You seem to act like tanks were the only ones effected by the drop in resistance.

We're getting active shield and armor hardeners soon, which will allow you to use SKILL to amplify your resists in time to tank a volley or two as you move for cover.

They're turning dials, just play the game and keep providing feedback.

That calling out positions and having your team kill them sounds good in theory, but I don't know how many times Ive seen assault people just not kill AV people, how hard is it to kill a guy with a swarm launcher, he can't hit you with the swarm, but apparently the assault guys Ive seen can't hit the AV guy. Amazing bad aiming in this community.

Second an active repper is gonna have a cooldown. So I take the first salvo or two then it cuts off for 30 seconds, in that time there will be enough other salvos coming in to kill me. Especially since we're paper thin. Oh and turning on a module isn't skill. It's R2 and a direction. Timing isn't skill.

If you want truly skillful players. Put Cap in the game from Eve. I miss Capacitor, managing your cap was skill. If everyone wants to talk about skill and think they got Leet Skills, bring in capacitor and we'll see how well everyone does.

I admit, I shouldn't get caught alone by 4 or 5 swarm launcher guys, but the issue right now isn't 4 or 5.

And everyone has a different definition of what constitutes skill. Turning on an Active Hardener isn't skill to me, it's moving the controller.

Now I see people on here all the time talking about risk vs. reward, but it seems no one wants that to apply to tanks. That tank driver that is running around getting 20+ kills a match just spent probably 10x more isk than you did for your little assault suit. So shouldn't his reward be 10x more than yours, he's fielding the bigger risk..

Tanks are supposed to run from people since everyone wants to feel like they are the best thing to happen to an FPS since sliced bread. Once someone dies to something they call for a nerf. Nerf tanks I can't kill them 1v1, regardless of the fact he's a tank and Im a damn foot soldier, his tank cost 1.4M isk and Im running around in about a 75k dropsuit......I should be able to go toe to toe with anything and everything. I see it already, MCC gonna get nerfed when people can't shoot it down with an Assault Rifle... Waaahhh my AR doesn't kill the MCC NERF IT. I can't hold down the trigger and just spray bullets and kill it, NERF IT.

Everyone wants the game to be COD, then go play COD. It ain't that I want to play WOT, I want there to be more diversity than everyone running around with a ******* AR. I have no problems using an AR, but that isn't what I want to play anymore.

And as for Beld Failman or whatever, it's a ******* tank. It's not a pony, it's not a stuffed animal, it's a mutherfucking tank. 1v1 a ground troop should always lose to the ******* tank, want to know why? Cause it's a ******* tank you dumbshit. It should take 4 or 5 people to tank out a ******* tank. That's the only way you're fielding as much ISK as I am. It'll take 4 well geared guys to make 1.4M worth of dropsuits. If ISK doesn't directly relate to base power then make everything ******* free. Tanks are supposed to be feared on a battlefield, not the other way around. You realize common foot soldiers need less training than Tank Driver or a Pilot in RL right, same goes in DUST. I have more skills to train than an Assault guy. Assault Suits. Assault Rifle Operation, Assault Rifle Proficiency and you're good. Anything else is extra. Tanks have to train Vehicle Command to 1, which should be 5 for a tank, whatever 12X HAV Skill they want, and no less than 4 armor or shield skills depending on which tank they choose. And once again one of those is a 12X skill. The highest you have to train for assault is what 8x for the suit...whooopdie doo..

****** players want to act like tank drivers are whiny bitches, that need to adapt and overcome and all that ****, well personally, I see it as the other way around. Whatever they don't like they cry NERF instead of doing what they tell everyone else to do. Bunch of double standards around here I see. **** if everyone has to play the same damn way with no vehicles dropships different type of ground troops, just give everyone a damn peashooter and let us go at it.

And **** no, don't seperate driving from shooting, my 1.4M dollar tank isn't a Limosine, and I don't trust anyone else to guard my damn tank correctly but me. I didn't spend 1.4M to escort bunny hopping retards around.

Im done discussing this at this point. I feel like Im talking with a bunch of whiny brat kids bound for the special olympics.

People talk about tanks like they're supposed to dominate infantry. Do you people even understand that the role of a modern tank is infantry support, coupled with anti-armor duty? Tanks can easily be disabled, sometimes even destroyed by a lone infantryman with an RPG, let alone several. Tanks are very vulnerable to the weapons designed to destroy them, and damn near invincible against anything else. The same goes for the infantry they support. Funnily enough, it takes two seperate skillsets to effectively combat either one. Also funny, is the fact that they're extremely effective when working together...
