R.I.P Murder Taxi

Though, there are still a dedicated few!

Actually it's a war game. Having different methods of killing opponents is a good thing. Keeps people thinking.
If there were ways of killing using World Hazzards (such as overloading a shield generator for a bridge over lava so people on the bridge fry till the shield comes online again) I would definitely plan on how to lure people into such traps.

Hope you are not comparing running people over as well developed plan. I agree variety is good, but driving around in an indestructible jeep and running over people being an effective strategy to win a match not so much. It just gets silly seeing a bunch a soldiers on a battle field throw down their guns and do nothing but run people over. If it was a once in a while thing when the circumstances allowed ok, but all the time?

I don't argue that you should not be able to run people over, but it should not be the level that murder taxis once was.

And good ******* riddance. They caused the Opness of AV to show it's ugly face. Oh well, they were broken already. Now, stop yer' yapping and finish up the vehicle fix your scheming up!

Oh wait, before you go, ETA for that thread and DEV blog should get here?

I will be doing my best to get it done during this week. Fingers crossed nothing horrible crops up to stop me finishing it.

Ha! Don't pretend people only died crossing the road.

Heck, these things were inside CQC areas, smashing people into obstacles, jumping off buildings and mountains onto people, doing circuits around maps (inside or outside) to Benny Hill music on some videos. On certain maps you could jump out of the MCC and be roadkill half a second later. If the driver didn't get you first time you end up being chased back and forth until you were on top of or behind something or squished.

It's was embarrassing. Funny in retrospect but I wouldn't want to go back.

Murder taxis are just idiot proof now.

I still kill a lot of people with them when I'm harassing the Caldari in FW.

You just have to think a little, which is hard for the common duster.

scouts are still easy targets

R.I.P Murder Taxi

I guess the Murder Taxi was..... Murdered.

The small turrets are still **** though. Don't forget to fix those. God knows that Blam! did........

If you can hop out at the last second they'll still explode, but you won't be in the car.

Murder taxi's were nerfed. Full speed for the kill, everything else does damage and knocks them off to the side.

So Today I shot gunned this heavy and jacked his car, and since it was a nice car I thought to myself "hey time to run ******* over!" as I havent done it in a while....and when I tried to run people over the game seemed to have been pushing them to the side? I dunno if that was a bug or did ccp "balance" cars too now?

Now I know vehicles can be a little cheap and ****** to be suddenly run over by...and the fact that they can be almost anywhere and at any time and some players use it as a main reason to get kills, and can get quite annoying..but, they're cars, and honestly if you keep your ears perked enough you can hear them coming.

If by that you mean, people were pissed at dying when a car crawling up hill at 5 MPH touched them, then yes you are absolutely right, we evil crybabies made the @ssholes who relied on one hit kill machines actually have to try and shoot someone...in a FPS.

Properly fitted small blasters can tear through any dropsuit or at least heavies, first hand experience here.

I am actually wondering if they rebuffed them a bit.

I have actually run over folk at not that great a speed and I literally saw a vehicle stop about 5 meters behind me, I turned to run and it still killed me (maybe if they pin you to a wall it auto kills though - that may have happened)
