So the free LAV is quite stable
So i upgraded to the lvl1 LAV the Methana and the Saga
The armor version is very stable
The shield version i can flip it and do barrel rolls in it, while its very funny to do and makes the enemy think wtf it doesnt make for a good LAV
The LAV will barrel roll on any corner you can take, hit a small hill and it will just lose control, the free shield LAV is more stable and its free |

Don't blame the buggy blame the driver, I have used the LAV few times (I mostly spend my time destroying them  ) but I have never barrel rolled while turning a corner. Ever tried slowing down while rounding a corner? |

while the saga is harder to drive it's controllable if you have the skill to do so (although I know what you are speaking of) slow down and drive smart you'll be fine |

There should be a message the first time you enter an LAV that say"s
DRIVE SLOWLY
you dont have to put your feet to the ground all the time.
take your car and try to drive it around town puting your foot on the floor all the time
I guess you will do some barrel rolls
It is great to have a LOT of power and torque into the car to make a fast acceleretion.
but most of the time you dont need to push the throttle at 100% |

Even if you try to take the corner or whatever a bit slower you can still do the barrel roll
I expected the free LAV if anyting to do this but not a better LAV which should be better in everyway like handling |

just drive the methana? i outfitted mine with 3511HP on it and a twin charger handles great and i have flipped my onikuma once going off the side of a manus peak rock spire and it wasn't that annoying, but i also run a BPO guristas saga and thats a shield jeep but i never flipped it and i use jeeps to run people over. i love running forge gunners over they shoot me and they are all "oh yeah gonna destroy this pitiful jeep *bwaaanng OH CRAP ITS ALIVE WHOLLY S- *thump" XD its so worth it. |

I don't get the point of lav's, they suck as a transport since they can't carry a full squad, they suck as a offensive vehicle since hitting people is more of a gimick then a valid tactic.
the price drives another nail into the coffin of lav's because then you can't use them as a disposable transport like you can the freebies, I mean the second you get out an aren't repping someone is either going to steal it or blow it up.
you can use it to rep tanks, but that's hardly a consistent or worth tactic to invest all that sp into.
so what is the point in investing all that sp into using them?
they need a revamp imo, because the current implementation is lacking, when you take into consideration for their intended use + their cost |

actually the lavs themselves aren't that expensive I have scout fits that cost more the upgraded lavs you see on the battlefield however are most likely using some expensive mods dropping the price on these would be welcome indeed |
