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)

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).

maybe you should play world of tanks.

That's right! Show those AR humpers what for! Don't let this game turn into CoD in space. They can nerf your tanks, but they can never nerf your FREEDOM!!!

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....

Tanker Tears = 3x as delicious as Infantry versions.

The bigger issue is the range of forges and other av weapons. the fact that they cant counter sniper tanks is a problem.

You seem unfamiliar with the concept of the red line.

I think EVE University might have a course explaining it, perhaps you should enroll?

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.

No, the fact we can't go out and play our role as a "Heavy Assault Vehicle" is a problem.

You sound AV hurt.



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.

Nah, I'm a Logistics, I take away the hurt. Speaking of which, I'm sorry to inform you, but your butthurt towards HAV is beyond my medical experience. Diagnosis: Too much CoD in your diet.

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.

Boi... I can hit a scout sniper in the head with my forge gun. So speak for yourself about not bein' able to snipe.

Tankers will be pleased to note the patch notes say marauder tanks are removed temporarily so theres hope for them making a return.

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....

599 meters away at absolutely no risk to myself.

Until an assault drop ship with turbo comes up behind and above you and blows your butt to dust.
