honestly i would rather be able to get rid of the turrets on vehicles before i add more.

I can already see a bunch of AR users cry nerf automatic turrets because their too OP and kill them too much, and you know how these things go. people yell nerf automatic turrets and CCP cuts damage by 60% while also reduces dropship's base speed ,hp ,and removing al beneficial skills from skill tree. Even if we have to put 4mil sp into that skill alone and only 2 dropship pilots are good enough to use it effectively its still getting nerfed.

all in all dropships don't need more firepower they need more survivability.

edit: oh yeah. Did you know their used to be 6 turrets not 3.

Blasters
Railguns
Missiles
Lasers
Autocannon
Artillery

i just wonder if the the other 3 are even coming out any more.

Soon there will be amarr and minmatar lasers and projectiles, not to sure about artillery atm, there arnt any arti based weapons ingame yet

Also there are ment to also be pulse laser (scrambler) and beam laser but i doubt they will get that far for a while

Just another fun game of DUST.

excillon united we stand x 16	Posted - 2013.08.15 09:23:00 - [8] - Quote I still want dropships to have different classes: Gunships (more turrets/autofiring) Carriers (more personnel capacity) Bombers (this one explains itself, have a 2 man crew, a pilot and bombardier) AWACs (Give advanced radar feeds to ground forces on enemy positions) And equip them with countermeasures and pilot controlled swarm launchers. Let the tankers deal with THAT. Granted, I don't mess with dropships, but it would be cool to see these in action.

I feel like having more turrets on a regular dropship is not a good idea because it defeats the purpose of the ship being a ship that "drop" its crew. Two turrets on a standard dropship is enough with good well skilled gunners, and in an assault dropships has its own pilot gunning that's with a skilled pilot again that is more than enough.

Obviously you have never used assault dropships. While they give you an extra turret the ship can only fire one gun at a single target. Even with proto missile launchers its take 1 minute+ to destroy anything worth destroying

martinofski Rebelles A Quebec Orion Empire 293	Posted - 2013.08.15 13:42:00 - [14] - Quote They could just : - increase the small turret range, so we don't have to be 20m over the target to do significant damages. - Repair the glitch making the turret move up when aiming too low under the dropship (for gunners) - Small railgun...lol - resist to Forge could be good, or actually make the DS better, since LAV do fine against forge. - Make a check on stats for the vehicles modules, especially in the Engineering ones... lvl1 give 5% bonus, lvl3 give 4% and lvl4 give 7%. - RDV should not be able to deliver vehicle when a DS is in the trajectory...or at least, it should blow up too, with it's delivery. - Resistance per lvl when skilling into the ADS, should be 2% per lvl, not 1%. See LLAV bonus per level. - On the ADS, pressing the thumbstick for aiming change the view, changing the aiming as well to "right on the horizon". Actually, fix the view, aiming through the ADS in 3rd person view is stupid. Maybe I am doing it wrong, but why the hell can I move up&down the aim in 3rd person view, but not in 1st person... - Opening and closing bay door when hovering too low...see the first point also...this is annoying.

I would think missiles would be scary, but considering most dropsuits can take 3-6 missiles to the face, i guess they aren't very scary weapons... BUT AN AUTOCANNON, YES PLEASE

BUT AN AUTOCANNON, YES PLEASE I think the autocannon is like a big HMG like in EVE i think ( i dont play EVE but my bro does and he has mention it before). I just hope it's not out classed by the blaster when it comes out.
