Uh huh. Nova happens to be one of the best players here. Oh and I think he's HAV driver this build. Stay out of what you don't know about to avoid sounding like a Whiney kid(something you seems to hate).

Free LAV are essential, but should probably be restricted to hisec. You have start paying once you leave.

How are they essential? Two builds ago you could call in onikumas free of charge, people would drop them on objectives to prevent hacks, or use them as stationary turrets. Or call them in, drive them somewhere, and ditch them. Last build you had free militia everything... we all remebered how that worked out.

If transportation is the only reason your saying free LAVs then prehaps you should just find a way to encourage people to transport people in a dropship. It is one of the things theyre there for.

Hurfblurf getcha 150k taxi which can't go anywhere while there installations. If your friend feels like it. What's Mr Heavy supposed to do for getting around? LAV blockades seems legit to me. Seen them on every game wth vehicles. Bring Av nades and it's no problem. Now the reason they are essential. I've played bough to know a team can be rolled back to their default spawn in skirmish within 2 minutes. With correctly placed heavy weapons/snipers/HAV it becomes a militia fight for the bottle necked team. There's only 2 sensible options. Stay in your spawn, or call a LAV and attempt to escape. Chances are slim but vastly better than trying to walk past 3 HAV. Yes they're free SP for the enemy. But really, how much do uou want to bill those who are going to fight a losing battle? Or would you rather they all just leave battle (rage quit). The more you charge at the low end, the less likely oeople will stay until TE end of a match. This happens 10 times they won't be comming back to Dust. Free LAV's need to be there. Easiest way to kill someone like me in my nice gear too. Seriously decrease the points on killing RDVs. They are free SP.

Also removing the turret would make it literally a taxi. Just to put this into perspective I played BF3 when it came out. I played Kharg island. I fell in the water and had over 800 meters to te nearest objective. It happened 2-3 times and I just stopped playing. No interest in 1km run/swim. Yes I'm a tit for ending up in the water... 3-4 times... I'll be gutted if I have to pay for my taxi, because I still wont take care of it. I can't take care of it. I have to fight everyone off the objective and cap it alone!!! (standard story for my games). I know join a corp yadah yadah... But tbh I cba. The whole "spies will destroy you" thing is quite off putting. Also groups of 4lol. I just wanna be a merc, and I'll need a LAV to be any use. Tbh I don't mind a token price like AV nades. 2k would seem about right IMHO if you have to give it a price. What if the number of free ones per game was limited. I.e. 3 per game? Any more start charging? Edit: LAV's parked on objectives is legit :D (you did bring av nades right?)
