LOL Confirmation that Rattati doesn't actually play this game. What makes you say that? I've actually seen him in game, and on top of that, his statement isn't wrong. Don't like vehicles everywhere? Bring AV and kill it. then die and get back in your AI suit and kill more people. We all have (or had) a militia swarm suit handed to us when we started the game, it still works.
This would be OK if AV were effective against tanks, and they aren't.
You practically need a full squad working simultaneously for just one tank, and if you have multiples, or one to two mercs picking off easy AV pickings at the same time? You might as well quit the battle and find a different match.
That isn't balanced, that is broken.

You might as well quit the battle and find a different match. That isn't balanced, that is broken. I just solo'ed a Gunlogi with my STD swarms + STD AV nades today, no hives needed. HAV wasn't damaged, nor did the pilot get himself suck on nor run into any object. Granted that fit can't touch a double repped double hardened Maddy (those passive reps need to get changed to active IMO) but I kill and/or drive off vehicles all the time in my STD fit, and semi-frequently in my Minja Republic/APEX
There is the rub.
If one tank maddy can do that, why would anyone run anything else?
If you can use standard gear on another tank, and kill it, with a maddy being immune to practically anything, what do you expect to see more of on the field?
Tactics mean little when the odds are so unevenly stacked.
