If you would like to skip my stories and get straight to the point, continue to the part with the hyphens. If you want all the details and want to know the crap I went through and see how closely related it is to your crap, keep reading!
What's your swarm launcher of choice? If you're just a normal frontline soldier and tactical sniper like me, it's probably either a CBR7 or MLT (unless you're full proto, but we won't go there). Do you have AV grenades? Most of us do. Well, what's your swarm launcher of choice when there's a total of 5 tanks spawned throughout a match, each one being a Gunnlogi/Madrugar with 5500+ shields/6000+ armour, sometimes reaching godawful amounts of 9700, and you are the ONLY one with the guts to try to take one down?
It's not pretty, that's what it is.
5 tanks... 1 destroyed the entire match... 1 person using AV... am I the only one not liking that scenario? Why in the [insert your most favourite swear word here] should they even allow that many tanks on the field at once? Even if your team was nothing but evil black-suited "logis" with Wiyrkomi (is that spelled right?) swarms and Ishukone forge guns, how are they possibly going to get through FIVE TANKS? Keep in mind, there's not five tanks out at once. There's more around 3 or 4. But after one is destroyed, said tank returns within seconds.
----If you skipped down, here's where you start reading.---
I don't have the time, or the patience, to continue leveling my character how I see fit AND give him prototype anti-vehicular equipment capable of scaring "Logi" LAVs. So, what I devised is a slightly more complex--but in the end worth the trouble--sort of team vehicle quota.
Instead of putting it where there can be a certain number of total vehicles on the field at any given time, make it where then can be a specific number of one vehicle on the field at any given time. The numbers are not perfect, nor would I expect them to be the numbers that would be used, but here's an idea:
Max # of LAVs on the field at any given time: 3 Max # of HAVs on the field at any given time: 1 Max # of dropships (derpships) on the field at any given time: 2
What do you guys think? As always, trolls and haters will be countertrolled and counterhated, and will be assumed to be in a corporation that loves to bring out 3 Madrugars at a time. How's the numbers? Should they be adjusted to something else? This is just how I would prefer them to be, but someone else out there may have a little more experience and find murder taxis to be more annoying than I think they are.
Give your constructive thoughts and feedback, and lets try to keep this one clean, yeah? Seriously. Forum trolls are just immature.
Exio out.
I don't know what the privilege was, and I don't know why it was abandoned, but at least the EVE players aren't dicks to us. |

1 Forge Gun per side 2 Swarm Launchers per side Any can use AV nades, but only one can be carried at a time.
Okay you we've already spoken to, and you were trolled about as much as these ignorant fools are doing to me right now. As for the rest of you, get your fuckin' Madrugars off the field, because there is not one person out there, regardless of the power, proficiency, or anything of their swarm launchers, forge guns, or AV grenades that can take on 3 Gunnlogis/Madrugars at once. But now that I run with a corporation that has plenty of skilled players and other ruthless--and I do mean ******* ruthless--AVers, I just dare you to bring a tank out around me. If you need 6000 armour/shields to kill me, then you're just as much of a noob as the guy in the "logi" Ck.0. |

The counter to tank spam is AV spam. If your opponents have 5 good tanks on the field, you should have 5 AV suits on the field. They're presenting a super obvious tactic with a super obvious counter. MLT swarms suck, most tanks will shrug the damage if you're attacking them solo. 3-5 MLT swarms? 3-5 AV grenades? Forge guns? Oh ****, your team just killed 5 tanks because you used teamwork.
Can you not read? Or did you just choose not to? I was the only one even trying on both of those matches. |

Possibly all of them.
If I were a super dedicated and specialized HAV driver and I can't call my dang tank into the battle and be of help to my team I would insta-quit.
Also, **** happens. Just like when you are completely destroyed by Proto infantry squads, sometimes you get some particle accelerators in your butt. Trying to going solo against 4 tanks with a ADV swarm launcher is like trying to take a Null Cannon all alone with MLT gear against a 6 man proto squad.
You might need to review your tactics.
If you really want to be hated, pick a Forge Gun and camp a roof (I do NOT approve this).
To quote a very good friend of mine who has actual intelligence and agrees with me on this:
