Also, it's VERY easy to hit someone with missiles when you can't see them. Those big arcs down by A and B are easy to shoot at, you can launch it diagonally and hit up to the middle of it with 250-550 damage.
I understand that it's "working as intended" or "it's a valid tactic" but we all know that even though it's working as it was coded to or that it's valid, it's still cheap and ruins the fun of the game. Gasp! Me wanting to actually play a fun and competitive game? It's just unfair and needs a little tweaking.
I suppose I just suck for being unable to blow them up but I feel like it's a valid complaint, but everyone has their own opinion on the subject.
Again....use the swarm launcher, you can lock onto him from hundreds of meters away. I probably blow up 10-15 vehicles a match with the swarm launcher, many of which are shooting at me, and many of those with rockets. Fun fact, once you lock onto a vehicle, the lock will hold even if you move out of the line of sight. You can then fire the missiles to the side, they'll arc around the edge of your cover, and go shooting off towards the locked target.
Normal grenades and small arms fire (Aka anything other than a Forge Gun, HMG, or Swarm Launcher) is not going to do much to properly fit vehicle.
I have very little sympathy for people who complain about vehicles, when they can very easily train swarm launchers and make a cheapy loadout to take them out. I mean I hate to sound cold man, but you gotta use the tools available to you. If what you're doing isn't working, switch to a different tactic.
You have to understand, this is EVE, where nice guys finish last and the spoils of war go to the smartest *******. People will not play fair, they will be cheap, and they will screw you over every chance they get. Its brutal and its not always pleasant, but its what makes EVE an amazing, and horrible universe to play in. |
