You do realise how expensive they are right? A tank is a tank. If its expensive then it will be powerful. A high level tank should be taken down with high level gear. Seems simple.
And it costs a huge amount just to get one, so its gotta be worth its expense, otherwise what's the point of them in the first place?

The Cost or the required amount of SP doesn't effect this one bit. The game shouldn't be GRIND TO WIN nor PAY TO WIN.
Tough personally I think the whole Tank gameplay in Dust is poorly Designed. They should be more like Heavy dropsuits of vechicles. Slow moving, huge armor pool (more than they have now) and with barely any regeneration to boost up the usefulness of repair tools. Sardonk Eternia wrote:

Due to these threads popping out in pretty much daily basis if not hourly, I think I am not alone with this one.
Personally I don't think tanks are overpowered, and I don't see them too often. For the price point in isk, they seem to be right where they need to be. Militia grade tanks are easily taken down by a free jeep. took out two yesterday with a squad mate in one match. The Million isk tanks do take a lot of work to take down but they should! If it was as easy to take down a million isk tank as it was to take down a militia grade 250k isk tank, then why even have the militia tanks? Also, why even have tanks? They would just be a constant isk loss for your merc. If you spend the isk on a vehicle, it should have a good chance of (when being used correctly) recovering your expense and making you a profit. I would like to see larger heavy turret platforms (maybe walkers) that are slow moving and have huge hitpoint stats in the game, probably right around the time that fighters and bombers make it into the game. I also would like to see the orbital strike do a LOT more damage over a wider area, and none of that warning shot stuff. If someone calls in a orbital strike on a stationary tank, that tank should be dead, no matter what they are driving, no matter how much they spent, and they should not be able to see the warning beacon and drive away. |
