How close were you to the ground? ;)

For the Forge, extremely lucky shots, I've done it to LAVs and Dropships with both Forge and Rail, and I've just looked at my hands and realized I am God.[quote]

The people that snipe your guys are pretty damn good snipers, but they need to be counterable if Dropships get a buff in 1.5 and then have passengers with the ability to fire out the side of the ship.

i am certain that 'X' opens the doors. when ever i use it does.

remember they are shooting the gunners out and gunners are partially coveed by a turret now imagine someone exposed without a turret protecting them

Same company different studios, one has near perfected the player feedback process, the other is still rolling on the floor after it fell over its first baby step.

Can you imagine MD rounds raining down from the sky?

MD user ehhh.

Can you imagine everyone respec'ing into AV, when dropships fly full, which means x2 the warpoint bonus on kills, and they go down in two hits?

Side comment on "balance" for using large internal weapons from a dropship:

Seems like the fair thing to do, would be for things that require "heavy" suit to use, to also impart Very Large light instabilty when fired.

eg: firing off HMG continuously out of port side, gives ship an increasing impetus over to the starboard direction

and things like swarm launchers... well come on now, doesnt the idea of firing off a whole bunch of *rockets*, in a space filled with *ammo*, and limited visibility, just sound incredibly dangerous to you?

They should just enable friendly fire in more situations.

example 1: swarm laucher target manages to get in front of/behind of your DS.
just ONE of the missiles, doesnt *quite* make it. Now the budding little AV-er has just blown up not just himself, but all his buddies, AND 300-600K.

2. dropship crashes they risk dying.

can you imagine CCP actually doing something positive for dropships?

the 'x' button opens the bay doors, but players cant shoot. how difficult would it be to enable this?

we already have all passengers hit boxes detectable in the dropship. so they can be shot out of the dropship. why can't we just enable weapon fire and allow them to shoot out?

feed back would be nice.

I take it you've never tried to shoot on down before.

never. No. Never, ever NEVER allow this idea, it would be so abused by the extreemly OP MDs and forge gunners

lol says the guy who only uses proto caldari assualt with AR.

ive... never been assualt or used an ar before...? ive been everything other than assualt. That and DS

Can you imagine MD rounds raining down from the sky?

am I the only one crazy enough to switch from pilot to passanger to use my assault forge on an enemy dropship chasing me and hopping back in the pilot seat. I might need to start practicing in case this ever happens

we dont need an accuracy penalty because we already have to deal with it...lol

trying to position dropships so as to take advantage of the turrets is difficult. the LOS of the turrets is rough too. if the weapons infantry carry on drop hips get the same LOS limitations as a turret then accuracy nerf wont be nessesary.

even if they were 100% accurate you would still be able to take them out with AV.

imagine an AV nade hitting the side of the dropship where my gunners are....lol instant kills any suit. period...lol

For the record, I'm also a dropship user.

I was simply saying that 4 MDs in a dropship would devastate ground troops.
