Or 75% of what they are.
And honestly, thinking of separating gunner and driver is horrible. These are tanks, not god-damn APC's.
i really don't care about this nerf, it doesn't affect me much, but balance is balance. |

I'm not on board 100% with the seperating driver from main gun either. I have small turrets for gunners. |

Please tell me a single tank in existence that can be operated by a single pilot...lmfao.
I love how tank drivers are up in arms, when really Dropships are the ones that got shafted here, and they're fairly quiet. |

+1 this would be more realistic with the nerf. and is why we dont see any tanks being put on the field. |

Yeah Im not spending 1.4M or more on a tank, so I can drive someone else around to dominate a map. I feel the damn dropships should have a gun for the pilot as well. |

As soon as you show me your laser rifles, dropships, and heavy dropsuit wardrobe.
Also, I'm an LAV driver, so your point is invalid. |

The only downside to piloting a DS is you get only assist points. I have flown them and I agree it's not very SP smart to fly one. You risk the isk for what? A bunch of assists and 5k sp nah not for me |

How the kitten is my point invalid, just because it doesn't pertain to you? And here I was thinking you were one of the more intelligent posters here smfh. The point is, why do tank drivers get to be solo heroes while EVERYONE else needs teamwork? God forbid tank drivers needed some skill and coordination to dominate the field, right? |

Actually they aren't, they all have full crews, the capsuleer just controls the main operations while the crew handles all the other random ****. We aren't capsuleers, we don't get in pods, considering a pod is roughly the size of a small tank. |

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. |

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. |

hes a bit rusty,
A single capsuleer can reduce the crewing requirements of a tian significantly

http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/New_Eden_crew_guidelines
also not anyone can pilot the ship with such effecinty only people with the right genes which just happens to be about 1 in a 100 million. which is why capsuleer pilots are so rare vs the general populance. |

You can't just try and twist lore to rationalize away game balance. Everyone else needs either good teamwork or lots of skill, except for tank drivers. It's about time they drink the damn coolaid too. |

i am not a role player alright CVA fags lol. if u wanna have ur gay role playing apply to dust then i believe we need to rework eve ya? how about this, each titan turret will be manned by another eve player the dooms day will be manned by another eve player drones will be manned again by another eve player and thus you have your version of dust tanks....and no you no fly my titan he logged off ^^ |

I was a bit harsh about the point invalidation, but what I meant was that your point of realism just doesn't apply to the EvE world. I can argue the same thing about dozens of the game components. |

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.

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. |

heh, i think dropship pilot needs all his "handeling" skills to fly arround, giving the pilot a turret will simply most likely crash the dahm thing.
Afterall, its a DROPSHIP, aka (also known as) a TRANSPORT VESSEL.
Its not a combat vessel, its no a flying tank, its nothing but a transport vessel.
Seeing people flying arround the whole time hoping to get a kill or 2 is simply pathetic, imo, they should even remove the turrets on a dropship, afterall, on the release there will be Bombers and fighter air vehicles.
fighters shooting at the tanks or airborn vessels, bombers bombing everyting on the ground.... count it up
small hint for all of you lads, on release there will be more then 20 different vessels, not only dropships, tanks and LAV's |

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. |

Ammo, yes. Having to at least have two people in a tank for it to be useful, no. The driver would have to pay for the tank, and have to spend all of his SP into something that, if his buds aren't online, is completely obsolete. There'd be very few people skilling up into them as the battles they go alone in, would be all militia dropsuits and they wouldn't be able to use their tanks.
I'm not being close-minded, I'm being smart. |

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? |

I'm sorry, Icy Tiger, but I have to disagree with you. The prices should not be lowered at all. As for the suggestion of making the operator soley the driver instead of driver/operator and tank gunner all-in-one -- I find that to be somewhat promising. You do not necessarily see operators and commanders piloting or gunning their own tanks. So why not now? This is why most tanks have a crew of four members. Maybe this should be looked into and tested as a plausible solution. People will complain naturally over any and everything, but it does not mean it was not best, or what was good for the whole. |

Omg you just made me realize, with this change, a full squad could fit into a tank ^_^ |

Dropships are meant for transport and insertion of troops. I can still insert randoms without having to coordinate or communicate with them while in a dropships. They just get in when I take off and hop out when I land. It's not the same for HAV's. They attack and defend which requires coordination. |

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
Aaaaaannnnddd... You can OHK the heavy... So. Cool.
But I do think the resistance nerf was unnessecary. The AV buff was fine by itself.
But now, we find that tanks have to fear *gaspz* anti vehicle infantry! The insanity! |

That would be pretty awsome actually. Better yet if instead of just relying on dropships we could Dusters could get a HAPC (Heavily Armored Personel Carrier) which has the body of a heavily armored vehicle, but elongated for multiple personel. Sort of like a mobile command center. You could even put a CRU (Clone Reanimation Unit) inside of the HAPC and it would make sense. I think the dropships are great for rapid deployment deep into enemy lines, but a HAPC could have it's uses to as breach vehicle and assault support. Instead of being armed with a main cannon like HAV's (Heavy Attack Vehicle) it would instead be primarily armed with a support turret, or some form of anti-personel dispersers for close quarter combat, and defense. Relying more on it's armor and shielding as a transport for ground infantry. Considering that LAV (Light Attack Vehicle) has it's own role this is not a bad idea.
Edit:
It does not even have to be a heavily armored personel carrier. Just a normal APC (Armored Personel Carrier) would be a great addition. |

Kind of like coordinating between your driver and your gunner? Tank drivers are just TERRIFIED of playing more of a support role, instead of playing superman.

Yep. Which is why I said that you can't operate a tank without friends, which means that no friends = wasted SP = waste of time. |

As pointed out several times, this would make the tank more powerful, so I would expect it to be welcomed by the tankers. If you spend the money to help your side, why wouldn't you want it to be more effective?
Tanks SHOULD be badass, the main objection is that it was a one man force multiplier. This would help satisfy both sides. |

So you're admitting that you just want tanks to be able to solo everything? |

i really don't care about this nerf, it doesn't affect me much, but balance is balance.
Disagree 100%. I feel tank prices should be tripled and I also support separating drivers and main turret just like the other two vehicles do. |

Please tell me a single tank in existence that can be operated by a single pilot...lmfao. I love how tank drivers are up in arms, when really Dropships are the ones that got shafted here, and they're fairly quiet.
Are the spaceships in eve operated by more then one person????? This is a game so the RL argument is void |

I wouldn't skill up into them as I would only be able to operate efficiently if I had a squad member with me. Not worth the time. |
