Just had a game where we completely destroyed the other team. Now to tell you how the game went,

Game Starts, 4 Tanks called in for the attackers....
All 4 Tanks run around and basically destroy any building that can be destroyed, then starts killing players.
Enemy Team (Defenders) run around and cap points here and there.
We go take the points back, enemy team regroups and tries to call in tanks/ dropships.
One dropship I think actually made it into the air.
All 4 tanks, continue to run around uninhibited, til the MCC docks.

For the entire game, not one single tank was destroyed, nor was our LAV IIRC.

So for everyone that thinks tanks don't need some adjusting, well I won't say what I think.

I wish someone had recorded that game and sent it into CCP. I don't think an Entire team of Proto Heavies with proto weapons would have killed a single one of the 4 tanks. You may disagree, and that's fine.

But yes, tanks need a little adjusting, maybe not nerfing, but some adjustments/tweaking.

what were those proto heavies using? forge guns?

Rock always beats Scissors until you use Paper. Sounds like your team were bad at AV.

Last game I just played, vehicles were dominating, especially a Sagaris. I spawn midgame.. and vehicles started to die. Militia stuff was the first to go, then I took out the Sagaris by myself with just a Proto Swarm Launcher.

Anti-Vehicle is a skill, that requires practice and proper skills, just like AR, and Vehicles.

Anti-Vehicle is a ROLE that nobody seems to get. You can't just toss in a Swarm Launcher or Forge Gun and call it good. They need to be dedicated at their role.

Stuff is coming that will counter tanks!

CCP is just confirming what it already knows.

Amazeing how many bad teams,players are out there according to these forums. you cant blame players for calling in 4/5 tanks if it gets the job done, but that leaves you with 1 option go as a heavy anti armour build and if like me you have points invested in assault it makes you pretty useless.

This just goes to show that other load outs need some major anti armour abilities, 2 grenades just is not a solution mines could be one.

Yes other things are planned but they are not out yet which leaves players thinking tanks are op and at the moment with only one build (if they are not running with an assault rifle) capable of dealing with the problem.

Yes there are teams witch dont jell and work good together but with so many complaints it makes you wonder

Simple really

Tanks are going to be more expenisve so i doubt you will see more than 2 being called in

But also they should be made to carry ammo and also reload instead of constant spam

I've heard the price being thrown around a lot as a balancing measure. In reality it won't be that important. They said that about carriers in EVE and were proven wrong and then about titans and proven wrong.
Price won't balance, it'll just bring in the bigger players.

As for vehicle ammo, I'm for that completely. +1 for this.

Yeah, I really want to put a few rounds of antimatter rounds up a forge gunners *** :)
I'm a tank driver, and even I think Ammo is needed.

Oh well, I get the whole role and anti-role stuff, but this build games fel too much like a spam fest of vehicle weaponry and AV stuff.

IMO this game should take lessons from other games and have some sort of cap to what can be fielded.

Many games have fixed roles players can asume. That would not work here.

But having some sort of "point allowance" that could be deducted by calling in vehicles could help. Something like each team have 100 points. If a tank is called lets say 40 points are deducted from the pool. Once destroyed these points are added back to the pool. Same thing for heavy AV weaponry like missile launchers and forge guns.

Well anyway I hope the game next build have less spamming of ordinance, because its very annoying to play as infantry right now in this build.

It's not the fact that the tanks are need adjusting. It's the fact that the team you opposed was disorganized. Wait until player-corp management is added then tell me if you think tanks still need adjusting.
