I know...

Welllll..... Looks like I'm gonna have to use all my isk on dem ishikones now...

You will be getting triple the isk already, vehicles are just a starting base. It takes money to fit them with the right stuff to make them decent enough to take some hits. My cheap fit is about 800k isk, so you will be able to buy 5 150k isk fits to help you counter my tank. Get with some of you corp mates and have fun killing all the vehicles this weekend.

Thing is, you'll go 30/0 for 5 rounds and I'll die 15 times in that same span of time. You'll be able to afford another 2 fit tanks at the end while I will have lost around a million and a half all told. ($200k/suit x 15 = 3m iskies lost while earning approximately 1.5m.) It is horribly imbalanced in favor of you tank whores^Wdrivers

EDIT: Numbers are pre-triple isk as ccp has shown a preternatural ability to mess up even the most trivial of multipliers

The whole point of the next week or so is to see how AV reacts to tons of vehicles. You guys are actually pretty damn lucky. Also, ISK will be handed to everyone. Wallet bursting amounts. Enjoy.
Ribbons Reborns Doomheim 68	Posted - 2012.11.20 01:40:00 - [5] - Quote I feel your pain Beers, my Heavy AV suits cost me a lot as well even though its my secondary role. I'm looking forward to the tripled ISK rewards so I can fund those suits a bit more easily. Of course, I hope that when Wednesday rolls around CCP doesn't screw up the multiplier like they did at the start of double SP week y'know? Should be even better practice against all the tanks and derpys that are gonna be around this week.

This game is in a sorry state in terms of what can hurt what. take for example swarms vrs Drop ships and swarms vrs LAVs. a swarm launcher can't even touch a novis DS pilot, but any unskilled (that is to say in in SP) player can keep the streets clear of LAV's with a milita swarm launcher and a nano hive. hop fully we will get more tools soon to deal with this.

Wakko03 Better Hide R Die 134	Posted - 2012.11.20 16:33:00 - [20] - Quote Nah, saw it already last night. The framerate lag, the 5 enemy LAV's, the 2 tanks and the 2 dropships, had the framerate at about 5 frames a second.... followed quickly by Killed by Missile. Those of you who are vehicle are just waiting to pounce on those foolish enough to try to take you out. Which is why I am going to drop this little gem here: (I don't know if this has been suggested already, so if it has I apologize to the person who may have posted this already.) Since AV grenades no longer work on Infantry, I say it is high time that vehicles suffer the same effect. Meaning that missles should no longer work on infantry, they should only work against installations and other vehicles.

And as I predicted elsewhere, CCP takes away with one hand as it gives with the other. The missile nerf hurts the dropship far more than half off hulls helps it.
