Right now, LAV and dropship passengers (the ones not driving or in turrets) are useless. We should let them be able to fight.
LAV: Pressing X makes you lean out, letting you shoot your secondary weapon.
Dropship: You can use your primary weapon, but you can't move.
Basically, people would actually like the passenger seats. |

Anyways, The Dropship one should limit to no explosives, so no problem could arise from that. Just sayin.... |

I would just like to be able to look round while being a passenger in a DS again staring at the doors doesn't really allow precision dropping. |

I'm with Medic here. with prototype turrets it's not so difficult to devastate an area with two decent gunners, even more with an ADS with a good pilot.
I'd rather implement two things:
1. Let passengers look around, especially AT OTHER PASSENGERS.
2. Implement a green/red light in the dropship bay which can be toggled by the pilot to indicate when it's safe to deploy from the dropship. (I believe this idea was originally suggested by Pvt. Numnutz, credits go to him)
Essentially, when the light turns from red to green (the whole bay could be gently illuminated by these coloured light panels, that'd be awesome) passengers know to hop out. And even if they don't, watching other passengers jump out will act as another reason to hop out and assist them. |

All good points, but i think passenger combat is a natural progression. Limitations should be in place but ask yourself, why does an ADS Have 4 passenger slot but only 2 with turrets? I think 4 turrets would OP the DS but 2 turrets and 2 guys with rifles would give the ADS a nice boost without making them flying tanks. It's not logical for heavies and launchers to be able to fire from the DS because the slot left on the drop down doors is too small. Essentially DS pilots need some love from CCP, but I got a feeling its gonna be a while until we are seeing good results. |
