Anyone can look at it crooked and see that no skill is needed to use it. The fact that people defend it just shows who the real scrubs are. Because most vehicle players only look at the direct interaction between their vehicle and the swarm launcher. What these people fail to realize is that running an AV fit is both ineffective (it is unlikely your swarms will kill the dropship if the dropship pilot is paying attention) and also that ALL THE TIME WHEN THE AV PLAYER IS NOT USING HIS SWARMS ON YOU IS TAKEN UP WITH HIM FRANTICALLY AVOIDING AND SCRAMBLING AWAY FROM INFANTRY THAT ARE CONSTANTLY TRYING TO KILL HIM. It takes virtually no skill to use a swarm launcher, it takes a great deal of skill to use a swarm launcher fitting. Every time I catch a swarmer sitting back on a structure sipping beer the whole time. No one is messing with them. That should be the basis for weapon balance. Trading weapon for safety is necessary for playing the game. No one is any different than you are. I go scout I give tank, I go assault I give up stealth, I go ADS I give up being able to dodge in and out of cover with a smaller hit box. Cry me a river. Keep swarms as is and then let there sig light up when they fire on my ADS so I can have a fair chance at shooting them as they do me and then we'll talk about balance. If hes sitting back on a structure sipping beer hes an easy target, and if you cant solo a swarmer then the swarms arent the problem. If the situation is that his team is completely stomping yours and giving him the leisure to just sit there and wait for you, then the swarms again arent the problem. I love how ADS pilots pretend that running a swarm fit is just some WP farming picnic experience because they saw some guy alone one time. If I was in that game on your team that guy would be murdered within half a minute, just because your blueberries were **** doesnt mean running swarms is always equivalent to skipping through the meadows with your girlfriend.And P.S. I agree that ADS needs a lock on warning, better rendering of swarms at distance, etc. Or better yet a complete reworking of swarm launchers so they are more fun for both sides. But seriously **** off with the running swarm launchers takes no skill bull.
It is, though. I literally have an AV alt that I hop on whenever I'm hurting for money. You guys seriously need to stop pretending "but I only have a sidearm" because the only swarmers that aren't minmandos are usually gallogis that are sitting on top of a roof scanning and swarming the occasional vehicle.

Sure, YOUR experience gets full credit while mine gets none, even though I am on both sides of the argument every single day. Seriously, soloing 3 Incubi back to ack to back is not ok.

You can say that it's "blatantly untrue" all you want. You're just trying to protect your wp farm. And yeah, they were **** pilots, but putting out that much dps in such a short amount of time from a weapon that was designed to be a deterrent is completely unreasonable. (To clarify, this wasn't one pilot who kept calling in Icububi, this was three guys circling over me trying to kill me at one time)
