Started off, enemy immediately brought in 2 tanks. I thought "kill it, tanks aren't free". Both tanks could repair faster than 2 militia swarm launchers unloading at them. When we got a third swarm launcher on one of them, he just drove behind cover for a second and let his armor regen. Both tanks lasted all game and dominated every inch of the null cannon areas. I didnt think much when the most expensive assault rifle could kill me in 2-3 bullets because I could still kill them first if i managed to get headshots. But when 2 or 3 veterans can ensure victory from the start of the game no matter what, it makes me think something is wrong. Its not like i can instantly learn all the skills needed to pilot a tank. The only way i could think of to kill one would be orbital strike. However, with 2 tanks dominating our only spawn points from afar, we had no chance of building up enough points for a strike. I ask again, is this intended? Clone count was 50 to 120 and their MCC shields werent even down to half yet. |

So you're saying i can instantly train to use better grenades, swarm launchers, and heavy weapons? (Sarcasm)
I have no problem with a tank getting 15-20 kills, its what tanks are for and all. I have a problem with tanks being untouchable for unlucky rookies. At one point in the match i started browsing the market to see if i could throw isk at the problem like you suggest. But without ALREADY having the skills trained, it is impossible to kill a tricked out tank.
I understand that the repair mechanic is a major part of the EVE universe but in this situation it is a little much.
If you are going to argue EVE parallels in this situation then can i argue that i want to stay in a high sec zone until i have more skills trained? |

still a lot longer than i have been playing if he already has heavy suits and weapons.
I suppose i will change my feedback/request. Can the matchmaking system put rookies with other rookies that have relatively similar skill progress? If that makes any sense.
Like how high security systems keep rookies from getting spawn camped by veterans. |
