Not a valid statement: picture from UAT back when Tank Autocannons were sniping without Visual/Audio from far away. It was practically an exploit. These days this is not doable unless the whole enemy team is so retarded that they want to be killed by your Autocannon.
IF there were people bored enough to stay with you in the Predator, they would have been bored out of their minds when they couldn't have fired from your spawning area and get kills. Utter murder. Actually, if the sponsons would have fired, your targets would fucking noticed you shooting them. Your kills would have been just 15.
If it's ok for you when a rhino + 2 meltaboys destroy your vehicles in the blink of an eye without loss of their rhino, then i don't know what to say to you. Which point exactly on which map can be effectively protected by tank? Could you please give me an answer on this simple question?
Like...most of them. You use tanks to guard exterior doors to points, and most maps have a track that tanks can patrol back and forth between point. But people don't want to learn to drive or how vehicles work because they get more XP/Req for running headlong into melee spam instead.
Does not change the fact that a co-ordinated squad storming a capture point is the most likely way of capturing points. Predators are pretty much just a small obstacle to be passed by, most of the time they are easily snuck by/destroyed or just plainly rushed through with minor casualities. I rarely see a Predator as a noteworthy combatant. I only see big pile of XP from an easy kill.
