I'll take it. The game before, I hit a guy and did 2-3 barrel rolls and spun on my nose like a top. Sadly, I wasn't recording.

Yes, you can. I got stuck on a rock/crate/structure earlier and got shot out by a scrambler rifle. No damage to my LAV.

I got peppered by an LAV turret and other small arms, but that last guy was the only one with AV anything. I think that's the problem. People don't want to have to switch to non-infantry-effective gear to deal with vehicles.

I like where LAV's are at just need to replace the free one with the bike that was rummored I think over 90% of the people who go LAV Smashing use free LAVs. I know that's all I've ever used. That's where the issue comes in. People complaining about things being OP when in reality, they can easily counter them. It takes one person with a Forge Gun/Swarm Launcher/AV Nade to take them out and whoever's in it with it. I understand that GOOD LAVs are strong, but they're not exactly cheap. They should take a beating from AV nades, small arms fire, etc. They're upgraded and beefed up a little bit. The person skilled into the LAVs and pay a solid chunk of change per LAV. They should be durable. I'll never understand why people complain about ticky tack stuff and then wonder why the game is shifting towards an all AR battlefield.

Could not have planned it better, also loving the new physics engine when it lines up crap like that. My first LAV kill was while I was barrel rolling down a hill. I wasn't recording then. I like the new physics, but it does need tweaking. They're extremely top heavy and roll quick. Before we slid, now we roll. The control changes help that a TON though. I still think adding R2/L2 controls to LAVs was one of my top 5 additions to the game.

I like where LAV's are at just need to replace the free one with the bike that was rummored AV nades dont work on DS ( unless they are touching the ground and unmanned ) Pretty much agree on everything else tho, and AV nades are less effective against Shields so people with AV nade problems just need to run more Shields He said DS because of my name. I don't think he meant dropship.

Now, I'll tell anyone who can't shoot to spec into LAVs if you'd still like to be effective. To be honest, I have a lot more fun in LAVs than I do in my heavy suit. 1) I don't lose any ISK and 2) it's gratifying taking out a Proto DTAR user from behind.

DS 10 G I A N T EoN. 284	Posted - 2013.05.17 12:04:00 - [11] - Quote Sparrow Darkly wrote: Why are most of you guys saying this is funny? Seriously, I'm here to play a FPS but it's become a giant joke. I always run with AV nades but all the ground vehicles have much more HP now so I'm that much more useless. If the impact damage was removed, it would allow the LAV to be used for what it was meant for and infantry could focus on shooting while playing their shooter game.. I guess since it's a First Person SHOOTER, remote explosives, grenades, nova knives, and proximity mines should all be taken out as well. All it took was one person using AV to stop the massacre. This game is about strategy and adapting to your opponent. If you see an LAV doing laps, it's even easier to take them out. I pretty much gift wrapped a kill for someone. LAV impact damage was already nerfed. I've gotten numerous assists after bumping guys. Up your awareness, get into an AV fit, and stop whining about something that has been part of every FPS with vehicles I've ever played.

I will agree with that... although you CAN shoot the driver it is very hard. I have been killed while driving an LAV a few times... always while not moving more than 1 mph. I shot the driver out of an LAV when I was on a blaster installation. The LAV was at the Max range for the blaster installation. I was trying to blow the whole thing up, but only shot the driver...the shields recharged faster than I could do damage to the LAV at that range. I love getting random blaster/railgun/forge gun kills when I'm trying to take out supply depots/CRUs.
