Breakin Stuff Goonfeet Special Planetary Emergency Response Group 8159	Posted - 2015.04.19 14:09:00 - [1] - Quote It's not perfect. While locking/charging or firing, AV weapons ad +100 to the profile Db. Any profile greater than 100 automatically causes a radar blip to flash rapidly AV
Scheneighnay McBob And the ButtPirates 6084	Posted - 2015.04.19 14:23:00 - [2] - Quote Makes sense, if swarm launchers use ******* echolocation. Some details can be ignored
Mikel Arias Challengers 506 112	Posted - 2015.04.19 16:11:00 - [3] - Quote Interesting idea. I like it.
Mobius Wyvern Storm Wind Strikeforce Caldari State 6122	Posted - 2015.04.19 17:19:00 - [4] - Quote Yes, every other combined-arms game I have played gives some warning to a player when they are locked-up by a seeker weapon. Dust would benefit from this as well. I support Keshava for Gallente Specialist HAV R.I.P. Kesha

Alena Ventrallis Ahrendee Inc. Negative-Feedback 3021	Posted - 2015.04.19 18:50:00 - [6] - Quote I want this too, but Rattati has already said he won't add in any sort of lock warning. HE seems to harbor a grudge against vehicles. Whirly gun make much thunder! - Victor

HE seems to harbor a grudge against vehicles. I'm kind of curious about this, myself. Warnings for a lock-on weapon being used on you are pretty much universal in all combined-arms games. I'm more inclined to believe it's a matter of resources. I support Keshava for Gallente Specialist HAV R.I.P. Kesha

HE seems to harbor a grudge against vehicles. I thought he said that lock on mechanisms couldn't be added. Not that he didn't want them. I actually just found the source. My guess is that is is some fundamental coding problem more than a resource problem, largely because its in the same category as multiple grenade slots and the Rail Rifle damage curve Source: Rattati's Big Board of Things - "Evaluated = No" I got enemies, got a lot of enemies , got a lot of people tryna drain me of this energy
Breakin Stuff Goonfeet Special Planetary Emergency Response Group 8167	Posted - 2015.04.20 07:24:00 - [9] - Quote My idea is not perfect and really hoses me in my preferred role in many ways. But it's an idea for a workaround on the lock warning issue. No-warning AV means that when vehicles are reasonably balanced AV will always get a shot in before the active defenses go up. AV
Megaman Trigger Ready to Play 285	Posted - 2015.04.20 11:26:00 - [10] - Quote Going by the numbers in the example, AV users are going to be lit up on the TACNET like a Christmas tree on fire. That would pretty much kill any chance the AV have of setting up an ambush, since vehicles (and everyone else on the red team) will know where they are the moment they start charging. Instead, what if Swarm volleys produced a warning beep like Proximity mines? That would give pilots some sort of warning regarding in bound AV without completely screwing over AV. Purifier. First Class.

Maiden selena MORTIMOR Amarr Templars Amarr Empire 473	Posted - 2015.04.20 12:14:00 - [11] - Quote I would like it if FOR DROPSHIPS ONLY you had a warning that you were gunna be hit by missiles The death of love
Spkr4theDead Red Star. 3177	Posted - 2015.04.20 16:57:00 - [12] - Quote Why do you care? You don't play nor use vehicles. Nope. Confirming that pilot input is not, and never was, valued. - Breakin Stuff
Shamarskii Simon The Hundred Acre Hood Rise Of Legion. 352	Posted - 2015.04.20 18:58:00 - [13] - Quote Ratt said not possible before. But i disagree. Give the swarms themselves a dB... And make that thing light up the tacnet baby. Or... Make an invisible sphere around the dropship that extends 100-150m out... Give it hit detection... But it doesn't destroy the object... So it's just intangible per se. Enter that sphere then WOOP WOOP away. Or just make it like proxies that fly. Hmm.. The ADS tourney! Join today!

Sgt Kirk Fatal Absolution Negative-Feedback 10213	Posted - 2015.04.20 20:18:00 - [15] - Quote Thing is swarms lock on too damn fast to react to a missile lock. By the time you hear it it will have already fired. I guess some reaction time is better than none though. *As long as 5/6 (83%) of infantry AV weapons are Anti Armor based you're never going to achieve vehicle balance CCP*

Having that moment to activate your shield hardener(s), which would actually help shield vehicles compared to armour. Alt of Halla Murr. Sentinel.

By the time you hear it it will have already fired. I guess some reaction time is better than none though. The length of the lock on time is irrelevant if the point of the warning is to sound on lock on, not on attempt. And in my understanding, the point of the lock on warning isn't so much to be able to somehow avoid the lock, but having advance warning of the incoming hit and being able to start reacting to it, and also increasing the chance of avoiding follow up shots... as it is, often the first warning a pilot will have is the actual hit itself, at which point there may already be another volley on the way. Have you considered installing the improved keyboard? "Go Go Power Rangers!"
