How about not running solo? ******* joker. And did you say a Heavy with Swarm? Jesus Christ dafuq is wrong with you?

Can't tell if srs or trollin' :(

To be fair going heavy to be anti vehicle makes more sense than using squisher suits.

As a tanker I actually agree, I'm wary of swarms when I see them but unless theres a few I don't panic (unless theres lik 3-5 guys all aiming for me) Considering you need to specc into swarm launchers as a weapon choice they perform poorly when compared to AV grenades.

This is a mechanic that was intended .

1 swarm launcher is worrying if they get into a good position and set up an av nest and they can denie you acces to vital areas of the map whare your infantry needs support.

2 swarms working with each other can make me retreat to the red line .

3 or more swarmers that are working together can destroy my tank .

If you throw in a forge gun with any of the above you will get me on edge and if you push me hard enough I might make a mistake and you will have the upper hand. Also with the 6 man squads it is now verry easy to get that OB and when you do time that drop allong with some av my tank is pretty much toast. It is supposed to be a teameffort to break me(I dont mean the whole team but at least 2-4 mercs working as a unit) ps 1 proto forge in a good position =dead tank. At the moment most peaople have specked for anti infantry but in time we WILL see more and more av fits coming on to the field as people max out their anti infantry wepons. Happy hunting.

Im finding this "find another one of you " logic pretty faulty.. and Ive seen this excuse for heavies and MD's lol.. so its really not valid.. How many people in a pub match have fully speccd AV gear? And then they would need a mic.. and then .. you get the point.. chances are slim to NONE..

Everyone plays their own role and expects to get kills by themself.. this whole run in a mob mentality is like the New Eden socialism.. and homey dont play that.. Its a nice thought if you are in a high level clan battle and it was planned that way.. then you have a valid point..
But the vast majority of us the majority of the time will be ALONE.. maybe 4 mics on a team if its a good day.. doesnt leave a lot of room for Having double maxed out AV trees..

IMO another prime example of nerf wars gone wild..

Well I had a heavy.. Saw the writing on the wall speccd fully into Swarm launchers w/ proficiency etc.. full tree

I really cant kill a dropship or tank for the life of me anymore..

Just spent an entire match following 2 dropships around.. With all shots connecting before he can run.. went through all my clip.. reloaded.. kept chasing him landing every shot.. Soon depeted all my ammo.. droppd nano. reload.. STILL he wont drop..
Literally went through all the Nano reserves.. still couldnt kill one guy.. I know he was shielded etc, thats not the point a guy who fully specs into an Anti Vehicle weapon expects to kill a vehicle at some point..

Is this how you intended a Maxed out Swarm launcher to perform? In the meantime im dying left and right from a steady onslaught of AR's... game has lost that loving feeling..

Would appreciate this weapon be looked at as well.. this is just WRONG.

Especially given the flavour text of the suit...

Notice that he said he was a heavy but he had nano hives so I think this guy is a big joke that wants to just kill Tanks with a militia swarm launchers.

Swarms are fine. You should try not running solo, and also not trying to take down a dropship when there are more pressing concerns such as infantry.
You probably kept that DS from doing anything the pilot wanted to do effectively. Plus; if I spent the entire match trying to take down 1 enemy, they could probably lead me on a wild goose chase too, regardless of them being in a vehicle or on foot. That would not be a good reason to say the weapon I used in the effort was UP.

Skilled into swarms, but I was on the wrong side of a pubstomp where the other team had a Gunnlogi and a Myron bombarding us. I didn't want to throw away good suits, so I brought my modded Starter Fit. Drops a damage mod for a Shield Extender so I don't die to HMG fire (anything else will still kill me), brought an Armour Repairer and my own Nanohive.

Had a friendly Logi spitting out Nanohives faster than I could use them.

I soloed the Gunnlogi AND the Myron. Took a while, and the Myron was a harder kill than the Gunnlogi (because it could actually outrun the missiles), but every time it came in, I hit it HARD and FAST. It retreated and recovered its shields, but each time I cracked them, I chipped away a little more armour. Then I managed to arc one shot away from the Dropship while another went on a more direct line, the two volleys hit almost simultaneously as it was about to start running again. BOOM.

I've got a dropship and I'm ineffective without other players in it: I need to work in a group setting to be useful. Why should just one of you get to take out my ship which now costs over a million ISK?

Well for 1 because I SPent 6 mill SP's to spec fully into AN ANTI FRICKN VEHICLE BUILD... thats why..

And you really think there are 2 fully speccd Swarms in ANY pub match on same team? WITH MICS? ya... faulty logic.. It should take 1 clip with the Swarm AT MOST to take down the most heavily shielded Dropship... PERIOD

See I disagree. If you have joined Dust to just play solo you are missing the point. It's still a valid play style, but you don't play Dust for the Pub matches. There are plenty of other more appropriate shooters for lone wolves. Dust has always focused on player Corps because its mission statement is to bring players together in organised and cohesive units.

Join a Corp or meet people in team chat and get organised so AV attacks are coordinated and effective. BF3 did that a bit with Javelins and SOFLAM. Dust is about taking that organisation to another level.
