Seriously the most fun in this game is running people over. The game has become stale for me. In most games I try to stay away from the metagame weapons, while being very good at using things that most people don't use. Last build was the LR and dropships (the meta was high sharpshooter ARs).
In Uprising, both of these suck. Dropships are left in the forgotten by CCP, and the laser doesn't have range anymore. The AR continues to dominate the metagame, but this time there's really no reason to NOT choose the TAC AR. Then the weapon I saved all my SP and had high hopes sucks as well, the SR. I'm sad that the crappy and lame Gallente AR is superior to this gun in every aspect, in both of its variants.
So LAVs. Could get around 2000 HP for surviving AV grenades and swarms. Not need to worry about forge guns (unlike dropships lol what a joke). Last day I ran over a red blob and killed like 4 guys. I was laughing so hard and it was so satisfying. So I'm go LAVs till CCP fixes the damn gun game. I suggest you do the same if you get bored.

No joke. They have become quite a bit more challenging and here I thought the speed buff was serious news. In an odd way the usefulness of my assault forge went up with the number of people who traded their rifle for driving gloves, now with the buff less so.
This may be the new normal at least for this game build and six or so months. |

Tried calling in an HAV once and it said that the vehicle limit had been reached.
Upon opening the map I saw not one, not two, but -SIX- LAVs just driving around.
I've seriously about had it with these Starter LAVs and I'm well on my way to losing patience with this game. 60% buff to HP of a vehicle that costs no SP/ISK to use and everyone gets one - making even some Advanced AV options useless against them.
Sad day when you have to go Proto Forgegun to one-shot a starter LAV. |

I've being farming LAVs lately. Now I know why. Thanks for giving me targets for my AV nades.
The most satisfying thing ever is to blow up 2 LAVs with 3 people each with AV nades on the ground.

I just watched a squad mate kill 2 guys on the bridge objective of a Skirmish match by running them over then secure the objective and drive off. Hillarity then ensued.
Wyrm also I dont think you are using the scrambler right if you think it sucks so bad...... its actually a fantastic gun, well balanced. |

In the week-long waiting period after the respec but before the new weapons came out, I was just running around with a militia swarm and a scrambler pistol and doing quite well for myself. With the new hp buff, that might not be too possible, but at least I've got the new weapons to fool around with instead.

I have to say that I don't think the answer to the free LAVs should be millions of sp invested into AV. |

I was talking about how to counter the people who actually INVESTED in LAVs, not the free ones.
I can one-shot most free LAVs with a single damage mod on a Militia Swarm Launcher.
Not seeing the problem here. |

Anh, your calculations are a little off. Here let me fix that for you:
Adv Caldari logi LAV: 3,463.65 eHP shield
Proto swarm with two damage mods: 2,350.26 HP
Swarm Vs. shield drops damage output to 70%: 1,645.182 HP
Two blasts before you can even get close two my armor.
Forge guns sure do hurt though. |

they need to take out the infinite balach if someone wants an infinite vehicle let them cough up some real cash and donate to dust 514 . no one should be able to be a vehicle user without sp and isk unless the bpo is an aur bought item |

That's what I am waiting for.
This is a result of the better driving mechanics coupled with giving players a better way to control them. Allowing us to use the triggers for gas/reverse made all the difference in the world as far as making the m controllable.
And now I have an Ishkune Saga parked in my WARage next to my Gurista. I was considering buying a blood raider... hmmm.
Pro TIp- It's all about the turret, a good gunner, and dam mods with a balance of speed. I drive, run people over. My buddy and I take out dropships, tanks, and turrets all day. fun =D
One of my favorite past times is pulling up behind snipers and gunning it from about ten feet away knocking them down the mountain as I roll over them and kill them. Oh yea= roll killing people > than just running them over. I even did a cartwheel kill. You can't go full LAV unless you roll kill someone. |
