I won't even dignify that ignorance and retardation from a murder taxier with a real response.

true story, you take someone who invested all their SP into vehcles, then nerf their range to 100m reliable dizstance, bug out explosive damage, make render distance glitch out so peopel randomy apear and disapear.

watch them try to use their vehicles and constantly getting killed by invisable AV.

then see them all flock to the only vehicle that doesnt require reliable render distance since they dont have any SP spent in anything else.

THEN watch as the FOTM chasers see this actually work and jump on the bandwagon specing into the logi jeeps and just romp around.

how about you live in the shoes of vehicle drivers before you start ranting on issues surrounding them.

yah theres a problem, but its bigger than you think it is and it doesnt matter what you do to LAVs except take them out of the game or remove any ability to kill people via impact your going to see vehicle drivers KEEP doing it because render distance will prevent them from using anything else.

spellchecker, use it.
Yes i have been in the shoes of a vehicle driver, since you dont know that you're probably new... but honestly you're defending murder taxiing because of render distance.... WOW.

THEAMAZING POTHEAD Pure Innocence. EoN. 246	Posted - 2013.08.20 09:39:00 - [1] - Quote I mean really, you can hotfix the duvolle tac AR to give it a smaller clip size, more dispersion, and capped ROF, yet you can't hotfix and just lower the base shield of a charybdis to 1200? When it is literally the most gamebreaking thing since uprising? And please don't tell me you don't think an invincible super fast vehicle that insta kills everything in its path is not gamebreaking. 6 Proto packed AV nades to kill it compared to armor tanks taking 2-4, and 5-6 for REALLY good maddys. 3-4 DMG modded proto assault FG shots(extremely hard to hit the uber fast LLAV with) God knows how many proto swarms(not like they can even consistently hit either with the LLAV simply driving behind ANY cover) If an LLAV is able to take MORE damage than a tank(yes, MORE, thats not exaggerated at all) yet moves waaaay faster, with better handling, and has a weapon as effective as a tank(the bumper...REALLY?) how is this not OP? how is this actually allowed to continue? The fact that this has been allowed for this long is absurd, and the fact that you plan to wait til 1.5 to even change it is simply ludricous. You've have said you plan to "fix" collision damage in 1.4, yet if someone can still kill someone with an LLAV at full speed, when full speed is achieved in a couple seconds, and still has all the damage resistance of of a charybdis, then barely anything will be changed whatsoever. Fact is that balance needs to either be: very difficult to run people over, as it was in chrome or the LLAV needs to be killable 1.4 is claiming: will be slightly harder to run people over. REALLY???????????

Actually HP means very little for vehicles- it is all about the resistances. That's why a Charybdis can take more hits than a sica with the same HP and modules.

Charlotte I'm well aware of the ins and outs of vehicles, and yes the answer to this problem IS a nerf, if anyone can say the charybdis doesn't need a flat out nerf, they are f*ing crazy, or a murder taxier themselves. As for tanks, buff shield boosters to armor repper levels, and fix the explosive to armor glitched damage(since it does 135% instead of 120% to ALL armor,suits and vehicles alike), and give back the PG skill so tanks could equip 1 heavy ext. and heavy repper without a pg mod, and tanks would be perfect. Also any tanker or pilot defending the charybdis is ****, its the reason 90% of us went proto AV, which is now f*ing over every real vehicle user.

I really hope you aren't suggesting giving tanks LLAV resistances and you just mean give LLAV's the same resistance as tanks. It's hard enough to kill a sniper tank with full proto AV since they just have to dip behind a hill and regen, and a tanks HP plus a LLAV resistance would make it neigh invincible unless the ENTIRE TEAM is gunning for it. That's the LAST thing we need. However, if you mean give the LLAV a tank's resistances [full stop], then I'm with you on that. Tank balance issues to the side, LLAV's (well... the Charybdis) could defiantly use a debuff around this level.

No, I was saying that the damage resistance of a tank is more than enough for a LLAV. This way they would be easier than a tank to kill due to their naturally lower HP. The tanks higher HP makes it viable at it's current damage resistance level, and sniper tanks are nearly impossible to kill as is since they can hide and regen after every hit. And yes, I CAN render a tank that puts all it's CPU/PG into damage output instead of survivability useless. Not my fault they decide to run proto turrets and damage mods instead of health and reppers. Sure, it's no fun being held at bay all match by AV, but it's also no fun getting shot up by infantry while trying to keep a tank at bay so it isn't rail sniping you all match. At least a rail sniping tank can hide and heal, we've gotta keep defending ourselves from infantry while dodging your rail rounds, getting no points whatsoever in the process. All I can say is at least we are willing to take to the field and fend off infantry to fight you, while you can one shot us at any point if we make one wrong move, then hide behind your hill again when you see our AV coming. As for rendering distance, quit trying so hard to pull completely unmentioned topics out of my statements, you're embarrassing yourself. Swarms cannot lock onto vehicles that are too far away, and by too far away I mean "well within rendering distance". As for forge guns, you'll have to talk to a forge specialist, not me.

(use this method when theres a coner and when he turns the coner and sees you its too late)

When I see one in a match, I just try to avoid it the best I can but there seem to be more and more of them...

Needs a high EHP to perform its true role and the damage penalty to turrets has somewhat limited its role as a attack LAV (which is still fun by the way) Fix collision damage and then lets reevaluate were it stands.
