EDIT: Damage nerf is GEYYYYYYYY!!!
Also buff swarm launchers. THAT is exactly the opposite of what we need in terms of Vehicle/AV balance. Exactly the ******* opposite. What we need is full content release. Then we need time. Time to establish static AV numbers, identify within the fully fleshed out Vehicle and AV sphere exactly what is what. Then balance vehicles around the static AV damage models. We cannot keep nerfing AV and buffing it from build to build. Or nerfing HAV from build to build. We need all core content for AV and then to balance vehicles around those models.
I agree with this post entirely.
However, in order to do that, I am afraid that they would need to remove all Vehicles and AV until all (basic; i.e. ADS, DS, HAV, LAV) Vehicles were in the game.

I dont feel something that drastic is necessary. Yes I agree HAV are too powerful for what they are, high SP investments arent rewarded as well through the vehicle tiers. But in all honesty I feel AV is in a good place, however balance against HAV specifically is bad. I cannot stress to CCP that racial equality across all suits and vehicles is crucial in successfully balancing this games content. Once we can actually see how all aspects of Vehicles vs AV actually work then we can balance around that. Until then demanding ridiculous 10% or 20% buffs would only harm the game, causing more problems than solving.
Swarms are a ******* joke now.
They either need their damage rolled back or their lock range rolled back, both was one step too far.
TBH, I'd rather they give the lock range back, I am fine with them being an area denial tool and opportunistic vehicle killer.
I've gotten several HAV kills with swarms in 1.7 (no where near what I'd get in a week pre-1.7 though), however, each and every one of them was a kill stolen from a tanker.
