We the vehical players are not enjoying dust anymore, nearly all the veteran closed beta vehical players do not play dust any longer, and i can say in 100% confidence that there is not a single vehical user that enjoys dust anymore sence uprising. In fact, for the vehical players, we would be so much happier if we threw out all the work done in Uprising and reverted to Chromosome. Srly, Uprising is a regression. To keep us around and vehicals in New Eden, i am making a list of the decive moves that will properly balance vehicals. Feel free to correct or add anything, intelligent vehical and AV vets.
Dropships These peices of junk needs an overhual, if we had these in real life they would not be considered for Air Force One. The promblem is they get one or two hitted by forge guns and rails, depending on how maxed out your ship is. Give these guys abit more fitting so they can raise their deffences abit, or some more base HP. Dont really need any more slots, those can go a long way on a DS. Also, the DS noise announces very clearly were they are, they can no sneak up on tanks or anyone very well. Its very annoying.
Lavs Their more survivable than tanks! should not be happening, these things tank like a monster. Word on the forums is the collision damage is broken as well, not good. These things are meant to ride around and have the gunner get alot of kills, but no one does this because that tactic sucks too much for it to be reliable, you will never see in this in pubs, let alone in a PC match. So, make the lav skill give bonuses to small turrent stats. Range, Rof, damage, something. Also, scout lavs apperantly are not good enough to be used over the Logi Lavs. Need more torque is all i can comment, i dont use them.
Tanks Shield tanks are poop. Straight up, poop. Armor tanks are fairly balanced atm tho, hoepfully they do not recive the armor rep nerf. If they do, they will be worse than shield tanks because the already godly AV does ample damage to them. This "bug fix" can not happen because it actually balances the tank. It needs to be there! Other than that the armor tanks is pretty fair. A ligit, reliable and beatable tank. Balanced.
Shield tanks on the other hand, are not balanced. The only thing they have going for them are the explosive resist, the regenerating shields are too slow to be significant, there will be Lavs with more natural regen than these failtreds and this cannot happen. Buffing the natural regen to 35-50 would be something reliable and not quiet rediculas. Also, shield tanks active reps are not worth using, you will be handicapted for using these. Right now they last 10 seconds for a 30% DMG reduction with a cool down of 30 seconds. Only change needed is the active time, needs to increase from 10 seconds to 30-40. Not quiet as awsume as armor tanks but it would at lease be worth using. Also, due to dramatically lower CPU/PG amounts compared to the armor tanks, shield tanks can not fit ADV or Proto stabalized blasters or regulated railguns, even with the assistance of 2 proto PG extenders. There simply is not enough fittting avaiable to make this possible, these metal boxes need ethire another low slot or more base fitting to have the luxary of having a variety of fittings. Right now its not possible.
General vehical notes:
Gameplay & balance > Lore > Common sence > Real life. In Eve, heavy armor gallenete ships are faster than weightless sheild Caldari tanks. All good cuz its space, gravity and weight are not a factor. Also good because it balances well in Eve. In dust, we are on planets. Weight and gravity are factors here. It is not good that heavy armor tanks are faster than weightless sheild tanks. Considering how much better the armor tanks are in every aspect of tanking, it is not good for the balance to continue having armor tanks faster than shield tanks.
Fitting Although armor tanks have lots of PG, vehicals as a whole do not have much at all, in many situation it simply is not possible to have certain fits. Why have mods/ weapons if low fitting is stoping us from using them? We need more fitting.
Vehicals need locks! it is far too common for ppl to stay in your vehical and get you blown up because they will not leave when your about to die. You cant recall and you loose lots and lots of isk. Why would a vehical user want to play in this environment? needs to happen
AV is way too strong for our standard vehicals Were pretty boned, dropships are getting one shotted out of the sky (the very best, top of the line drop ships die on the second) and our tanks die before they can turn around and escape. We cant even kill ppl with assualt rifles because we are so weak that grenades can easily and reliably kill us. None of this is okay, we need AV balance or stronger tanks |

uh... no. gtfo. its ppl like you who destroy classes. see how the post is called " infaintry GTFO" ? were done making tanks easy mode for infaintry. were balancing it now |

the title of this thread is called "Player request for 1.4 patch (keep in mind, this is a vehical patch. Infaintry gtfo)". stop talking about dropsuits and GTFO. It clearly says infaintry GTFO |

If tanks can not travel in the red line they would be forever traped by invisible instalations, equally invisible forge gunners/swarmers on top of sky scrapers, and rail tanks. Also, tank drivers would never have a place to be call their vehicals in, they would always be in danger queing them up, EXPESCIALLY when their teams being redlined. Wtf are you talking about bro? get out of here Strange, i thought this was in the general channel. But of course, you don't want to balance your vehicles, which is why you don't want infantry commenting with their opinions. Cause you know, balancing is a one sided coin that ignores all other aspects of the game, right? Also, they "hope" to get the vehicle patch in by 1.4, but since its so large it might not happen till 1.5. Aaaand you won't be getting your god mode tank requiring 3 proto AV's to focus fire just to bring you down. The are changing how vehicles and AV works. No one wants god mode tanks like you had in chromosome (except you tankers of course), and we certainly don't want tank drivers to be forced to spend 6 months just to skill for a fit that won't pop when an AVer sneezes in their general direction. Point is, the vehicle patch is going to be a balancing patch on both sides of the spectrum, not a buff to make already properly fitted tanks that take 6 forge gun shots (at the least) to take down, even more durable. Balance
your forge gun sucks alot of ass cuz proto forges kill very quickly. And no, as it says in the OP intelligent AV players are encouraged to post, not just any tard who thinks its a good idea to make sure tanks cant enter the redline, i just pointed out all the promblems of that. Also, were not asking for God mode tanks were asking for balance, as stated in the OP. If we wanted Godtanks we would be demanding buffs all across the board |
