The game at it's basic is a FPS not a vehicle game, Am i right?

Bolded part is ur problem sir.
why are u using swarms (standard to boot) on a SHIELD TANK? get some forge guns

Milita swarms should scratch the paintwork tbh and yes it should take well more than 3ppl tbh and fair few volleys, its basic AV which is free

Its teamwork, but with milita swarms

Barely a step up from the guy who wants to solo a tank by himself with basic AV stuff

that statement is absolute horse ****
using swarms makes u a sittin duck? gtfo with that bs comment

as an armor tanker i see swarms with their BS trackin make 180s around cover and still hit me
u can lock onto targets that are also behind cover u dont need to expose urself much
if u said FG i would of agreed a bit but Swarms? lolno

True but your tank can get destroyed and there might be a situation where you do not want to be in a tank. But besides like I was saying in the earlier part of my post I said yes they can sit in tanks for a whole match. You have a lower chance of dying than anyone else on the field and you also have more splash power due to rockets as well. But it's silly to think that you should never worry about fitting into other roles.

1. They already DO need infantry to support them, and they need infantry support at mid-range and long-range as well as in close quarters.
2. AV players have plenty of fighting chance against tanks. Competent players with a Forge Gun and a Swarm Launcher, backed by a couple of guys fitted for anti-personnel oprations, will be a deadly threat to any enemy armour. If they have Flux and/or AV Grenades on anyone in the squad on top of the other weapons, then you've pretty much already won the fight.

Tanks need infantry around the clock at all distances now since it can barely tank anything to begin with and depending on that main turret you have they always engage at long range because its safe and half the time next to a supply depot

Forge gun idea is so bad, they already have the damage and can 3 shot any tank tbh, they also have long range and spam it from the otherside of the map to begin with because they can and dont have to get in close in case they get mullered

Tank fights will never last more than a few seconds if AV infantry can do basically the same, the forge gun is like a handheld large railgun which really it should be smack between the small and large railgun in damage/range/splash damage and radius. Plus swarms are just if not more broken with the ability to lock on through cover and jump when firing and also the missile avoiding stuff in the way and cover to hit the HAV

As for the large railgun its kinda where it should be which is heavy damage dealing, the turret is already the slowest turning turret and it overheats after 2 cont shots with a 15sec cooldown, the problem is with the tank hulls

The tanks themself with no weapons are weak, passive resistances got nerfed across all mods, active mods for shield are meh 10sec use 30sec cooldown, even the remote shield reps suck compared to the armor ones and in general armor got the short straw because swarms pummle it easily with 30% extra damage against armor and it also has no active mods

I cant even make a brawler tank fit because its too weak no matter how much armor i put on it


The whole balance between AV and vehicles has become even more unbalanced due to the latest patch, vehicles got another turret nerfed while AV remains unchanged and broken

Armor is still weaker when compared to shields

That tank is on that hill even more now because the community put it up that hill and at this rate it wont be coming down anytime soon
