By "some things" you wouldn't happen to mean hit and runs would you? Actually... no. I'm not sure how popular it'd be here but in Warhawk there'd be the occasional sponsored race where players would hop into the ubiquitous warhawks and fly around the map in laps. Recently I've seen people doing this with LAVs in Ambushes. A squad of LAVs just driving around the map in predictable patterns you could orbital on. No need for a turret there, I'd think. |

Supporting the opinion of no more free LAV's in game anymore. What is the point really.? Having them just reduces incentive to Skill into them anyway. Make it a viable vocation to be an LAV driver...with purpose. Other than some scrub who just wants to run around and taking people out with what is arguably the cheapest one hit kill weapon in the game that doesn't cost a single ISK.
Militia LAV's are in the Market. Let players start paying for them. Between those and all the BPO LAV's out there I doubt they will just "disappear" from the battlefield..
Militia LAV......too much reward with ZERO risk. Sounds out of place to me. |

btw, 1st rule on ground , Look left and right and you be fine , always armed with AV nades lav drivers look out for forge gun , av nades, tankers so there is a risk too for drivers ,

We're these goddamned armored suits that can withstand two sniper bullets at the very least, but can't handle ONE hit by a vehicle going CONSIDERABLY SLOWER.
Doesn't make sense at all. Someone at CCP isn't doing their math. |

This isn't an isolated scenario as pretty much any LAV that is in motion I have this issue with. I'm not complaining about the HP buff, increased survivability or anything, just the fact that 2k+ dmg on a direct hit and it doesn't affect the health bar of the target. and yes im sure there is a nice contingent that enjoys 'running me over' and just killing me in general. I don't think you can grasp the amount of mails I get when someone kills me.. they often feel inclined to inform me lol. I understand that and am fine with it, I just want this issue addressed. At distance all LAVs teleport... no smooth framerate at all
Yah unfortunately ccp cant figure out basic stuff like framerate or hit detection I agree. But damn did they fix me going behind the score board....game changer I know! |

You people are dumb, they shouldn't remove free LAVs because there's going to be STD BPOs. So you're all saying it's okay if you spam zero risk LAVS as long as you pay for the ability to spam them indefinitely right? Your "no risk" argument goes out the window the instant you bring BPOs into this.
They will never remove the free starter vehicle, they might change it, but not remove it. Get over it. |

I have fun running people over (or at least trying to, I'm a terrible driver), and I have fun dodging vehicles. In my Dragonfly with KC, I can jump right over a LAV and had a 2-minute "dodge war" with an LAV a few days ago that was fun. :)
I have just one complaint with the carmageddon mechanic... I can try to jump out of the way, spin round to see the LAV below me and impact where my foot is at 30mph. Currently this is an instant kill.
Much of the QQing could be reduced by scaling the damage based on how the victim is evading. If jumping then the damage should be scaled depending how far off the ground the player is. If on the ground, the victim should be paste (except maybe well-tanked heavies), but if actively evading then the evasion should be rewarded with reduced damage based on the level of success (ie. the height of the jump at the time of impact).
If a victim is dumb enough to ignore the engine sound of a LAV when no friendly LAV is on the scanner then they deserve to be paste, if they are squashed into a wall they should be paste, if they evade then they should be rewarded based on the success of their evasion. They should not be insta-killed by having an LAV hit their foot at 30mph.
There is no need to nerf LAVs, please stop calling for the nerfhammer to be brought down on everything folks. If the impact mechanic is broken then that should be fixed, not some random other part of vehicle mechanics.

I don't know why you guys are crying about LAVs, they still pop like zits if you hit em' with a swarm launcher. Everyone is practically making the same mistake we did at the beginning of chrome and neglecting AV. FYI in case if you didn't know, the LAV skills are linked to the HAV and derpship ones, so they can make some pretty beefy LAVs that don't go down to AV nades that easily. If you want to kill vehicles, you better give up your light slot and spec into something to blow them up. CCP swung the nerf bat once, and last time I checked, LAVs aren't heavies, so I doubt they'll swing it again.
Edit: Not sure if proxy mines got buffed since I don't have enough SP to get them back again. |

Adding my Input as I feel bad for Tony.
LAVs seem to have been overbuffed. It's very easy for me to soak up damage in a LLAV, to the point where I'm actually more tanky than a Tank (I prefer using the LAV to assault infantry over my Gunnlogi)
Iron Wolf, I want you to squad up with me sometime, I will show you how I eat around 5 AV grenades or two forge blasts or w.e whilst continuing to run over the AVers. It's at the point now where I take about 100 damage per swarm missile (so about 400 or so).
The Free LAVs are not a massive problem, they are too strong for what they are though. I have a very simple solution, tweak the HP buffs on the LAVs slightly, work with the LLAVs resists. Remove the free fits we have. You cannot demand the Free LAV to be removed but be okay with the free AV weapons. Instead, give players one suit depending on their race, with their races Militia Assault Rifle. No module slots or equipment, meaning they can shoot but aren't useful till they work out the market system and get involved. Then remove the free LAV. It's fair.
Edit: Also CCP needs to work on hit detection, I managed to get a 4m kill using just an LAV, explain that. |

Seems like since the aiming is broken people have resorted to spamming free LAVs and driving round running people over like its Carmageddon(For the oldies) or GTA(For the younger crowd)..
Please just make it so you can survive a single hit from an LAV (tanks I can understand a OHK but they are not as fast so if you get run over its your own fault).
At least then it would give you a chance to run away or fight back cos theres nothing to stop an LAV driver driving through the middle of a gunfight and killing the enemy but teammates survive. So you think that a 2 ton vehicle should not kill a merc on foot? Lol An easy way around not being killed by lav is to check map before respawn. Don't spawn where there's lav's rushing around. Spawn with swarm launcher and go to their location and take em out. Worked for me this past year. |

Carry AV's around? As a LAV driver, we go through lots of obstacles to run you over. It is very hard to drive LAV's now since the new controls. Good LAV drivers will only stay in one area because the other areas might have turrets.
LAV's make a sound heard miles around, if your volume is up, you should hear one coming.

Why don't you go outside and try geting hit by a car - Let me know how well you survive it. And no - body armor is not designed to stop impacts by multi-ton vehicles.
You want to know how not to get run over by a LAV driver? Here's a hint - PAY ATTENTION. Most if not all collisions can be avoided by simply having a heartbeat and stepping out of the way. It's not that hard. For bonus points, combine well-thrown AV grenades with sidestepping. It's super effective!

Judging by the likes this post has got (mainly in favour of doing something about the situation) I'm not the only one concerned with how this have become mainly since Uprising and the broker shooter mechanics... And lets get this straight... My main problem is with abuse of LAV's as free kills and interrupting game flow, not smashing the nerf hammer. So pick up your pokeballs and head off... tata....
Lets try and leave real world phsyics out of a game shall we. |

This. This mentality right here is why allowing a stupid mechanic like easy LAV kills will hurt the game. These ppl like the above poster completely miss the point because they are too busy worrying about the in-game action to pay attention to the product.
I don't recall Dust being promoted as a crash up derby game. I was sold on a combat game. I want my war game back. LAV wars are getting to be far to prevalent. If you put an idiotic mechanic in the game then you attract the idiots.

Idk bout that my alt put 4mil SP into ONLY LAVs. It has 4k total hp with hardners and resistance amplifiers...its stronger then half the tanks I see these days. I can take quite a few AVs now if were talking lai dai packs idk the exact amount I might test this actually but even those hacked exo's barely scratch it even without the hardner on. Ive actually killed a few tanks 1v1 when I use my proto missles but I prefer my ion blasters . Also great for running down tanks with a group of 3 AV guys tanks just run hahah so amusing if I dare say.
Now kids using these pintos yah they suck and cant drive anyways just av them enough times and theyll give up, but when I lose 1 car every 5-10 matches why would I not keep stacking money specially when there 255k so cheap compared to tanks ( most of that is the proto turret costs) |

Haha ok kid anytime u want a firefight Id be glad to gun u down, if I want to actually take a break from pub stomping and PC and deive in my Lav on an alt character and run fools over for lawls hha dmn right I will. Doesnt mean I cant shoot please test this and find me in a match sometime. Btw my lav is more used then just running kiddies over I actually shuttle my squad from points and use it to road block engagements and funnel points because it doesnt die in 2 av so please just stop whinning and l2p before u hate on people with godly lav builds |

nope. i think we should all keep spamming them until CCP gets the idea that their system is broken. people wouldnt be using them as much if they simply fixed aiming, nerfed TAR's, and hadnt screwed with lav's by buffing their hp.
CCP's fault, let them fix it. by exploiting broken game mechanics we are sending a message that something is wrong. |

nooo dont mess with it, its great fun racing around in the LAVs , i been upgrading my LAV skills soley so i can run ppl over and kick ass with my turret, i think they should make them louder for the victims to hear and make AV grenades sticky or magnetic tht is where the real problem lies, its easy enough to hit a tank with AVs but not a LAV coming at you at Crazy MPH, dont steal my fun :( |

All kidding aside I think you missed the part that said something about paying more attention to in-game thrills than product. I really don't care how badass your thumb skills are. Forget the damn epeening and worry about the primary intention of the game as product versus your lol wagon. |
