Right - because they're capsuleers who run the risk of Mind Lock every time they jack themselves into the pod. They -control- the Battleship with their consciousness and it's replaces their body as far as their brain is concerned.
Even then, all ships have crews - even Frigates have a small handful of people that assist the Capsuleer. So, bullshit, bullshit, and oh yeah bullshit. |

I love how tank drivers are up in arms, when really Dropships are the ones that got shafted here, and they're fairly quiet. they both got shafted. ur dropship is what 500k? so with the new nerf mmmmm ya should be 1 swarm shot. my tank at 1.7m so 3 shots. Sounds right. also in eve an entire titan is flown by 1 pilot , its called the pod. which tanks should be stuck in pods
More crying that Tanks should be one-man killing machines and not team-based investments to assist in a victory. Considering that every time I played in a match with you all you did was drive Tanks - I can't wait to unload a forge gun in your general direction again. |

Tanks are a joke now I guess you just want it to be something that takes up space on the market? I bet I don't buy anymore being they aren't battleworthy. I tried one just to see how bad the nerf was and its not profitable to use it anymore. Maybe it was my team as they were pretty horrible as well. I had one forge gunner shoot my tank 3 times and pop. One forge gun that was a 1/15th of the cost took out a tank that costed 1.2 mil.(Gunnlogi) I don't think I will be using them anymore. I feel bad for guys who waste money on tanks. Time to go all out AR
I'd be cool with raising the prices -before- the hotfix. Admittedly Ted, you have to admit something had to be done. I think they might have been a little too heavy-handed by increasing the damage on AV after reducing the resistances (the real fuckin' issue) before we got all of our tools in (miasma/chaff grenades and movement nullifiers) but they did say this was only temporary so.
They're going to be used as team-assists now, they were never intended to be one-man death machines as they were being used for. After dozens of forum posts it took a Player vs Dev event to show them just how messed up things really were and thusly there was a hotfix. |

Come on Debacle, stop being so close-minded it's just a suggestion. CCP even offered it up as one and the community freaked out about it so they nerfed the ever living hell out of tanks and buffed AV straight through the roof.
I agree with separating them because then it forces a team-play element, and my everlasting hatred of Call of Duty being too mindless of a game to involve team-play elements biases that.
I think the BEST OPTION would be to give -ALL- vehicle ammunition amounts so that they have to hit up a supply depot in order to get more ammunition. At least then there'd be times when the Tank would -have- to break away from engagement or else run the risk of not having weaponry to fight with. It'd involve a lot more thought about what he should use his weaponry for as having a Railgun Death Cannon with only a dozen rounds wouldn't exactly be apt for use against Infantry. |

They won't. This is a temporary fix until we get more tools to work against them. I have stated this before - do I need to put it in big bold letters? |
