Problem: As things are now LAVs enable too many scrubby playstyles.
Solution: LAVS should blow up when any two light weapons empty a clip into them.
Justification: LAVs are far too survivable, and we shouldn't have to bring out AV grenades or swarms or forges to destroy them.
Do you agree? |

but i think AV and vehicles should be far more expensive. everyone and their mother used proto swams to take out vehicles. if both were expensive, you would see far less of both which i would like

The only way a LAV is a viable threat is a HMG drive by, and this is a matter of the lack of enter/exit animations, not the LAV itself.
They have literally zero presence in PC and you want them needed even more?

They need to be removed from the game entirely. I hate LAVs.
Replace them with a combat-ready vehicle, preferably one with a roof and armour to protect occupants.

Lol, not even. If anything LAVs need a buff or at least a better, more survivable T2 variant.
My idea is this: all LAV BPOs are stripped of their slots and can only be used a paper thin transports (keeps turret for 3rd person). STD LAVs get slight bonuses to ehp/fitting including more slots. Also, new assault variant that isn't paper thin for actual combat.

LAVs should not be destroyable by conventional Light Weapons. On the other hand, it's Base HP is too strong, allowing it to take multiple hits without fitting anything.
However, LAVs (at least where the Saga is concerned) is honestly terrible outside of Murder Taxis. So, I would suggest reducing their Base HP but at the same time making their layouts 1/3 or 3/1, allowing them to fit a better tank than before, but being easily destroyed if they don't fit their vehicle.

There are only two types of AV, and both do tank level damage. As such, all the vehicles need tank-level defenses in order to survive.
The best (or at least easiest) way to curb this would be to give AV different damage profiles against the different tiers of vehicles (just as an example, swarms do 75% damage to LAVs, 85% damage to DSs, and 100% to tanks). From here, CCP could tailor the ehp of each vehicle and the damage of AV to come up with an individual balance for each one.
The only other options are to have all vehicles have similar ehp (and be too weak, too strong, or all the same) or to come up with different variants of weapons that are more effective on different targets (which I don't think AV would like too much).

One thing video games have generally stayed true to is when you shoot a jeep with an antitank weapon it explodes.
There is no justification for making light vehicles less vulnerable to heavy weapon attack.
Faster? Sure.
More maneuverable? Absolutely.
More able to weather heavy, incoming antitank battery fire?
Only DUST tries to do this.
The people who resist keeping jeeps fragile historically have been people using jeeps for easy bumper kills, HMG sentinel poptarts and jihad jeep drivers.
Everyone else views them as expendable and cheap transportation.
The exceptions to the last statement take the time to fit them properly and use them for mobile recon and fast attack truuet work.

Can we just agree that the reason lav's are murder taxi's is the poor execution of the turret?
I mean, You can't do drive by's due to bad hit detection and the wonky turret mechanics. The only time it can work is if your motionless, but then you are vulnerable to all types of attacks.
I say due what Atiim said and reduce base HP. So they are not Tanks and actual LIGHT attack vehicles. and fix the turret so it can actually hit enemies while still moving at a REASONABLE speed, not flying through everybody.
Or make it a drone turret to where you can fit modules on it for it be to effective. leaving the LAV unfitted will make the turret respond to threats slow and unreliably.

Before grenade count was reduced, I could take out an LAV with all of my AV grenades. Now... If I am lucky, High tier packed AV grenades will work, but I usually also need a nanohive to destroy one.
I don't think it's that bad. The ones I can't destroy instantly are the ones who fit hit point modules, and I think they deserve to survive... unless they don't leave in time for my grenades to come back.
If this game was fun, I wouldn't be playing it.

lavs are crap as hell. driving them turns you into a handicapped child. every small rock will let you flip over. i had a game a week before were i tried to hunt a tank with a proto forge. then i tried to drive down a small hill only to suddenly roll sideways and causing to explode my lav in a blink of an eye -.-''
thank god i changed my mind and didnt used an officer forge... |

Fitted LAVs aren't the problem. Its that an Unfitted MLT LAV is still very viable at road killing, transport, and LAVHeavies(which are a problem by themselves)...
My idea is to reduce base stats, but give them higher fitting resources. That way an unfitted MLT LAV is a deathtrap, but a fitted LAV will get the job done fine.

You are not the intended target of my commentary this time, or the OP's if I understand correctly.
A properly fitted HAV by someone who isn't a lazy git looking for a cheap ride should be rewarded with durability and survivability.
The tourist driver who runs empty slots should not.

there were exceptions, you know, the weirdos who put actual SP into them and actually put proper fittings on?
Fortunately they were in the minority. Most LAV drivers were stupid bumper kill farmers.

This was before they homed in on vehicles - instead of heat seekers, we used to get proximity AV grenades, lol.
All LAV's would die to any AV nade OHK back then, lol.
As for now - I do think it's unbalanced, but not for the people suffering from murder taxi's - It needs a drastic HP reduction and more slots with higher PG/CPU - make it a true skeleton vehicle that requires SP to do anything with.
and btw - LAV's murder taxi's suck. Anyone crying about them is absolutely just refusing to put an AV grenade on there suit that completely counters it.
