BPO LAVs need to go. its getting ******* ridiculous.
if we're going to have free LAVs zig zagging around the map on a vehicular homicide high then maybe consider nerfing their armor back to chromosome level or unnerfing AV grenades |

I think whoever they run over should do however many hit points their suit has as damage to the lav. That would make sense. Then if they hit two people they would die too. |

BTW Buster, how do RE's help. I move, the LAV moves, remote explosives do not. What's the strategy you use with these?
1) I am insulted and humored that you think I'm a third grader who can't shoot because I ran you over. That's your excuse because You died to an LAV? If you died to a militia assault rifle do you think they're a 4th grader who is just spraying and praying?
2) Proximity mines, and Av grenades. My Av grenades have no problem taking out a free LAV in two shots. |

I was sarcastically quoting the OP. I don't want those things. But tip for everyone...the key to dodging a LAV is to actually run toward it, then 'juke' it by faking left then going right, or faking right then going left, but sometimes they start to learn so sometimes you fake left then go straight, then when it gets really tricky you fake left then go left. |

It's a thought - it's what goes through my mind given the abundance of free, buff LAV's in this build, and their frequent use as murder taxi's.
The prox mines and AV nades I understand.... it's the RE's I don't get.

LAVs are still super annoying even if you can take them out. Telling folks to spec AV is silly. So I need to bring in AV to deal with someone riding a free vehical and gimp myself against infantry?
The LAV fix is easy, fix the radar so it can see further than 2 inches, and then folks will actually have a decent warning of crappy players in LAVs and they will be able to dodge. That, or nerf the free LAV so it dies in 1 militia swarm again.
Dodging/fighting LAVs isnt fun. Its not a matter of balance, its a matter of a fun game or a ****** game. If I want to play frogger, ill go play frogger. |

Free LAVs die fairly easily, it's my tricked out Guista LAV that can tank two EXO nades and turn you into road kill.
But guess what? Only the cassis is BPO, the modules to give it that ability run 92k ISK so there is plenty of risk to go with the reward.
I started playing Death Race 514 because all my points are locked up in now completely useless dropships, but I discovered that it's far more challenging and rewarding than spamming blaster fire. It's got the majesty of a bullfight with the matador attempting to dodge and leap over the bull as he tosses grenades to kill it. Meanwhile the driver has to anticipate his targets actions and plan counters. It's a deadly game of cat and mouse that requires skill on both sides.
Yes you can get blind sided by the bull, but the same is true about gunfire. In fact it's more difficult to surprise a target while running a LAV because they can hear you coming and prepare.
Give it a try yourself and I'm sure you will agree. |

I'm guilty of this but in my defense its not a "free" LAV and I've put a fair amount of sp in the shields , recharge , damage reduction modules etc. Best advice don't go toe to toe with an LAV whose shields you haven't tested first. Someone suggested earlier in a post reply that an amount of damage be done to the LAV when it hits someone ... even as an LAV driver whom this wouldn't benefit i gotta say i like the idea it has merit ... a petition perhaps  |

It's ok if you run someone over but not if someone runs you over? You can hear LAV's from far away, basically the only tip to give you, and map. Any other times you die, just live with it, you aren't always going to survive a LAV. Why aren't some of you not even talking about headshots from snipers and forge gunners? They kill you in one shot, just like the LAV when they run you over.
Adapt or die.

2. spec into Remotes
3. spec into MD
4. spec into Forge Gun
5 . spec into Swarms
6. just grab a jeep and have a head on collision
7. join his squad and bump him with your tank
8. stand by a cliff and play "matador"
9. Spec into tanks
10. spec into dropships
11 spec into sniper
12. spec into turrets
13. GET IN a turret
14. I dunno shoot the driver out?
13. SPEC INTO ANYTHING THAT DOESNT HAVE AR in the name.. douchbag

This is funny yes there is a lot of open road. Yes free LAVs can get tough. The truth still stands unless u get blind sided you still really shouldn't die to an LAV roadkill in the wide open with glue on your shoe.
You can hear them a mile away get there direction and use any form of terrian against them. I wish I had a count of the LAVs I have gone under.
Also to those who say I should have to get AV to deal with them. Yes it is a counter to them you must spec into counters unless its a militia in which militias fine. If you see adv in the tacnet then you will need adv gear or a lot if standard hits. Would you need to spec to counter something else yes so why not BPO LAVs.

It's not that people are actually doing this that bugs me. It's that a few people start doing it then next thing you know, everybody is doing it. And the vast majority of them are failing at it.
Just today I watched an LAV.with all seats filled from my team chase a red scout around for nearly 3 minutes. The worst part wastthat they didn't even kill him. It was some other guy who had just spawned nearby.
Maybe they were just toying with him, maybe they just suck. But it was a close game and the rest of our team would have been better served by them jumping out and shooting. Save that stupidity for when you're up big or about to lose anyway.

Nerfing LAVs is unrealistic, it would be like making it an over-sized cardboard box that would break instantly. Getting run over is a nature part of combat. But what about everything else like guns, HAVs, Dropships, etc? Those things kill too. Just because LAVs are free and easy to summon doesn't mean it's a bad thing. They're fun and yes, I admit it is fun to run over people when the situation arises. But I'm sure if a lot of whining continues on the LAVs and CCP decides to charge us for the LAVs, then it would become even worse with long threads of complaints. Grow a pair, shut your mouth, and be happy that the LAVs are free. |

Honestly since the buff the LAVs are more dangerous than HAVs in my opinion. They speed and maneuverability make them very difficult to pin down if that LAV driver has half a brain. |

Unless you launch it off a cliff into another LAV it will never work.
The splash damage range of a "blue" LAV is larger then any grenade, any turret, or any Forge gun in the game....and for some reason jumping out always slams on the breaks. |

They're nice target practice honestly, although if i'm not in AV gear it is frustrating.

Funny how a lot of the people that are complaining about LAVs are the same people that tell anyone that complains to HTFU |

Whether it is Swarm or Forge if you're not at least putting in close to a million SP then give it up and follow the AV grenade advice.
I was actually in a match the other day against a bunch of guys spawning LAV's [pretty sure they were free, but can't be sure] and just constantly running us down in them. Switched to my Militia Fatsuit fitting [it has STD AV grenades, as well], and I'm pretty sure I took out at least two or three LAV's. They definitely take a hell of a lot more punishment now, for sure; it takes two STD AV nades to kill the free LAV, but they still fall pretty quickly if you know what you're doing.
And as far as I'm concerned, everyone should have a Militia fatsuit with a Forge Gun, no matter what they spec into. Because the minute a team starts calling in waves of vehicles like that, you only need a couple guys respawning with Forge Guns to make them realise they can't just run you down, they'll have to earn their kills. Yes, it's really hard to kill with an unspecced Forge. But all it requires is you getting used to it and maybe getting covering fire from teammates. Hell, a coordinated squad with Militia Fatsuits could probably take out any vehicle they come across. |

I've dodged 3 LAVS at once, if you can't dodge 1, then you deserve to die. |

It is fun to practice LAV dodging skills, and free LAV's mean fun splosions with AV nades.  |

To be fair, I didn't think it was a bad idea to invest some SP into grenades anyway. It gives options. I like options. :) |

if we're going to have free LAVs zig zagging around the map on a vehicular homicide high then maybe consider nerfing their armor back to chromosome level or unnerfing AV grenades
Get rid of them for all I care. I use a tanked Methana. Only lost three total, not too expensive. Still running people over with it, frequently. Jump in the gun sometimes too when they try to hide from my bumper. With an active scanner, it also makes for an excellent fast reconnaissance unit.
As for the freebies... like I said, get rid of them for all I care. But what are the new players left with? The ones that have yet to skill into anything? Four starter fits that more advanced players with HAVs and Logi LAVs can run down? Sorry, doesn't make sense to me. Let them have their free LAVs so they at least have a quick getaway vehicle handy. As for vets using them for the purpose you're complaining about, you are going to have to... wait for it...
"Adapt or die".
Because, to be honest, if they get rid of the free ones, we're still gonna use Methanas and the like, and they have better tanks and are harder to destroy, and we will use them for the same thing. Over and over and over until you learn how to jump out the way and pack AV. I killed seven starter LAVs in one match today with a Militia swarm launcher from a position with a nanohive. Don't even need AV grenades. My Methana? It takes a grand total of FIVE militia swarm rounds to kill, and that's on a passive tank.
So remove the free LAVs. Then suddenly, the murder taxis being used will be even harder to kill, and you will have to... wait for it...
