Just 29? try 71 - 2 that was my record making run on Spearhead. my two deaths were only because some karen whiner rammed me into a spot i could not get out of twice.
I mean, The tank doesnt have much elevation and depression. If you're using mauler rounds which takes a while to reload per shot. The railgun tank only is good when it goes Hull down and snipes and thats pretty much it as its a very situational tank When it comes to objectives plays, A Regular tank is still better. And in all honesty if you're flying a jet in this game i think theres something wrong cuz jets are so ridiculously horrible in the state that its in.
@@colonelace2901 Dude is really trying to defend the railgun tank aka best anti air to ever exist in a BF aka vehicle ban machine by calling it situational💀
Only thing that could kill a jet before was another jet or a good sniper, jets just simply outrun aa missiles ,wildcat or lis missiles. I think this is completely balanced against jets, but heli are going to have problem.
@@colonelace2901 its a very specific niche of type of Armor, it does have weak points that can be very quickly exploited and overcome. The core problem is, DICE didn't think through the spawn system and people just got yeeted into oblivion. you spawn into a jet, heli or transport, you are motionless for just enough time for a TOR to splatter you across the map. if they go back to how BF2,3,4 and the likes work. you spawn out of sight. and guys, its a FUCKING RAILGUN, its going to have sheer firepower and range. but its offset by only 1 secondary gunner instead of 2 + a spotter.
After playing with this tank I’ve quickly figured out it’s not a close quarters tank. It’s a sniper by far. With any infantry around you’re a sitting duck. It’s slow turret speed keeps it from being a good up close fighter, but the firepower makes it worth playing. I respect it. It’s not easy to figure out how to properly play this tank but at the same time.. it’s fun lol
@@colonelace2901 THere's mechanics in this game that you can literally render that statement moot. You can stay in your base using this tank and no single infantry unit will be able to reach you. On standoff map, you can just stay in your base while your tank is elevated with the hillside rocks and you can just outright punish air units. The only one that's difficult to shoot down is nightbird
@@perilousintent2936eah but if its backlined like that... is it really a threat ? , Think about it thats one less tank in the fight which means u can focus ur efforts elsewhere, I've not had a single problem with railtanks. And thats a fact. If ur just going for air vehicles which they take a while to spawn btw, than they are only doing half the potential of the anti vehicle role they are meant to be doing. Air vehicles after so many ridiculous nerfs are just straight up dogshit nowadays that to me they're just so easily dealt with unless its some godtier pilot which is rare nowadays. At the end of the day, the tank is still very situational. Regular MBT's still have a better teamplay role. And all this....its just the fact.
@@colonelace2901 You really don't know how many games I've had with me as a railtank and watch the enemy complain about me sniping them out of the air. It really isn't hard to predict air units movements. You can have a friend with wildcat and every air units are gone. It really is broken. Silk even posted a vid about this very thing on how it's a problem. They literally replace Wildcats as the actual anti air. I'll give you one thing though. You're right, it aint much of a threat. but you render the team without air units. Railtanks shouldn't have been added in the game in the first place. Also, if you have not had a single problem with railtanks that's not a fact. that's an opinion as experience is your bias. before the season 5 where APS was unlimited. Not a single explosive was able to reach it. I've gotten to T1 EMK with almost little to no challenge. One of the easiest things to get T1. Of course that's just my opinion.
@@perilousintent2936thats literally your experience which isnt the case for me , Air units in 2042 are almost useless anyways, notice how they've been watered down nerf after nerf and only think worth using is a transport heli and even that got nerf literally everything on the planet can kill air units, just so happens the railgun tank kills them with absolute ease. Like i said majority of the times, they literally are in hulldown sniper positions. Not the front line. You wanna sit in deployment ? Sure.....that means i have 1 less tank to worry about. You push out....railgun becomes situation as its more anti vehicle than anti infantry, Which means infy would have a field day when they come close to the tank. I have 0 problems with railgun tanks just because i know how situational they are and how to deal with them if i need to. Its not like its "oh OP instant win kinda tank." Its Literally....and i mean literally only has one purpose in its anti vehicle role. Thats it. Give it any other situation you will quickly realise how shit it is. People literally complain about everything in this game so......Yeah i mean if you do well....people complain.....Do shit people complain....
Even on Orbital as well this kind of elevations around the maps like this should be looked at, Its similar to BFV's Aerodrome map where tanks usually love to sit at the sides on higher ground and just overlook flags.
It’s a great tank. It easily controls the vehicles on the map if used correctly giving infantry a better time when playing unlike when there is a heli hog somewhere who makes the server a living hell
The Only way to play Tank Warfare hearing all the Little Boyz and Grown men crying about the Tank destroying there toy planes with one hit in comment bellow mines is hilarious. Definitely gonna unlock this Upgrade an Nuke 🔘☢️🛑 some noobs Stellar work.
This is broken. I'm the worst tank operator imaginable. Hopped in one and went ham. Dice's new strategy is just seeing how many game-breaking things they can add to a single game
I miss this map. Ever since the nordvik event, its never in map rotation. Lately all im getting is discarded, Canadian mountain one, and orbital (AOW). Its starting to annoy me.
@colonel Ace did EA rework the Ammunition? i cant 1 shot the jets anymore...it always makes just 90% dmg... and im using the HHV-EMG Maul Ammo just like you! i can remember shooting down jets with 1 hit in the past, so wtf happend? didnt read any nerfs to the EMKV90 Tank or fucking buffs to broken ass jets!
Pro tip, before you do that take out the APS first. If the tank has activated APS or a Gadget APS is nearby it'll knock out the C5 of your drone. Which is why APS is a very strong gadget as it hard kills almost any kind of explosives.
I mean....i didnt put in UNCUT gameplay did i......Its just meant to show off the tank. Plus you're like over a year late on this video. You're more than welcome to make a video of your own featuring a full round :)

Yeah, absolutely crazy when you have a proper squad running the tank, engineers,APS,Extra Recoilless M5's incase you dont have enough mauler rounds for multiple close range vehicles. Crazy stuff
The fact that this tank is in the personal section of vehicles blows my mind
Right
They were to lazy to make different versions of it
Went 29-0 with this tank I can absolutely say this thing is amazing

They reduced the 1 hit kill range for heli's and jets. The further the target is the less likely you will do 100 percent damage.
