This is just complete idiocy. Sound bugs, RADAR bugs, and the sheer number of mongoloid lav drivers are justification enough. Not to mention the ridiculous EHP that LLAVs currently have.
Regardless, the LAV problem is just another example of how Dust is such a poor shooter. When it's more efficient to run people over than it is to shoot them, your game is trash.

Regardless, the LAV problem is just another example of how Dust is such a poor shooter. When it's more efficient to run people over than it is to shoot them, your game is trash. It's still a valid tactic. Just like sniping from the MCC, or tank sniping from the hills, it's still a valid tactic. Wouldn't you run over your enemy if he just so happen to be standing in front of you?
Please tell me you realize every comparison you just made illustrates the depth of Dust's garbage game play...
There aren't legions of blueberries just standing in the open for entire fights. LAV drivers are purposely driving around to mow others down. When you see LLAVs climbing stairs, hills and ramps to get at people, you realize that the "people just standing there" argument is full of crap. If you had to hit someone at full speed to kill them you might have a point, but the current mechanics are a joke and encourage murdertaxi. |

Some tactics I don't like, but in the context of New Eden, any tactic is a valid tactic no matter how lame it is. I don't see too many folks complaining about me bring a knife to a gunfight so why should I complain about folks bringing a murder taxi to the same fight? Be glad that dropships are no longer literally living up to their name.
In Eve Online, there was a player that took down a Megathron with just an Iteron V all by himself and no one complained about that. Plenty of people complained about mining ships bring mercilessly ganked, but everyone else didn't mind it because we all know that anything goes in New Eden.
Things change in New Eden all the time. EVE is a sandbox, Dust in it's current state, is not. And btw, mining barges and exhumers received a buff, just saying.
Explain to me how dropship and tank spam needed to be eliminated, but LAV spam is valid? |

Explain to me how dropship and tank spam needed to be eliminated, but LAV spam is valid? Lol @ buffed mining ships I still see them getting ganked and destroyed on a daily basis. The buff stopped no one and the goons kept on burning Jita. As for the second part, I didn't say they needed to be eliminated. Considering how whiney you are about LAVs running people over, I felt now was the time to bring up the fact that you would be rage quitting if tank spamming and dropship derping weren't changed. I didn't mind getting crushed to be honest. I guess I'm a masochist. By the way, you're talking to a dedicated Eve player who gets a kick out of seeing pure mayhem.
Bringing up glaring faults in Dust's gameplay is not whining. The fact that you are having to bring up previous iterations with equally bad gameplay mechanics shows just how shallow Dust really is.
And you're not a masochist, you're not a "hardcore" EVE player, you're an idiot. You know full well that the tank and dropship spam detracted heavily from what little gun game existed during the BETA. In a supposedly "AAA" shooter, running people over should not be more efficient that actually shooting. If you like getting constantly run over or squished then by all means do so, but don't try and act like Murdertaxi improves the chances of Dust's survivability.
BTW, I'm also an EVE player, and the reason you still see mining ships on EVE-kill is because greedy AFK miners fit CPU rigs so they can cram more laser yield upgrades in the lows instead of a DCII and shield rigs. And no one cares about Goons killing AFK autopiloting haulers except hisec publords and the Goons themselves. But please continue to regale me with your EVE experience that has nothing to do with the topic at hand. |
