Hah!

OP says everything is great and we shouldn't call for nerfs.

Then OP calls for a nerf on LAVs.

He talks about other people's attitude and then unilaterally declares what the proper use of a LAV is, as if any other use s somehow "wrong" in a way that violates the sanctity of the game.

I'm not calling for a nerf, I'm just telling you to stop doing it, and admit it, you're just being deliberately obtuse, this is a total frustrating game killer. Because there's literally nothing you can do to stop it, they're going too fast for AV grenades, and by the time someones swapped over to Swarm Launchers/AA Classes, they've already gotten a good few skulls under their bonnet.

See #3.

It's called a Cavalry Charge, and it's a time honored tactic. You may not like it, but that's no reason to ban it.
It's not like armies have never ridden down their foes before.

Telling people not to use the cavalry charge is as elitist and pointless as telling everyone that the TAC AR is OP and nobody should use it. CCP loves it when people find new ways to use assets that they have placed in the game. If they don't want anyone killed by anything other than "approved" weapons, then they can do something about it.

Meanwhile don't stand out in the open or play in the street. If you hear a LAV and don't see it in front of you check your scanner. If there isn't a blue diamond there, you have an enemy LAV behind you, so take cover. Don't stand there and look around, dive for cover. Situational awareness is all it takes.

I'm completely well aware how to check radar, how to listen for LAV's the problem is they are too damned fast to do anything about, and if you dodge one, the next one will get you anyway. I'm not asking for it to be nerfed, I'm simply putting it out there, that it's bloody annoying.

I'm not asking for it to be nerfed, I'm simply putting it out there, that it's bloody annoying. Some people don't think to look both ways before they cross the street, so I had to put that out there for them. I'd suggest that you are too far from cover if there is nothing you feel you can do once you hear a LAV. I need a good chunk of flat open ground to get up to a fast enough speed that leaves so little reaction time. I've had to give up and try for other targets when my enemy does a decent job of evasion. And yes, I'll concede the point that it is annoying. Getting killed by any weapon, especially one you don't use yourself is pretty annoying. Being OB'ed is annoying too, but at least you can do something about being run down.
