I was going to make this point as well. The Striker was the reason the TR felt comfortable on foot outside. It had nothing to do with the tank, other than the fact that a bunch of noobs ran around on foot rather than pull a tank. Take away the lock on weaponry and that would likely change.

If the prowler had a main gunner secondary weapon of another 15mm, I would say it was reasonably balanced. But since it lacked that gun the extra gunner was required to handle the scenarios which a Magrider & Vanguard could handle with only two gunners.
For PS2 as long as they balance the capabilities of each tank and give the prowler the same sort of advantages - higher dps, lower damage-per-shot, and the fast speed, along with matching any alternate weapons for the driver as the vanguard then it will truly be an equal. If they want to add additional gunnery seats beyond that, great, but they can't balance the tank around having that gunner. It doesn't scale. |

No one ran prowlers. If you wanted to run MBTs on a nightly basis, you rolled VS or NC, plain and simple.
The only people defending the prowler are those I've unsurprisingly never heard of. I guess defending the worst tank is supposed to make you sound good on a forum. Obviously the Prowler design wasn't "fine" as it is completely absent from PS2, and has been replaced with a much smaller, much faster tank. |

I ain't never heard of you, either. Werner hey? That explains the loser defeatist rhetoric. |

If you're not addressing that but instead addressing the "never heard of you" part I can only surmise that you agree with the point he made and have conceited. I always knew you'd come around! You're still here? Last edited by BuzzCutPsycho; 2012-03-16 at 02:03 PM. |

If you were bad, fine. Don't blame it on the equipment. I never once felt under powered in a Prowler. My outfit was good, so we pulled armor. Sorry if you didn't have a similar experience. Last edited by Aurmanite; 2012-03-16 at 02:14 PM. |

Smallest outfit on the leaderboard by a huge margin. How we we able to keep up to outfits with 3 times as many players? We weren't scrubs (like some of you.) We pulled armor and killed motherfuckers dead. Last edited by Aurmanite; 2012-03-16 at 02:23 PM. |

That was my experience against enemy armor as TR. As you can see I couldn't care less. It was just much easier to shred TR armor than VS / NC.
EDIT: I'd also like to add that the TR never had any outfits worth a shit pulling tanks and running armor. The bulk of TR outfits were either air cav or galaxy centered. Why do you think that is? I know for a fact that the NC had the best armor outfits available and VS had their niche with an outfit or two as well. Actually I can even name the outfits for each empire that did specialize in armor and did it well. NC: IRONFIST VS: GOTR TR: MYSTERY?????? Both factions with properly functioning tanks had armor based outfits while the TR (with their inferior tanks) had none. Last edited by BuzzCutPsycho; 2012-03-16 at 02:36 PM. |

Neither of those videos so any god damn tactics at all. 2 minutes of people shooting phoenix rockets...mind blown.
This thread ain't about personal accomplishment (if it were you obviously wouldn't have anything to post.) Our outfit started on day 1. How about yours? It sounds to me like none of you had a lot of success with the Prowler. I had a shitload. Are you saying you aren't capable of playing as well as me? It wouldn't shock me if you weren't based upon these whiny tryhard posts. |

Hard concept I know.
As fun and amusing as that was Prowlers/Vanguards/Magriders didn't shift the tide of continent battles. I wouldn't expect you to understand though.

It would be fantastic if you guys could stay on topic rather than calling me out. Are you 12?
That last TR video cut off just as you all got bombed off the hill. The video showed an entire group of you sitting on a hill killing maybe 3 vehicles. Blown away. Last edited by Aurmanite; 2012-03-16 at 02:59 PM. |
