I mean, as it is, the only way for a vehicle to dodge a spartan laser is to stay out of sight. Surely there must be a better solution.
I've always thought that the painting/targeted beam could/should be more visible to the person/vehicle being targeted. Adding a second (yea probably just 1 second would do) to the charge time might make a difference as well. Combined with a better warning system (more visible painting/targeting beam), it would give the person/vehicle more time react and find cover. Of course people would adapt and learn to use the splaser more discreetly (ie: following the enemy with the charging/targeting beam as opposed to leading them with it, and charging up while in cover and painting their target at the last second). But that is actually a good thing - it would turn the splaser into more of a skill weapon.
