Killing a tank in BF3 is pathetically easier than it is in dust.

I want RE's to be like C4 on BF3. Then I will be a happy Scout who is sick of being surrounded b Surya/Sagaris who meets one in the face with little to no capability to do nout.

I think this is a reasonable topic to be brought up. Ships in Eve have to have ammo (missiles, projectiles, etc) before they can go into battle with the exception of lasers. Lasers use crystals to determine damage type, range among other factors. Tanks shouldn't be an exception. If I know CCP well enough from experience I would be willing to bet they are going to be implementing something like this. Maybe not right away but in time.

However, since this is a shooter I could be wrong but I doubt it especially since some of the battles will be taking place on sovereign territories for very valuable resources. Resources that corps are willing to go to any length to protect them. And I do mean any length. Eve low and null sec as well as wormhole space is very competitive.

So that being said; I don't see why CCP will not implement the same for tanks as they do for ships in Eve. Tanks energy turrets use capacitor energy. These capacitors need to be recharged if depleted unless the power source can keep up.

Missiles/rockets should be limited. The tank does not have an infinite space to store them in. So it stands to reason that they should run out. If the tank survives long enough to resupply then more power to them but this should also be a factor to be taken into consideration since resupply is part of battle and a strategic part at that. Real life battles have been lost to the lack of supply. This should be no exception since the Eve universe is based on realism.

a proto large turret costs about 100k isk while only getting a slight damage boost 1.5 damage max so your telling me that somewhere in that extra 99k isk we are not paying for a bunch of nanohives to be in it giving it as much ammo as it needs?whats a proto nanohive worth 20k-30k? each proto nanohive lets you throw down 2 right and gives you about 400 bullets each before going bye bye. personally I just think the best way to implement finite ammo would be tellin the dudes with AR's to get a swarm launcher or a forge gun that insanely OP tank that 1 shots you and takes "no skill" goes down very quickly.....I don't think even Noc's tank could last 10 seconds if 3 forge gunners ambushed him

This isn't about AV its about the fact that EVE ships don't have infinite ammo yet these small vehicles do... how does that make sense? Especially since next patch nanohives will have an ammo replenishment limit (which they currently don't).
