mollerz 2522	Posted - 2014.03.02 01:45:00 - [1] - Quote Why are vehicles instantly delivered? Presumably, vehicles need to be delivered from orbit. The instantaneous delivery of whatever a player wants adds to the tank woes, and it also nerfs scouts by proxy. I jump out of an MCC, and low and behold a heavy has an LAV insta-delivered hot out of the oven and over takes me to an objective. OR the enemy heavy is there to greet me because he had his instagrammed LAV delivered and beat me to an objective. It removes a huge element of strategy and hands easy peasy lameness to players who need to actually git gud with some skills. How about it CCP? You gotta hustle if you wanna make a dolla
Christiphoros von Poe Dead Six Initiative Lokun Listamenn 173	Posted - 2014.03.02 01:47:00 - [2] - Quote It used to be longer... But then Vehicle users complained that it was too long so they made it instantaneous. I remember having to wait 15 seconds or even more for a tank to drop after I ordered it.

Lorhak Gannarsein Science For Death 1850	Posted - 2014.03.02 01:48:00 - [3] - Quote I thought they came from the MCC? They used to take time, but I think they changed it to stop the RDV farming, and then changed it again because they kept spawning into DSes. Definitely the LAV thing is a bit borked, but I'm not sure what you could do about that without breaking those other parts. Forge on for great justice! Defend the meek! Destroy the weak!

Galthur Fatal Absolution General Tso's Alliance 397	Posted - 2014.03.02 01:49:00 - [4] - Quote Eve ships can jump between solar systems fairly fast. It would be that fast to do a similar jump from Warbarge to planetside if data was present (RDV's are drones) thus actually dropping the vehicle would take more time than getting down.

Admittedly if it took more time to deliver them a single RAIL HAV could deny and entire team vehicles. Or worse. What I don't understand is what I cant be deployed directly from the warbarge in my HAV like an installation, hell It would be cool if the squad leader had to call down my hot dropped HAV.

Derpty Derp It's All Gone Derp 45	Posted - 2014.03.02 02:40:00 - [11] - Quote Put some strategy back into the game... You mean like thinking hey an LAV designed for fast infantry transport is probably going to be faster than a guy running. Are you suggesting that a vehicle drop should take so long that any turret or tank should have ample time to shoot it down from the other side of the map? Or just that it's stupid to have vehicles appear in mid air when both clones and ammo teleport into battle on little pads? All this would achieve is more tanks and less of anything that will fight them off, since tanks will be the only thing that survive the drop (what with their massive hp advantage over everything else.) If anything they should just allow people to start in their vehicles, the idea of teamwork is that you give a lift to your teammates and get them to the objectives faster, maybe no one gives you a lift because you're one of those idiots that gets in and steals it so they can crash into ****.

Meeko Fent Kirkinen Risk Control Caldari State 1844	Posted - 2014.03.02 03:19:00 - [15] - Quote I could see s 10 second timer being OK. But the old "Wait 30 Second for the lolRDV to **** up and squash you should remain in the past. Ten seconds gives the scouts a good head start to the obbys, where assaults/heavies/people in squads would wait the ten seconds to shave a good amount of time off the time to Obbys. Might give Scouts a good use for everybody as a quick runner in the beginning of the match to cap the cannons, and then switch to their combat class from there. Or stay in the class if it is their combat class. Depends on the guy, right? Looking for a Interesting Character Name? Why Not Zoidberg?

But also, RDVs need to be a lot more accurate and dependable. You gotta hustle if you wanna make a dolla

Baal Roo Subdreddit Test Alliance Please Ignore 3013	Posted - 2014.03.02 04:11:00 - [21] - Quote So what, because I've spent my 17 Mil SP on vehicles instead of dropsuits, I should have to stand around for the first couple minutes of every match? I think the solution here should be that the game should let players choose to SPAWN as a vehicle, giving precedent for quota to the player with the higher total SP investment. If that were the case, then I'd be totally cool with having to wait 1 minute or more for an RDV request.

Only when your whole team tries to spawn their vehicles in at the same time. But this is like just 15 seconds outright, assuming nobody else on your team is calling in a vehicle.

Well that isn't fair. Just to lessen vehicles? IMO, that's not a good deterrent. Folks will just sit and wait for their vehicles. Then Alpha would start flashing. There's gotta be another way.

I wouldn't think its to lessen vehicles. I think it would be there to emphasize high speed suits. Why use a scout for its speed right now when a heavy in a can wait 2 seconds and get a LAV and beat you to the obby? Because you Wanted to be Something your Not.

If from the deployment screen, you could select a vehicle fitting to spawn in, and then instead of just appearing somewhere, you spawn attached to the RDV, taking a little ride to either of the initial spawn points. You can drop early by pushing X and then dampen with X, or can take the whole ride. The RDVs would be coming from the back of the map, so taking the whole ride would get you closer to the objectives and enemy, but if you think you could drive faster, you have the option. Spawning as a vehicle would only let you pick either of the initial spawn points (and maybe friendly objectives), but not CRUs, mCRUs, or uplinks. Now is the winter of our non-content.
