Here is my vision on how it should work.
Militia- 70% speed reduction with a radius of 30 meters. One carried with only one deployed at a time.
Standard 70% speed reduction with a 45 meter radius, two carried one deployed
Advanced 75% speed reduction with a 45 meter radius, two carried and two deployed
Prototype 75% speed reduction in a 50 meter radius, two carried and two deployed
Have them work like hives except have the FX be red or yellow and have a life span of 3 minutes or so. Of course these are just my ideas so feel free to add you ideas on how they should work or on what you would change. Do you, the community, think that webs would change the AV problem.
Radius? Webifiers are beams.... 30m range?

If a vehicle runs it over, they're slowed X% for X%. This is more or less how I feel like vehicle based webs should function. I'd love to see these things equipped to an LAV that holds a Tank in place until backup arrives. We won't see it until CCP finds a way to make the in-vehicle targetting system much more intuitive though.
I am in agreement.

I'd love to see these things equipped to an LAV that holds a Tank in place until backup arrives. We won't see it until CCP finds a way to make the in-vehicle targetting system much more intuitive though. I am in agreement. My problem with webs only being on vehicles is that it would take a vehicle to web a vehicle which is just more vehicle spam to deal with and vehicle spam is what a lot of us are complaining about. People want AV but only want to solo vehicles with the weapon they like. Infantry shouldn't have to have a vehicle to counter a vehicle. Yes, yes, yes it is like that now I know, you don't have to tell me. The only point I am trying to make is that we, as infantry, should have a way to web a vehicle that doesn't involve another vehicle. I am not saying they are OP/UP, I am not saying they are balanced, I am not saying that CCP are balancing masters or any other words that you think I am trying to say by not saying them. I am only stating that a vehicle web, to me, shouldn't require another vehicle, nothing else. Just that.
Oh I only meant that they should act like rep tools.

May I ask what you don't like about a hive type web?
Would you hate me if I said "it doesn't work like that in EVE"?

Doesn't hurt me, I am a fanboy but I also think that sometimes things shouldn't work like in EVE. EVE doesn't do many things like DUST and so you can't hate me if I say "this isn't EVE"
No it more than that.
I feel what laws apply to New Eden in EVE need to apply to us. The Stasis Webifier is a beam of sorts, almost like firing one of those nets from a harpoon gun to capture something and I understand the tech behind it.....but I do not really have any knowledge of Webifier fields.....could that be like an interdiction bubble?

Yes, like a bubble for setting up traps and blocking off areas but still have an active (like a tool) so a merc could dash out and web a HAV as it passed by for his squad to pop. Bubbles are for warp disruption not speed reduction but yes it would work similar to a bubble, the passive would be be weaker because it is passive but still do the job. Active play should always trump passive but it should not make it useless. Like REs and PMs, REs are active and PMs are passive. REs do more damage because a merc has to do something to make them work.
The passive would have to have a duration, whether in effect or not and a max deployable of say 2, especially depending on range, and a large visual effect. Otherwise I honestly see this being spammed by everyone and their mothers.
