Lol it's just getting a bit silly, golden maniacs dropping little brown pads everywhere and killing proto suits for free without skill, at no cost to themselves. Swap it out to a rep tool or uplink or something else!!!! No need for remotes on an assault, just seen a guy go 25-16... He killed 25 people for free while my caring about losing his own suits. It's just a broken tactic now that arises out of desperation, it's bad enough that smart deploy tends to put you in little boxes or rooms :L

Between that and APEX HMGs jumping out of BPO LAVs, these risk-free scrubby tactics are becoming annoying.
Then again, if I let them get that close to me, it's partially my fault, too. |

The title should be more like: "Can we remove the trashy remote spam now?"
If the RE was meant to be a trap then add a 10-15 second activation delay. If it's going to keep being used like a grenade then make it show up on passive scans. Really needs to be one or the other.

STD REs have an activation timer of what? 5 seconds? To be honest, if someone drops a RE close to your feet, is still alive after 5 seconds, AND you are still in range of the RE, then I'd say 9 out of 10 times you deserved what is coming to you.

However from what I hear the 5 seconds isn't what actually happens in game, at least from what I experience using them.
I don't think REs are the worst abuse by far though.

2,5 seconds. The annouced changes did not evidently go through to live builds.
Add some victim side latency on rendering RE use then the time is something like 1,5 to 1 seconds.
Add human reaction time of 0,5 seconds and we are at that complained 0,5 to 1 seconds which is usually not enough to get out of range.

A friend of mine killed 57 people with the Nomad Assualt..... but then again almost everybody on his side (including me) were running REs. ISK and BPO alike. I still remember how hard those red berries tried!!! It was hilarious.
One might say... I'm very skilled... yet I'm his apprentice... So what does that say about my mentor?

Ok so the other apex suits have equipment that is comparatively trashy compared to proto gear, for example the caldari nanohive and scanner aren't much use at all... In comparison this standard re on the apex nomad is just as effective at killing as any other re, I propose an re where you only have one to start but can stock 2 with nanohives. This would atleast prevent the spawn and die suicide bombers which are frankly just absurd lol

A good tanker can shoot down any such attempt though, just shooting the res on the front is even enough to counter, the whole point with infantry is that the detonation time is not such to warrant any escape for most suits. Atleast with vehicles you can maneuver and attack the incoming jlav

The Apex nomad assault is well tanked and quite speedy. The issue is that this guy doesn't care if he dies 20 times, as long as he takes 40 people wit him in easy 1 shot kill spam and die tactics. At times you are stuck spawning in a room due to smart deploy or uplinks, in such a case, these guys can just keep spawning jumping in and chucking res, often at long distances like 15 m, there is no time to react as even if you move the re isn't where the animation shows, and the range for explosion is larger than one can cover before it primes

Have you tried hit something the size of an ipad with a Large Blaster Turret recently? Have you attempted to aim down in a Gunnlogi?
Sir please if you are going to attempt to make ignorant statements to grossly over simplify a specific act in the game two can play but Pokey got to it first.

Yes I have. All you do is shoot at the front of the incoming lav and it blows up into a fire ball. If you reverse then the acceleration means the lav doesn't even explode when it hits you, just drives along or bounces off. To properly detonate a jlav the tanks momentum needs to oppose that of the lav, this can happen when a tanker reversed into lav, drives straight into one or hits one sideways. Don't exaggerate difficulty, it's detrimental to the process I tank and have used a jlav too, it's just silly to assume the other hasn't experienced the same

I think we're done here.
The entire premise of your complaint is the same as mine was months ago.

If you let someone get close enough to you with REs and stay there for the timer to expire, you deserve to die.
From any perspective however, the APEX is not free as it costs 100k LP and 10mil ISK coupled by the amount of ISK that will be spent while working for the LP required to purchase it.

That's a valid point. Though at this point I can also make a JLAV for about 15,000 ISK all up using dem BPO's.
This could all be resolved is CCP gave me and me alone a Soma Blue Print Original with the words "That could" emblazoned on the side.

Hmm...
I recommending making basic remotes have only one remote. Maybe give it a slight damage buff (but not a range buff) to compensate. It'd still be viable, but harder to use, and would be spammed less.
Who cares what some sniper has to say.

Classy argument. Quote something completely unrelated as a reason to not fix something that is clearly broken.
You're just acting like a toddler, "if I can't get want I want, no one can." If you actually care about your little problem, make a thread about it, otherwise gtfo, because your only purpose in this thread is bitching for the sake of bitching.
Unrelated to the the post I quoted, RE timers are not 5 seconds, so try coming up with a different argument, RE apologists.

I've made the argument before with we reasoned points. There is no longer a reason for the JLAV to continue to exist as in the same manner the OP of this thread has himself stated it is a matter of a specific tactic of weapon applying with little or no cost to the user an instant kill option upon another player.
Now the issue here for me isn't actually OHKO options. I'm very used to those in WT:GF however its the ISK disparity. This particular technique required no ISK investment on the user's part in many cases thanks to LAV and dropsuit BPO mitigating the risks/ negative aspects.
I have no issue with the JLAV being a tool. For example using its inertia to ran the HAV or vehicle for less than OHKO damage pending a follow up of AV grenades or Swarms. However the magic missile guided by player intelligence is immersion breaking.

Wrong. The timer starts as soon as it leaves your hand not after it sticks, so it has the same fuse as a grenade. Probably unintentional behavior.
