When the maps are expanded and/or larger maps are brought in this won't be much of a problem.

You know the scenario, see LAV-lamer coming, duck into cover between crates half the width of the LAV but he just rams into the slot and squeezes through like something out of a Mickey Mouse cartoon, touches you with 1mm of his bumper and you die. So even when you think you've been clever and avoided him he can just cheese through the terrain.

You can even kill people in those little ground level troop bunkers, just ram hard enough and your LAV model will intrude far enough to touch them. No escape.

Actually, I'm rather horrified at how sensitive LAVs react to the terrain. I hit a pebble and I do a front-flip.

I don't try to run people over but if someone is in my way they get squished. Is it productive? No. Does it contribute to the team? No. But it beats sitting in the MCC like a lemon.

I am carrying proto AV with me but still, this is an awful experience playing this game when 3 LAV's run around the map >_> Kill them, more spawn, kill them, more spawn. Ironically, it's the exact opposite for me. The most fun I have is running around in a LAV or running AV. If they took away free LAVs right now, I'd probably spec into LLAVs. I'd actually like to try and run them as actual support too, but I hear that's buggy and frustrating and not even worth trying right now. I made the mistake early on of choosing a logi/pilot role running a Mass Driver. Injectors don't work, derpships are a joke and the MD has been nerfed to hell and back not to mention currently bugged. If you aren't running a golden-child AR build, you are at a disadvantage. How much do you want to bet that the Flaylock will be nerfed to oblivion in the next patch? Anytime a weapon gets hit by the nerf-bat, they blast it into obscurity... except for the TAR fiasco. Oh no, they have to be careful on that one and just tweak it a little and see how it goes. Wouldn't want to alienate the AR crowd. This game is advertised as having all these varied weapon types, roles, vehicles, etc... but the second people try break out of the the Assault-AR or Heavy-HMG role, they either hit bugs... are near worthless on the field... or AR gunrunners complain to high hell about not being the king of the battlefield. When was the last time you died to a shotgun? I think I've been killed by one 3... maybe 4 times since the 1.1 patch. What about lasers? People actually literally laugh when they see them on the field now. Maybe 1.2 will fix things. We shall see.

You saw that guy saying how the free LAVs were essential to keeping people playing the game, right?

I find it funny when I get hit by 8 swarm launchers and I escape with a few scratches. Although not sure what proto will do to me.. usually do not encounter many players with proto swarms or forge guns in pubs.

You know how fast an LAV closes in that 1/3 of a radar, no because its too fast to really notice. The massively gimped radar in uprising has majorly contributed to the LAV spam.

I have lost count of the number of times I have been pushed out of cover out into the open and got killed. Please stay in the MCC and AFK if all you are capable of is to troll your own teammates. I have a made a AV dropsuit whose only purpose is to destroy LAVs.

All he is doing to destroying LAVs and he is actually making a nice profit. I leave the dropships alone unless they start shooting at me, it is only the LAVs that have made me mad. Interesting that a game can affect me such and make me spend time chasing LAVs with an alt. One hit from my swarm and the starter LAV blows up.
