102. how to get into Assault dropships, the "easy" way - in Rookie Training Grounds [original thread]
I was curious about assault dropships, but they take quite a bit of SP to unlock. I had many other things I wanted to try out, so I didnt want to sink my SP into something I might not like. I thought I'd try the standard trick of creating a teste...

more dumb "is that realy true"? questions... Reguarding losing a lock only by "waiting"... might it be possible to lose it by a temporary sprint? Seems like a lot of other things get reset that way. Or, switch weapon. If you have one equipped, tha...

106. Dropship Flight School - in Rookie Training Grounds [original thread]
Do you have insight as to what specifically triggers the rear swivel, and even better, what trigggers the UNswivel? Would you say it is purely based on groundspeed? Or are the other factors? For example, to get INTO it, I think the following cond...

This happened to me just now. I share it as a cautionary tale. I was up on a relatively high hill. I had just "retired" some guy below me, in a medium suit, I think. Technically, he was "on a hill", but it was kinda a low-ish hill, comparatively ...
