personaly,i dont think i dont think tanks are for noobs. i use a tank all the time on BG all the time.i usualy set myself up on the hill behind red base and some may call it camping i call it tank sniping. yes ther is a difrence. camping is wher u wit in one spot for a long period of time and u stay ther even if a grenade gets stuck to your face, its your only tactic and your afriad to go out into combat. tank sniping, however, is an art. i can position the tank and kill someone in the blue base hallway. u must also know how to react when being fired upon, for example, if someone snipes YOU and not the tank then u will die because your vulnerable, so u must hide but still be able fire.you must also know when to not shoot, like say some one is in the dead zone of the tank and ther shooting you, get out toss a few grenades and hop right back in otherwise you will die. anyway say what u think that was just my opinion and tip.

it really depends on the way you use the tank. noobs tend to use it a shock sort of vehicle (like tanks are supposed to be used lol) but this makes them easy targets for pistol snipers/regular snipers/small groups of troops throwin nades at them. A more experienced player would keep his distance, have the back of the tank toward the enemy rather than the front, and would have plenty of allies on foot helpin him, and relying on him for artillery support sort of.
