Earlier today I would've agreed with you. But the more I use the updated PLC, the more I appreciate Delta's changes. I freely defer to your expertise, though I'd respectfully urge you to give it a shot. Gaz wants his ego stroked by people watching his videos going "OMG SOO CUUEL!!11!"
Sure, plasma cannon isn't as hard to hit targets anymore but it's still one of the most skill required weapons in the game, even with speed increased and arc decreased.
People who want the exaggerated parabolic arc back are usually the type that didn't want to accept (and fought against even) that the plasma cannon was intended as AV. Giving selfish reasons as to why. This is no different.

You know what, I don't want to inflame the forums with my old ways. This old dog will just have to learn new tricks. If so many people like it, who am I to make CCP change something That the community likes and is not detrimental to gameplay

Please let me know how I hit a running HAV behind a stupid little slope/hill (or dropship parked on a high point that isn't directly hitable) now instead of lashing out at people with stupid bullshit...wasn't a problem with the old arc (and speed) . |

As good as hitting stuff with an arc is, it's a cannon not a mortar, it works far better as a close range AV weapon that is capable of hitting vehicles now without guess work with a the old arc.

I love it as is and I wouldnt change it personally.
Yea of course see if CCP can make a vairaint with more of an arc. My personal issue is, the weapon has reasonable range now. Bringing back more arcing would just make it a lot harder to engage vehicles again.
I know you can attack vehicles with the arc, but the second they start moving away the plasma cannon struggles more and more to get a hit off. You dont have that problem with swarms and forges until they get out of range or break line of sight. They are my reasons for keeping the PLC as is.
But again, like I said, I would love to see a secondary version with more arcing if that's what some of the old PLC vets want. (Ive only been using the PLC a month or two so I have adapted to the changes quite fast)

PLC as close range AV? If you use it for close range then you shouldn't have had troubles with the arc in the first place.
Another example...a vehicle behind a fence: the old PLC would easily hit it while I'm safe in cover, the new PLC? Can't hit it because it flies over the vehicle or against the fence unless There is nothing between me and the vehicle (making you vurnable)
The arc is needed. |

OK I'm convinced because Breaking stuff is able to hit dropships at the cost of other stuff the PLC used to do. |
