There are no BPO swarm launchers, so you must be referring to the starter fit. If you think that a swarm launcher starter fit is OP with how far the game has advanced as of right now, you have more problems than just the swarm launchers. It can only fire 2 volleys before having to reload, the reload is longer than the basic swarm launcher, and the suit only has one low powered slot, so they either have a single armor plate there or an armor repair mod. You are reaching way too far. |

And you may have noticed that out of all things I might have complained about proto AV but did I ever?NO.
Cause you know what , those guys did invest time , sp and money into their gear and I feel totally chill when someone kills me (they rarely do but keep me pinned down)
So get your head out of your a** and see the point I'm trying to make scrubs. Quit trolling threads.
No one is trolling, your logic is flawed and people are telling you so. If you can't have a discussion without accusing everyone who disagrees with you of trolling, then maybe you aren't ready for a discussion. And Militia Swarms aren't free, they take 1 death to get into, and another to get out of. I sincerely doubt anyone is going to survive an entire match with just their side-arm, so that's 2 guaranteed deaths for anyone who wants to switch into AV... unless they have a supply depot, then it's still your teams fault for allowing them to capture it.
Actually.... last build I specced SMG's and tore it up with an SMG/Swarm combo on the old Manus Peak, but that's a special case since I specced for it. Overall, agree, agree, agree. Oh, and +1 |

You don't take $500 to a casino and blame the wheels in the slot machines for eating all of your money. You put the money (tank) into the machine (battle) and didn't like the way the wheels spun (random enemy tactics), but you can't blame the the wheels or the machine, you are the one who put your money at risk in the first place.
I love abstract analogies.... =D |

In battles with SP totals at the current levels, 99 times out of 100 you are slaughtered before you can reload the first time. You are taking a huge gamble by trying it. You are not only putting yourself at huge risk of death, you are taking away 90% of your ability to help your team.
Also, the OP has no way of knowing every one of those players was running militia swarms. All he knows is that the last missile that hit him was one from a militia swarm. For all he knows, every other swarm on the field could have been proto swarms. |

In corp battles sure, but how many people actually care about the team in instant battles? All the AFK's don't, that's for sure.
The winning team makes more money and SP at the end of the match, I honestly don't understand why people WOULDN'T want their team to win. But I guess I'm just old-fashioned.... |

That's not true. Any decent tank driver knows to count the number of missiles in each swarm. It's very important, because depending on the number of missiles in each swarm and the people shooting at you, you know if you can tank the damage or you need to start running. 4 missiles = Militia/Standard SL. 5 = Advanced 6 = Proto. And to the OP, sorry but I disagree. Newbies need that starter fit. God knows that if CCP didn't give it to them, they would not create an AV fit for themselves for a month and a half, at least.
When 7 swarmers are hitting you, you really can count every single missile in the air and every hit you take? While shooting enemies, trying to find a place to hide, and trying to keep your reppers and hardners managed. That's 28 missiles possible in the air at once, not counting the fact that they can fire off more than one volley in the space of 5 seconds. That's 28 IF they were all militia. Ok rainman, if you say so. |
