So we had a look at swarm launchers. But how about those pesky forge gunners. This is NOT a render issue, but it's just as bad. So from a dropship POV, here is the issue and as I like to try to make this game better rather than just complain, my idea for a very simple solution. Not the total solution but part of it.
Remember to set it to 720p Forge Solution # 1 |

Also the headlight on the drop-ship, which serves no purpose but to tell enemies where YOU are at, also masks the glow of forge guns.

What I think is they definitely need to change the glow or add some other effect around the unit, at least visible by vehicles, so you can actually see them.
The rendering is also an issue. |

Something akin to defend order circle would work. Only fair since they can see me from 300 meters and I can't see them but for a third of the range of my small missile turret. |

I was thinking as per the last video I did that you get the defend order style on the locking swarm but not on the forge. It makes sense for a swarm, as it has a lock on mechanic, but no so much a forge. Also to many targets would clutter the screen and be more of a hinderance than an assist.
Combine bothe these and you get one target circle and 2 new radar icons. W also need some sort of way to separate the charge up from map lighting and our on headlights. |

Why not make all handheld AV weaponry (Swarms/Forges/Cannon) have that marker appear during charge/lock-on but only for pilots? It'd give pilots a warning of where they're going to get blasted from without it being super unfair against AV specialists.
It would help solve Invisa-Swarms and the non-appearing Flashlight Gun issues.
Non-pilot here, but that **** is ridiculous to actually see. |

I strongly believe that every non-pilot should view this, and other Judge videos.

I just give my opinions on issues regardless of the side I happen to be on. As a Cannon user, I would be blipped for less than half a second but that half a second could be the difference between losing out on ~1M ISK or surviving to fight some more.
I like having Vehicles in this game mean something (totally not going into an AV vs Vehicles meltdown here) because they can offer a level of support that can't be matched by normal Infantry.
Also, I try to view most videos that appear on the Forums. Education is the key to making this game unrivaled. |

As a forge gunner I agree with this. I think you defiantly still need more of a indicator or better color change for charging forges to tell you exactly where I am at, not just on the mini-map. I do massive amounts of damage, Knowing where am I am is supposed to be the counter to that. |
