I never quite understand the "just use AV" argument against the LAV problem.
Yes, AV is cool for blowing up vehicles sometimes. That doesn't change the fact that Militia LAVs can pop up out of no where and hit you for 10,000 damage.
I used to run nothing but AV nades and I still got ran over pretty often. Most of Dust's maps consist of big wide open fields. And even large parts of the 'cities' can be susceptible to roadkill. I've seen the things driving through crates, up on catwalks, in all kinds of nooks and crannies.
There is a problem. It's a combination of poor map 'design' and wild amounts of damage and high health bars for zero skill points and a small amount of isk. |

Here I thought they were transport vehicles and that HAVs were meant to kill/suppress infantry. |

Common mistake, their name is Light Attack Vehicle, and in their description they are supposed to be amazing anti-infantry vehicles.
I thought that was a reference to the gun on top, not the front bumper. |

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. I don't know why the player base didn't try this already. Man, we must look really silly. 
Maybe they don't work as well as LAV drivers like to pretend they do?  |

Or because they came up from behind you and by the time you hear them its often too late.
Or you catch them sneaking, throw AV nades and its not enough to kill them and they still run you over.
Or you catch them, throw av, and the nade bugs out, blows up, does no damage and then they run you over.
Or you were paying attention. Got yourself into a nice small area that LAVs really shouldn't be driving to, then they drive into them and run you over.
Or you see them coming, but you're on a part of them map that's an open field (80% of all maps in Dust), so you try to move and get out of the way in time, but its too late and they run you over.
Said it before, and I'll say it again. The bumper of a jeep being more effective than the mounted weapon on a jeep is a clear sign of **** poor game design. Keep on blaming the victims though. |
