But what pilots want doesn't matter. All CCP cares about is making sure infantry is comfortable.

They were only "super tanks" because nobody took our advice on how to destroy us. Funny though, I notice those whose first language isn't English, that probably don't visit this language's forums, have zero problem beating me back into my redline. Why? Because they don't care about taking out AV to destroy me. A pair of forge guns, a pair of swarms, and 2 guys putting down proxies and/or REs. Why? Because they'll do anything to win.

Yes because being near immune to all small arms fire with the only things able to kill you being one of three AV weapons which have limited use against infantry, a tank that can barely aim up, or installation turrets with a massive blindspot and short range clearly indicates that infantry have an easy job killing ADS.
Ever seen video of Taliban firing their rifles at an Abrams tank? You know what happens? Absolutely nothing, as has happened since the beginning of tank warfare in WWI. That's exactly how it should be.

That's exactly how it should be. You are immune to a vast majority of the weapons in the game and yet you whine and moan when the only AV weapons that can kill you have a VERY SLOW charge/lock succeed. And besides we are talking about ADS not tanks
Slow charge, eh? IAFG has base 3 second charge, which is reduced by the passive skill bonus. Swarms have 1.4 second (much shorter than the forge, also fire and forget) lock on timer, which is reduced by the passive skill bonus.
Can you honestly give me a rational argument as to why a rifle should be a serious threat to a vehicle?

Aside from 4 people shooting AV at you or another tank you were invulnerable so please stop talking ****. I put down 12 proxies and watched a tank roll over them. So what did I do wrong? Also no one has a problem pushing you back to the redline cos you just sit in it.
Oh yeah, you know me so well that I camp the redline every game with a railgun.
Also, 12 proxies? Didn't they have their damage increased? Let's go with their base of 750, because I don't have the game on. 750 x 12 = 9000 damage. I think I just shut that down right there. Don't forget, it's explosive, so it does increased damage against armor.

Delta just dropped, Swarms vs. ADS is the thing of the minute. After a few matches, I was indeed seeing a lot of new snipers trying the rifle. I literally took two guys off the same rooftop twice each, but I couldn't see their uplink from my vantage point, so when one of them came in a third time, I popped him again. I saw them in the killfeed with the STD rifle and the NT-511 respectively. Just like Swarms, a lot of people are trying it because it's newly buffed. They'll find that sniping isn't so easy and they'll go back to being regular infantry whining about snipers.
All these new swarmers will find themselves still ineffective alone without Wyrkomis on a Minmandong, and pilots will find that they're not facing 7 swarmers at once anymore and they'll still be largely immortal as they can still GTFO with near impunity, they just have to wait longer before coming back.
Really now? The third volley is guaranteed to hit, unless there's people on the ground to witness the first volley leaving to tell the pilot to GTFO. Swarms are still invisible at least half the time, you don't hear them approaching sometimes, and rendering is still abysmal, giving AV infantry a huge advantage.

Infantry did a while back. So, I'm waiting for an answer. You're complaining that the only threats to vehicles are AV weapons. What would you like rifles to do to vehicles?

I don't know where you THINK you saw this, but go back and read it again, because I don't think it says what you think it does. NEVER have I seen ANYONE say that a rifle should be a threat to a vehicle. EVER.
Considering you only have 43 likes, you haven't been here long. Read what I said again. Infantry did a while back. If you haven't been lurking for at least a year, you wouldn't've seen it.
