Ydubbs81 RND Ahrendee Mercenaries 1074	Posted - 2013.04.21 22:46:00 - [5] - Quote If they don't include jets....dropships with pilot-manned turrets are the next best option. Good luck to snipers in the hills

Good luck to snipers in the hills My question is how effective those turrets will be. I think they'll be able to hit, but not enough to be a threat. They would just let pilots get more assists.

Missiles are gonna get fixed so maybe we will see an increased chance of them being used.

I've got a damn good Dropship pilot in my Corp that gets barely any rewards considering how easy it is to Forge Gun him out of the sky.

Not a rewarding experience to say but pilots need to get way more War points then they do for how much Dropships cost and how easy they get shot down

Whenever I drop people from my Galaxy in that game, I get 5 XP for each kill they get for the first minute or so after they hit the dirt.

Please watch FanFest next week. I want fighters but i rather see the DSes balanced first (WP/SP is neccisary, in my opinion the DS is the biggest inbalance, think I`m wrong? dare you to spec into them), if they give us a double combo then everyone knows my reply: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wvsboPUjrGc
Lazy Scumbag The Unholy Legion Of DarkStar DARKSTAR ARMY 1	Posted - 2013.04.22 12:42:00 - [19] - Quote Would like to see dropships get a pilot controlled turret to make my kamikaze runs more entertaining. From my experience dropship=certain death; but in this game, what doesn't? It's a lot of Isk, with no reward. Although dropships do make forge guns more fun

Two things A: Pilot suit? That's going to be CRUNKKK tiny tina's voice B: According to everything i have found so far there are going to be a new type of tank (minimitar tanks), a new level of tanks/lavs/dropships (standard, advanced, and proto, which means the proto we have now will become advanced) and also there will be Assault Dropships that have pilot-mounted guns on them ^-^ of which i will be specing into

I'd like to get a full assist for everything they do in the next minute, that or squad leader commissions (20%). Also, I hope the front mounted turret is able to be aimed. Missiles could require a lock, but other turrets should always be aimed forwards with the ability to tilt them up and down with the right stick. This would add some use to the camera control there.

Orin the Freak Pink Fluffy Bounty Hunterz Noir. Mercenary Group 419	Posted - 2013.04.23 06:35:00 - [23] - Quote TBH, flying vehicles ruin infantry gameplay, since most of the maps in dust lack any serious cover from aerial fire. The fact that most lettered objectives in the game are out in the open and prone to being covered from the air means unless more people spec into AV, flying vehicles in pub matches are going to win 90% of the time. So.. yeah. If they give flying vehicles better weapons, they better have less tank. A vehicle that can sit above an objective and rain hell down is a portable orbital, and should not exist.

Good ole days. Red lining them and then flying into the red zone to squish them while my gunners blasted them to bits with a proto missile launcher. Sitting on top of the towers and sniping while the DS gunners spammed missiles. I may cry.

I have to ask you, have you ever flown a dropship? They have barely more Hp than a standard LAV, all you need to take down one is a barely decent forge gunner.

Everything that is non-infantry ruins infantry gameplay. Tanks ruin infantry gameplay amd dropsjips are much more easier to take out than a tank.
