Re: The laughable splash damage of tanks in 2042. Watch this.
@cso7777 You are saying "vehicles" as in plural and the use of a broad stroke for all. We are talking about the splash damage of the tank, just one vehicle. This is something I see constantly on this forum is the refusal to look at things on an individual bases and be lazy and just say "well all vehicles are crushing us!" when it's not the case.
If you're having constant run-in's with aircraft, or bolte's or etc. specify that, otherwise you'll be brushed off as someone who is trying to solo an armored vehicle with a knife, and complaining that you dont do damage.
The game is not "unplayable" for infantry, the highlights usually prove your observation wrong. And with the amount of verticality and freedom of movement in general, you may want to refine your statement to something that is more clear instead of trying to peg all vehicles as "crushing". This does not help anyones issue or gripe, besides trying to fan the dead flame, which is infantry players complaining about a combined arms game despite having a spawn system which allows for near unlimited adaptation if your entire squad is together and not wiped. A tank can fire it's main gun every 4.5-5 seconds (not aprox.), ontop of dealing with the quick overheat of its coax, the weapons stations also overheat, are clunky and are widely inaccurate if the tank is mobile. While I do agree the maps are rather open in some places, the lack of splash damage simply means you want easy risk free kills against ground targets in this case. This gripe to me, sounds more like a " I couldn't 1v1 -insert w/e here- so all vehicles are broken plz nerf and buff me instead"
This is not constructive, or good for gameplay, the video is clear enough to show there is an issue. Infantry have plenty of tools to deal with vehicles in general, and friendly vehicles to cover you (or at least they should), the game is hardly unplayable for infantry, you are simply asking for no pressure and no risks but want to be rewarded.
