That's
- 1,228,000 ISK of Hull - 981,000 ISK worth of main gun - 300,000 ISK worth of Modules - 6000 Armour - Real Customisation - Freaking Damage Controls - Active Repair Units ......oh how I miss those.....
I miss forking out ISK and pimping my HAV for it to be destroyed 60 seconds later by a Tower Forger or a Swarmer I couldn't even see......but at least HAV felt good to drive......

Haha, when we named our tanks because each one was generally unique in some way, almost.
When dying was a total ***** because it'd take two matches just to earn it back and even then, you may lose another.
Now its tank spam........so much win, I love how tonka they feel, not.

I miss the days when tanks required skill even if it came with buffed AV I would still like to have 1.6 back. RIP Active Module timing RIP Spider tanking RIP ISK investment RIP Teamwork

Tanks right now a broken mess of boring ass casualised mechanics, simplified with the intent to balance, which only served to break them more.....and now that they are where they are we have HAV that are so goddamn pointless, difficult to fit (with half the slots and module options), and awkwardly frustrating in the sense they don't reward player skill.......

Half the time tanks couldnt get away fast enough even if they had a planned escape route AV just did that much damage that fast and a tank cost a mill easy. Now there are tanks cheaper than my dropsuit! |

Been doing that for months now.
Petitioned for Factional Vehicle Art.
Petitioned for Min and Amarr Vehicles.
Petitioned for Old Modules and Vehicles.
Petitioned for Placeholder Models.
I'm done petitioning CCP for something they should have put in their game 6 months ago.

Now its tank spam........so much win, I love how tonka they feel, not. TWO matches?! Are you CRAZY!? More like TEN matches at 250k ISK each.
God, if it only took two matches to cover the cost of a Falchion plus large proto accelerated missiles plus additional costs... 1.6 would've been the best time of my life (in Dust... I got way more exciting things going on IRL)

While I agree that tanks are to generalised nowadays, at least the blasters aren't like that anymore.

Remember when vehicles were fun to take down because you knew the pilot made an investment and can't just bring in another one for the same price of your dropsuit that he destroyed 5 times?
Pepperidge farm remembers.
Now you work your ass off to take down an HAV (If the pilot is good), and he can just bring in another one for chump change.

reminds me of my surya.
also this was the name of the fit.
and heres what it had.(complex represents the highest and best module of that type)
blaster damage amplifer complex nitrous injection complex active scanner
complex 180mm plate. (honestly why were these removed?) complex damage control 2x complex armour hardners complex heavy armour repair
scattered ion cannon 2x XT cycled missiles. (befor they became a burst weapon.) their 0.8 refire rate was ridiculos.
skills: all fck maxed. (excluding lrge rails/missiles. smll blasters/rails.)
all up the marauder skill alone provided 25% blaster damage. then top on an extra 25% from damge damge mod.
honestly who the fck wouldn't want this tank around......it only cost me somewhere between 2.5-2.8 mill isk to run.

Yeah back then I had a Heavy Shield Transporter on my Neutron Blaster Gunnlogi. Just when I became the most helpful blueberry ever, they made tanks cheap and simple.
I don't tank much anymore. AV doesn't terrify me, losing my tank doesn't scare me. It's just not fun anymore, custimization is so limited.

I miss Closed Beta tanking and the fact that each fit was expensive and different. Now we have all these cookie cutter builds and not anywhere near enough modules to make something unique.

Tanks nowadays, maybe not as fun as earlier because of lessened options.
BUT
The balance is now okay and there's still good gameplay. And they can still kill dozens.
FACT: The current balance is best yet AND having reached that state finally gives options to create diversity - whenever CCP will have time/resources.
People would enjoy Dust a lot more if they accepted the fact that EVERYTHING is subject to change

The main problem with this model in DUST is that it pinned tankers vs infantry.
Tank battles where far and few inbetween. When tankers knew there was a better tanker on the field they just didnt bother even calling one in.. or would go back to the red line and recall. Tank on tank fights when 3-5 mil is about to be poped just rarely happened.
And created an entire gameplay dynamic in DUST 514 where it was Tanks vs infantry.
Tankers have never really had their role defined by CCP. Have never really been given purpose in DUST 514 as we have it today. They where designed for Skirmish 1.0.
Now in this game mode, Turret structures and bases are extremely hard to push, and take coordinated attacks to even penetrate passed those areas. As it is right now? Turret structures are a joke and a tank can roam nearly anywhere with impunity.
There really has been no forward thought by CCP asking the question "What are tankers actually for in DUST 514, What will be their core gameplay" Tanks as it is right now are just roaming slayers.
-Turret structures need to be made relevant in DUST 514. We need turret structures with like 10x more health. A.I. against vehicles extremely high. And war point gain increased for their destruction, War points handed out(1-5 WP each tick) For repairing Turret structures. And a remap on where Turret structures are even placed.
This way, bases and entrenched enemy positions and turrets create checkpoints that have to be dealt with before you can progress your teams positions.
A Tanker should always have something to shoot at and an entire gameplay and function on the battlefield defined. Right now Tankers are confused on what to even do on the battlefield but look for easy kills, it's created extremely stale and boring gameplay around tanking. |
