There needs to be better anti tank early on, i have had explosion packs go off under tanks and nothing happens, yet they can drive around and ram you a good 2 meters off the model of the tank itself.
Remove the grenade indicator while you are driving the tank also, its stupid that i can sense when a grenade is close to me when i can see only through ports.

Indeed early Anti-Tank game is borked heavily in favor of Tanks Detpacks most of times wont even damage tanks even if landing under!

Grenade indicator is to counter player who cannot properly use their explosion packs - you need to cook it for a while before throwing. If you do that, tank has no chance to escape.

Be thankful you have those explosive packs at all, as in reality you would have to rely on towed AT guns, AT rifles, or other tanks. Actual AT grenades were not overly common, or particularly successful.
As for the game, we don’t want this turning into a ‘everyone can beat a tank on his own with ease’ situation, even though we’re already halfway there with the packs as it is. Tanks should require effort to destroy, not some damned yokel spamming an “I Win!” McGuffin every few seconds!

I would agree. Having AT on everybody will just ruin the game for any tankers and will eliminate the requirement of working together with the team. The only thing they could do is make Explosion Packs be bit more consistent with their damage. Currently even under a belly they are unpredictable at best.

Right now everybody is forced to carry at weapons or they get destroyed by tanks. And i dont mean just killed, tanks would just spawn r*** everyone

The explosion pack is good. One can destroy the early tanks. Try to cook the nade (The character throw it automatically) and just aim to the back, or the side of the tank. Then BOOM. Working 85-90% when the tank not mooving.
The problem is starting when the tank starting going around. Then, you need to calculate

Well, it is good. Tanks are supposed to be a threat. Mark it for your teammates. Build an AT gun, Sneak up to it with explosive pack, Bomb them with a plane, Take a Tank out and kill it yourself - The game has a lot of ways to kill tanks.
Now imagine a scenario where everyone is running around with AT grenades and Bazookas (looking at you Heroes and Generals). Tanks would be just annoying rather than an actual force to be killed by.

I would bomb said tank with plane or use rockets if my teams would spot sure thing I cant spot a thing when needs to be 150m from ground to see anything wich is stupidly unrealistic. Majority will anyway waste detpacks for infrantry instead of tank!
Tanks are not supposed to be 1 man army who alone conquers whole opposing nation
It will be really fun after they implement ptrs.
I dont think the issue is so much a tank it’s the spam of tanks. Just a constant flood of Pumas

I shouldn’t be thankful for basic game mechanics, if you have playable armour you must have a way to beat it. This is a game, not reality so don’t justify your response with limitations that don’t apply here.
What i said was early game AT is not working as intended, so a better early AT system needs to be used.
And a tank that kills hundreds of people is fine? Lets hope they keep dynamite cause the usual tank or plane player is someone who want an easy farm IN EVERY GAME.
Considering tanks why I see them places where they shold not be or could go like slopes on normandy? Gotta fix that and yes also allies cheat now in normandy you can perfectly fine flank from sides in normandy!
You have plenty of ways to beat them, far more than the average soldier in the actual war had available to them. Use your brain, use what you are given, and you will beat the tanks. I do it all the time, I’ve even started tank hunting on purpose.
Infantery is super effective vs tanks. I love smashing them when they stop to shoot

LUL nah! I have literally thrown 4 packs under a freaking PUMA and it didn’t kill it while just sitting in place. Believe me I have played this game for tons of hours already and I have fought MANY tanks. In open beta alone I have already killed 60 tanks. They are incredibly jank it is soooo inconsistent. Even better yet my PIAT has even had more random kills/hits that did something or absolutely nothing to a PUMA. I have been in the Sherman and shot a puma in EVERY single side top and bottom and I have had it do absolutely nothing. They need to work on the armor/pen values more than anything.

If you’re shooting a puma in a sherman and not one hitting it you’re doing it wrong

Nowhere did I say I missed at all. Every single shot hit and every explosion pack that I am talking about has went under the tank. Missing and it not effecting the target are two separate things. If I have already killed over 50+ tanks with it actually working believe me I can spot the difference.
