Okay, people cry about tanks. You raise the price of tanks to cut back on tanks. People cry some more about tanks. You make them not as effective while making AV more effective. Now my question is when do the prices on AV go up being its better? When will the prices of tanks go back down being they are worse? I mean I don't have to use a tank to have fun in this game. As well I am not going to be buying things that aren't effective. Such as a rail gun that costs 400k and only does 120 splash. I mean grenades do more splash damage than a missile turret! I mean really A FREAKIN MISSILE THAT DOES LESS SPLASH THAN A GRENADE? That makes not one bit of since to me. Really stop giving in to all the babies. I lose tanks to AV squads and they have to work together but yeah it's a squad. They are supposed to work together! Might as well just take the tank out of the game. My grenades are more effective now. SMH at CCP |

It wasn't the strength of tanks that I hated, was the amount of them showing up in battles at once compared to the amount of players per game. It was just ridiculous and in my opinion they tweaked the wrong thing by nerfing them.
Ya know I said the same thing after the other tank nerfs when people were still crying. People are complaining when everything isn't in place. CCP has a plan and when they bring other things into the game a tank will really be useless. Either way I will just go AR now. I really enjoy what STB can do with or without tanks. I used my tank to back up my squad. I'm sure you have all been in rounds when I only get 6 kills with a tank. It is simply because I like to win. I used my tank in a way that benefits the entire squad. If we didn't have a letter I would roll on over and help my squad take that letter. Never would I sit in my spawn and try to snipe other tanks or infantry. I do not play in that style of play. I used it to defend or help my team out. I mean either way I don't care how many people post in here saying anything about STB being a tank corp, or we will be nothing without tanks. Once we can man a 16 man platoon what we do on the field will show people we are here to win. I'm not saying we will be unbeatable or being egotistical(i probably butchered that word). I am simply saying that we will be a worthy opponent for most if not all corps. I look forward to being able to play a 16 vs 16 or whatever vs whatever. Only then will people really see what STB possesses. Thanks for reading and thanks for commenting in any negative way to keep this post on the top. Killa wasn't being negative you or at least I wasn't trying to. |

I'm only doing what every other player in the beta did. I didn't see anyone calling them out. From most of the posts I read, 80% were backing them up. Only seems right that I of all players get hated on my threads. It's ok though I like seeing that I have ruined everyones day. LOL |

A tank - REALISTICALLY - needs AN ENTIRE SQUAD to run it - if you want to get technical - quit the bit chin! It's just a test - really!
What weapon did you buy that costs 2 mil? |

LOL Didn't ruin my day - care less about your tank problems - I have other issues to beta test
If you read that right.... I didn't say my tank problem ruined your day. I said I ruined your day.... If you don't care about my problems why are you even posting? |

Ok mighty kengfa.... its a forum post not a hate on ted post... unless you wanna comment on what i said there isnt a point to really post anything at all.... make your own post about defining a troll if you like i could care less |

They don't I guess to make things a little more easier for everyone(I really mean you as your the only one who questioned it right) to understand I should have put an extra sentence in there. Sorry if you couldn't figure it out |

I mean if thats your arguement I am willing to pay for my ammo if it makes it better Ted, would you support limited ammo counts for HAVs that could only be replenished at supply depots, and separate positions for the driver and main gunner?
I would support buying ammo I mean being able to resupply isn't really going to fix the infinite ammo problem in my eyes. I mean you get low and just pull up to a supply point and hey I have all the ammo I want again. Now in my opinion if I had to supply myself with my own ammo I wouldn't just "waste" ammo shooting at everything I think I could kill. I would take my shots and make them count. As far as my main gun no way I would trust a random blue dot to fight another tank for me. I had to pay for the tank I couldn't put it at risk with someone else shooting at other tanks. I mean they can't compensate for my movement meaning they may miss while i'm trying to meneuver on my target. I personally think thats a bad idea. Any thoughts on my opinion? |

Well with the new nerf they kind of do. Bring a solo tank out and see how long it lasts. Use a squad to help fend off the infantry and see how long they last. Right? |

I still say I would want to be in control of my main turret. If I am not in control of that turret then I would support it if tank prices went down. |

It is too risky as I mentioned before regardless who is in the tank gunning. If I turn left while they are shooting they may miss the target. I guess it would go both ways. I wouldn't use tanks if I couldn't shoot people I don't think. I do fly dropships... well i did until today its a waste of isk lol |

Use a squad to help fend off the infantry and see how long they last. Right? And there's some credence to this point as well. As an example, established doctrine within the US Army is to never use tanks without infantry support, which is part of why you almost always see Abrams platoons operating with Bradley support.
somebody with some sense finally emerges from the shadows

I do fly dropships... well i did until today its a waste of isk lol What I wanted to highlight though is that an HAV should require the same level of teamwork to go steamrolling through infantry as the infantry would need to kill it. If you and your gunner are on audio with each other you can coordinate your attacks to minimize vulnerability. Also, who says you have to be the driver? They've been considering squad-locking of vehicles, and if they implement that, you could let someone else drive while you gun.
I guess it would be an interesting aspect to try.... I still think it would generate negative feedback kind of like how this nerf did.... It would be worth a try I wouldn't be the one testing it out though. Definately not at 1.5+ mil a pop.... |

The first build for tanks I liked it the most. Not necessarily the prices but how the tank was itself was fantastic. I'm still not 100% with you on giving up my main gun at least until I can have a full platoon of STB so I at least know who is gunning in my tank |
