"You are the biggest **** in dust"
After I rolled a guys double extender single hardened railgun gunnlogi with my missile tank. I will admit, that can be quite the feat, considering it took more volleys to down him than it does to down those pesky installations.

They actually aren't too bad. I think a big part of it is that redesigned AI. They usually don't start shooting unless they are manned or I shoot first. I had expected them to be a lot worse than they are. Infantry work a lot harder to secure / keep them secured so I don't have to worry much about them.
I still take them out if I think they are useless to the team or a potential problem for myself. 2 missile volleys does the trick nicely. But for the most part they are fairly easy to work around, and it's very nice that I'm not getting hit from halfway across the map by a redline missile turret.

I get mad at instils but only when some scrub with no gungame sits on them for the entire match. You shouldnt be able to automatically leave one when your using it just like you shouldn't be able to teleport out of your tank just before it explodes. Vehicles and instils at least need an enter/exit wait time.
Why?

Well, on an install they do leave themselves open to attack. I've gunned down more than a few trying to use them.

Thanks for the response. o7 Have noticed the same (especially in Ambush). Infantry fight pretty hard over installations now :-)
Oh yeah they do, those blaster installs are DEADLY to infantry. Much like the large blaster on a tank is now.

Install's are only an issue now if they are being controlled by someone, which is how it should've always been.
So far my favorite hatemail has been:
You ******* hacking piece of **** dis is y no1 liks tnks (how she/he wrote it)
my reply:
7900 wp FTW :0
A majority of hatemails are far to vulgar to mention though, however my honerable mention for this list has to be JK420's message to me after leaving DDB. I'm sure glad that my old pal forwarded me a nice mail about me from JK... Too bad this old friend changed :/
Him and me were a near unstoppable force when it came to tanking we dropped over 4K WP in PC's a lot together
I Like Tanks, Nova Knives and MagSec SMG's.

Yes, back when any noob could jump in a tank and 2 shot everything. Tanking was broken back then and not a determination of "skill" !
But in any case, I sent back to the guy "Thx for the compliment"
And are you talking about Nate? He was in that match with me, me and him were rolling everything.

I did the math it takes 8 hardeners to get a 12k armor so who is the scrub?
Why?

the new installations do seem to be a helluva lot more of a deterrant to tanks nowdays and infantry are crowding round them a little more which is nice to see. before they were just a quick 100points to a forge gunners, as was said though the AI still needs a bit tweaking so a blue turret automatically starts shooting a red vehicle. be nice if there was a way for squad leads to designate a target the turret targetting as a priority

Yes but you should also enter turrets like a vehicle.too...
If Preparation is half of the battle and knowing is the other half, Then there is no need to fight.

Been in a squad where one of the squadmates got hatemail from someone saying "You are a Jlzz drizzle tw*t-waffle" Sounds like something that should be on a menu in an ice cream shop.
Minmatar suits as a car chassis, Gallente suits for the plates, Caldari suits for shield, and Amarr suits for the seats.
