, just Assault Forgeguns.
Templar 12 also has no HAV skills, but I think he flies ADS.
Eirik Yassavi (not to be confused with Aero) is a Heavy and has no vehicle skills.
All of them do just fine without HAV.
But don't take my word on it. Guys like Arkena Wynspire, !st Lieutenant Tiberius, Lea Silencio, Viktor Hadah Jr...... I never see them in vehicles and they are widely considered some of this games best players.

How many skill points today though?
It might have been different if I played this game for months I would much rather specialise in rifles, but it doesn't make sense , of I don't have AV first I can barely survive.
Granted I could play only ambush from now on but honestly I was enjoying the open maps and the ability to get around to the other letters.
The game has changed since the update and it is much more difficult for us new players against tanks.
Sorry that tankers don't get that but its only because they are protecting their easy button. |

Hey man, we understand that. But to remain in one mold is bad for your health, anywhere, especially in New Eden. Like Bruce Lee said, be as water. Adjust to the situation. You're not the first that had to change his game due to changes in game and you won't be the last.

In other words, you have to adapt or die.

Your right I have to adapt to tanks being in skirm and Dom much more than they were before because of the update.
I have to become a tanker or av specialist first.
That to me IS the problem. I have to adapt to tankers first before I can enjoy the game as a gunner. |

Fair comments to make, I used to say the same of AVers back when looking at a Tank Side ways cause it to explode. In the end, I too have issues with HAV, the way they are now rewards low SP investment with huge power gain, rather than rewarding high SP investment with fair power gains.
Basically I stand by my point that you have to be ready as you develop your character to engage and destroy HAV as they emerge on the map, that however means you either need to be able to deploy your own HAV (MLT require no skills to use) or your own AV, and that in order to win you will need to use those assets.
If you choose to sit back as pure infantry with rifles then expect to be helpless against Tanks.

Yea this game is designed so that its really best that you're skilled into multiple roles. I learned that early this year and I've been playing for about two years. Trust me, it helps a great deal to have options in the dropsuit closet.

It's rather sad actually. The only ones who even bother putting up a fight are those with 20GJ Railguns attached.
I think it has more to do with tanks now need infantry support, which they should but have not in the recent past. As such many fair weather tankers that could simply run into a group of reds sit still and kill everyone with very little thought to positioning, tactics, or infantry support. This means tankers will now need to develop a meta again, and many of you will quit, but some of you will remain decent, and indeed get stronger. Bottom line tankers, get with your infantry, you are now vulnerable to 2 of anything, 2 swarms, 2 forges, 2 res, 1 jihad jeep, you can no longrr do it alone. |

Trust me, it helps a great deal to have options in the dropsuit closet. I'll qualify that in saying that you don't have to be good against everything but you need to be aware of your limits.
As a Logi, to me running into a heavy on my own is no less suicide than standing in front of a tank. But I can offer my direct or indirect support to those who can deal with that so they can get rid of them.
See a forge gunner not getting to focus on the enemy tank because of support infantry surpressing him? He'll probably appreciate you getting rid of those guys and kill the tank in return.
Be aware of your role and act accordingly. Do not expect to be able to handle every situation and learn to realize when it's time to back up. Also, squad up! That will get you farther than any amount of skillpoints.

Tankers are scrubs and rather easy to kill when "Smart Deploy" doesn't spawn you directly in-front of their blaster. I guess that just goes to show how skilled people really are when they don't have 80% resistance or god-mode Armor Repairers to carry them.
It's rather sad actually. The only ones who even bother putting up a fight are those with 20GJ Railguns attached. I think it has more to do with tanks now need infantry support, which they should but have not in the recent past. As such many fair weather tankers that could simply run into a group of reds sit still and kill everyone with very little thought to positioning, tactics, or infantry support. This means tankers will now need to develop a meta again, and many of you will quit, but some of you will remain decent, and indeed get stronger. Bottom line tankers, get with your infantry, you are now vulnerable to 2 of anything, 2 swarms, 2 forges, 2 res, 1 jihad jeep, you can no longrr do it alone.
Lets not even get started on resistances as they are far too low......as usual I am comparing them to EVE ships..... would you believe a T2 Assault Frigate named the Wolf has a 90% resistance to EM damage....without any modifications........ Amarr almost deal exclusively EM with some Thermal......
Consequently the Retribution has 87.5% Explosive Resistances.
Yet my HAV can't even amount to a measly 30% even with modules.
