Vehicles for the win, no need to spec into infantry.

we actually ran 3 about 90 percent of the time. Yes we would bring in a fourth every once in awhile because SI would be running 4-5 tanks at a time.

Vehicles do not win the match. They contribute but you need more then just vehicles to win. So yes they are important. But they are not OP or the I win button. SI and ROFL both ran heavy on the vehicles yet aka having up to 6 vehicles out at a time while we where running 3 yet we won. And SI and ROFL both have some of the best tank players in the game.

As these guys said it above me yes not using vehicles in corp matches is asking to get destroyed. Dust is not just another FPS. It is ment to be tactical. Only thing that sucks is this hurts pub matches but when you get corp v corp matches it enhances them.

Bottom line was Alldin's build/strategy was the most obvious reason you won IMHO. Our infantry were atleast as good as Imperfects while on EU servers. Bad things happened to us on NA. But we had no counter to Alldin's tank until the 3rd game. His build almost perfectly counters us.
I'm not making excuses, just pointing out how vital Alldin's role is.

All in all, great games with an alarming amount of ISK spent by all.

You know Noc is like one of the sickest tank dudes right? like since beta build 1

The problem right now is we don't see enough structures- just open areas where vehicles dominate.

How many times have you seen vehicles doing well in one of the center structure variations of skim junction?

I'm honestly a little disappointed that they didn't work out a feed or at least record it (they didn't, right?). I'd have really liked to have seen it, the first organized player tournament...

Aside from our first match I felt ROFL gave us tougher matches

Ahhh Right there says it all. they where as good as our infantry that was lagging out hardcore on there EU servers. lol.

Bold says it all. Need the lag in there favor to be as good.

But come on quit coming up with excuses guys. It was a good game and well fought. Just leave it at that.

lol no...

Going up against SI proved to be a challenge. Though they did not bring as many sturdier tanks as ROFL, I had to constantly analyze the positioning of enemy vehicles to get safe shots with my railgun (5,400+ dmg). Uplinks were also being used in massive amounts to the point were I would've carried a metal detector if I was on foot. For trying to go around the middle road I ended up having an enemy dropship shoot me from above twice, but thankfully it wasn't enough.The one guy who truly stood a chance of blowing up my tank was Ty Borg (lost 2 or 3 tanks out of 4 by Ty). I would've have lost a 5th tank but fortunately I had a LAV outfitted with 2 remote shield reppers to restore my shielding at one moment in the second round. Once my team made a push in the battlefield I was able to take down some dropshis before they could even leave their spawn as well as taking down multiple tanks (2 did survive drops from bolas). Overall, this was great experience for me as a tank driver and hope to be in future tournaments.

So why did we lose then? The 6000+ damage pershot tank was the single biggest advantage you guys had. You need to learn the difference between people accepting a reason we lost from people making excuses.

It's over 6000 damage. My Sica went from 5900 shield into burning wreck in 1 shot :(
Yes I brought militia tanks to the biggest fight on Dust.

Question: Are damage bonuses on railguns broken? The best I can see is 65% (3*10% modules + 35% skills). I don't remember seeing a 4k damage railgun on the market.

You read excuses because that's what you want to see. Over half our team were seriously restricted because of that one tank. I don't see how me giving Alldin his proper dues for that is an excuse.
Gg regardless.

Edit: we can't do the same fit because we didn't spec for it. That's our failing.

Hmmm last time I check you guys where able to do the exact same fit if you guys had the skill and the knowledge to do so. All I'm reading is excuses is because all you guys had to do was take out one tank. You guys understand that it was just 1 tank right?

Our advantage was better personal skill, better strategy, and where better at adapting to what was presented to us. One tank didn't decide the game, it was a team effort.

You do realize that you are saying that one rail gun tank, which is anti-vehicle, stop over half your team right. That is sad when you guys brought out plenty of tanks and forge guns yet couldn't over run a single tank or even surpress a single tank. Any sane person can read that you are putting up an excuses. " oh no we lost because of a single tank, I forget that there is 14 other players supporting each other. Hey guys seriously though, we had 4 plus tanks, 2 forges, and 1 dropship. We couldn't kill one dps tank."

Alldin is a beast, everybody in Imperfects is a beast.

Like I say, you don't understand HOW important he was.
Sad but true with regards to countering him.

It begins -_-

lol just sit back and enjoy the show.

Seeing how things might go downhill on this thread, I prescribed the perfect medication to ease the posters.

Well it's fact now! Words from Tony Calif.

Alldin you are a beast!!!!

Alldin=4 tanks, 2 forge, 1 dropship of SI.

I'm envious of you Alldin!! You my hero!

Actually vehicles where not for the win on the last battle our Infantry held the top of the leader board.

We only ran 3 vehicles and brought in a 4th aka tank when ever SI decided to try to get to tank heavy. Vehicles did not win us the match Yes they played a very key roll. But our infantry played just as important. ROFL tried to spam tanks and it got them no where. If you concentrate to much on vehicler gameplay it actually looses you the match

SI Was expecting a little to much out of there tanks I think. And hoping on there snipers killing our forges so they could run the tanks over us. It was a very solid tatic but in the end our infantry is set up of very very solid gun game people. With out that there is no taking objectives or holding them.

So there was alot more then just vehicles.

Vehicles are pretty well balanced. If we nerfed vehicles much more I think tourney and corp v corp matches would be a bore. It is excitement. Dropships did not dominate the game play at all in corp matches because if you got a good corp they are a very very easy thing to shoot down. I think it is just pub matches are effected badly by vehicle gameplay because randoms have trouble working together to take down tougher and smarter vehicle players.

I think anyone who played corp matches would agree that tanks/dropships/infantry all are needed and all played a very equal roll. And vehicle spamming will not win the game.

As Dark cloud said we had skills put in the right place and our vehicle users where very good at what they do.
