SCENCERO.
1 FORGE GUNNER ON TABLE TOP. and 1 you know what nvm 3 TANKS ON AN OBJECTIVE. who wins? well the forge gunner of course. because our blasters cant hit effectively past 20meters. We could all be shooting at him at once with ion cannons and he could just poke in and out and get his 1900-2500 damage his in every 3-4 seconds.
Now you say oh well your team can just go up there and shoot him.
WHAT ARE YOU KIDDING ME. JUST CLIMB UP LADDERS TO BE SNIPED OR SHOT UP/DOWN AT? In every game it is a basic princble climbing ladders gets you killed in a second. AV IS ALWAYS UNREACHABLE AND UNTOUCHABLE.
But tanks/ads? oh well we only take on average 3000 damage every god damn second. THE FACT OF THE MATTER IS I TIRED OF BEING SPECED INTO SOMTHING THAT HAS ZERO PLACE IN PUBS.
Now in PC its different first of all you have guys that know how to kill sky scrapper forges and YOU CANT EXACTLY HAVE 6 GUYS ON A TABLE TOP EXPECT TO BE ABLE TO KEEP DISTRICTS.
So calling in your own tankers to help defend a point and kill others is kind of a must. If I could play nothing but PC all day trust me I would.
OHH AND LETS NOT FORGET HOW EFFECTIVE IT CAN BE TO SHOOT DOWN ON INFANTRY WITH FORGE GUNS. I cannot tell you how many 50 clone ambushes I have gone into and seen 3-4 forge guns out and ask myself WHY THE **** ARE WE LOSING.
Oh well its because my team is is incapable of dealing with forge guns. it does only take two splash damage rounds to kill any miltia starter fit BTW.
Lets not forget how small the forge gun cross hairs are compared to what they used to be. I remember challaengeing my self to kill people with the milta forge gun and it was nerly impossible because of the width of the cross hairs AS IT SHOULD BE.
NO AV IN ANY GAME SHOULD DROP INFANTRY LIKE ITS EASY **** TO DO. NO AV SHOULD EVERY BE TURENED ON INFANTRY EVER.
If you want to come in and kill vehicles that's what you do. With nothing but a sidearm to back you up. commandos are the only exception.
I was astonished at the amount of kills the forge gun event winner got. wasn't it like 1700? YOU MEAN TO TELL ME YOU CAN DROP 1700 PEOPLE IN 3 DAYS WITH A GUN MADE TO BE A VEHICLE KILLER?
So that is ******* it. take vehicles off the game and respect all the tankers and ads pilots so we can go be proto stompers. The **** is getting old.
And what you is going to be your valid argument? "OH WHAT TANKS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE THE KING OF THE MAP?!?!?"
YES YOU DUMB ***** IF YOUR ASS DOES NOT WANT TO CALL OUT ANY TANKS.
I remember back when not calling out any vehicle support of your own was like the entire team leaving battle all as once.
CERTAIN DEFEAT. that's how it should always be.
SO **** YOUR FORGE GUN ON A SKYSCRAPPER ASS AND "OH IF THEY GET A DROPSHIP TO COME TAKE ME OUT IM GOING TO 2 SHOT IT LOOOOL" HEAD AS S

Sooo keep warming our hearts with laughter. Nothing is fine if one section of the community has to keep having it nerfed. A single nerf would be fine, but since it keeps getting nerfed, that tells me the problem lies in the people having it nerfed, not in the item being nerfed.

Clicked on post, expecting to see crying about OP vehicles. Instead, got crying vehicles weren't OP enough.
Anyways, either way, answer is no. Love vehicles. Particularly, love watching them go boom. :)

I tried reading this and gave up somewhere around the third line of "yelling". No, tanks and vehicles should stay. Don't like it? Tough. In fact, we actually want the previous vehicle variations to come back. I'll be back to collect your tears when (if) that happens. |

Ban this character to idgaf. If you run a tank then you must have infantry support. Your blaster turret was never made to kill infantry according to ccp, much less sniper forge gunners off of rofftops. Your tank can no longer roll yolo solo with your nuts hanging out as you please. You must have infantry support and you must mkve and work with them. As for climbing ladders I do it all the time.

Why all the bitchn about forge gunners? If a forger is giving me troubles, guess what I do? First, I don't whine like a ***** about it. Second, I get in my heavy suit and call in a MILITIA DS with afterburners and hardeners. I fly up to him, jump out, mow his ass down with a boundless. PROBLEM SOLVED Stop complaining about things in this game. If you have troubles, deal with it. Don't just sit back and ***** about it.

I have no objection to removing dropships at all. They are literally the only thing in the game you can't destroy because they can fly higher than the range on any gun which could destroy them. The number of times I've seen a dropship fly up to get away from a forge gunner because they're about to be destroyed is ridiculous. I'd love to be able to do that in a tank (or a dropsuit...!) |

The OP has realized that AV players have innate advantages that vehicles cannot replicate, such as hiding small spaces, or getting up on high places (sans dropship in this instance). Players that do this are doing AV the proper way, and since it is difficult to counter these tactics in a vehicle without infantry support, Broken Keyboard Man feels that it is overpowered. |

LOOOOL your post is so super trolly its funny. On a serious note if you see one tanker with a blaster why in the hells would you bring out another blaster tank? If you are going to have more than one tank on the field then you should have 1 of each. blaster for close up infantry. rails to combat vehicles and those nasty forge gunners (assuming you are a fairly accurate shot) and a missile tank for those annoying buzzing ads and vehicles. Do this and its a sure win for your team (assuming you coordinate attacks instead of run and gunning like some COD noob). With that being said i have seen plenty of tanks dominate the field to a point of absolute insanity. Where forges where nothing more than a nuisance and the tanks were just running down everything in their path. Its just really a matter of how well your team plays and works together. So i cant agree with you on removing the vehicles (although believe me i cant stand the sight of tank spam any longer).

if the Dropship never goes down, then I would have infinite isk the pure amount of bs that kills an ADS outweighs the fact that your singe suit cannot tackle a vehicle 100% of the time.

I don't try to take on dropships. I have watched 3 people try before, and the pilot just took the ship out of range whenever it was about to get taken out.
I've seen dropships last a whole match using that tactic.
Tanks going over the redline is totally different- if they're near the enemy redline, and are about to die, they have to find a way to hide from whoever is shooting at them. A dropship can just fly upwards, no matter what their position on the map is. |

Snipers... the bane of an elevated forge gun... or as someone pointed out a dropship party... or if all else fails an Orbital. This is of course assuming you can't climb a ladder to them. If you are getting killed just trying to climb the ladder you need to have team support. If you don't have team support, welcome to pubs, where more than likely your winning or losing will have little to do with you and everything to do with the 10 privates that flunked battle academy.

This is dumb, remove all vehicles;
I run in a squad that most the time runs with vehicle support, or a vehicle squad that has ground support. The vehicle war is somewhat returning to a pre 1.7 state,and its good. Back then if I ran my tanks solo, it would get ugly quick. When I had a great squad, capable gunners who know that the over head map is one of their duties, a sniper to counter rooftop AV, ground infantry to take out the other av, as the tanker my job was to stop enemy vehicles from having an impact, and offer temporary area denial, or spear head breaches on points.( Hard to stop the heavies getting in close when Level 5 Vayu with active heat sync has you tucked behind crates and what nots hiding).
Fast forward to today, our squad has a usually has a ADS, deathLAV or a good tank running with us, using anywhere from 1-3 people, leaving 3-5 of us to run and gun on the ground. We can call for support and there it comes,missiles raining down from the sky, small rail gun chopping folks down at range etc etc. This helps. What also helps is the fact usually one of the gunners has a hacksuit, giving my squad the ability to take CRUs and objectives very quickly, which can change a battle, as can having a scout airlifted into a point, this is an instant attack with gunship help that is hard to defend.
AV, it is our job as ground support to remove the AV where we can. sometimes hunting down and shotgunning down a few swarmers, other times being dropped on a tower with a HMG.
A good squad with vehicles can not only help win a game, but can completely dominate a game.Last night on average my squad was pulling 2-3 orbitals, WP WP WP.
Give me my scrambler pistol back....**
