I don't want your well earned SP you put into LAVs to turn to smoke with a nerf but I really really hate murder taxis.
So a vicious part of me wants your death machine to get nerfed into oblivion.
But more reasonably speaking, LAVs need to be reworked so they're still invaluable in battle but no longer clone bulldozers. |

How is a couple tonnes of vehicle running into someone and killing them stupid? Bear in mind that an adequate speed is necessary to accomplish that.
Its not stupid or unrealistic and I try not to get too upset anyone driving an LAV because it is what it is and CCP put it there so if you skilled into it you might as well use it.
My problem with it is that I don't want to have to dodge out of the way of incoming vehicles all of the time. I simply don't like that game mechanic because it messes with the flow of battle and turns a fire fight into watch-out-for-the-murder-taxi fight.

2 of my corpmates have this setup and I routinely go 25+ kills and the driver gets a ton of warpoints from assists and some kills from orbitals both the driver and gunner have to be skilled because the LAV can't take too much punishment but the blaster absolutely melts through people. A few days ago I went 48-1 gunning with the one death being a redline suicide when we got greeding trying to get a sniper.
And that's what I want to see.

That won't really stop the driver from utilizing the LAV like a bulldozer.
The driver will just grab a turret buddy and run down anyone his gunner can't kill himself. |

If there was a dislike button... fine.
Look I just want to play a game where everyone picks up their favorite FOTM and shoots at each other for 2.5 hours so If i get blown apart buy a FG or sniper or a MD that's fine but playing a shooter where I get hunted down by on-coming traffic like a wildebeest is not fun for me.
If I really wanted to I would go back and play frogger.

The only way to make up for those losses is by foregoing support for a couple of matches and doing the only thing that nets me WPs in a vehicle. Or you know, you could run as infantry in a free suit.

The only thing you're apprehensive about is losing your crutch. If we wanted to play infantry we would play cod.
The reason this comment bothers me so much is because it actually makes sense and I want to find a good counter.
Honestly, you're right, but I don't want to play cod because of its shallow gameplay.
DUST is strategic and has a lot of complexity as well as unmet potential. I desperately want to play the game but murder-taxeing is ruining the intense firefight experience that I crave. |
