I just went 25/0 on Manus Peak with a railgun tank; never left went more than 200 meters from my red line and didn't zoom in for more than 4 of those kills. Keep in mind this tank was an absolute glass cannon (4000 shields, 1000 armor). Now, assaultman, is this what you wanted? Did you honestly ask for dirt cheap tanks that we can spam at you which can only be taken out by orbitals and other railguns because now that I get another zoom and damage bonus, it'll be even easier for me to get 6 kills in 6 seconds from 599 meters away at absolutely no risk to myself. I mean...really...it's not like you can blame me for being a kittycat when 4 AV nades, or 4 swarms, or 2 forges, or 1 good railgun, or 1 good forge will kill me. I am the harbinger of what is to come- and endless onslaught of untouchable long-range cannons which decimate anything you wish to bring out because honestly, I don't need a compressed particle cannon with 3 damage mods to kill your assault suit. Militia works just fine. Tanks forever! (or at least until they nerf our range bonus) |

This makes me feel slightly better about Uprising. I'm going to get so much hate mail about how I'm a coward for not coming out to fight as I go 20+ every game with no risk to myself. |

well...my KDR is gonna be 10.5 by December at this rate since now I don't even have to squint to see my target. They should just buff our range while they're at it since they troll the AR cod bois bc they hate rail snipers and they troll us bc we hate rail sniping |

well, enjoy the enjoyable but tanks aren't going to be that good, its pathetic to say here I am hiding from grenades and infantry held weaponry in my tank, a Heavy hidden vehicle to week to take on infrantry.....is this a tank where soldiers yell out warning "TANK! TANK INCOMING" g=and then call for air support or use a turret or other vehicle to take down while the infantry protect the AV vehicle or turret since its weakness is what's its victim is supposed to be strong to? no, tanks are tracked vehicles with a haul made up of paper money. |

Isn't one of the changes in uprising the flattening of the surrounding mountain ranges? It seems like they were trying to make an indirect fix to redline tactics like that. |

I don't meant to be the bearer of bad news. But neither of the enforcer tanks get bonuses to railguns.
Caldari get missiles, Gallente blasters with the new stat bonuses (It actually says blasters and not hybrid weapons). |

Hold that thought for when i get my hands on that suit with 2 Light Weapon slots.
Then come QQ again how unfair it is that i can mow down your infantry on the way to your tank, then swap to AV weapon + my proto AV nades.
Last time (yesterday) a team spawned 3 tanks, 5 minutes later we ate em....

Good luck dodging all the lasers, sniper rifles, mass drivers, scrambler rifles, (nerfed) ARs, and HMGs on your way to the tank. Oh, and the tank will probably see you before you see it. |

Have you seen the new flat terrain maps? i guess you did not, and last time i checked i can still make my ammo step into the red zone and with their 5000 HP tanks ill need to have my ammo into the red zone twice.

I guess in your mind a HAV means able to take hits from 16 AV people at the same time, while going WHAAAAAA on the trigger killing em all in one fell swoop.
Be glad tanks aren't modeled after real tanks, witch die after 1 direct hit from any AV weapon. |

OHSHIT REALISM. Welcome to a Game.
No, I'd like it to require teamwork to take me down (Since I'm always told to run with a squad of infantry that should be covering me, which I do.) rather than be solo'd by a single guy. |

Can we get this to a more adult level of discussion please?
So IRL Tanks die to 1 two phase Javlin. A tank costst about 40 - 60m, while a javlin cost 80k for a rocket and 40k for the mount.
That said, this is not RL. So what kind of mechanics would you like to be implemented to make the hole Tanking and Antitanking gameplay fun to use and at the same time fun to be used on?
i think everyone agrees that one tank owning an entire map is counterproductive, same goes for one AV guy who can lock down an entire map for tanks.

Shouldn't be possible for one person to solo a tank, especially considering how much they cost ect in comparison. But since tanks are losing toughness hopefully it'll be a case of blasters one hitting infantry. |

I like seeing like this, proto heavy with a FG and AV gear costs 400k ISK, a proto tanks with decked out gear as well meant for HP resistance rather then damage done costs 3,200,000 ISK so the tank is one eight (ok I`m bewildered, how do you spell 8th) but out of ten game who would win? well logically cost wise the tank should win 8 out of ten, now role wise it should be lowered to 5 out of 5, yes the proto FG is an AV he is 1 man alone, tanks should be "oh there is a tank, I`ll change load-outs no biggy" no it should be "TANK! tank incoming!" then you use an ANTI TANK GUN/TURRET (they tend to be impossible to hold by 1 fat man because the amount of armor they pierce) or call in air support, a team of AV infantry can handle a tank as well but not 1 man under most circumstances. Yet, I noticed CCP placed tanks under LAV operation.... funny CCP... funny.... |

I've done suicide runs into the redline for snipers, why should HAVs be any different? There's actually more incentive to do it for a HAV, more points and potentially more kills. |
