I am looking for comments - IN CHARACTER - from mercenaries that I can use as a quote in a news article I am about to write. Upcoming vehicle changes are a hot topic and I would like to get some feedback. I am looking for RP answers from players or diplomats of large corporations about:
How the change in vehicles will change piloting on the ground.
Will this change bring about new tactics/meta?
How do you feel about finite ammo reserves?
Active or passive: Which is better?
Why were these changes needed?
Shield VS Armor: Who Wins?
Favorite change to vehicles.
I only need a few quotes for the article so feel free to answer any or all of the above questions. If you have a unique viewpoint or don't think that I asked the right questions then write in one of your own. This is for fun and nothing else so any trolling or CCP/CPM/DUST/EVE bashing will not make it into the article so save your comments like that for another thread that is made to feed trolls or contain game development intended feedback.
Try to write whatever you have to say the way you want it printed. I don't need any crazy formats or crazy grammar because these quotes are supposed to be from active mercenaries that are deployed to the front lines. Feel free to set the mood with a short description of what is happening while conducting the interview. My favorite quotes will be used and the more knowledgeable you are the more likely you are to make it in the post.

I probably should not reply to this since I don't need to in the first place and I think this thread is probably in the wrong section of the forums....But I don't think people usually do in-character responses to reblancing of items, it shows some inconsistency in the world and it is not really explainable in lore I am not a expert role player but that is just how I see it.

So... did you hear? The worm hole tech used to provide vehicles a steady supply of ammunitions causes severe diarrhea. The vehicle manufactures are discontinuing the use of the tech and revamping their products.
I'm just glad to know that it wasn't just me. I was seriously concerned for a good while... (nervous laughter)

That's what makes it fun. It isn't needed and there is no explanation but it is fun to make up things or try to justify changes. It doesn't matter and isn't canon so I figure have fun with it. Things change on the battlefield and all weapons usually change at least once in there lifetime. It is for fun.

A little bit disappointed Logistics dropship manufacturing is being discontinued, however the refocusing might actually play out to the advantage of pilots. Preliminary tests on advanced passive vehicular countermeasures have proven to reduce the lock-on range of swarm launchers by over half and negate much of the missile damage. I'm immensely pleased with this as those swarms hound me wherever I fly, and I swear they've developed cloaked swarms because I don't even see them coming sometimes.
Personally predicting a rise in usage of blaster turrets on dropships as anti-infantry and suppression. A few months ago my fellow pilots started switching to missile turrets. I tried them out and I could see why. In fact, there was an overall rise in usage of explosive weaponry on the field in general. I hear it had something to do with a scientist realising that weapons manufacturers had it all wrong, and explosions were more deadly if they were three-dimensional rather than flat disks. Don't know what that means but it worked. However there've been numerous adjustments to blasters as the hybrid turret manufacturers are pulling their socks up and fighting for their old glory. The next edition of the Incubus Assault dropship has inbuilt blaster enhancement modules, and with the new ranges and higher damage, ammunition won't stop me from ripping people to shreds before they even get a chance to run.

Can't believe Wiyrkomi is gonna go stale on their Swarm Launchers. I heard that they are not only doing half damage, they're also gonna have less acquisition range. I hope I can apply ((respec)) my skills ((SP)) to other weapons. This is cheese.
Madness is the emergency exit. You can just step outside, and close the door on all those dreadful things that happened.

Think about it .... most weapons that are and can be considered anti-vehicle WILL be nerfed and some more than others to make the decisions in the 1.7 drop justified . DIE 1.7 DIE 1.7 DIE 1.7 DIE 1.7 DIE 1.7 DIE 1.7 DIE 1.7 DIE ALREADY !!!!!!
This will make those changes look like Albert Einstein himself came up with the process . It's a joke and clear proof of a flawed process and also imbalanced reasoning . Sometimes those in power just get tired of " hearing " from those that they govern over so they just " TAKE AWAY " what the catalyst is , in a effort to make sure that these issues NEVER come up again so that they will NEVER need to be addressed .
That doesn't solve the problem especially when feedback is asked and " claimed " to be considered and valued .
It just baffles me that vehicle users applaud these changes that are more anti-vehicle than the same munitions . I would have thought there would be more of an uproar but then again , when you see such inter squabbling from the collective , the bigger picture gets overlooked most of the time , from most wanting their opinions to be favored and right . It's more of a I'm right and your wrong atmosphere , instead of fighting for what is right , stating and standing up to what is wrong .
I just can't wait until the floodgates open . It's going to be beautiful to watch the drowning .
DIE 1.7 DIE 1.7 DIE 1.7 DIE 1.7 DIE 1.7 DIE 1.7 DIE 1.7 DIE 1.7 DIE 1.7 DIE 1.7 DIE 1.7 DIE ALREADY !!!!!!!!
" BANE " of ALL vehicle users , Crush , Kill and Destroy ALL vehicles !!!!!
