My Madrugar cost 464,085 ISK. It comes with 1,200 shield and 4000 armor. I have it fitted with an 80 GJ Ion Cannon. The red berry on the other team has an installation. I has 2,000 shield and 10,000 armor and cost 0 ISK. It also 3 shots my Madrugar. I lose 464,085 ISK to a free installation that has more than double my HP... Hmmm, you hink we could dumb down he installations to 6,000-7,000 total HP? I'd rather not lose my expensive tank to free installations so often.

The hell with that! Now CCP has every excuse to stick it in AVers faces and amp tanks back up to their former rebalanced glory.
No excuse infantry. Now you have God mode installations. If you can't make use of those it is not the tanker's fault.

2500 Shields and 6030 Armour.
I also think it would be cool if turrets were indestructible but when their HP was gone they defaulted back to neutral and went into a 3-5 min reinforcement timer.

I don't know what Installation you are going against. Takes 4-5 shots from a Rail Turret to kill a Madrugar thats well fitted. Plus put a Proto Railgun and a Damage Mod on and the Turrets down before it can even turn to shoot back.

Bro it takes 3 shots to kill a Sica. Plus a while ago CCP said installations weren't meant for free points...although their daily missions say otherwise.

The only time I use armor tanks nowadays is if I know there's no AV, and i'm fighting a blaster Sica.
2nd of all, you didn't fit any plates? 4000 is the default armor HP. Without any modules, a basic railgun can 3 shot it (2 shot without shields).
3rd of all, installations should be a first priority when going into a match. I run in with my missile gunni, because it kills them in 4-4.5 volleys.
Also, memorize where the installations are. And always assume they'll start shooting at you (The AI is really buggy, but still dangerous). You never know if there's a random redberry waiting at the controls.

God mode installations?
This would only make sense if all that went on in your head is "MEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEME"
Don't worry, it seems to be the forum average these days. *pat*
If you have a built structure anchored in ground for defense.... OFCOURSE it will be better then a mobile platform which provides certain weaknesses and advantages to a static platform.
This is common sense.
Enter your mind? And Everything should bow before a tank... Even though it makes no sense what so ever...
Tanks problems is the same as every vehicle in the game currently... They are confused to what role they even do. What purpose is there to even use a Dropship? a Tank? A Lav? Now imagine a PC?
There is no complete concept in how vehicles even work in DUST, Or how they even fit in...

You cannot afford not to go near turrets as they have eyes over nearly half the map.

I bet he is the kind of tanker that blows up my LAV for those free points rather than shooting me who is trying to forge then drives off to kill non AVers lol

Or a vet tanker who has asked for a PVE mode forever.
Then complains about some NPC turrets they have to fight each round to access parts of the map they want to go. |

I love getting harassed by keyboard warriors. Keep on typing for the good of your ego! You must be really good at this game if I would rather shoot a non-Aver than a FG (or you aren't a threat). I know it's hard to understand, but Tanks take skill points to use, therefore I expect balancing for AV/Vehicles/etc. like the rest of the stuff in the game. I do not wish my tank was the most OP thing in the game. I just wish FREE installations were a bit less powerful.

An undamaged Madrugar takes around 4 shots with a Railgun to kill that is unless they don't have a Armor hardener or anything equipped, 3 for a Sica. Keep your distance and use some CAUTION (its a hard concept for tankers to understand) and they won't get a hit on you. I've seen Prototype Railgun Gunnlogis with a damage mod rip through Installations like its no ones business. And I've used a Sica with a Militia Railgun and killed Installations also pretty easily not as quickly but still not a single hit on me.

They've been able to since 1919. Now, not a day goes by that I can't look up in the sky and see one going by.

Who would have guessed a stationary turret with no mods and just a bit or armor repair but 12k Armor (weak to Rail Guns, Missiles) is able to so easily kill a Madrugar with mods and the ability to move behind cover piloted of course by a dedicated tanker.

I say decreased hp on installations is fine, on ONE condition.. We are finally able to deploy them from off-map support... Or where ever they fall out of the sky from.. Until then, they are fine.. Always in the same spot, not usually a threat, and pretty easy to kill with the right weapon. And once they are gone, they stay gone. What do you think those installations are there for? To destroy vehicles maybe?! So you got killed by something that's made to kill you? O.o
Just be glad they don't randomly shoot at you when they are empty and have almost unlimited range like they used to. Wanna hear some real bull? My friend and I were in his ~500,000 ISK tank just this morning, killed tanks, some installations, a derp ship, then went to supply depot to recall it and change suits.. Almost got there when we both committed suicide because the tank just fell through the map and instantly turned to ashes.. We thought it was funny as hell. Moral of the story? It's a game, quit crying about it.. I'm gonna love the tears of tankers if we are ever able to drop our own installations. |

Yeah, sure, the original boost was ridiculous anyway. Although, I'd prefer that tanks be looked at instead. My Forge is tired of popping tanks easily.
