Preventing Grey Zone Camping Tanks

Its simple increase artillery strikes effectiveness vs armor and allow people to call down strikes on grey zone areas. This way if a tank is spotted camping someone can force it to relocate.

this would lead to spawn camping

The artillery strike might cause the tank to move, but why not just send in a plane or have another tank deal with them?

This in my opinion is the whole charm with the game that you need to combined warfare to win.

i’m more concern with the infantry spawn since that too is in the gray zone, and allow artillery to be called in the gray zone would lead to spawn camping

Agreed on this, dont need bunch of ppl spamming the spawn points with artillery.

But my prior answer was more to the point that you don’t need artillery into the gray zone as you can take care of those pesky tank campers in other ways :slight_smile:

I already suugested this somewhere else
Sends an AI controlled bomber to kill the tank
When to bomber finishes its job it goes to resupply point and despawns

There is command in the option that say “change artillery shell type”.

Maybe it’s already decided there will be AP shell in the game later.

Or you take a plane and bomb the camper.

If that slot isnt already taken up by an arguably much more useful tank

or why not remove the highly unrealistic tracer round from AT guns and the muzzel flash as one of the big things about AT guns was keeping them hidden

I would increase the arty shell damage against armor because I refuse to accept that a single det pack is way more effective than lot of high calibre HE shells

Problem is you are heavily restricted on where you can move due to their being a grey zone if it wasn’t for that you could swing around wide and flank the enemy but that’s not feasible for the dev’s.

This basically defeats the purpose of combined arms as one of the major tenants of it is maneuver warfare…

Also You are basically suggesting that you drop everything the moment you see a tank which is not really feasible.

Very limited ways honestly at times it seems like the devs are reaching beyond their means because they make tank sights super zoomed in to be more “realistic” when the maps are to tiny for them to fight effectively…

D day is spawn camping. You have a clear view of the beach while you hide. You are spawn camping while bitching about spawn camping. Cant handle what you dish out?

At least remove the pain field. If we can push right up to them, they deserve to be blown up. Having to sprint through 100m of pain field and trow a grenade 300m+ before god kills you is bullshit. If i can sneak through half a mile of battlefield 100+ troops and stick a charge on a tanks ass i should be able too. You cant give them the high ground supirior fire power and cover and give them unlimited troops a gray zone that we dont have and a pain field we dont have. You have all the advantages and you still complain

The situation of allowing shooting from the Gray Zone is an abuse that is not fair and needs to be improved, regardless of whether there are other ways (some extreme and absurd) to be able to reach and destroy the enemy that are in the gray zone.

They should make it so the defenders have to move into the battle field. If you hang out in the gray zone and hide behine the pain field for to long you die. Just like the invaders. When you capture a point the pain field forces you to move forward. If you stay and snipe from the previous point. The game kills you. This should be more like planetside 2. You should be able to go anywhere and do anything youre capable of. Having the enemy protected by god is just rediculous. People went behind enemy line in real life without being smoted by god. If your down a squad because one is sneaking up on the enemy. Thats not cheating .Its a tactic\Risk.
