What's broken? Hit detection and weapon tracking/aim-assist is coming in 1.4 watch out for turrets to be more manageable again.

Have you never gunned in the last 4 months?

You cannot aim any turret to the lower front half of ship without it resetting to aim right along the nose ( at nothing ).
Its infuriating and kills a huge area where people used to be able to gun at. Not to mention ruins all synergy with assault ds nose gun. Im flying and aiming where I can hit thing, You cannot assist anywhere near my target.

Thays the ****ing bug

They know that's a bug with the aiming down the nose. I'm not suggesting its working fine now, but there are changes coming that will hopefully improve a bit.

Then again we have the accelerated missiles, those are good. But money for Scattered Blaster.

Mother Facker Eyniletti Rangers Minmatar Republic 18	Posted - 2013.08.21 16:46:00 - [12] - Quote My favourite turret would be the proto accelerated missile. The higher velocity of the projectile allows me to hit moving targets more consistently.
Nguruthos IX Hellstorm Inc League of Infamy 1107	Posted - 2013.08.21 16:47:00 - [13] - Quote Gunners have been doing "good" in spite of this. When im flying if I want them to have the best area of shooting I have to turn around and present my ass tp forge gunners so they can aim out lower back without glitching. Or I have to completely split left and right sides. Front is broke. Its a pain for me and the gunners. First thing anyone notices when gunning, they say on mic how ****ed their guns are being

However what they are talking about is improving the way ads aims its turret which right now is pretty sub par. That will hopefully be a huge quality off life change but these are different things entirely

That's obvious Men up seriously. We all know you're buthurt about DS, but you could have easily just answered which one you prefer, since obviously, if you fly like a Boss, you need to use some. I prefer the XT fragmented missiles, good direct hit damage, higher radius for splash making the hit register more. Works for me at least. Never tried the blaster that much, to much PG usage to my taste.
Poplo Furuya Condotta Rouvenor Gallente Federation 690	Posted - 2013.08.21 18:12:00 - [26] - Quote I like the Scattered Blaster but the Accelerated Missiles are a close second. Cycled are my least favourite. You adjust aim and timing of each individual missile to the movement of the dropship... but with Cycled this only works for the first third of each salvo and the rest is a bit of a crapshoot.
Thumb Green Novashift 306	Posted - 2013.08.21 18:35:00 - [27] - Quote Nothing more annoying that some jackass kid trying to act like he's something. To answer the question, it depends on how the DS pilot flies. If they like to hang back I prefer if they have a cycled missiles. It just seems I have a better chance hitting people with that. However if they like to get in close then it can either be the cycled missiles or a blaster. Doesn't matter as long as it's proto and the pilot either takes off or turns the ship around when I tell him I'm getting shot up.

SILVERBACK 02 SVER True Blood Public Disorder. 146	Posted - 2013.08.22 14:00:00 - [31] - Quote small rail gun turret compressed. reason- getting a kill with it is a miracle so i feel all skillful when using it. plus it gives the enemy on the ground a chance whilst im in the air in my DEATH SHIP ; )
Scheneighnay McBob Bojo's School of the Trades 3085	Posted - 2013.08.22 14:02:00 - [32] - Quote They're all terrible in their own special ways, so I don't want to be a dropship gunner anymore. I guess it would be stabilized, though, if you can fit it. My Scout LAV has a prototype stabilized blaster- one of the advantages of not having many slots.
Chris F2112 A.N.O.N.Y.M.O.U.S. 331	Posted - 2013.08.22 14:46:00 - [33] - Quote Blasters are by far the best, but are the hardest to fit as well. Depending on the skill of your gunner fragmented or accelerated also work.
