Because you were using a militia tank you idiot, my point was that if you actually use proto-fits you can take AV's fine, you don't even know the amount of tanks i can't kill in my proto-python with XT launchers because they are well fitted and better than stupid militia tanks, that's the entire point of SP spending to get better tanks that actually are useful, NOT MILITIA TANKS THAT ARE WEAK. If you are driving a militia anything you better expect to be destroyed by a **** load of things, because ITS A MILTIA ITEM.
My weak milita tank takes out the expensive tanks all the time. Its quite fun really, particularly on my alt who is actually skilled into tanks. I am primarily a logibro who deals with tanks on foot, so I am well away of just how easy they can go down. I have no problem running away from that 1 guy hiding behind a corner because I know if that was me I'd have nanos dropped and AV nades ready to fly. |

The fact that they can hit clean across the map is just super annoying, they hardly take down my dropship, unless its an enforcer, or two. They really they just deny the entire map. So I land and recall most of the time because its not worth loosing 1.1 mil on some worthless railgunner. Hell I think I have more respect for people who sit on turrets than people who redline tank, not by much, but still. Don't try and defend you're self by saying AV is broke, your just tring to feed your KDR. You're not helping the team push or fight or anything. You're not nearly as effective as snipers who are actually useful. I've seen some tankers actually fight and help their team. Some I actually can't kill and they manage to retreat back to the redline but only to get me off their back. I'm getting very tiered of not being able to fight back and just not being able to do what I skilled into. Which like serimos I have probably 7 mil sp into vehicles and dropships, because you HAVE to skill that far in to make them worth your time. Please remove the redline or make it so they get no points for kills in the redline please.
Because removing enemy tanks from the field is not helping the team in any way. |

Yep, run a few redline matches to pay for the tank you lose when you actually go out on the map, gotta love ducking into cover from swarms and having them stop, turn a 90 and hit you anyway[/quote]
I've been enjoying the invisible one quite a lot myself. |

Honestly it breeds incompitence. Rail tank snipers hardly know how to handle a combat situation, aside from well...sniping. even when they get brave, hell we even killed one just zerging it with light weapons. There is good tank piloting...and then there is rail tank sniping. Just like how there are good snipers who take up positions to lay down really good overwatch and relocate to help squads and there are mountain snipers who go 3/0 with a charge.
Who said anything about doing so solely from the redline? I sure didn't. |

You replied to a post talking about railgun snipers and how they are useless. I assumed that you were reffering to you're self as a railgun sniper. In the future please be more clear. Actually I think I just solved the problem of redline tanks for dropships. Does anyone know if the range on small railgun turrets is also unlimited like the tanks railgun?
Can't say I am not guilty of it either though. My tank alt has maybe 4 million SP. Can fly assult DS, LLAV, and has a mix of shield and armor skills. So my Soma isn't exactly overwhelming at the moment. So if there is a lot of proto AV flying around I'll need a good reason to wade into the think of it. But in the end it's 603K and if I think I have a chance at taking out another tank I'll risk it. |
