They need to set it up thusly:

Bounty system more prominant i.e. If you kill 10 people and are alive for 5 min or longer, you are worth a bounty bonus when killed. The person that kills you get the full bounty and the squad EXP stays as is. This way YOU still get for individual and the squad gains for you as well.

I like to stay A to A. I attack ground when im needed to but i have to reclaim my pride as the owner of teh skiez! I need practice cuz in beta i was teh owner, now im just one of many really good air to air pilots. Hit me up with /t if ur an enemy and want to battle. WE can find a nice empty facil and duke it out old honorable 1 to 1 style!

Dont get me wrong i love this game, its the only game i currently play (if its made me drop my previous games then it has alot of good features), thats probably one of the reasons for highlighting things we dont like or think need improving, i.e i want to play this game for a long time without losing interest, hence these are my opinions on what would extend this.

is there really any harm in highlighting issues which grieve you? Game Discussion
Discuss your Planetside thoughts here.

If you cant challenge other peoples views theres not gonna be much discussion apart from planetside r0x0r's posts.

1.... reaver is common pool. 2 its only really good for targets that are out in the open and not moving. If you are both of these. Then you deserve to get owned. If no one in your squad has AA of one type or another and knows how to use it. You deserve to get owned. If you leave an AMS bubble without listening for the reaver before you exit. You deserve to get owned.

I usually only use the reaver when i need an equallizer cuz the rest of my empire's doin to much squattin and not enough killin. I often get /tells w/ complements "VS should be very proud you fly for them" though i can never tell if they are being sarcastic.

IMO maxs have longer life spans. Almost everytime i buy a reaver then lose it. I can't buy another one for a roughly 2 minutes. But i seen guys buy max, die, and buy another max. Just cuz it's easier to survive as a max for the spawn timer duration.
Sure there are alot of reaver n00bs. Just like infil n00bs or any other PS vocation. welcome to Auraxis. And you know what else? It's gonna be this way for at least a year. And you're not likely to be able to tell the difference anytime soon. At least not til its too late.

I use guns primarily on other aircraft, unless I have a good position on a Galaxy and can fire a spread at it. I also lay a salvo of rockets into the idiot Reaver or Skeeter pilots that hover in place then circle strafe in its rear arc with my guns.

I think the reason you get the kind of response you did (and why there's a negative reaction to Reavers overall) is because that person was embarrassed, felt helpless against your attack and needed to lash out. Take it in stride as a natural reaction. All the people complaining about Reavers just don't understand that all they need to feel safe are to bring some AA MAX'es with them and Reavers become much less of a problem. The thing is, most people think specialized AA MAX'es are useless outside of countering fliers (they are) and, thus, don't want to dedicate a spot for one in their squad. That's too bad, because if they choose not to bring along AA help, they really shouldn't cry about Reavers taking them out.

Hehe, you know that AA MAX's are really effective, but yeah, I do think that people need to stop complaining about the Reavers...their there for a reason. Anyway, when I was a reaver I used rockets mostly, I got used to the firing angle and I could lead most ships and do alot of intial damage.

They don't have to fix much, just bring back squad sharing instead of spliting. That way being in a squad is actually a bigger advantage then going solo.

I concur.
