I think tankers have a right to complain.

I think tankers have a right to complain.

Yes, tankers do have a right to complain but what is currently happening is they are complaining about something that hasn't yet happened or even been announced as if it has been officially confirmed but it hasn't, so calm down and take a moment to realise the truth.

CCP has said they will fix the "bug"
IF we are not vocal about how we don't want the "bug" to be fixed, how the **** will they know that this is not what they want? Honestly, people that complain about people complaining is something I just don't understand, yes it hasn't happened yet, so what? We sit around until they do change it and then we can complain? Or we tell them No, this isn't what we want, and then they don't change it?

[BUG] Vehicle armor reps repair 3x what they should https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=90289&find=unread
Status: A defect on this has been reported and a fix planned for in a future update.

I'm just putting this here, and I've even bolded a key bit of information from a post from Cmdr Wang. So yes, we have a right to complain, and no we don't need to "calm" down either, they "fix" the problem and Armor Tanks are done, this coming from a Shield Tanker.

You think you survive six shots from my rail madrugar?

And Im not complaining about complainers, Im trying to calm people down.

Just remember CCP's track record with balancing decisions.

Remember how Breach AR's where the only useful variant? Look at their current state.
Remember how well dropships worked a few builds before? I guess lightning does strike twice.
Remember the days when people used Laser Rifles for other purposes than illumination? Bad luck for those people I guess.
Remember the state of missile turrets after the massive nerf they received? This has been fixed in the meantime, but it was pitiful.

CCP has an impressive history with bad decisions so I absolutely understand anyone who thinks they need some help in the not-do-stupid-things department.

Personally, I've come to term with the little derp-moments CCP has about once a month. I just spread my SP out over a few roles and adapt to whatever currently works. But I feel for those who specialized into a role that is later turned invalid. Especially since CCP usually takes about half a year to fix it's own mistakes.

Aww cack, well now I look the fool - I stand corrected. I swear that wasn't there the first time I read it...

However, my initial point still stands. You do still need to calm down and stop assuming you all know what this 'fix' will be because you have no idea at all.

When you read the description of an Armor Repper, it reps only 1/3 of what it currently does, one would assume that the fix would be restoring that. As this is the intended armor reppage (Reppage? That's not even a real word, get out of here Jason.), then one would guess CCP would simply do that.

If that comes about, Armor is done, they won't be able to stand against AV and they'll struggle against Shield Tanks.

Yes, if that happens armor tanking will be as bad as shield tanking now is but that is a hell of an assumption. They could much easier just change the description like they did to fix the problem with the PG skill before (and yes I know that didn't help tanks but that's besides the point).

against a blaster tank its not the shots but how long you can survive. shield tanks are easier to chew through with blasters than railguns. and i personally prefer blasters.

This is CCP, one must assume the worst, because if you don't you're going to be very disappointed.

I shall simply refer you to my previous post on this:

All CCP said is that a defect has been filed. This is right and correct to do but does not necessarily mean that they are going to change it to how it is described ingame and cut the reps to 1/3 the current rate. The 'defect' may well be in the description and they could fix that instead. No one has any idea what CCP are going to do to rectify this situation, so stop assuming they are going to completely ruin tanks because it's not a foregone conclusion.

CCP knows there are problems with HAVs but there's been no mention of what they are going to do with any of it, so stop jumping to conclusions.

I think the bug will/should be fixed. It would bring Madrugers in line with Gunlogis. This though would leave both tanks in a rough spot against AV. Hopefully they then buff both resulting in the two tanks being balanced against each other and AV.

STFU. If anything, shields should be buffed.
