Don't expect any support from the forum trolls, this is type of thing that they love to pick on.  |

Why didn't you have AV in place to take them out before deploying something so expensive? Don't run what you can't afford to lose, right? I've had so many people try and run me over last night and utterly fail because I saw it coming.
So you saying that i should "anticipate", when a moron is going to be driving around looking for free kills ? or never use my best dropsuits just in case is one around ? so what is the point of SP and skill books, if we only going to be using the starter dropsuits all the time, anyway?

People complaining about "collision damage", yet is not collision damage for hitting a hardened dropsuit with shields. |

See those LAV icons running around the map? I sure do.. someone on the team typically gets an eye on them, and during that spawn countdown you get an opportunity to see where it might be going anyway. If you know a HAV is on the field, you deploy heavy AV equipment. If you know LAVs are running around trying to run people over (or you can treat any LAV that's bullrushing skirmish lines like it is) than you keep your head up. If your expensive dropsuit is too expensive, then don't use it. Your trained skills do enhance even the militia suits to some degree. I anticipate vehicles, especially LAVs to be used for anything BUT transport since people invest in getting it brought to ground. Your link about collision damage is irrelevant. I stated I could support the notion of LAVs taking some damage a result of hitting infantry, not asserting that it does, did, or was scaled properly.
I think collision damage is VERY important. It will stop people from going in killing sprees with a LAV, if they know that they can only do it for a limited amount of time, before they blow up. |

Perhaps.. the question would then become "by how much". I'd suspect that a new line of skillbooks could be brought in too.
I think 2 -3 kills max, then you have to decide if you want to call another LAV, and wait 15 seconds, or join the battle and use you gun like every one else. |
