I know this isn't EVE. I am not stating that AV/vehicles are balanced. I understand there is a problem with AV. I understand that you think CCP doesn't listen or know how to balance things. I understand that you may believe that another patch may not come for a year. I know that the game has problems. I am not trying to say anything about balance, timely releases, quality of released content, competence of CCP or players or anything other than the following:
I hope that CCP's intention is to introduce an AV suit that buffs AV weapons and/or grenade count. I am trying to stay optimistic, they said that medium frames were being tweaked and I am hoping they will be adding an AV suit to the medium lineup. If that is the case then AV may become better soon and if they add webs that slow down vehicles then AV would be a lot more powerful and allow us to set traps and block areas off or at least make them think twice before entering. I am also hoping that they get smart and add a heavy laser weapon that kills shields on vehicles. The PLC works but need a weapon that works much like the LR to fight shield hardened vehicles, damage goes up over time and really strips shields.

Basically you make light AV weapons not be a light, heavy or sidearm weapon but instead make it a ....."AV weapon".
(AV weapons can still be fitted in a light weapon slot, but light weapons cannot go in an AV weapon slot)
You give the suit 2 AV weapon slots, one grenade slot, 2 equipment slots, no sidearm. Module slot layouts based on race.
You give it scout-like speed so it is capable of avoiding infantry and keeping up some-what with vehicles. You give it commando~heavy tiered EHP so that it has the health to fight off vehicles and survive engagements with infantry (again, it can only fit light AV weapons). Finally, you give it a direct % damage buff for light AV weapons and a direct % damage resistance to turret damage based on race.

I like it, I don't agree with no infantry based weapons on the suit but at the same time it would give the suit some flavor and make them very unique and specialized. I say add the damn suits and let us work it out over time.
