Are you an idiot?

I don't even play the game LOL just trying to fix it until it is playable! :D

I've spent thousands of hours across multiple MMORPG's I've held leader board positions at the age of 12 in PVP's. .

your tank can move faster than I can with a kenetic enhancer and an assault dropsuit. please explain to me how running will help.

As a surya driver tanks are perfectly balanced, you got to put more sp into them then going for proto gear, If you train to proto swarms or proto forge it can really do some nasty damage to the sagaris or surya

Fix it by not playing it and providing feedback which is based on assumption rather than evidence, fact, or reason. My work here is done. Revel in it.

Thousands of hours and you cant escape or avoid a lousy tank ?
Try to run where he cant follow you, and put cover between you and the tank, also avoid it in the open.

im pretty sure the only thing you got thought during your FPS career was bad manners.

you still can't beat someone with 1 hour experience if your enemy has 100 days experience. aka no skill involved.

the tank can follow and camp me out. people know me after seeing my name in the kill feed after about 5 minutes and they know I'm proto, they want the money from my gear.

@ Aeon.

The problem is most people who are playing dust or who tried it and left came here expecting a. MMOFPS.
NOT a. SMALLMO VEHICLE WAR game.......... As I said I'm waitng, but not with baited breath.

Give me a valid reason as to why you think this way instead of just saying it. You're proving nothing.

I've spent thousands of hours across multiple MMORPG's I've held leader board positions at the age of 12 in PVP's. Don't tell me I'm not accustomed to it. I know how your ****** MMORPG's work. I know the ins and the outs. I know why you like to play them. I understand. but it all became clear to me when I started playing FPS'. YOU'RE WRONG. The games you like to play take nothing other than better equipment to win, which guess what, thanks to micro transactions in EVE/dust means NOTHING. I was always the poor player, whatever I had I made and worked for, while all you could just skip to the best gear because you had "points" or in this case "AUR". Your game means nothing to win at. you win what? spending more time or money on the game then being able to beat down on people who haven't spent as much? why would I want to play something like that? I want to play a game where skill determines all. not how long or how much money you're willing to put into the game.

I wish I could like my own posts

Seriously, I have yet to hear a single valid reason as to why these are over-powered.

"They make more SP than anyone else" - right, they're making more kills, getting kill assists, and destroying other vehicles/installations. All of which give them massive bonuses to their skill-points - as intended. You can make almost as much if not the same amount by operating in an area marked by a squad leader, as defense markers give you 50% to points accrued in their area of effect.

"They can parade around and not die" - And this is the tank's fault? Sounds more like bad planning, bad organization, and absolute refusal to have a (worthwhile) AV set-up on hand. Why the absolute **** should a militia swarm launcher be able to kill a Marauder easily? It shouldn't - and currently prototype AV weaponry against Marauders is incredibly well balanced as infantry is more maneuverable and can duck behind cover, effectively out of range of the tank's weapon systems.

"They're over-powered" Why?

"They shouldn't have 1.5 damage mod" Why not? You have increased damage from your weaponry by putting skill points into it, in fact you even have a skill called Weaponry that increases the damage of your weapons -ON TOP- of the actual weapon skill (sniper rifle operation, for example) that totals out to a 100% damage increase or further at all skills level five.

There are -NO- skills that increase vehicle damage, only the vehicle itself, the turret, and modules equipped.

when you can put up 80-100 kills with little effort or when your teams getting redlined and you can just roll around the map doing whatever you want I beg to differ. When you can spec into godly tanks faster than you can get proto dropsuits I beg to differ. When your SP gain almost doubles when in a tank vs on the ground i beg to differ.

name ONE time a tank has totally wiped the map totally by his self without any help of his team? if a tank is kicking your teams ass than YOU dont have what is needed to defeat them, its not his fault your gonna run around in a proto assault suit with a AR and ***** that a tank is killing you, A TANK SHOULD KILL YOU,

y does no one ever consider that tanks are a thing that is needed on BOTH teams, if one team has a badass sagaris and the other team has no vehicles, its a no brainer, thats like bitching that u cant win when u have a bunch of AV guys against a team of nothing but hardcore assault infantry

It's a lot harder to drive a tank than you think. The ones that do get that many kills, are the ones that know what they are doing.

Listen here nub I have a proto swarm launcher. TBH 4 shots with that thing should take any tank down. I haven't killed an armored tank with my proto swarms yet.

Seriously ??? Do you actually play dust514. ? .
24 people is not massive.
Vehicles galore nearly every game.

If an FPS is me spending a whole game shooting at vehicles from rooftops, then I obviuosly miss understood the FPS part.

Rubbish . My second weekend of having skilled up a tank and I got 54:2 which is waaaaaaay above my skill level on foot.

If I'm drunk or really lazy I just get in the tank and play on easy mode because thats exactly what it is. Took me 1 weekend grinding to Proto fit it ( faill fit no doubt but I give 2 x f"cks its a tank after all)).

Tanks even at 1 mil are a great deal for godlike powers and the only challange you ever face is when your actualy fighting other tanks which I have to say was fun and the only thing I look forward to when I'm sitting in one.


Also dont give me I must be a good tank diver because I'm horrible at it and half my team on coms just snigger at me as I drive into one wall after another.


@Terrarim

Only counter I have found is to load up a scout suit with a proto Swarmlauncher and wait for it to get a little beat up from some other poor soul fighting it then jump ontop of it and hipfire the dam thing into it. Almost always die if the tank explodes but hell its worth it.
