(Other than a Pin point accurate group of 5-6 Proto Breach FG all damage modded to the max Aiming and Shooting all in unison) Get one shot off and they will just sneak back behind the mountain they are on. Which is a great disadvantage for my team seeing as how our team cannot bring any more vehicles onto the field without being slapped in the face by these ***** cats. First, there is no map in the game where you can shoot from your own redline into the enemies, so there is nothing stopping your team from calling in tanks. Second, on most maps(Ashland is an exception) a redline tanker can only cover a single flag, so they will have no outcome on the result of the battle. Third, chasing a tanker that doesn't impact your odds of winning in the hopes of some WP is not terribly bright. Why not just let him hang out up there, stay 300 m away, and let him bore himself to death shooting installations? A redline tanker is not a disadvantage for you team, it is a benefit, the guy won't be helpful to his team, won't come out to play, be happy that it is 16 v 15. The Attorney General - Mr. Hybrid Vayu

I see two proto tanks fitted with the Rail just sat in their redline for the majority of the game... Sickening better than the game I had earlier, 3 tanks literally sitting on top of each on the bridge map, backed up by TWO turret campers and TWO snipers. game is full of cowards If it was a domination it sounds like they were playing to win while you were busy crying about e-bushido.

Not even kidding Which map? Boulder Rim? Nope Fracture Road? Nope Boarder Gulch? Nope Skim Junction? Nope Impact Ridge? Nope Spine Crescent? Nope Line Harvest? Nope Iron Delta? Nope Ashland, the tanks don't have the range to reach from redline to redline, but it is pretty close. Manus is the only one where there is a chance of that happening, but because the lower side can spawn behind the hill, it isn't practical. So yeah, you are kidding, or you have never driven a rail tank. The Attorney General - Mr. Hybrid Vayu

A few Dom/Aqu maps you can hope into a rail turret within your red line and take out a few turrets in the enemies. It's the easiest way I get the kill XXX installation missions when I have to. It is however very close to the edge of your red line, close enough enemy scouts and such can easily run in and kill you and get back out. So not the 100m+ red line that people feel truly safe in. I'll admit that I haven't played much dom lately, but can you please post the map that you think this happens on, would make it better for discussion purposes. https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=180950&find=unread Go there for the map images.

[/quote Nah that's the Gallente facility I'm talking about the newer Caldari facility The socket doesn't change the redline. Don't look at the large socket, it can always change. The underlying map is what determines the redlines. The Attorney General - Mr. Hybrid Vayu

Boulder rim is one I haven't played dom on that map in a long time, but in both cases you have safe spawn locations in the back of the redline. Heck, the most likely place to shoot from, the H 10, H 11 area, you can't even call in a tank in the redline there, you have to come out onto the road. And even then, you still have to come out of the redline to get sights on the enemy redline turrets. Does the redline on the lower portion come up as far as the H line on the map? I thought it only came up to the I line there, which would put the E line out of reach. Could be wrong though. The Attorney General - Mr. Hybrid Vayu

Manus peak is also one Spine crescent is the one I was talking about in the thread. Redline tankers where at point D8(closer to C8) and were able to hit all the way to F7. I sometimes even see people from point E9(still redline) hit past the objective. The other maps are a bit better, but the list is missing this one map. One of the newest maps and in that map you are able to sit real far back into your redline and snipe the objective... If you get up close to the edge of the redline in some parts you might even be able to hit the other team redline. Wait a minute, you can't change the terms at this point. The original claim was that you could shoot from redline to redline, and now its redline to objective? Not cool bro. The Attorney General - Mr. Hybrid Vayu
