I fly a dropship pretty well but refuse to spec into them. They're too expensive for too little incentive to use. I mainly use my MLT ones to get people from A to B whenever it's needed.
I'm an even better gunner though. My best so far was going 50-0 with a buddy of mine using a Scattered Ion Blaster. The fact that my turret skills stack with his allows the blaster to kill anyone in less than a couple seconds. Added to that, most people never bother to look up when they're getting shot. I can post the screenshot if anyone wants proof. :P |

I'm a Logi on the ground, but I love to fly. I fly everything from one way suicide trips with an entire squad on tanks, to Logi DS (though not that much since occasionally it just fills up with randoms who forget what the circle button does.) and my favourite is my Incubus.
Have to say, with a coordinated squad, dropping off guys to do some damage to swing back around and pick them up out of a hot zone is thrilling to say the least.
Wow I actually use dropships to transport people. Where am I?
I fly all Gallente simply because most everyone else flies Caldari. It's tough, but rewarding when it works. |

awesome, and everybody agrees that most of the time dropships are too expensive, and don't do anything other than the occasional kill, and then forge gun food? |

Dropships need a price nerf and an ehp buff.
I managed to actually stay in the air for awhile in my incubus for a bit....then got shot down by a flipping forge gunner.....lets just say there were tears shed by a certain heavy wielding a certain forge gun 15 seconds after my ship exploded |

the dropship is the most versatile vehicle in dust. It takes a talented pilot and a skilled crew to operate effectively and has very effective counters. Right now the problem is the new camera, it has severely limited the dropships role.
Since this is a pilot thread I'm going to drop a link to a Petition I've created to get the 1.3 camera angle back into the game, if not as the standard at least as an option. https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=1255895#post1255895 support is appreciated |

CaoticFox is a long time DS pilot... but went ground on UPRISING... DropShip Command is my DS character, which has subsequently switched to LAV and TANKING to pay the bills... CCP hates DropShips! |

wow interesting. I think that this new view definately needs to be fixed, but i like how we can actuallly aim our front cannon on assault dropship. the main problem i'm having is that i can't see how much HP the guys inside my dropship have, so if they are getting shot, and they are a blueberry i don't know when to fly up so they don't die. |

I posted befor on my tank char. I'll post here on the char I am most usung for dropship although I ds on all three of my maun chars.
I'm always up for ds teams and I'll gun for anyoneposting on here.
Join the Condor Squad channel as wellcas the Honey Badger channel for finding folks.
With the complaints abour ds in 1.4 and people saying they are going to stop flying that makes me want to do it all the more. More of a challenge. Fun, fun!
Just moving into ADS. Can't wait to practice with that one. |
