Most players that are pilots simply are not that good , so it's easy to complain about getting shot down when your not that good to begin with .

Blame it on the swarms all you like but to me from what I see and have experienced by going against other so called pilots , it's more about bad pilots then it is the mechanics of AV weapons and the only reason that people complain about swarms is that , their the best at negating an area , you can't camp over a swarmer for the most part if their good ( you can if your using missiles ) but you can to forges and that's why you don't hear any forge bashing , couple that with their charge time and it's easy to kill a forger , even more so with missiles .

People that don't use swarms don't realize the bugs that they have . You actually have to look at what you've fired at for the damage to register unless their in motion and trying to evade , I was just in a match where I had to look down while avoiding sniper fire and forge fire as well and firing at a LAV didn't register a single shot all the while firing 3 rounds because I wasn't looking at the vehicle after firing , I wasn't taking a death to kill a LAV , second there's a bug that won't allow you to lock on a vehicle at 70 to 90 m , I keep getting this happening to me and have died a lot from this bug but no one talks about either of these because they just want swarms to get a nerf .

Why increase the lock on time .?. so you can farm swarmer's and have a better chance of killing them while in a ADS , I mean , what other reason would you have to do that ?

I have flown ADS's for the longest and before the changes they were OP with the pilot stacking and the ROF , all this to farm infantry and that's really the main issue , it's not about killing other vehicles because ADS's have zero problems doing that , I use to farm HAV's and even PRO HAV's and when I didn't have to deal with the ghost firing rail bug , I dropped ADS's like a fly swatter swatting flies , it's just the fact that these same players just want to farm infantry and that's why they changed the ADS's as well as HAV's .

Look at the OP's statement about HAV's being fine but ADS's need attention , that's just plain bias , ADS's have to deal with nothing compared to HAV's , proxy mines , packed remotes , assault HMG's , swarms , forges , nova knives and AV grenades as well as PLC's all target HAV's and HAV's have nowhere the maneuverability that ADS's have , ADS's can climb and evade if they use AB's but it seems that most who call themselves pilots can't conceive this , I use to evade swarms using AB's constantly and you can hear them being fired ... if your the only vehicle around and someone is firing swarms , chances are their firing at you , I mean , who else could they target ?

These people just have zero situational awareness as well as their wanting need to farm infantry . Stop trying to use vehicles to farm infantry and kill other vehicles , you would find yourself having far more success if you did that , as well as troop transport .

It's more the mentality of these people who call themselves pilots then it is the weapons that's used against them .

Just because you can't best something or someone , doesn't mean that .. their OP or deserve a nerf , maybe you just need to get better at what you do and think more about how you approach a situation .

I refuse to spend another dime on this game until it gets better but to prove a point , I won't do this because I smashed too many pilots and operators all ready and the point being , these pilots that are complaining will still suck .

They just don't see themselves as the problem .

Edit : If Rattati want to fly with a pilot , tell him to message me and I might spend another respec , just so he can make a comparison between myself and others ... I would love to hear his finding and I bet he would say that I was one of the best that he flew with .

That's not bragging , I just know my limits .
