Pvt Numnutz We're OWL Exterminators 35	Posted - 2013.03.18 20:54:00 - [1] - Quote I have been skilling into tanking for a while now and i have come to the conclusion that there is only one tank fit. A blaster turret. I have tried and tried again to fight these blaster tanks and yet to no avail, except for the rather week starters that are obviously just getting started. I know what your gonna say, dont let them get in range, but i have found that this is almost impossible, especially when the skilled tank pilots are concerned. I know i am not the most skilled tank pilot, but i can drive a gunnlogi and i can almost use advanced missile, railgun, and blaster. I just want to know if others have countered well fit blaster tanks using railguns or missile tanks. I am really getting demotivated with trying to fight all these blaster tanks. I thought that blaster tanks were suppose to be an anti infantry turret, so why is it so stupidly effective against other tanks? or am i wrong in saying that? sorry for the noob questions, im just getting very frustrated.

Also missiles used to be awesome tank vs tank, believe it or not blasters we're the worst tank gun of all Thanks for the nerfs guys!!! In the next build I'm sure they'll work again, for right now blasters are what you want.
Pvt Numnutz We're OWL Exterminators 35	Posted - 2013.03.18 20:59:00 - [4] - Quote yes i thought that rails were meant to be anti tank, but i have found that most blasters are more effective, so why bother having rails at all? if the blaster is a do it all turret? its kinda stale

I really just dont like the fact that there are 3 turret types but only 1 is worth having.

They turned fast as current blasters, way more splash....they were nice.
Pvt Numnutz We're OWL Exterminators 35	Posted - 2013.03.18 21:03:00 - [8] - Quote Oh YOUR NAME HERE, i fought against you the other day, we had 3 tanks, i was unlucky enough to be closest to you and you got me, i think the other two tanks took you down. your a pretty damn good tank driver. Do you only use blasters?

Make everything else broke so we have to test what works instead of not using it, Then add everything back in correctly after testing is complete.

Corners wont save you blue berry >:D

Would be nice if blaster tanks were really good against infantry but less effective against vehicles. In the mean time i just want to know if there is anything i can do with the other turrets before im forced to conform to the one fit.

Do you only use blasters? Yes only blasters and I was upset, cuz my large rep flipped off, which turns out could because of flux grenades believe it or not. But in closed beta before the nerfs I used missile turrets as they were supreme

Im just wondering why blasters are more effective at killing tanks than rails. probably just my skills but ive lost some tank engagements when i felt i should have won. Not butt hurt just confused, thanks for.....oh wait your not helpful.

On a side note:Don't post twice , edit your post instead.

I would prefer to learn it my self anyway, atleast it gives me something to work towards besides grinding and loosing expensive vehicles
Beld Errmon UnReaL. 538	Posted - 2013.03.18 21:43:00 - [24] - Quote A proto railgun can 2 or 3 shot another tank, but in close quarters it doesn't turn well and a good blaster tank will try to get behind you, I don't like the fact your ready to throw blasters under the OP bus because for all I know you shield tank madrugers and don't skill into a weapon beyond level 3. You should do a search on railguns there was a 9 page thread on how ridiculously OP they are at taking out other tanks.

Get 1 or 2 people in a LAV with you and roll up on his ass when he isn't looking and pop out lobbing AV at him. Thats how my bro and I took out his tank 2 games in a row, and 2 of Allmighty Status' tanks in the same game within 2 minutes of each other. If you can't get people to help you then jump on his tank and kill him when he jumps out to get you. If he doesn't jump out then just pop him while you are standing on him. Don't know who I did that to yesterday but I'm sure they were raging.
