If this has been posted before...I don't care, I just want to vent.

The APC missile is a joke, it takes two to take out a tank. The reload time is BS it dosn't take THAT LONG TO PUT A DAMN MISSILE IN A TUBE, even if it did, a direct shot to the treads, back of the tank should TAKE IT OUT. By the time you've reloaded your rocket, shot at it a million times with your main cannon, he's shot you twice and killed you. I'm tired of the tanks DOMINATING THE APCs. Give us a chance. Geez

Yes, if a rocket hits a tank in the treads, the fu*ker dosn't keep rolling, it stops. Oh nevermind. I don't care anymore.

lol
i get so pissed off cus a humvee can't kill an apc.. i'm like "dude wtf... give me a chance!"

apc gives you speed and firepower to eliminate infantry with ease as well as transport a large number of troops

tank is supposed to be able to easily dominate other vehicles on land, it's strength is that it's strong

it's called a fucking trade off for balance and guess what, it makes the game worth playing.

Good point ... but once again, it's not designed as a killer APC , but a transporter.

I can take out a tank no problem. The tank is at full health. In the apc i aim for the front tread and shoot the missle when i know its right boom it blows up. I did it to this one guy and he thought i was hacking and so i got kicked.

You want to hear lame? How about the fact that both the transport choppers and attack choppers can take a direct hit from a tank round in any spot and not only not explode into a million pieces, they are usually only near half life from it. You come face to face with a cobra that is about to light you up. You get a shot off straight into the cockpit glass. Guess what? You get lit up and he flies away probably not even smoking.

Tank shots leave attack heli's with 3 bars of health, 1 bar away from death.

Nob.

By the posters logic, tank shells should eviscerate an APC in one shot, as they would IRL.

yeah i really don't care about the tank/heli thing either
i'm happy with tanks being the absolute toughest land vehicle.. i'm happy that two apcs can easily kill a tank.. and i'm happy that a decent helicopter pilot can kill a tanker of equal skill.. i'm happy to have the coaxil machine gone so that i can take a chopper out after i do put a shell into it.

Aparently you missed the name of it. It's called an 'Armoured Personnel Carrier'. Not and FTC = Fucks up Tanks Carrier.

Secondly an APC has the advantage over a distance. So don't cry because you don't know what you are doing. Stop rushing tanks like an idiot and going WHY DIST I LOSE AGIN!?!

Tanks aren't that powerful. 3 AT hits at the same time and... welcome to the respawn point... again
The only thing that I don't like about APC is that it moves back too slow.

Actually it only takes 2 AT hits on a tank to kill it. But, you have to hit it square-on in the front treads.

If you're smart about how you use your armor, 2 - 3 APC's are near impossible to kill. The only thing that can kill them (in most cases) is a Laser guided missle, a TV missle, a lot of AT people, mines, or C4, or a lot of opposing armor. But if you're good, most of this won't be a problem.

The key is to all be engineers and stay SIDE BY SIDE as much as possible. When you see a tank, both aim right for the treads and he'll be dead before he even knew what hit him.

Oh snap !!! I so want to be able to do that, I sometimes help out by runing behind the tank and repairing him, but what would be cool is if I could go over and de-repair the enemies tank/APC

Sounds to me like you're trying to go one on one with a tank. I'm going to go ahead and open myself up to a good ass raping here and point out the obvious...you can't just slug it out against armor. If you have the advantage (i.e. you see him, but he doesn't see you) use some hit and run tactics. However, if he sees you...pop smoke and run like hell...now that you have successfully gotten away (have you?), you can plan out how to turn the table. Use speed to your advantage and you will find success...and it also helps to be an engineer...self reliance
