Further to these two fixes, weGÇÖre in the process of updating how collision damage is calculated and addressing vehicles, vehicle modules, turrets and vehicle skills in a rebalance pass that weGÇÖre hoping to complete for Uprising 1.4 or a hot-fix thereafter. This is likely to be a fairly substantial overhaul so once weGÇÖre in a position to do so weGÇÖll make sure you all get a good look at them and weGÇÖll attempt to address any concerns before finalizing the update.

Can I get a link to the source please?

LAV = Light Assault Vehicle

Their description mentions nothing about transportation but instead talks about how they are effective against infantry.

They are nearly identical to / modeled after warthogs from Halo, which are quite effective in combat.

There is absolutely nothing to back up the argument that LAVs are meant as transports. They have always been meant as killing machines and the older versions were so easy to kill I was afraid to hop inside of one even as a transport.

If anything about the LAV needs changing to could trade some impact damage for drastically improved turret performance.

Light = Fast & mobile. Any good LAV player uses it for hit & run / harassment.

Heavy = Slow & powerful. HAVs move around slowly destroying everything in their path including LAVs that don't run away fast enough.

The "light" doesn't override the "assault". If it was a transport vehicle it would be called a Light Transport Vehicle.

erm... isn't it Light Armoured Vehicle?
