Most of the tank drivers need to realize they aren't special just because their stuff is expensive, so they aren't entitled for their vehicles to work much more differently than everything else.

and you need to realize that tanks aren't dropsuits or dropships. I know we aren't special, that how we allow our teams to win if we try to help.

HAVs ARE vehicles, so they should be subject to the same rules as the rest of them.

We have assult dropships, they have a gun turrent, no doubt there will be other vehicals with driver weapons etc, it shouldnt be a problem, i dont see why it is, i think the only point i have on this is.. theres no benifit to driving a tank solo it doesnt need that kind of nerf, which is what it would be

i could image the tears and tanks nerfs that would follow if all tanks had 3 people shooting proto cannons at them lol although it does sound quite fun and im pretty sure mine might last a bit longer

I have PRO turrets on my tanks. What do I get for that?

Right now, HAVs seem to be the main issue people are arguing about. Drivers say that it should take several AVers to down one, while AVers also argue that 1 person should able to be beaten by 1 person. I personally think that the driver's seat of the HAV needs to be separate from the main turret, and they should get a buff to eHP. That way, HAVs and AVers will both need teamwork. As a anti social lone wolf, that would mean my speccing into tanks would be worthless, as i would either have to let some random drive my tank and no doubt loose it, or drive him around while he racks up the kills, which doesnt sound like much fun Given that the game already rewards tankers to work as team with 3 men in it (look outs, gunners), im already at a disadvantage by not squading with capable people, which is my choice, as it should be, the game does and should reward teamplay, but not force it down our throats "just for the record, although i play on my own, i do drive around with the team and protect (try) while they cap objectives etc"

And you want to know the difference between the driver controlling a large turret and a small turret? I dont even know how to answer this lol are you serious?

I admit, this argument would be much easier if devs would release the "one-man only" vehicles already. sandbox? At the moment anyone can jump in my tank, troll me or help me, but what if no one jumped in it as sometimes no one does lol then i just drive round with the bleak weapon?

What do I get for that? i guess given were on the internet, the standard answer would be, cookie? Are the small proto missile turrents as rubbish as the standard ones, or are they noticeably better? And to the dudes that blatently want to solo a tank coz theres only one driver in it, yes Mcboso (i pray for the other dudes in that corp your not leader) and popwhatever im looking at you guys, forge gun, high tower where i cant see you, watch me drive around like a confused idiot while you single handedly murk my machine

AND WHAT lol its a ******* tank .. come on, it cost 8 times as much as your suit, get over it , im not saying it should take 4 plus guys to deal with one, but 2-3, hell yeah, its a TANK I joined a match the other day with a whole team of reds, vs about 8 blues, the red team had capped everything and a chunk had gone out of the timer, our team slowly filled up, my alt has tanks, and a milita swarm launcher lol red team has two maddys out, i dont fancy fighting them in my glass cannon logi, so took the swarm launcher to high ground with another SL guy, i have no idea how many of our team were useing swarms or other av, but there was at least 4 of us, but maybe more we pushed them two maddys all the way to redline, and basicly kept them in a corner of the map, while all the late joining blues capped all points, even E near reds spawn, and we fecking won, and thats with less frontline dudes due to av fits being out Also, on my main as AR user , frontline all the way, ive never had a issue with tanks, i dont expect to solo them, i avoid them like the plauge, there fecking BIG enough and SLOW enough to just keep out of the way untill someone has delt with them And also about the whineing about 3 dudes to take a tank down, you know, you could always bring your own tank out? lol and guess what, it works with one user!!!!
