This statement has been proven wrong numerous times. After all, you play DUST.

The mere thought that playing video games makes one relevant somehow has to be the most hilariously stupid thing anyone has ever said on these forums.

Congratulations.

You win the "No one cares what you think still" award.

In my experience geniuses don't have to claim it. It is evident. You fail utterly.

It makes one relevant as far as conversation about video game mechanics go. Simply put, I understand them -- you do not.

That can change, though. I am still taking students for this Winter. $45 an hour and I guarantee after each session you will be far less garbage than you were prior.

The truth is a single AV player should be enough to threaten and/or disrupt vehicles, but actually killing them should be difficult, but not impossible, depending on the situation, each player's skill, and a multitude of other variables. If a single AV player could easily kill a vehicle, then vehicles would be worthless once 2-3 players used AV. It's a balancing game, and vehicles should have a slight edge, but that's not to mean that they should be an "I win" button. Any AVer should be a thorn in the side of a pilot unless dealt with immediately, either by fleeing or engaging. My opinion, rather neatly summed up. Nicely done. Doable is demanded. Easy kills are not fun, nor should anyone seek to make vehicles trivial kills.

I used to solo marauders back in the day and was pretty good at it. Here is the kicker: I only realized there was a weakspot that is exploitable about two months ago. I banged my head on the desk pretty hard in response and I've been ganking HAVs since chromosome. I was doing it the hard way the whole two years. Doing it the hard way is kinda fun.

AV ISN'T in line for significant buffing. Nor should it be. The only buffs are making swarms able to outrun a dropship (by 10 meters per second) while nerfing the 90-degree cornering. This is not a bad tradeoff. The other is accelerating the laughworthy plasma cannon projectile so it can actually apply its power and not simply be a troll weapon/AoE shotgun. But there are no damage buffs in line for AV. The two buffs are solely to allow our under performing AV (swarms and plasma cannon) to be able to land hits in decent fashion. There should be little to no change in time to kill. ADS will still take 4 pro swarm shots to kill. Plasma cannons wont be utterly dependent upon the "surprise buttsex!" Maneuver. Thats it. No forge buffs. No increases to heavy damage mods. No increase of av base damage.

I'd love CCP's comment as well. Truthfully, I feel that a single devoted AV'er, when properly fitted, should be able to solo a vehicle. He has assumed the role of AV'er. If he can't destroy vehicles on his own then why bother having the role? A vehicle user has dedicated a ton of skill points and ISK to killing everything around him. If someone can thwart his efforts with a single cost-efficient pea shooter, why should anyone run vehicles? The AVer is similarly vulnerable to hostile infantry with peashooters that are helpless against your vehicle. Infantry < tank < av < Infantry < tank < av < Infantry < tank < av Notice a pattern? Vehicles are rock. Av is paper. Infantry is scissors. And I have dedicated a lot of ISK and SP to killing your vehicles. Why should that be relegated to a sideshow? Vehicle users seem to have this belief that more money should be rewarded with invulnerability. This is not good design space.

This BS about it being unfair for a 1v1 25m sp AV vs. A 25m sp vehicle to be only slightly lopsided In the vehicle's favor is hilarious. You bastards won't be happy until 5 v 1 is slightly lopsided in the vehicle's favor while retaining the ability to farm infantry for easy WP. The entitlement issues are overpowering in here.

These are usually the ones in here bitching about how unfair it is that AV gunners can blow up their blinged out autism chariots.
Breakin Stuff Goonfeet Special Planetary Emergency Response Group 2899	Posted - 2014.09.20 07:32:00 - [10] - Quote Gunnlogis are hit or miss with swarms. It literally depends on whether they are running an overtanked setup and whether they have a hardener. Swarms versus a hardener on a gunnlogi is don't bother. Wait for a better opening. An overtanked gunnlogi without a hardener takes 5 shots from a forge not in the back arc. This isn't a problem IMHO. People keep forgetting that the only issue is dropships outrunning swarms. The buff to the weapon ONLY corects that one thing. It means that dropship pilots can no longer afford to loiter as long beforw bugging out. The changes will not affect tanks except if you get behind a building the swarms will not pull a 90 degree corner and still hit you. Nor will they be able to pull a 180 and chase a dropship unerringly. That is the intended fix. There is none of that "AV needs to be an automatic win butan. If AV were to be made an autokill on vehicles I would be protesting the changes, not gloating that I can farm expensive vehicles. This crybabying is bloody amazing.

All I can do now is offer you the charity of recognizing how stupid you are. Nice personal attacks. Unfortunately your position is only supported by "I want it this way" in defiance of both precedent and evidence to the contrary. I'm afraid your poison analogy was stretching credulity quite a bit.
