Is it just me or is it a bit insane that a bolas has 4000 shields and 3200HP armor? Its not a combat vehicle, its a delivery vehicle for christ sake. Those insane high HP values and the fast delivery of vehicles makes it near impossible for AV or tanks to destroy them. Reduce the numbers to somewhat low maybe to 2000 shields and 1000 armor. That way the thing could be destroyed with 3 swarm volleys. I want to be aible to earn the 150WP for destroying one and not need 3 guys with AV to take one down.

God no. Weakening bolas' HP means that any forge gun could just blap every vehicle out of the sky the moment it gets called in. Frankly, I'd rather get rid of them completely and have assets constructed on the field. RDV broadcasts the vehicle to the entire enemy team; by the time it's properly deployed they've already got the proper AV counter out.

There's many valid reasons to still have them, especially if/when we move to a better platform and we are able to have larger maps. New ingame assets won't happen anytime soon for Dust on PS3 anyways due to memory limits, so we'll just have to wait.

Would you agree that SD's health should be reduced, and shooting at a SD should lower HP's from spawn at SD's? Because that's only fair.

Yes, let us focus on this instead of the countless problems this game has. (Which this is not one.)
Also, I believe they are meant not to be shot at.

Well, They are, by high alpha weapons in groups. Otherwise, it's more sensible to just shoot at the vehicle it's carrying.

...it IS more sensible to shoot at the incoming threat while it's defenseless rather than the extra war points...

Couldn't they just use the recalling animation (when the vehicle disappears) and just reverse it, so it appears? They can keep the sound effect, and have it appear a few feet off the ground to prevent any terrain glitches.

not if the vehicle in question gets put upside down. For dropships and tanks its hillarious to watch.

If yo can shoot at the RDV and down it, it often times flips or kills the vehicle, so kill two birds with one stone.

There would still need to be an installation that does all of this, which doesn't exist.

What installation?
Do you know the animation where you recall a vehicle and it disappears into blue hexagons?
Looks something like this?
Ignoring priorities like framerate, surely CCP has the manpower to reverse the animation so it materializes vehicles the same way it dematerializes them, doing away with the RDV entirely, right?

It used to be possible to crash bolas.
But the RoF nerfs to forge guns killed that with fire.

OB's are not common due to their high WP requirements and i highly doubt it that you see 3-4 avers gathering quickly enough before the bolas flys away.

Yes, I know the animation, that's not the point. There's no installation model, or any code to allow for any of this yet, and would need to be built, as well as having enough space to support multiple people spawning in vehicles.

well, I've seen this happen countless times. Usually in the red line and there are no decent blobs to strike. |
