I've always hated nerfs and in this case it looked like it was getting nerfed into the ground.
my opinion on why the nerf is happening
but even inventing a reason for the nerf I still feel like you give some you should get some. so how bout we give swarms dumbfire back? dumbfire was never terribly effective especially at range so I don't see a problem with giving it back. when it was an anti tank weapon I could sort of see dumbfire was removed. looking at it's new stats killing anything with it is gonna be a pain.

PS: why isn't this in feedback/request? because I'm not sure i wanna suggest or request it yet as nobody outside ccp has used the new swarm.

tankers should know what it feels like to be nerf, they should put aside petty revenge. they shouldn't wish their ills on others.
EDIT: well, a little revenge, BUT THEN WE FIX IT.

Then I remembered that its a few days until Black Friday.
Games on my to do list: Kingdoms of Amalur. Tomb Raider reboot, The Last of Us, Beyond, Far Cry 3, AC, Batman, Gran Turismo 6, Diablo 3, Dark Souls, Payday, Saints Row, GTA V, Killzone: Shadowfall,
So I guess by May ? then maybe? I may be worried about it but by then its sorry Dust 514 theres still more games arriving...lol.
So I guess Dust 514 playtime will be check in once a month to see if anythings fixed or stll goofed up??
I.e. last year we waited months for new content:
Dev1 umm whats the forums like??
Dev2 theres endless threads asking about new maps, new weapons, new vehicles and they have thousands of likes.
Dev1 meh! what else is there??
Dev2 theres a single forum thread with two likes asking about new supply depos.
Dev1 holy mother of code sourced kittens!! get on those new supply depos!!
And we got a cosmetic makeover for supply depos since that was a "hot" forum topic....lol!!!!!!!!
the ever popular doctor strangelove approach, I can respect that.

reads over comments...
 
you wanna kitten about each other do it in the war room.
the op was simple
the nerf to swarm is too extreme to make it a viable anti tank weapon
good tankers are like "knight you scrub they were never any good"
so then we agree.
AV is like "oh knows tank 514!!!!"
so then we agree.
I proposed a token gesture add a variant or simply remove mandatory lock on all together. because I don't think a nerf should come without a buff
dicuss that, not who's the bigger kitten if you'd be so kind.

Like I said, I don't see why it need both damage and range nerfed. If they had left the damage, the range would make for an interesting mechanic, I think we would see more av specialist commando suits running WITH squads. If they had left the range, Swarms would become more of a harassment weapon, that would be used to force HAVs to bug out, not kill them. As for an eye for an eye buff, dumbfire isn't the way to go. They took it out with good reason,with the exception of HROF rifles we are starting to a semblance of balance. I don't think adding a semi-auto burst mass driver, with anti-vehicle power magnitudes would help. If they were to add on a variation that was a designated anti-infantry, thus possessing much less power, it would be acceptable.However really I think the thing they need to to swarms, is reduce damage per rocket by 75% but increase number of rockets per swarm by 4 Make me feel like I'm firing a swarm, an actual SWARM!
it's not an eye for an eye, the swarm was nerfed for a reason, I suggested dumbfire so you guys wouldn't be totally helpless with it out.
