If that would be true, then just as tank is supposedly enjoyed by both other PFCs and benos, then T3s being powerfull should allow PFCs and T1s to enjoy the game too just because they exist and have a lot of power. Instead, it takes away power from one and kills the other. I see no benefit in that.
It simply doesn't work this way. Just because tank affects somehow your gameplay, doesn't mean you get to actually experience and enjoy the tank as a PFC, or beno. We could in theory make super marine robocop, give it 1000 HP, fast speed, gun with a lot of damage, stun immunity, good armor etc, but only one player each round gets it. Then make super beno with pretty much the same state. They will both wipe out other less powerfull players. Will that be enjoyable for everyone? No.
And here is a "secret" if anyone could call it this way. Tank will never be removed.
Yes, I stand by it. Whole staff is against removing the tank and APC. Devs don't want to do it, because somebody worked on the sprite and the mechanics code etc, so they won't do it. Staff won't do it, because they think its something to be proud of and it gets us more players.
Tank will always be in the game. No matter how hard I will complain, no matter how hard someone else will complain, tank will always be here.
Saying "Remove the tank" is a meme. Since its reintroduction it will always be in the game and available somehow for marines. Its a meme.
The best we can expect is to have combat powerloaders/mechs as an option for VCs to choose. If those vehicles would prove to be way more fun than tank, they would be picked over it and tank will die via natural death. But we won't have it either.
It will end up exactly as I predicted: Tank balanced - Complains about the tank - Tank buffed - Benos fucked - Benos buffed - Marines fucked - Balance.
