1961. Lets talk Drop Ships - in General Discussions [original thread]
The landing gear is beefy, it's the sides or top of the ship that are made of balsa wood. You can crush mercs with the gear, but don't even think of brushing a lamp post. You can tank a FG round, but bump a wall at a walking pace and it's all ove...

1962. Lets talk Drop Ships - in General Discussions [original thread]
I feel that CCP Blam! has great ideas for the DS on paper, but hasn't actually experienced them in game. There are so many things like Remote Shield Repair that are great in theory, but absurdly impractical in reality. It has also been reported t...

1963. hey i just revived you - in General Discussions [original thread]
Mash L3 and aim for cover as you are revived to perform a "power slide". You can move several feet instead of rising in place and standing still to be shot again. It's perfect for those cases where great cover is just a few steps away. Help you...

1964. Rolling the Dropship to Launch lol - in General Discussions [original thread]
Stay well away from all structures until the insane collision damage is eliminated. That's a bad map to fly on because of all the crash opportunities.

1965. The meanning behind some of our names. - in General Discussions [original thread]
I went for a pilots nickname, playing off the landing "skids" on helicopters or the Star Trek shuttle craft.

1967. Dropship's wp's and isk - in General Discussions [original thread]
Piggy backing on the WP of dropped passengers is probably the least exploitable mechanic. It's like the Logi repping mechanism. You only get Triage points from a merc if he recently did damage to an enemy. That eliminates standing away from battl...

1968. Serious imbalance with ISK and OBs - in General Discussions [original thread]
I have to believe that CCP won't set the rules such that every loser just glasses the battlefield. That will probably be a rare occurrence due to either game mechanics (not having the option) or ISK cost. Yeah, you lose the facility, but it's st...

1970. Serious imbalance with ISK and OBs - in General Discussions [original thread]
Right now EVE pays for nothing, not even a little drip. Once EVE starts paying for battles we can get "materials plus" contracts and losing a single HAV will mean nothing. Losing a dozen installations will mean nothing to the corp fighting cost w...

1971. I have a theory about HAV drivers. - in General Discussions [original thread]
The way I see it is those who suck at flying choose to be a ground pounder to cover for their lack of skill. All those who can't make a WP living in the incredibly challenging environment of the skies admit their poor skills and opt to stay on the...

1974. Closed Beta Vets opinion on open beta - in General Discussions [original thread]
We all know they rushed open beta. You just don't push a game in this condition on people who don't know what they are getting into. That said, I'm in for the long haul. I figure it will be ready to attract new players in a year or two.

To be more precise, the OB is not an "I win" button as much as it is a "This time you die" button. Unlike a HAV it is a one shot weapon with a substantial "cool-down". You can't go on a rampage with it. You can't call them in one after the othe...

1976. Serious imbalance with ISK and OBs - in General Discussions [original thread]
The more that I think about this issue the more I believe that CCP wants the OB to be a "You die" button. If tanks have a tough time getting out then unmounted infantry doesn't stand a chance. I've been caught many a time fairly close to cover bu...
