Godin Thekiller OSG Planetary Operations Covert Intervention 1679	Posted - 2014.02.14 01:59:00 - [1] - Quote EDIT: TL;DR: Return to the old hardener stats and the old layout to fix the "unkillable" HAV's Let me say which ones needs changing first before I explain so you might understand better. Look here to see what the stats I'm talking about: Hardeners would go back to old stats, other than the down and up times, which would stay damage mods would go back to the old stats armor plates and shield extenders adjusted to fit 5 slots instead of 3 scanners and small turrets returned to old fitting stats Readjustment of all vehicle CPU/PG, and skills that helps fitting things. Now my reasoning. Fitting vehicles and use of them is a hot mess. On one hand, fitting them, even with a maxed out pilot is still a nightmare for Gallente vehicles, and a piece of cake for Caldari vehicles. On the other hand, using them is a nightmare for everyone else (unless you can AV well, hide, or scrub out and use JLAV's or redline rails, but that's for another thread ). So, I've gone through a myriad of solutions (some of which could still be considered valid, I'll look them up later if you want to see them), but I finally got banned. SO, while I was banned, I thought of a solution. So I was looking at the old vehicle stats compared to new ones, and noticed a lot of things, such as rails getting a massive, unneeded buff, or blasters getting nerfed, and everything getting a speed boost, among other things. Most notably, I noticed the hardeners. To balance them with the slot layout change, he 2x their strength, and upped their fitting cost. That was silly move. Why? the stacking penalty. See, with basically less of a penalty, we can get far more resists than before. That means we can sit there like we're in siege mode only having to worry about a missile or rail HAV in a Caldari HAV, or having to worry less about AV in a Gallente HAV. So, how do you fix this? Return it back to the way it was. Put the vehicles back at a high slot count, and less module cost, and weaker hardeners, as well as other adjusted modules that I listed above, so it can be easier to fit for higher skilled players (like it is in EVE) than lower skilled players. I'm positive that'll fix a lot of problems without bring us back to how it was before where vehicles are bloody useless. Remember, AV got nerfs too. Peace, Godin 'lights cigar' fuck with me, and I'll melt your face off. Gallente forever! Blup Blub Bloop. Translation: Die -_-

Sgt Buttscratch lcritMYpantS 1615	Posted - 2014.02.14 02:27:00 - [16] - Quote The AV fix should have been soo simple. (this is what they should have done for 1.7) AV Remove proto AV stats Add 1.6 ADV AV as the proto Create new ADV AV stats (midground between MLT/STD and PRO) Swarmer range to 250m Vehicles Fix terrain damage on shield tanks Revamp shield regen and resist to stand up to armor tanks Armor tanks remain untouched. Remove chardbris/limbus/abron for full make over Create a higher base resist for dropships,making them resist reliant as apposed to skycoffins Prices Reduce the price of MLT chassis by 50% Reduce the price of STD chassis by 50% (madrugar and gunny would cost 100k base) Reduce ENFORCER tanks to 300k per chassis Turrets Large at proto 300k small at proto 150k Overview: Armor tanks were fine, their price wasn't Shield tanks suffered, worse reps/ shorter resist periods, worse manuevering, no bonus to using rail/missile. Suffer bad on terrain damage also. AV all proto was very powerful, that being said proto should be a lot more effective now. In 1.6 ADV AV was actually balanced well to tanks, a **** to medium tank would have issue, A well made tank cold eat some swarms but would be pushed back. The distance of swarmers was a joke and needed shortening. Price was always an issue, but maybe if we only had to deal with ADV stat AV, the price might not have been bad (other than ADS/LDS and ENFORCERS). Either way, tanking used to be legitimate, good tankers were good, bad tankers killed fast, great variations in build, IT REQUIRED A GREAT SQUAD TO WORK WITH THE TANK TO SURVIVE!! That doesn't mean taking people out of the gungame, that means infantry who help call threats out and helped elimate threats. CCP has successfully turned 95% of their playerbase into fail ass tankers who actually think they are the ones doing good, even tho its just that big lump of metal, that probably despises them more than I do.

ANd things like the passive repairs and ammo for turrets would stay. Tiercide involves changes, sometimes those changes have to be reverted on. Lastly, I use all vehicles, and only use Scouts. Quiet.
