In the thousands and thousands of matches played since the beginning of Dust ...
Have infantry AV squads every ROFL stomped a match?

Amen brother

There's a reason why Vehicle Pilots aren't entitled to Ambush Contracts, and it's because the game mechanics (such as the "Smart" Spawn and Map Design) inside of Ambush caused vehicles to be inherently overpowered.

What design mechanics in Skirmish allow AVers to be theoretically invulnerable, while killing Vehicles with ease regardless of tactics they attempt to utilize?

Also, CCP effectively banned Swarm Launchers from Ambush, but do you see AVers complaining?

Uprising 1.0-1.6 all match every match

I'm raising my hand. I don't like Ambush without vehicles and I don't see that it has stopped one team from dominating the other most matches.

This thread went into an entirely different direction than I wanted. Don't reply, let it die.

If vehicles aren't in every mode, what use would AV have in those modes?

Any modes without vehicles should be without AV right?

Unless there is a joke here I am not getting. Then its on me.

@Harpyja

I'm killing off threads like these before they start. I'd rather not have a "Nerf Swarms" campaign because some scrub can't pull 80/0 scores by simply standing still and letting reps do the work for him. If I have to be "too serious", then so be it.

Smart Spawn isn't limited to V/AV situations, but V/AV situations were where they did the most harm to players.

That only works if the pilot willingly allows for him to be near an Infantry spawn location, which is an issue of incompetence (while common with vehicle pilots, is in no way a valid argument when discussing balance). Though if multiple players decide to work together to destroy something, it should die very quickly.

Only 2m SP? Good luck taking down anything other than a Tourist, let alone trying to fit a Swarm Launcher without having to run crappy modules on your Dropsuit.

Not really. The primary (and in most AVers cases, only) source of income and WP is from the destruction of vehicles, meaning that it's removal guarantees that they won't be able to be successful in any fashion in Ambush, to the same extent of Vehicle Pilots. Also, the investment is far beyond 2m SP, so I'll just laugh at the rest of that paragraph as it has no credibility.

I'm grabbing a bite to eat, but I'll be back soon to remove the credibility from your 2nd post as well.
