Hey, do you anti-tank guys (not av guys, there's a difference) who constantly want tanks to be nerfed even know what its like to tank? It's f*cking horrible.
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.

They've taken away: Marauders Enforcers Black Ops Compressed rail guns Regulated rail guns Compressed blaster Stabilized blasters Fragmented missile launchers Accelerated missile launchers Active heat sinks passive heat sinks Passive shield hardeners Passive armour hardeners Turret speed rotation mods (replaced with skills that don't work) Remote armour repairers Remote shield repairers Passive damage mods Passive shield rechargers 180mm armour plates One high slot and one low slot per hull
Did I miss anything?
So most of the variations of fittings are gone. Sigh. Pretty much this, it's not that it's not viable, there's just no variation and is no fun.

It's not that tanks aren't viable, they're not fun. Honestly, I had FAR more fun in tanks when the swarms were OP as f*ck, when they could 3 hit me.
At least then my blaster could shoot straight and I could kill a forger 20 feet in front of me, he couldn't just sit there and shoot all of his ammo in me while I struggled to get the unresponsive piece of junk out of the line of fire.

Nothing Certain wrote:I guess the OP needs to define "fun" before I can weigh in on his comment. The main example is that he can no longer just roll up on someone and instakill them. I am glad that is gone. True makes a different case and one that seems like a valid one, that tanking investment and skill has been diminished. How would you solve it withoit breaking the balance that we finally achieved? I wrote this in another thread:
Hakyou Brutor wrote:Make a skill for blaster dispersion: 5% less dispersion on blaster per level.
Scattered Blasters - Higher damage per shot at the cost of a higher dispersion.
Stabilized Blasters - Much less damage per shot with more range and far less dispersion, useful vs infantry.
Compressed Blasters - Very high damage per shot at the cost of a big RoF nerf.
Also, bring back heatsinks!

Difference..my tanks cost 3.2million ISK, crying about yur half mil **** tank, lose more in suits some matches Yet another person that simply can't read... I said least fun role, not least viable.
Heck, I don't even tank anymore, this thread is a few months old. I remember when tanks were expensive, and I'm fairly sure you're lying when you say 3.2 mil, I remember the max being about 2.8 mil.
You talk about pre-1.7 tanking as if I wasn't there... but yet all I did back in the day was tank, and it was 100 times more fun than it is now. |
