Once again AV is getting another buff while vehicles are left behind to rot
This next month will be the hardest we will have to go through before 1.5 arrives
Swarms the king of easy mode AV has recieved 4 buffs
1. Quicker lock on times
2. Quicker firing between volleys
3. Quicker reloading for less SP
4. More ammo
Once again we have to adapt like we have done every single build and patch
We stand in the way of adv/proto AV every day while we only have the basic mods and hulls to tinker with while PC is a graveyard to those who dare enter
Dropships will die before they can take to the sky, ground vehicles will not escape
I will not move
I will not respec
I will not give up my tank
I will tank
I will adapt
I will move to the hills and redline snipe the entire game if i have to
I will do it every single game until 1.5 arrives
We are waiting on the holy grail that is 1.5 and the promise that it brings
I am prepared to not kill any fellow vehicles users unless you pose a threat to me by shooting at me or using your dropship to scale to the heights of the tower because i will assume you are a crutch user and deserve to be shot down and in a ball of flames
I will let milita tanks go free of charge for they have it the hardest of all of us, even harder than dropships which sometimes can outrun the swarms, these are the players who are just starting out in vehicles, they have low SP and low amounts of ISK which can be solo'd easily and this patch will effectively kill everything which isnt a dropsuit
If we must railgun snipe i will bring out my spider tank just to keep you alive, even if i do not know you i will repair you, even if its milita because every time a vehicle is alive and survives another AV onslaught it is a '**** you' sent to the crutches of this game, it is a '**** you' sent to CCP who keep on buffing AV, it is a **** you sent to the infantry who want vehicles gone with no teamwork or skill required
If we have to run 2 spider tanks to keep a railgun tank alive it should be done, not just to protect someone elses investment but to keep a playstyle alive, to keep vehicles in this game, to show to infantry that once again we will adapt and change and still **** you up in anyway that is possible no matter how many buffs you recieve and how many nerfs my vehicles go through
I will still be here, my tank will still be here and even my dropship will still be here and i will stand by any of my vehicle brothers even if they are my enemy because we are going through the same patch
Go prepare your fittings, tweek with them, work with them, test them out, work together, stand together for we are defending a playstyle from going extinict
* Swarm Launcher base lock-on time has been increased to 1.4 from 1.2 and its fire interval has been reduced from 2 to 0.3
That's from the patch notes.
