So how many free ways to take out a jeep do you need? It only takes 1 shot to down them....

Its clear they gave the jeeps a lil something extra to resist small arms fire.. ie: AR's

Its not a very useful tool on the field if 3 expensive suits jump into a jeep then die at the hands of some nerf happy AR, while on the way to deploy at a base..

And since you speccd into a plasma cannon , i would think it would make sense that you wouldnt want every AR on the field taking out your targets? assuming your gun worked which is a totally different topic...

Whos side are you ON?

What? 1 shot? No. Not after the buff.

And what are you rambling about AR's?

Free LAV's should not have that much HP. period.

As said, if you put SP in your LAV's then they should be more resistant but not free ones.

You mad bra???

Shady"S tasty IceCream Truck gets splattered with just 1 starter swarm EVERY time.. so keep telilng lies to the public AR BOI

Plasma Cannon is DOA and now it's going to take 2+ Standard Swarm Launcher volleys to take out even the most rudimentary (militia) LAVs This wouldn't be a problem IF THEY WEREN'T ****ING FREE!

Hell, now it's easier to just shoot them out of the damned things than it is to try and kill the LAV in the first place. I mean, FFS a Prototype Swarm Launcher does 1,800 damage and it -still- couldn't kill these things without some damage mods attached. Even then, it -COSTS EXTENSIVE AMOUNTS OF SP/ISK- where as the Starter LAV costs -NOTHING-

The swarms are free.. but I guess youd have to lay down that AR for one second? lols TOO BAD Just saying.. Maybe you should BUY a FREE Swarm launcher/ Plasma launcher/ Forge Gun.. or damn i guess you could actually spec grenades if you want your EZ button back? You know some of us actually spend points on this stuff, even though we could easily go full AR and get 40 kills a game and be your daddy... Now theres 1 gun that cant down a jeep right away.. AN AR.. and listen to all this :(.. PATHETIC I think you mad that AR's cant take down a jeep anymore? cry moar.. see if you can nerf this game into the ground, Id say 1 or 2 more stealth nerfs outta just do it... Or possibly you should stop your nerf threads, that cause these game ending imbalances to occur in the first place??? ...and maybe People like this ShadyIcecreamTruck guy wont feel the need to drive over you? A.) Troll harder. B.) Only the Swarm Launcher is free and even then it's a starter weapon. C.) This thread was made in response to the 60% increase to the starter LAV HP. D.) I use the Plasma Cannon, it's worthless against anything besides Infantry.

Whos side are you ON?[/quote] You're definitely too high to play this game, that much if for sure, but I'll go ahead and explain something real fast: Have you -SEEN- the starter LAVs HP values? 1580 armor and 410 shields on mine. That's absolute bullshit. A militia Swarm Launcher does 1,200 damage and that's -IF- all of the missiles hit. So now that your logi has been defeated, I'll defeat your next argument: Assault Rifles do 10% (last I checked) efficiency to vehicles. That means that out of the 78 damage a Duvolle Tactical puts out, each bullet only does 7.8 damage. Meaning that if all 30 rounds are fired, you're dishing out 234 damage total. Not nearly enough to even get through it's shields. Now, shooting a player out of an LAV is a completely different story but I'll point out two things: A.) It's insanely difficult B.) It's not what this topic is about. Go home Dust Merc. You're drunk.

I can tell you from personal exp. that 1 swarm launcher can and almost always DOES take out a starter jeep.. Maybe the numbers arent telling the whole story.. If you played the game you would know this.. I have used both and I have used the Swarm Launcher very recently up until the Plasma Cannon came out. So, let's do the math since you're obviously deficient at actually looking up the information to verify it yourself. Standard Swarm Launcher Damage: 330 x 4 = 1,320 (assuming all missiles hit) Starter LAV (Baloch) Armor/Shield = 1520+416 = 1,936 1,936 - 1,320 = 616 Math is right there for you dude. It doesn't get much more simple than that.
