Coleman Gray RED COLONIAL MARINES Covert Intervention 97	Posted - 2013.03.20 18:32:00 - [1] - Quote Maybe a crazy idea, never seen people try this before but what if the people on foot followed the tank to the bases and captured the bases where theres a tank present? rather than now where people go to the opposite side of the map to the tank. People forget, tanks can't hack!

Logi Bro ZionTCD Legacy Rising 969	Posted - 2013.03.20 18:39:00 - [3] - Quote Sarcasm alert! We got a badass over here! On a less troll note, You can't expect tactics from a blueberry team, to get tactics you will need to form up a squad. (And I know sticking with a moving bunker seems like common sense, but it's tactics to a blueberry.)
DUST Fiend Immobile Infantry 2101	Posted - 2013.03.20 18:43:00 - [4] - Quote I do that with our tank drivers when I find them. It's much better to advance your squad with some mobile cover if you ask me.
Coleman Gray RED COLONIAL MARINES Covert Intervention 97	Posted - 2013.03.20 18:45:00 - [5] - Quote You know what..your all right, their stupid for not using common sense tactics but I'm even more stupid for hoping for tactics from blue team T.T where do I sign up for Red team?
Bones McGavins Forty-Nine Fedayeen Minmatar Republic 33	Posted - 2013.03.20 19:04:00 - [6] - Quote Well the downside is, plenty of snipers and AR users will be keeping an eye on that tank, and it can only cover you from one angle. Advancing "with" a tank makes a lot of sense, but I'm not sure that it works so well if your plan is to use it as mobile cover. It makes sense to advance as normal, but stick in the same area as the tank. Otherwise youll be caught in the open from like 3 sides, and it doesnt take very long for a sniper or AR to cut you down.

Awww man....did you HAVE to mention that....?
Takahiro Kashuken Intara Direct Action Caldari State 155	Posted - 2013.03.20 19:09:00 - [8] - Quote What a great idea Just slowly roll into the onbjective and let the enemy thrown endless AV nades at you from behind cover because they home in from 20m away before your infantry can react and kill them

People forget, tanks can't hack! why dont you just drive with the team? obviously it might be restricted based off the level of AV the other team has, but at the end of the day your tank is faster then the infantry and even if they wanted to follow you it would be kind of hard to do so.

Players don't need to hug the tank just be in the same base area, fighting in cover is alot harder when theres a tank waiting for you to break cover accidently when fighting, tanks have some serious range to them

Garrett Blacknova Codex Troopers 2084	Posted - 2013.03.21 14:13:00 - [11] - Quote When I'm running any of my Logi fittings, I usually try and stick with HAVs as long as they cooperate. It doesn't happen often, but when it does... good times. Usually ends up collecting a few blueberries with the same idea, too.
Vermaak Doe SVER True Blood Unclaimed. 594	Posted - 2013.03.21 14:16:00 - [12] - Quote How about an actual untried method? Fitting proto blasters with tracking and damage bonuses only. The talos wilk have entered dust
