I look at it this way:
If I think a particular tank is being a nuisance I switch to my AV load-out until the tank either pops or its driver decides to run away like the sissy he is (he's the one bringing 300k ISK of armor and guns to a fight against 10k dropsuits). If he thinks I'm being a nuisance he always has the option to switch to his anti-infantry load-out and come after me. So there's always balance for anyone looking for balance. Just don't expect you scissor to beat both rock and paper.

Actually, now that I looked, we have no idea how much they do. I mistook them for the non standard AV grenade, which DO make in excess of 2k HP damage per blast.

But the RE damage is not stated. Anywhere.

What they DO have though, is a 500 meter blast radius.

FIVE HUNDRED METERS??????

You know what Jak? Calling tank driver sissies for doing the only thing they can to save their tank, go for cover, is not constructive. And who's the sissy for not being ballsy enough to actually take a risk?

Let me guess. you are also one of those A******* who then turn arousd calling tank drivers idiots for just "sitting there, dying"?

Never mind. I've given up pleasing idiots.

Because hiding in 17k of hp with the ability to regen like 5k is what people with balls do. Take a 100K assault/logi loadout girl, that's a risk. Because any tank can 1-2 shot me. But Helmar help you if you ever leave your tank ;)

(I don't mean this post to come across sexist, we all know Jenza has mad balls lol)

Every time I jump in a tank I think to myself "wait a minute I can run faster then this'. Then I jump out.

I will let the people with no gun game sit in the tanks.

I drive a Surya. it does NOT have 17k EHP. Neither does the Sagaris, unless it fits every ounce of CPU and power on shield tanking, with very little left for guns.

I think my EHP is a little under 10k actually. And if I don't manade to coax my armour repairer to work in time, a Proto Forge Gun will kill it is three shots (one did today) The armour repairer activation glitched. Again.

Its more like 5.

1 RE is near 1000 damage. I have seen heavies survive 1 before. Barely, but still alive. Guy was speced into armor and Shields cause most heavies die from the RE.

Would like to know the specific damage tho lol.

And yea petree I usually go 30-1 with my creo, don't dirty myself with easy OHK vehicles. (nothing against dust, I don't like the vehicles in starhawk either cause they are lol OHK on infantry vehicles too)

Not that I don't think they have a place in the game, just don't ask me to drive or be your gunner. I feel i'm more useful running around with a gun.

Anyone else just feel like a waste in a vehicle?

Everybody plays a role.

If yours is better as a foot mobile, then kudos to you.

You will be an asset to whom ever you decide to align yourself with.


I however quite enjoy driving vehicles, in any game, so I will definitely concentrate my efforts on tanks and other vehicles.
I enjoy being a force multiplier in a right situation

Also tank reverse needs it's X axis reversed.

You should play this instead of dust.

Why ? He has every right to be here as you do.... New Eden will not and should not discriminate against any playstyle be it Infantry , Tank , AV trooper, or Starship Captain . This is universal war and we will use EVERYTHING in our disposal to win the war . Want simple death match go play in the tourney's when they come out .

It's a little depressing how much more SP I get gunning for tanks than running around using the skills I've trained up.

I was hit with a crazy bad case of lag last night and had to ride it out in a tank turret. Ended up being my best game of the evening.

Now I'm thinking they need to tweak the kill assist system for vehicle passengers. Why should the turrets get +25 for every kill the driver makes? I think it should be +25 to the driver for everything his crew does, and +15 for the crew's "assists".

Thanks Carlos.

I had a dropship pilot yell at me the other day because I didn't want to gun for him. I told him I'm more useful running around with my AR then I would be flying as a gunner.

Dude responds "pffft good luck getting kills"

You should play world of tanks instead of dust.

That is why you will see me at the top of the rankings of the Arena Battles.

tanks are fine
l2p

While those of us that matter will be nowhere near arenas, instead choosing to take strategic wins over symbolic.

You really believe every single battle you play will be about territorial control or some type of EVE involvement?

SPACE IS SRS BIZNESS

This is our lives
