no, the current AV is good, in comparison to the old style of god-mode tanks that required the entire team to switch to AV to hope to take down a crappy driver. |

still too much. one player should be defeatable by one player, a technical superiority(tank) should be defeated by a tactical superiority(learning to fire from cover and ducking shots) |

That would explain all the whining from both sides about the other being op, this way if people want ti take down a Hav in the quickest way (depending in the scenario) they'll have to close the distance ir engage the Hav in a close quarters part if the map.
yeah, lets go engage the thing that kills us in half a second at close range, at close range!
seriously, in the open, vs a blaster tank, you getting within 40 yards and surviving is the sign of a terrible driver with crap gunners. |

I only count the driver as most of the one's I've seen run alone to pubstomp ambushes. and redberries manning the guns, shooting at the MCC. |

At the same time there should be really high damage Av that has a highly limited range. In this scenario long range Av would have it's place but only when deployed in groups, however by using the close range Av you can take said tank down the sane tank (both scenarios on paper) in a relatively shirt amount of time solo or at most with 2 total users if said close range Av.
Any thoughts? Close range AV.... What are AV grenades? That's pretty much what I'm referring to, but at most they do little over a swarm launcher volley I have destroyed plenty of tanks with av grenades..... Nanohive and packed av grenades..... But from what I've seen the main complaint from tanks have been Av having toi much range while some Av people complain that they don't do enough damage, si this way Av players can choose between range and damage and have a noticeable gap in between the damage (I remember Av grenade damage for standards being in the range of 1100-1200 back when the damage was still shown
seeing as the only defense AV really has is range, I see that as a terrible idea. |

That's only in the open, unless they're sniping from the back they won't be impossible to flank and they'd have very little short range defense being sniper fit
my sniping tank(my tanks are refitted militia for cost and skill point purposes) has small blaster turrets fitted for anyone deciding to get up in my face, and I only call it in when I have a squad willing to man the guns. |

My tanks ability to tank shots and leave, any driver who does not have at least 3 escape plans is bad. unless I get 3-5 shots from coordinated forges/swarms/vehicle nades(accounting for skill levels and damage mods) I can simply leave the area and get behind a hill/rock/building have the gunners cover one corner they can come around, use the main to cover the other.
if that much damage happens quickly enough that I could not even mount a defense then I was outmaneuvered. it means I need to get better, not scream that everything else needs a nerf. |

But it's not just a one sided complaint, crys of imbalance come from both pilots/drivers. That shows that there is an overall problem not one being over or under powered. Also how do you plan on not crashing every few seconds if you're driving while not watching the front
A. Third Person view
B. What me worry? they're cheap fits compared to a real tank and can still take quite a hit while providing firepower. |
