OK I'll troll the troll... You totally can solo a vehicle IRL. In fact, you can get everything you need to blow up a vehicle at home depot, I.e. remote explosives |

This could be interesting. Only thing I would say is that instant right angle turns would be a bit of a bad idea, if you imagine you escape behind a building or hill with 10 armour left and jump out to rep and a missile comes past and right angles directly into the tank or dropship ^^
I agree it sucks, we'd all rather have them curve as they should... But CCP have proven several times they can't implement that, lol. But at least you still have a chance to evade them after they've been fired, rather than the current "it's been shot (& even though I can't see the guy firing it or the swarms) it's gonna hit no matter what."

No different to the plasma cannon currently... And everyone seems fine with that instapopping... Or the forge gun.
You meant to say"...rather than the current "it's been shot (& even though a rocket should be significantly faster than something much more massive) it's gonna dodge by running away in a sttaight line no matter what." |

In New eden this is true as well. Another argument for separating ammo and weapon in dust: Defender missiles. In fact, defender missiles could make lavs a viable escort for havs or alternately fitting a small missile turret on your tank to equip defender missiles would allow the tank to better combat swarms but at the cost of reducing their anti-infantry/av capabilities |
