If i wanted to play a where vehicles where just support i would play Call of Duty. I play this game because there is vehicle collision. Taking that away would make this game boring. Not being able to run people down is a big mistake. the main people complaining about this are people in pub rooms with proto gear. They hate the fact that if there not paying attention and they loss there expensive gear. There are plenty of counters for LAVs, Tanks, Forge guns, Swarm Launchers, Explosives, Mass Drivers, AV grenades, and fast dropsuits. I get killed by these "murder taxi" players all the time, but i look at it as its my fault for not looking around, and not being equip (having my anti vehicle class on). These are my faults not a miss balance in game play. With out free LAV people are now using the upgraded versions. These players need to evolve there game play not change the game to fit a personal style, witch sounds like COD. Like i said before i'm playing this game because of how it is now. There are more important issues CCP should be dealing with, so let them. |

Most of the problem lies with the LLAV being nearly unkillable within a reasonable time frame. Most anti-vehicle methods are almost pointless due to the tank and speed of the LLAV. It out runs swarms, it drives over proximities without taking damage, tracking them with forges on certain maps is nearly impossible.
I at one point was a dedicated AV guy until they rebuffed my MD. Let me tell you that when 2 to 3 LLAVs are on the map at once, I have rarely ever seen the team on the receiving end win because by the time you take care of the LAV problem the game is over.
They can leave road kill in they just need to address the fact that LAVs are more dangerous than tanks. |

Has CCP stated how they plan to balance LAVs? I agree with you for the most part.
Even the most skilled and shield tanked LAV is vulnerable to a good AV fitting. Pissed off because your free Assault - Anti Armor fit with the Militia Swarm Launcher doesn't do jack? That thing is a toy. Militia should only be effective against Militia and fools. Learn to multi-class a little and spec into a some decent AV gear. Get better grenades. Get a better Swarm Launcher. Lay out some Proximity Explosives. Learn to wreck people's **** with a Forge Gun. Take advantage of the ridiculously vulnerable driver's seat and shoot that ****** from literally any angle with an installation (those things penetrate LAVs, drivers ******* hate it). Use that Mass Driver you love to run as your main (because I know half of you run Mass Driver), the splash damage DOES in fact hit drivers.
There is one change that I want to see vs Murder Taxis. Put them on the god damned radar. I can hear these bastards halfway across the map. Why can't my high tech radar pick them up? 90% of the time I'm run over by an LAV, it's because the bastard hit me from behind and my radar was useless. They're loud and they're large. Their scan signature should be easier to spot than a scout suit. |

Just stop.. Seriously, LAVs have ruined this game. If you disagree then you are either driving them for kills or truly ignorant. Quit crying and skill into a weapon. |

I don't think the removal of free LAVs should have been the answer. I think the fact that those militia LAVs were tough enough to survive militia swarms and some forge guns. It should have just been nerfed so they were really easy to kill. Also the fact that impact damage is ridiculous even when they go at a snail's pace. I got killed many times because the corners of the LAV tapped my suit :/ LLAVs though need some kind of hindrance on control or speed cause you can easy take out a LLAV if you could ever hit one with a flux grenade. That when you run people over it can cause a speed reduction and damage the vehicle to bring out more risk when you use the LAV as a murder taxi. |

If a LLAV is terrorizing you, call in a blaster tank or blaster LAV and kill the driver. It really is that easy. Remember to park your new LLAV it in the redline when you're done with it. |

Oh, yeah, just let me call down over a million ISK worth of fragile HAV to deal with a lolgistics (because they don't do anything actually logistics related) LAV, which costs <1/4 as much, yet has just as much killing potential and is FAR harder to kill.
I'm not saying your solution doesn't work, but it really isn't "that easy" and demonstrates how imbalanced LLAVs are. |

Nah way man. You can't even hear those things until they've ran you over. |
