 *take a breath*
 Hello everyone, may I ask you something?
 
 Would you all please be so nice that you NEVER AGAIN USE RL THINGS WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT DUST?
 
 I keep hearing stupid things like:
 "a minigun in rl destroys everything"
 "a tank in rl is unkillable"
 
 We dont give a duck about rl things, we are bilancing a game, it has nothing to do with real life.
 
 Thank you.

 That depends currently Rattati is talking about Tank in a thread and the roles they might have...... well the days where tanks had roles is long since passed.
 
 The time when specific armoured vehicles had roles was last century such as the Mobile Anti Aircraft Gun, the Light and Medium Cruiser Tanks, Tank Destroyers, and Heavy Infantry Tanks.....
 
 In order to explain what that means real world examples must be provided.
 
 For example the Marauder is more of less what a PzKpfw VI .H or a KV-85 was. Big, slow, and hard to knock out.
 The Enforcer is what a Jagdtiger or ISU-122 was. A large gun mounted on a self propelled hull.
 
 Etc.
 
 In many respects I understand what you mean when you say this. It is not real world mechanics that are being applied here......but in order to determine roles, functions, etc we may draw from what we know.

 It does matter for comparative purposes. For instance, how should a weapon work vs. the situations presented in the game etc. and due to RL being a basis for the things in game.
 
 Just FYI, in RL a nerf hammer completely obliterates everything in a 3 mile radius.

 Tanks in real life are far from un-killable.
 
 That aside, I believe that RL situations does need to be applied to certain areas (ie, we should still be affected by gravity) but at the same time using RL situations to guage how powerful an item should be is terrible.

 I doubt there has ever been a conflict in history where more Tanks have been lost than infantrymen....... anything and everything will kill a person. I also doubt that there's ever been a conflict in history were more Tanks were used than Infantry.

 Tanks are on the endangered military list of platforms thanks to high precision missiles and how penetrators and armor defeaters are quickly outpacing tank defenses.

 1. People can't carry a Minigun and fire them and have full use of their arms afterwards. It was considered a feat when someone fired a .50 Caliber Machine Gun in WW2 unassisted.
 
 2. Tanks are fully destructible.

 The point is balancing should not be based on real life. Why? Because this is a relatively competitive game where we need not be bothered by such unpleasantries as RL 40 yrd shotguns, and instant permanent death.
 
 Sure we can base roles and functions off of real life things, but that in no way constitutes reasoning to go copying how things are in real life to a video game.

 and you're right Balance numbers specifically should not be diverted from IRL.
 
 Battle relationships on how a game attempting to simulate a battlefield in a 400year post dysprosia era should be based on logical sensing of known best solution battle works.
 
 For example history has immensely proven over and over and over again that tanks without infantry support get slaughtered.
 
 Dust 514 has held up to this rather well in some aspects. Solo tanks are dealt with in a laughing manner usually save for the shield tanking HAVs lately.

 Israel was *THAT* close to using its nuclear arsenal.
 I'm not joking, we had nuclear warheads being armed and prepared to launch at any moment.
 That's how close it was to destruction.
 
 We basically told the US "Either you send military supplies our way so that we don't crumble, or we will use this last resort".
 Suddenly, dozens of cargo airplanes are on their way here with supplies.
