Either vehicles need a nerf in damage/health, or engineers need to be reworked. OR have rockets actually do damage to vehicles.....it's extremely obnoxious when someone sits in a tank the entire game, never dying because no one can destroy the tank because they are either an engineer that retreats and repairs the vehicle themselves or they have someone with them constantly repairing it.....you need multiple people to destroy one vehicle with rockets/mines, unless you're a recon with C4. Vehicles are seriously unbalanced

I mean you wouldn't want to attack a tank head on. It's not that I don't disagree with you, but in a game where the other half of the game is vehicle Warfare... then the best counter to tanks are similar vehicles or aircraft with anti vehicle armaments.

I mean, you already answered it yourself. It's a team game. Why should the tank be easy to take down when the enemy team is constantly repairing it?
If three people are keeping the tank alive, then you should need at least three Engineers to take it down. That sounds fair to me.

Have you actually played in a vehicle at all to come up with such conclusion?

I sure have....But I should have mentioned that I play Breakthrough, both casual and regular, and certain maps heavily favor the attackers with vehicles while defenders get either just light armored jeeps and motorbikes or nothing at all. A lot of the maps willlet attackers have a tank or two the entire match and the defenders get nothing until the very last sector

Play conquest in a tank and you'll discover how vulnerable they actually are.
All the 'top' tank players in the stats in 2042 were all Breakthrough players and they always only played Attack. It's basically tanking on easy mode.
Whole different ball game when the threats are coming at you from 360 degrees and above from aircraft.
2042 and BF6 saw the biggest change in balance the series has experienced regarding infantry versus armour. Anti tank class in battlefield are now a serious challenge to ground vehicles, however infantry versus aircraft is still completely unbalanced.

now i want to know why a tank is manned with only 2 people. Now you said this game was a team game right? So a tank should be manned my 3 people driver main gunner gunner up top.
So the engineer should be able to take a tank out himself, which he should be able to anyway one RPG to the back or the under belly takes a tank out completely.
Now dont pick and choose what should and shouldnt be in a team game please it makes you look like a complete. I will leave the rest up to you to finish.

you only need two people to utilize the tanks weapons, driver fire the main gun and the auxiliary machine gun, and the second person uses the top gun

well you need 3 or 4 in a tank
1. Tank Commander
2. Gunner
3. Loader (in some tanks)
4. Driver
Come on dude this is a team game after all. If one engineer can not take a tank out by him self then a tank should be manned by at least 4 people. now follow the rules of a team game here.

Definitely not agreeing with you. If you expect to blow up a tank solo, then I am sorry but you dont get why the vehicles are there. They are not toy and since the last update, they are so much weaker where 2 rockets from the behind are enough.

team work huh? so a tank should be manned with 3 or 4 people not 2. Lets go with team work then.
EA/DICE in the name of team work make a tank take 3 or 4 people to use it.

Here's what you do:
Play as an engineer and ask other engineers to help you kill them. A squad or group of them can delete any vehicle off the map in seconds.
