The inertia for driverless LAVs was toned way down in Uprising, from what I can tell. It used to be possible to drive full speed at a teammate, jump out a few feet from them, and have the LAV kill them because when unoccupied it wasn't "blue" in regards to teamkilling. Had some bastard do this to me once, and I spent the next ten minutes chasing him into my own LAV until I got him back. As far as I know, this is no longer a thing.

Back when LAVs didn't insta-vanish upon destruction, you could have destroyed LAVs run you down even after you killed them. Happened to me as a forgegunner back in Chromosome. Forged the LAV 5 meters from me, killing it, and it still slid forward and ran me over.

Also, sorry Azura Sakura, lol, but when I hit "reply," your original post was the last one on the thread, and this computer at work is so slow that you can see how long it took for me to be able to reply.

Cat Merc Oculus Felis 1277	Posted - 2013.06.30 00:22:00 - [1] - Quote I kept track of the reasons of death for 130 matches. I died a total of 205 times. It is as follows: 6% Spawn deaths 27% LLAV's 23% Free LAV's 15% Flaylock's 11% Assault rifles 11% Snipers 2% mysterious deaths (Deaths that I have no explanation towards, just died out of nowhere) + RDV's 5% other (Every other possible cause of death) This is rounded up to make nice numbers. Pie chart using accurate numbers coming Soon(TM)

KING CHECKMATE A.N.O.N.Y.M.O.U.S. 136	Posted - 2013.06.30 00:33:00 - [10] - Quote ''27% LLAV's 23% Free LAV's'' I think this pretty much explains 80% of my deaths. Thought i was playing a FPS tuns out this game is Carmagedon 2.0 .... Nerf those LAV....they are driving me insane. On another note, COMMANDO dropsuits hopefully will reduce the usage of LAV's since running around with an AR and a Swarm launcher is now an option.

Azura Sakura wrote: Do yo run proto? Anyways, 50% of deaths caused by getting run over. I'm glad that they're maybe only abotu 15% of my deaths. However, I guess it's still a comment on the state of the game because there are enough LAVs driving around for you to die 100 times to them in 130 matches, though that's only 1.3 deaths per match to LAVs.

Maybe that is the reason why you were killed by so many LAVs. I would always run over the high geared players if I were to murder taxi.

Some matches have maps where LAV's don't pose a problem. Others I see 6 LLAV's running around. So it's more than 1.3 per match.

Poplo Furuya Crux Special Tasks Group Gallente Federation 106	Posted - 2013.06.30 00:51:00 - [26] - Quote I don't think I've even had an LAV death in about a month. I really can't remember the last time. Then again my main occupation is Forge Guns. Getting a read on their movement patterns and the general behaviour of the drivers is a large part of being able to make longer shots at more awkward angles. That insight no doubt helps in their avoidance outside of a heavy suit, too. Had a near thing one game where I baited an LLAV that was being a tricky customer into running me down. Shot the driver out at the last moment with a Breach Scrambler headshot then made an ungainly dive out of the derelict vehicle's path. Was surprised it even worked. Good round, I enjoyed his ride. Even ran him down with it once. Charybdis with whatever modules he had on it, disregards Swarm Launchers, acquires roadkills. Crazy stuff. Had a tearful parting as I left it parked behind the enemy redline a minute before the match's end.
