You asked for tanks to be nerfed cause you were too lazy to get off your ***, pick up a forge or swarm launcher, and kill us. No, instead you went on the forums and cried like a bunch of b*tches, now my 15 mil SP I have into tanks is completely f*cked. It's not that I'm a sh*t tanker, cause even the best tanker in the game can't kill a forger 20 meters in front of him cause the dispersion is soo bad.
That is the problem. No matter how skilled you are, or how much SP you have, there is no way to kill anything more than 10 meters away from you. The ONLY place tanks have in PC anymore is as counter tanks.
Imagine you fired your gun directly at someones head and it went literally everywhere except your target.
Tanking: officially the least fun role.
I'm actually all cool with being an AV platform. I personally think that's primarily what HAV should be.
The Highest tier and most powerful AV units on the battlefield.
That's why I would like to think that all forms of vehicle would be encouraged to be placed on the field to that Tanks can become a viable and regular play style.
Not only this but I would like to think in Legion Tanks could have a designated role and or certain actions they can perform to aid in the combat so that their inclusion in battles is more tactical the power based.
Issue is though that Hakyou is right. HAV operation is not enjoyable. Rails have arbitrary range restictions that do not make sense, combat is relegated to shot range brawls with no long range options, vehicles have constant fast regeneration encouraging a hit, run, and regen rather than longer battles and tactical module use. Additionally modules and fittings have be dumbed down so much there are so few viable tank builds or options for combat vehicles.....
I have no issue with Tanks being unable to directly and easily engage infantry with their large turrets I think that is great and makes incentive for tankers to fit and use secondarly light turret gunners, or to run with squads for protection. That In my mind is how it should be.
Personally I'd be all for tanks having greater HP but less regen, or slower regen.
