Vin Vicious Capital Acquisitions LLC 187	Posted - 2013.07.19 00:55:00 - [1] - Quote But you dont fix driver hit boxes? how fcuking dumb is that. THE HIT BOX FOR THE DRIVER IS BIGGER THAN THE CAR ITSELF. You literally get shot out of the car as a driver FROM BEHIND, BEFORE THE TURRET GUNNER.
da GAND 187. League of Infamy 87	Posted - 2013.07.19 00:56:00 - [2] - Quote I don't see how getting rid of the starter fit LAV is gonna fix anything
Doc Noah Algintal Core Gallente Federation 299	Posted - 2013.07.19 00:57:00 - [3] - Quote I remember reading a thread about how hitboxes get bigger the faster you are, I wonder if its the same issue or if its just blaster aoe hitting the driver.

CCP Wolfman confirmed that no such system exists in this game.

Now, the only free LAVs are the Blood Raider and the Guristas, both of which are better than the old free ones, and those without those models are using higher tier, better fitted replacements. After all, if I have to pay for them now, why shouldn't I go all out to protect my investment? The only good thing I can see is that now I don't have to wait for the horde of free LAV spam to pass before I get my own death taxi.
Michael Arck sephiroth clones D.E.F.I.A.N.C.E 326	Posted - 2013.07.19 01:15:00 - [9] - Quote The murder taxi thing needed immediate attention. There was a resounding cry to do something about that. Noobs, FOTM type players were just going haywire driving around the map like a game of crazy taxi. I'm glad they make people pay for their murder taxis now. It's only right. Because before, a merc could spawn in a free murder taxi and with considerable skill development, he could save money by just running folks over. So yes, paying for murder taxis changes alot. If you think about the ins and outs, you'll see.
Doc Noah Algintal Core Gallente Federation 300	Posted - 2013.07.19 01:25:00 - [10] - Quote People werent complaining about free LAVs, they were complaining about how easy it is for any LAV in general to get kills on even the toughest of tankers. Removing free LAVs was more of a cover fix, it doesnt fix the underlying problem. Murder taxi will still murder taxi, free or not. People have suggested many ways to solve this problem, one of them is to treat dropsuits like LAVs in that ramming into another LAV does damage, so why does dropsuit ramming have no penalty. With that being said, I predict CCP is gonna release the starter fit LAV BPO for aurum in market

I have played around 10 matches now and haven't seen a single murder taxi. The starter fit LAVs were easy to destroy anyways so those that used the starter fits only didn't last long. So now people will be sticking with the logistics LAV, or blood raider sagas. Basically people are going to be sticking with the LAVs that are harder to kill , again getting rid of the free LAVs didn't fix anything. In fact there was no reason to get rid of it
BrownEye1129 SVER True Blood 4	Posted - 2013.07.19 01:39:00 - [12] - Quote So now heavies have to walk unless they spec a bit into LAVs or hope a blue berry will be kind enough to driver them to their destination. Doesn't sound fair to the heavies. Having to spend more SP and Isk just to get into the warzone. Just my thoughts heavies are people too!

I for one hope this bug gets rebranded as a feature, I love what my tank does to logi LAVs at the moment, makes up for the fact that killing the LAV takes twice as long as killing a turret.

DUST Fiend OSG Planetary Operations Covert Intervention 5291	Posted - 2013.07.19 02:14:00 - [16] - Quote I still don't really understand why you would go full on murder taxi and not at least grab a level of heavy with a plate, rep, and shield extender, whatever you can fit. If you're going to sit in your car the whole game, you might as well increase your odds of survival by getting as many aych pees as possible.

It's nice apart from when you get one shotted out the front of your methana by an unmanned blaster turret.

Ok I've seen plenty of threads where people say "CCP do you hate ____________" , I don't think they hate any of the stuff in this game, they just have a really really really really hard time trying to balance things out.

Cygnus Gogela Freeport Exploration Loosely Affiliated Pirates Alliance 111	Posted - 2013.07.19 19:08:00 - [27] - Quote I have a BPO for that faction LAV... thinking I should just spawn 40 or 50 of them from behind our red line @ the start of the game. LOL! Will try it tonight.
ZDub 303 TeamPlayers EoN. 1041	Posted - 2013.07.19 20:30:00 - [28] - Quote Is it really that hard to buy a single 40k isk MLT LAV... drive it to the warzone.. and recall it? Seriously... I don't say this much but HTFU guys. Free LAVs were a problem with murder taxi. The playerbase pays a very small price with their disappearance. They shouldn't have even been in the game in the first place.

Getting rid of the free ones didn't solve anything. Those are now just used for transport or for idiots that thought they could run a bunch of people over but instead get blown up quickly. They need to put an update where the LAV takes damage every time they run someone over, not this pointless s*** that they've done

But honestly... it was time to remove the free LAV as well. Spend the 100k SP and skill into a halfway decent LAV and buy a couple. Its not that bad, it really isn't.
