Meh, I run a tank on my alt and find them pretty underwhelming as they are, no need to nerf them farther. |

Vehicles spamming fire is what they were designed to do. |

Vehicles spamming fire is what they were designed to do. Vehicles are designed to provide transportation and heavy fire support on the battlefield. They hardly need unlimited ammunition to be able to do this. Besides, you can just put your HAV up on that mountain next to your buddy's LLV, and you can spam to your heart's content while giving him some well-deserved WP. And then the lucky guy that drops an OB on both of you gets extra kills. 
The problem I have with your LLAV theory is LAVs suck. Nobody will spec into them except for the mentally ill who want to die **** tons just to get a few +10s to resupply tanks. Limited ammo on tanks turns them into heavies with no other units on the field to throw them a nanohive. |

LAVs are weak. Too weak to be behind a tank while it goes into battle against AV spec'd players and other tanks. |

Too weak to be behind a tank while it goes into battle against AV spec'd players and other tanks. You don't keep the LAV around the HAV. In Planetside 2, I use a Sunderer with speed upgrades and Ammo Resupply racks. When I see a group of tanks, I drive up to them, drive through them to resupply them, and then fall back where I can't be shot.
But what does the LLAV do while it's not with the tank? Hide? This is why I say no one will spec into them, from what I remember, LLAVs have a .5 damage modifier, so they can't go off and be useful battle units while they wait for the HAV to request more ammo.
All they could do is sit in a corner twiddling their thumbs, or stay behind the tank with a shield transporter/armor repper and get blown to smithereens by an intelligent AV user. |

I'm confused as to what your point is now. I thought we were talking about LLAVs, if you are saying those should replace LLAVs when we get them, you should know just as well as I do what CCP's SOONGäó tactics are, LLAVs are all we will have for the next year at the least. |
