I would like to know when you guys plan on removing tanks from the game completely because all you seem to be doing is making tanking verses infantry worse. Please stop trying to make large turrets vehicle only defensive and offensive measures unless you plan to make small turrets on Havs exponentally better. Splash damage is needed for large railguns and blasters if you are trying to kill swarmers and forge gunners these people move around its hard enough as it is to kill infantry with large rails than itbhas ever been in dust history. Blasters also need splash damage please stop listening to players who dont have any experience.
Meaningful changers that need to be made are the reduction of fitting costs for Mcru scanners missile turrets large and small. Keep everything above except removing slash damage. Also do not reduce the fire rate of small railguns turrets just reduce the fire rate of hybrid turrets on ADS. These things are a serious problem on the incubus tanks dropships and lavs are melting when they come in contact with a maxed out Incubus and the R is literally no escape from them.
If you are having problems with AV infantry, then maybe try fitting small turrets, even with a dedicated gunner or ask teammates to help, get a direct hit with blaster, rail or blaster, or flee.
Reduction of fitting costs for the mcru, and maybe missile turrets, is something we will consider in the future.
