That’s cause you desert any match where you fight anything other than bots lmao.

The grey zone is an exploit of game mechanics. Its intent is to prevent spawn farming by denying enemy access, but tanks remaining in it is exploiting that. No other combined arms game has an out-of-bounds protection zone where tanks can shell default spawns. It’s poor game design and should be fixed.

nah… i only desert on conquests… and roflstomps that happen when stacked players come in game…

There is nothing to fix except to give a bit better At gun to the engineers to build but cost more resources and fix guerrilla not being able to reach infantry spawn that kills them when they try to get close to enemy tank.

f2p players also need second vehicle slot. that way they can take tank and plane and can deal with anything.

I’m struggling a bit here.
Grey zone tanks are a problem … how ?
In BR 1 ? Cause any tank in above BRs i just getting bombed by the air as soon as its spawns.

I can only think of two maps where tanks can “gray zone” snipe and not get bombed - due to tunels to hide in. But then again each side has tanks - so dunno maybe mark the tank for your own force ?

Then again i really dont care either way - just find it funny anyone see tanks as “danger”. Most of the time they have shorter life span than infantry squad especially on higher BR’s.

You know I do, the thing is, I’m the only tanker on my team who knows what he’s doing and can ping tanks without having to be asked where the enemy’s tank is.

Let me paint a picture for you. You’re playing BR II Germany, you get uptiered, however, your team is still BR I and BR II, but the enemy has BR III stuff, including Sherman’s, you’re the only man with a Vehicle that can easily kill them (15 cm sIG), but they all grey zone camp at an angle where you’ll be exposed before you can attack them or even spot them, team mates are no help due to only have Panzer IVs with short barrels and Panzer IIIs. You are all your team has to destroy these grey zone camping tanks, that can take a beating in a down tier. The Sherman’s just HE spam the point while some infantry camp back with them just in case they move up too far. Your team can do nothing because they lack the proper AT equipment and aren’t the best at marking tanks, another loss. That’s why I hate it, I’m the only one who can kill these tanks and when my things open topped and lightly armored with limited horizontal traverse with a long reload, you should get the idea on how annoying it is.

Assuming I cant deal with greyzone tanks is incorrect
Calling me skill issued is a really good argument, its in good faith and adds a lot
You’re thinking of other clans, plenty of EVA players play mostly solo, or sometimes duo. It gets boring playing in a 3-4 stack and winning every game every time

Okay, and then they respawn a new tank immediately and continue shelling the objective, denying your team any capability of capturing
So, you have to stay in your plane repeatedly removing them and hope that your team can play whilst you are not supporting them in the objective
And then what happens if your plane is shot down? You need to bring multiple in a lineup to continue destroying the tank that infantry cannot.
It’s pretty easy to understand the many issues that the abuse of the greyzone adds to the game, as well as compounding the issue of vehicle balance being towards extremely overpowered.

It is simply a flaw in the game design, calling others skill issued over pointing that out leads me to believe you are projecting in some way. Furthermore, if an issue doesnt affect “you” specifically, why do you care? You are not benefiting or losing out by the greyzone being fixed, since you claim to not abuse it, and claim it doesnt hinder you.

So you want some artificial buff to fix stupidity or what? If your team sucks that hard it would be a loss regardless of if they have a tank or not.

At the end of the day it still should be the better team that wins the match in a multiplayer game.

Exept tanks kinda need a bit of time to move in to the perfect position to cut off the enemy team again. There really are just a few maps where the tank spawn LOS is actually usefull so on most maps you do can buy your team some time to cap.

Everyone hates stackers, that’s obvious. But greyzone vehicle users are smart enough to either have a friend accompany them or have multiple vehicles slots. I was playing some Tunisia the other day and these two guys were cycling M10 GMCs and Sherman 105s. Obviously, other players took them down but then they attack our tankers using their planes and boom they are back at their BS again and they were able to ascertain our position because they were stacking and receiving callouts so this issue affects both sides, you fucking dipshit moron.

The fix for greyzoning that people complain about is getting their head out of their ass and learn how to bomb or just suicide bomb in a plane.

And along with the people wasting the plane slot getting their head out of their ass so they can be bombed.

Tanks without infantry support in close range are a death trap.

I play with a squad mate and try to support his tank when he’s in urban fighting and it works well… but when i’m doing my thing and occupied i’d much rather have him in the greyzone as i can’t defend him.

Not everyone has a plane slot, have you ever considered that shit? If F2Ps had the ability to get one plane and one tank, we probably wouldn’t have this conversation

If you’re going to complain about greyzoners then use your vehicle slot for a plane.

It’s that simple and you made some actual BS argument as to why it’s not… “not everyone has a slot”

Yes… you quite literally do.

you can choose to take your tank and farm kills and then bc plain about the GZ… or you can take the plane and use it when you need it.

It’s a trade off… it’s what you deal with by being F2P.

See dont really want to argue but I just have to point few things in your post.

“You’re playing BR II Germany, you get uptiered, however, your team is still BR I and BR II, but the enemy has BR III stuff”

Mind clarifying this statement ? Somehow your team is BR 1-2 but the enemy has BR 3 ? I’m struggling with that. But sure lets go with it.

First and foremost the Sherman can be damaged by plenty of BR 2 german tanks - especially the most deadly and fastest of them the Puma. But lets ignore the ground power. Have you ever heard about the Ju 87 R-2 ? 500 kg bomb … in BR2. Even if there is air power on the enemy team you can still roll over and bomb the crap out of the enemy.

“Your team can do nothing because they lack the proper AT equipment and aren’t the best at marking tanks”

I think you yourself just outlined the issue is related to skill - “arent the best at marking tanks”. You mean they cant mouse over and press V on a tank ? If they struggle with that - maybe the defeat was deserved ?

“I’m the only one who can kill these tanks and when my things open topped and lightly armored with limited horizontal traverse with a long reload, you should get the idea on how annoying it is.”

Sound like a failure on your end. You went with open top anti-INFANTRY SPG with a plan to farm kills. All my factions are armed with a good anti armor tank. And from the sound of it - you were also nowhere near the front line.

But then again as i said - cant care less. Just find it funny that people would find a tank in BR1+ to be a problem for wining the game.

That just adds another issue to the mix. There aren’t always grey zoners in every match, not every map is good for planes regardless and planes as a whole are bad at fire support and maintaining pressure on an objective since autocannons have low explosive radius and a limited payload that needs to be constantly resupplied. Just let F2Ps have one tank and one plane, it’s that fucking easy. I dunno why you’re BSing and thinking that’s not necessary

All i’m doing is calling out the inability for the players who complain about this issue to do anything about it.

You don’t need that and i don’t think it’s healthy… i don’t want the average player personally even thinking of cycling two vehicles.

Also… that’s TWO out of four? (mayb you get 5 i can’t remember forgive me) Slots occupied by a vehicle? You see the issue? Because if you don’t then there is another issue that lies deeper.
