What? you didn't read title? Simple. Driving a HAV is no excuse to suck when your boots on are the ground. To many times it's the same turtle with out a shell scenario. But thing is.. IT'S ONLY WITH THIS GAME! lol
Other dedicated pilots and drivers from other FPS games know their way around a gun. Losing a HAV or putting their boots on the ground doesn't equate to instant death for them.
Too many times I've seen and killed the poor sob that lost his tank and with tears in his eyes, charges at me to only die quickly.
If your a HAV driver, but have kept up your gun game, than this post is not for you. But those that SEVERELY RELY ON THEIR TANK TO STAY ALIVE, I can see why some QQ constantly.
I was a OHK before I took up the swarms. I did it cause I was bored. But on the field I know my around a gun. (sad if I didn't since FPS make up 80% of my diet since I was a teen)
Swarms aren't a crutch for me, cause before I'm hunting HAVs and DS, I'm hunting the snipers and forge gunners that protect them with my Ish smg.
Crutches aren't good. cause on the battlefield, it's the solder that holding crutches that would get shot first. Balance out, SL and HAV players. |

When CCP decides Vehicles don't need SP, I'll fight on the ground, want to know why I severely need my tank to survive? All my SP is in Vehicles, I cannot compete on the ground.
So long story short, get ******, I'm not fighting people with 10-20million SP more than me.

You must fight how us with less than 2M sp fight, in cover, in the shadows, behind team members. It's actually fun and you could learn a thing or two running with us.

So I guess I should just go home and not even try to compete then, since clearly it's not possible with ~one million SP? I may be outclassed a lot, but that doesn't mean I can't hold my own. When I train into vehicles, I'll want to be sure that I don't entirely rely on them. |

Not mad, but I want HAVs to notice that SL users are just as defensless as they are out of a tank. I'm not speaking for the AV nades throwing bunch. just the guys who speck all into SL and then are sitting ducks. JUST LIKE TANKERS WITH OUT TANKS.
Sl users should know their way around a gun a swell. not to charge at enemy lines, but to survive. |

You cannot compare it, all my SP after the reset went into Vehicles (As in, when all our SP got wiped.) and yet the majority of people I know who are Swarm Launchers have a proto suit with an AR.
The only "Dedicated" SL player I've seen is Taz-666, and the guy is loaded (I'm talking around a Billion ISK here.) so not only has he got more ISK than any Tanker, last I checked he was skilling into other things too.
I haven't even finished maxing out my Vehicles yet, **** is ridiculous.

High-SP infantry have crazy amounts of health compared to those without investment. 650-900hp versus around 350-500hp. They'll have Proficiency damage boosts to boot. Faster regen, lower downtime... their advantage is massive against someone that's mostly in vehicles.
But if you want lower-SP solutions to fight them on foot then I'd go Proficiency II in Scrambler Pistols with Handheld Weaponry V. Can be a great equaliser at around 1.5 mil SP, dual ScPs with at least one Complex Damage gives you the short range firepower to directly compete with full-protos so long as they don't get the drop on you. Cheap and incredibly powerful glass cannon. |

come on dude.. they can't carry a AR and SL at same time. Best they got going for them is to spec into some strong side arm. same with tankers. Proto Ar users can't touch you inside tank. NOTE that I'm not speaking for the AV nades bunch. That I find as Over kill. How you gonna get that Av guy if all you got is smg and he has ar? I agree av nades are abit unfair. |

I have medium tier gun game because mouse and keyboard doesn't work and controllers don't work for fps.

But it's not about hav users going infantry, it's about them being able to survive to make it to the red line, call another hav. that takes some sort of gun skill. NO EXCUSE IN A FPS NOT TO HAVE IT.

If you want to kill infantry and vehicles either use a FG but that requires aim or lolavnades with the homing crutch
Generally most swarms dont have a problem with infantry because they are 300m away on a tower or a hill far away from anything playing peak a boo |

That Level V in SMGs is always going to help you, in your primary (?) role as AV or in your secondary roles with other loadouts.
For a vehicle user it would not help unless they're outside of their primary role... it's also SP that only comes into play if the entirety of their SP investment from their primary is not currently helping them. How that actually plays out is pretty major.
You talk up gun game which, yes, is important. Know what else is important? Whether that guy has almost double your health and 25% more damage output. For a vehicle user this is an entirely credible scenario.
I'd actually be somewhat in favour of unifying Infantry and Vehicle Shield/Armor Upgrades, Electronics, Engineering and so forth... make it so vehicle operators aren't left completely behind when they're not piloting. |

Thread not meant for you. Your the guy that when I pop your tank, I don't even bother trying to kill. lol It seems like Your able to do fine to call in your next tank. or make it to cover.
But that's what I'm saying.. skill the kind I'm talking about you don't earn as a point system from this game. it's learned through practice in mcc before you drop. Or just in planning of "What are my options should I lose this tank? Have I got a good Side Arm? where do I take cover?" |

I run a standard light frame suit with a rep tool and sidearm in preparation for the Pilot Suit, because we know the Pilot suit is going to be a light frame and the possibility of it being useless outside of a Vehicle is very high. You are going to destroy me with your Ishukone SMG (I see people kill with it faster than a Heavy with a HMG).
We don't complain about dying on foot, we never will, because our skills and ability to fight is inside a vehicle, I really don't know what this thread is in aid of, first you were complaining about Vehicles being a crutch, now you're complaining about us dying quickly on the ground.. wot?
Vehicle Issues right now are they're too weak, once you've destroyed my HAV do you think I'm going to run to the red line to call another? No, I want you to kill me so I can AFK in the MCC for the rest of the match, My tanks cost 700k-1.4mil, fool.

@ JASON.
Then they need to lower that price. But you have two kinds of HAV users. those that will be ok, if they did lower price. and those that will still cry at not being able to go 50-2.
When in any other FPS is that even made to be norm? Don't ask for my view on whether I think one player can take down a HAV, cause you won't like it.
It's like many from eve ships have this mind set that they were going to jump in FPS game and control mini eve ships going 50-2 in every match.
The "weakest" HAV driver now can go more than the infantry counter part in terms of kills. Rule of every FPS. INFANTRY FIRST. HAV SECOND.
Cost is too high? then ccp needs to lower that ****. |

LOWER THE DAMN PRICE. But tell me why DCUO Loving selves that never played a fps game should pound FPS players, and go 50-2 because they are in a TANK? Last time I checked Dust was barely holding onto it's lobby shooter tag. why would it go against everything that's almost an unwritten rule in every fps? |

I'm going to agree that I disagree with you. Otherwise this will bring out the whole "Dust 514 lobby shooter? or MMO RPG AND THEN LOBBY SHOOTER?" debate. |

LOL OP, keep using your crutch AR. I can get half the KDR with 0 SP in infantry skills with my 'Dren' Assault Rifle that I get with my tanks. Now keep in mind that it requires 0 SP and is the biggest crutch infantry has. But since I don't like crutches, I use tanks. And if I wanted to play infantry, I would just choose one of the many other games out there that have much more fun infantry play because people don't constantly QQ about every f*cking weapon in those games. Ok, CoD is something I will never touch though, the playerbase is... well, you know how it is... or maybe you don't. |

CoD is still around, go and play with the dog its about your skill level You do know we only use swarms Cause vehicles are killing us on the field...right? I only whip a weapon that cost me a few million SP to use...if I'm getting killed by a tank, LLAV or a dropship is killing me. It is useless outside of all situations other then locking to a vehicle...it can't be used on anything else...it takes up a light weapon slot and leaves us only with a sidearm. If one ground soldier spots us out, we have a major problem defending ourselves.

Advanced. I'm a few days out from proto. I've been using swarms for a few weeks now, and I still don't understand how anyone can view them as OP or a crutch. The majority of my kills with it are, who I can only assume, new players hanging out in turrets, and assholes trying to roadkill everyone in militia LAVs. I've knocked a few dropships around, never get kills though, and tanks? Even the most mediocre militia tank can deal with advanced swarms on most of the maps.
Luckily as a Min I have extra side arm magazine size, anyone else running it would be extra vulnerable. But my AV kit also uses ex-o nades, so its all sidearm for 90% of every other enemy on the map. Such a crutch. |

I've seen too many FPS players leave this game. So to see the few of my fellow breathren being tossed around by players that never touched or will touch another fps game. and do so only cause they are in a tank. Then well, don't expect me to be happy about it.

With some gun game, BOTH THE HAV AND SL are just ducks that wonder in on the wrong season. Mate, mate. I went all-in on AV initially. It was 300k SP to get my Scrambler Pistol to a decent level, 800k SP to make it great. My core infantry skills also help me whenever I'm doing anything that's not AV... nor can I be comprehensively locked out of playing any infantry role in a given match. Our situation is *far* better than theirs. MY AV SUIT IS A SCOUT. My side arm are is ISH. My survivability depends on how many are near the hav, and how fast I can run to restock. But I survive more than half of 1vs1. AR or SHOTTY. Add 2 players there and I'm probably dead. But it's not about hav users going infantry, it's about them being able to survive to make it to the red line, call another hav. that takes some sort of gun skill. NO EXCUSE IN A FPS NOT TO HAVE IT. That Level V in SMGs is always going to help you, in your primary (?) role as AV or in your secondary roles with other loadouts.
For a vehicle user it would not help unless they're outside of their primary role... it's also SP that only comes into play if the entirety of their SP investment from their primary is not currently helping them. How that actually plays out is pretty major.
You talk up gun game which, yes, is important. Know what else is important? Whether that guy has almost double your health and 25% more damage output. For a vehicle user this is an entirely credible scenario.
I'd actually be somewhat in favour of unifying Infantry and Vehicle Shield/Armor Upgrades, Electronics, Engineering and so forth... make it so vehicle operators aren't left completely behind when they're not piloting.[/quote]

Oh dear my swarm launcher is such a gigantic and debilitating crutch, oh dear is me. I can only run to a Supply Depot and swap out for any other suit in a matter of seconds! Oh dear is me!
Price of proto swarm on a Militia suit? ~40k Price of most basic tank with full outfitting, resist plating, armor, etc... 500k can go to 1,200k or more if you sacrifice armor and grid for a better turret.
Highest score I've ever seen for a tank user in games is about... 20 kills? (more than half were made outside the tank BTW) Highest score I've seen for a proto stim-glitcher is about 35 kills.
I'm not sure where you get off complaining about tanks being powerful when they are outmatched by infantry at every angle. |

It's the ONLY Weapon in DUST 514 that gets a 50% Base Damage increase from STD to PRO. You have yet to experience any Proficiency, let alone Proficiency 5. Ammo Clip is increased via Operations, & PRO Locks & Refires faster, with a larger Lock Box. Add Damage Mods. Try a Tower
Wanna have fun w/ Infantry while on that Tower??? Commando w/ Swarms, Sniper, Damage Mods, Armor Rep Mods, Spamohive
