WhyAre YouLooking I'm The Captain Now 16	Posted - 2015.05.15 02:48:00 - [1] - Quote Maybe in the future, one day, the infamous Prometheus will make its return. Oh the beauty it had... black n yellow with its freedom powers. Logi dropships need to come back. Please, for the sake of freedom and liberty, the Prometheus needs to come back. Just so I can touch... just one time... I'm the Captain now.
Talos Vagheitan Ancient Exiles. 1259	Posted - 2015.05.15 02:52:00 - [2] - Quote I remember those... Eryx I think mine was. Had a built in CRU. I fitted a useless "shield transporter" on it, which was almost impossible to aim on a friendly vehicle. Good times. !--CCP, let's push for the license of Dust on both current Gen consoles--!
LUGMOS Corrosive Synergy Rise Of Legion. 3989	Posted - 2015.05.15 02:53:00 - [3] - Quote Eryx was better Sniper Rifles are for Nitrogenous Dioxide Borons First to PM me with common name wins (no Hyansaru, u win too much ;P)
Dead Cavino Lunatic.High 88	Posted - 2015.05.15 02:58:00 - [4] - Quote Might as well add the Limbus and Charybdis to the list. R.I.P. Invincible LAVs... I don't like two-legged things.
WhyAre YouLooking I'm The Captain Now 17	Posted - 2015.05.15 03:00:00 - [5] - Quote well tbh... it was... I remember seeing them being tanks in the sky. I do wonder how the Eryx was fitted. All shield boost with one hardener or all hardeners with one shield boost? Anyways, imo the Prometheus looked better in than the Eryx I'm the Captain now.

I can't remember I'm the Captain now.
Glyd Path Nec Tributis 131	Posted - 2015.05.15 03:04:00 - [10] - Quote Considering how much CCP Rattati and squad have jacked AV up, why would you even want to? The current ADS are hugely overpriced, under powered and can only be used if the Reds don't have good AV. Good AV is only ADV, BTW. With damage mods you are history on the third volley, two if they have switched to PRO or Officer weapons. Flying in Dust is a waste of time and ISK. Flying a more expensive, identically armored, and miniscule CPU/PG means that you will lose ISK even faster. Even if you think it is pretty. Nobody at CCP cares because we ain't Legionnaires.

Prox mines at corners or uphill did wonders at taking out LLAV's Better yet if you could seed a few AV nades just before they arrived. Anytime they had to slow down in the slightest prox mines would detonate on time. Was a lot of fun ruining their day with a well placed trap. Acquisition is terrible, matchmaking is terrible, your game is still riddled with bugs, you should feel bad.

So why not die with style. I would fly for the fun and the little adrenaline in dog fights. Isk is not the problem for anyone really. Just earn it back by playing smart or militia. I know how the game is right now. I wondered about AV back then. You know, at least he's trying. It's all trial and error. I'm the Captain now.

I can't remember They were alot more powerful than they are now... like... alot more powerful. Like proto was 330 dmg per missile with 6 missiles and 400m lock on range. And yet those were the good old days for vehicle pilots.

I don't actually remember myself or my personal LLAV guardian ever dying to any kind of AV with the LLAV... I mean, c'mon, over 70% passive shield resistance and lots of shield + logi capability on vehicles... Well, what I remember LLAVs dying to was accidentally ramming friendly tanks or getting rammed by friendly tank. On the other hand they did cost like 300k or more ISK IIRC.

I understand where you are coming from but the absolutely horrible imbalance between AV and dropships (specifically ADS) takes the fun out of it. How can you have a dog fight when you are dodging invisible swarms. Any volley of which can turn you to rubbish if you aren't at maximum shields and armor. Two volleys of Wyr swarms and you sir are dead. That's not fun. And is the very reason I rarely fly anymore. Nobody at CCP cares because we ain't Legionnaires.

I can't remember No. They were incredibly powerful, it's just that the ships were oozing raw hp.

I fitted a useless "shield transporter" on it, which was almost impossible to aim on a friendly vehicle. Good times. And to think people want those worthless vehicle reps and logi LAVs back. I mean, have they ever tried to use one? I got logi dropships after the skill system was revamped. Pretty sure they were always fairly easy to use, though. Logi LAVs, on the other hand, were a nightmare to skill into before the skill revamp. Pretty sure you needed repair tool operation 5, along with level 5 in your LAV of choice. I got one right before the revamp, then felt like an idiot because they suddenly became way easier to skill into. Some details can be ignored
CommanderBolt KILL-EM-QUICK Rise Of Legion. 3532	Posted - 2015.05.17 06:07:00 - [22] - Quote I feel you OP. I too would love to see logistics vehicles come back. For me I wish that the LLAV`s were back. Charbdyis - the only time there has ever been a shield transfer tool in the game and it was so badass! Yes it was fiddly to use the controls but this is DUST I am a master of fiddly controls Vitantur Nothus wrote: Why hide a solution under frothy pile of derpa? SCV Ready!

Oh,you rather want those days when dropships were so overpowered it was like tank on air?I started to play Dust when those times were on and that was ****.But now,dropships are in the right place.No more easy game for dropsih monkey pilots. Public skirmish = camping games, Public domination = officer sniping games, Public ambush = russian roulette
