Honestly, having been a tanker from way back in august (close to the start of closed beta) and seeing the ups and downs of CCP's decisions on tanks, i find that there are only minor adjustments to this kind of thing that would help. You could make tanks cheaper, that's probably not gonna happen. You could make Av nades less of a problem by dropping the damage. One guy with Av nades and nanohives can blow up most tanks by himself, yeah so he uses 100,000 Isk worth of Equipment and blows up a 3 million isk tank. That's absolutely brilliant, but a good tanker wont just stand there. Its occasionally you get the not so bright guys who go running in like manics. You could buff shield tanks a bit, seeing how they have less PG now, they're repair modules are and always have been slower than armor tanks, and they are slower or equal speed wise making them completely inferior tank on tank. You could balance AV weapons, Proto swarms and Proto Forges doing more damage than any Tank weapon or installation in the game with a couple damage mods, yes because that's not broken? lol I know CCP will fix some things, because in the past they have. Last build tanks and AV stuff was pretty balanced in my eyes. But now we are back to after the days of Bad Furry, when tanks were getting owned by one man in an LAV with a Forge. Or on top of a building with Forge guns that shoot dead straight and with incredible distance. That odd graphics bug really is making snipers and rail-gun tanks life hard when you cant see people 300 meters away who are literally wide in the open. Come on now. But patience is a virtue. In due time. Because hell i'm still waiting for artillery turrets. Who remembers when those had a space on the market? So CCP make every tankers life better. Re-balance the AV stuff just a bit, give us the option to Lock are doors, because noobs love to run off with 2.5 million dollar tanks, and while your at it look at the proto forge gun that does more than any rail gun in the game? Or hey re-install our proficiency skills? Everything else has them why not us? What about the Sagaris and Surya? Whats the new thing with them? Gonna make them 1.2 million for an extra low or high slot? yeah.. because that's worth skilling into. :D |
