Well the humble Transport known as the Light attack vehicle is being used as a battering ram for the Lazy and maybe even "unskilled" FPS players
Then comes the Issue of -Nowhere to run -this can be solved in many ways, adding railings, trenches and barriers that are easily traversed by foot soldiers yet impossible to get over with wheeled vehicles
__HAV's are exempt from this as tracked vehicles can climb over and crawl over obstacles at lower speeds (and you Don't see HAV's running people down__
Damage to vehicles and Infantry if you hit a 200 LB Armor clad object that is 7 FT tall and 2 1/2 FT at the shoulders at 40 Km/H that should cause significant damage to a light vehicle
-Add Ragdoll physics, upon hitting a target there should not be an instant kill, but the target should be thrown over/to the side of or run over by the vehicle and not die, but be left significantly wounded.
Now, many people think "buff AV to ""Fix"" lavs" but you will inevitably cripple the other classes of vehicles that were previously being slaughtered across the board.
A 25% decrease In the base health to all LAV's, The state LAV's are in right now they remind me of the Canadian built Coyote LAV which has an ANti-tank gun on it and has 8 wheels.
Are LAV's too readily available? A free LAV can run down any Proto suit with it's back turned with no consequence other then the thump they make when they hit the bumper
I was in a match today and managed to just barely fight off 4 LAV's with a flaylock and AV naeds, |

Blam is a babbling fool who is hiding from the problems he has created, It is easier for him to turn a blind eye then try and find a solution and keep the community happy.
If i was a Dev of Dust and looked at the forums and seen 50 threads all about the same thing i would make a public announcement asking the community how they would solve it then i would look at how I would solve it and try and meet a cross roads instead of ``lets change a whole bunch of numbers and see what happens`` |

With the frequency of Hit and runs in dust something needs to change, when i play battlefield i am never run over, because its hard to run people over in battlefield.
Now you are probably an LAV driver and would like to keep up getting your Instant kills with the only threat to you being AV you my good sir and a low life. |

agree. LAVs need to take damage, and people hit by them should be both hurt and thrown, and perhaps have to go through a getting-up animation. |

personally I think murder taxi is a viable tactic and has a viable counter measure ( AV) you don't like it then you should remove tanks as well.... that being said, CCP BLAM is a useless tool who if im not mistaken we haven't heard from since may and should at most least be removed from the head of the vehicle dept. if not fired out right for being useless and unresponsive to the community. |

IMHO, there also needs to be a getting in and getting out animation for all the vehicles. I've seen too many people running around in heavies with LAVs driving right up next to someone, hopping out, WTFPWNing them with their HMG and then speeding off.
I assume they are doing this because of the "push button->Appear in vehicle" we currently have. If they had to worry about getting all shot up while getting into and out of the vehicles, I doubt it would be so rampant.
I also agree with the idea of throwing people when hitting them with LAVs. There should eventually be a full physics suite for vehicle interactions. |

I agree with the original post here. LLAVs have become a severe detriment to what I humbly believe is the intended flow of the game. LLAVs are operating way outside their intended role, making Dust in general a negative experience for a huge portion of the player base (any infantry-only player). There sounds like a few ways it can be "fixed" or "corrected" - my only hope is CCP gives this a very hard look. For myself and several other players I usually run with, this specific issue is killing the "fun factor" and we're seeing the issue contribute greatly to players only logging on to cap out - if at all.
This vid is pretty hilarious to watch, but sadly represents what the game is becoming: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCJ1ca1Ysh4 |

Stopped at "humble transport"
Dropships are transports, LAVs are well... light attack vehicles. They do hit-and-run attacks and support infantry. While that was intended to be done with the turret, I guess the bumper works too. |

I think they could do a few simple alterations to the mechanic for LAVs.
1. Make the LAVs harder to turn over once they flip. No auto flipping. Flipping should take at least 10 seconds.
2. Autokill the LAV and passengers if they drop off one of those super tall buildings.
3. More damage to LAV and passengers for driving off lower buildings.
4. More damage to LAVs and passengers of they hit immovable objects like buildings or turrets.
5. Trees and boulders.
My two cents,

Or just make them not able to hurt infantry at all if they try to run them over. Of course half the player count would quit playin cuz thats the ONLY way they can kill anyone. Efin poonannies. Wait, no, they would just snipe I suppose. |

Ya the red ones not the crappy green ones.
But seriously this all revolves around poor map design, other games have more barriers and terrain and maps that really aren't practical for jeeps all over the place.
Other games can limit what vehicles are on which maps but since CCP cannot then good map design is a MUST. |

At this point I say..........................make is such that the only way to kill someone with an LAV is to squish them between your vehicle and an object. Any other hits in the open against infantry will damage shields and cause the infantry to get hit into the air and then land. Remember we are in dropsuits that can be launched from FREAKIN SPACE!!! and land on a planet unharmed....its rediculous to think that a hit from an LAV would be enough to kill you after you survived a planetary drop. |

I think if you get hit by a murder taxi, your total HP should be taken from the LAV (or maybe just your HP in armor, since shields don't increase your merc's overall mass. So, if an LAV mows down a heavy with 400+ HP armor, it would do around that much damage to the LAV. It makes sense physically...if you hit something in your car, it's gonna do damage to your vehicle. If you hit a large object, it will do more damage than if you were to hit a smaller object. I think implementing a system like this would cut down on the people who spawn LAV's for the sole purpose of running players down, because the drivers themselves would be putting themselves at risk after a short while.
BTW, I know this theory has been brought up before, I just felt like reiterating. |
