When I join a game, and you ask if their are any tank drivers out there and I say I drive a Surya, don't call my tank slow and paper thin. Then argue that the blaster turret sucks and that I should not be using it as a turret when you don't even drive a Surya! Stop being rude. And don't even think about destroying that supply depot just because the enemy has it...

Look man... its gotta be frustrating but... the Surya blaster cannons just suck. At least put some missiles on there.
Before you go getting mad, I do have a Surya. Mine's equipped with mid-grade small missile turrets (skill lvl 4) and the low-grade large missile turret (skill lvl 1). I have a crap load of armor hardeners and repairs but the damage is relatively weak. I call on it when my team is stomping the enemy and they're so spread out I know they won't gang up on me.
Point of the story is just because you can afford an expensive tank, doesn't mean it's gonna be useful on the battlefield, especially when 50% of Heavy's are packing forge guns. The base model Surya doesn't stand a chance out there anymore. So if people get upset it's because you offered up a tank and they're expecting something that can hold its own against a group of enemies.
EDIT: Forgot to mention the fact that I'm a horrible driver also. I was always the guy asking for a tank driver... that's when you get the "I can drive a tank..." from f***ing Jimmy the Super Noob over there (hope that's not someone's real name ) and they go crashing your stuff into poles and trying to drive up mountains... learned that lesson quick! Just train your skills up and drop a $#!t-ton of SP on some better turrets/gear. You'll be all set

i dont feel i was being aggressive at all. your staring at a wall of text lol, you ahve no idea if im pulling this all out of my ass...
anyway, yes there are uses for each type of turret, but in this build, with the current stats(many turrets big and small are broken) the railgun will give you the best combat efficiency in common situations.
Ive taught quite a bit of tankers since i started testing now and not one has come to me with negative results...Im tryin to help bud |

it doesnt matter what you drive.....you can put anything on either one right now and if you are so early in your tanking skills that you only have the base turret then you shouldnt even have that tank out in the first place....tryin to save you guys money here....a lot of it. |

Well like I said, if you're using the Surya the wrong way, then he was right in telling you that you're wrong. I wasn't there so I can't evaluate exactly what you were doing with it, but he may have some merit to what he's saying.
Also, you're being a bit melodramatic, so expect flak from the forums...that's how these things work. |

Actually, blasters have the highest DPM of any of the large turrets. I am a stats wiz, I could go on and into detail if you want.
I've put 16 million sp into my surya. I wreck with it and its awesome. Don't know why you would say it doesn't.
Edit: Had to plug laptop in. The reason I posted this was because a guy asked why I used a blaster on my surya, I told him that it has higher damage output. Some other guy speaks up and starts ranting with profane words that what I was saying was BS. |

Mmk you stick to your way. I'll stick to mine. And I never said you were a bad tank driver, I just trust the stats more.

Blasters may deal the most DPS close up but they have really bad damage fall off range, so they're really only most effective close up. Railguns however have exceptionally long effective range, which makes them a bit more flexible in terms of killing power.
As for artillery, I'll need a bit more info on what exactly it'll be like before I'll get too excited. I love my Railgun so much, it'll be hard to let it go. |

My playstyle accounts for this. I've adapted to it. I easily outgank any other tank that uses a railgun, if I am prepared for it. |

debacle, what pokey said is right. YES, blasters have great cqc DPS.....you dont want to engage tanks at close range....well, maybe on this map, but why would you handicap yourself? the difference in damage for railguns at close range is negligible and having the range is great for more than just AV dealings.....plus....SPLASH......you dont appreciate it until you find out how great it is
sincere help offered here......
take it or leave it, i wont say anything more. id be happy to duke it out with you anytime if your using blasters after all, rather i would chase you down if i saw a blaster turret |

fair enough, i certainly dont have any right to tell you what to do.
if i may tho, make a second railgun fit for different types of situations? i certainly have more than one fitting... |

*shrugs* I like picking off people from across the map. Just don't be too cocky about it, most tank drives are idiots but not everyone is so easily outwitted =)
As for Large Autocannons, I really don't think they'll be all that effective but I've gotta run a few matches with like 4-giant gatling guns mounted to the main turret....if only for intimidation and badassery. |
