When someone calls in an ADS or tank, it is -1 infantry unit for their team, but it forces 2 infantry on the opposing team to counter that vehicle if destroying it is the desired result. If the opposing team only dedicates 1 infantry unit to AV, then that will allow the vehicle to get kills, while the vehicle is very unlikely to be destroyed, resulting in an unbalanced likelihood of clone loss. One infantry in a DS can also defend an area much more effectively that one infantry, has much more mobility, and requires many more infantry dedicated to retaliating.
You have to pick between higher efficiency but harder counters, or lower efficiency but less effective counters. Vehicles pilots seem to insist on having the best of both. Currently, it isn't as bad as it has been in the past, but there is still a bit of imbalance, imo.
But have you seen the cost?
With the current strength of sidearms and the commando suit I don't see it as a loss to infantry to run a swarm launcher. Yes if you're running an assault, but why would you put a swarm launcher on an assault?

When you say risk/reward what do you mean?
if it's risk of death then who gives a **** about KDR, my vehicle alt KDR is barely over 1 as i run starter fits in ambushes to fund my expensive ADS habit
if you're talking ISK then risk/reward was balanced (i'm only hating on swarms) |
