Except for the very few aggressive snipers that can manage 30+ kills some how from a point of relative safety their all pretty useless. Most get 5-10 kills by the end of the match and maybe 500+ Wp if you factor in kill assist. You can do better than that with a frontline starter fit. Sure your KD won't be as good but very few matches come down to clones any ways so going 10/10 with a starter fit does more for your team than some sniper. After all your at least drawing enemy fire and making them waste bullets and time to kill you.

Problem I feel is that there is no real way to kill these guys. (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.
Oh yes their quite hard to kill, unless your able to save up a major laser strike just to kill them. Which while satisfying is generally a waste and won't help your team win. Suicide drop ship crashes might take some out, especially if you slap on some remotes like a LAV. If you can get there without being blown up of course and can ram a ground object accurately. Look at the bright side range of a rail gun isn't that great and most maps the red line is to far from the action to be much of a threat.
Good proto tanks in general are a pain. Not that you can't kill them but it takes 2-3 guys to do so and a dedicated effort to kill that one guy. It would be better if tanks required crews to operate so it would be an even use of resources. But at least you can easily see a tank on the map. Thale snipers can be 450m+ away and good luck at finding them before they blow your head off.

It's because they can't play the game like a normal person, if they suck, how do you expect them to get kills and not die a whole bunch?
lol @ fake KDR :P
I'd hardly call tanks the cheapest way to get kills. Militia scout suit with a militia shotgun is pretty great at getting kills with no money or SP invested into it. For little more bang for your buck add in at least one point into demolitions to get remote explosives and your killing like a boss for next to nothing. While a tanker might spend what 30 mil Sp to get to proto level?
Those free Serpent scout suits really showed how people with no SP can kill like a beast with a shotgun and some remotes lol.

It's not a great view with a very narrow range of fire but I know for a fact you can often take out installations from one red line to the other. 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.

Maybe they should change they're play style?  Last guy who tried that got killed, I stole his proto HAV, destroyed the counter HAV, and then lost his original one costing him roughly 2.5 Million ISK for one FW battle. We lost but I felt like I'd won.
I always love car jacking people, be it DS, Tanks or LAV's. Used to have a lot of fun with my hacking cloaking suit doing that. Best moment ever was hacked a guys car and ran him over with it while he got out to hack a turret. His tears were priceless. I do wish they'd do something about hacking vehicles though. It's a hard thing to do. The hack is pretty long, you get no WP for it and if you keep it alive any points for things like the CRU go to the owner of the vehicle far as I know. Worst of all if it survives till the end of the match they get it back.
Frankly if you hack a vehicle you should have the option to recall it to keep it or if it survives till the end you get it automatically as salvage.
