What type of tank is better depends on the situation though, doesn't it?
Aren't armor tanks generally better for vehicle combat while shield tanks are better for owning infantry? SL's suck against shield tanks right? & forge guns are good against shield, but they have terrible range now? Sounds to me like I would still stick with shield if I was planning to focus on infantry and had backup for when taking on other tanks.
Or.. if you're grouped, I guess you could have a squad mate have a fitting with a armor repair tool and have him as your gunner so if that does happen he can jump out and repair you guys and you can keep a watch out. |

Lol ok
So what about the part of having a friend as your gunner who also has a repair tool in his fitting? So he can jump out and rep after a close call.
That's a situation too though, so nvm... |

as shield tank you shouldn't even be shot into armor, ur shields are ur defense; shields gone, ur dead period.
i can assure you, if you come up against me with ur shield tank (i'm shield tanker too) you won't survive with half armor or less, ur armor will be 1 shotted. or you kill me befoer you get into armor. its that simple.
Same experience I had when driving a sagaris during the last build, once those shields were gone it was GG, I never experienced my armor passively being destroyed. |

I don't see how that's relevant to the balance between the two type of tanks. That's a problem on a different front, tactics that can be achieved through teamwork are still viable options because you can get into matches with friends and you can work together with them. Albeit it may be difficult, I usually run solo but I've grouped a couple of times with one other person and we had our troubles but we managed.
Lol at least in this game you can communicate with your team via mics. BF3 really dropped the ball on that one, I can't believe how long it took them to fix that. |
