It's funny how tanks get the notification of proxies, but LAVs get destroyed without warning... you'd think an LAV would run right past them, while tanks, that are slower (in most cases when unaware of proxies), would be destroyed as they are crawling over them. Strange... |

Strange... I drive LAV's and hear the beeps so what's your point ? Believe it or not , LAV's move faster than tanks ... so maybe your speed caused you to not hear the beeps . Yes I said that because tanks slow down for encounters while LAV's don't for the most part .
50% of the time I'll run across a bridge or road and explode for no apparent reason, the killfeed proves otherwise. I'm not saying they're OP or anything, they're fine as is, but spontaneous combustion is quite daunting. Proxies are quite loud, and it could be that the game is just glitching out. For example, when a strike is called in, you don't always hear the preparing sound, and any hopes of running away are gone... instantly. LAV's can move substantially faster than tanks, I'm aware of this, especially with a nitrous. If proxies can activate instantly for a fast vehicle, it just doesn't make sense that they wouldn't for a slower one that's practically crawling...

Would like to know how you got strung into their path though. I lose LAVs to them do to this damnable need for speed.  Can't even remember the last time a beep could be heard. Frankly CCP should just get rid of it. Let vehicle scanners up to matching types (Basic, Adv, Proto) detect the mines.
If vehicles could scan proxies, then what would the point to them be? They're a trap, a tactic. You may as well inform the opposing team that you're all heading to the side of the the objective to ambush them... |
