On a related note, what would you think of having different angles for the ADS and the other types of dropship?
I will tell you what we have wanted for ages, a bloody first person view that is actual like your sitting in it, and not just a window with markers on the side and a little x in the centre. Countless suggestions, but when a video pops along, you devs suddenly spark up.
Tired of this bs.

First person view is how we should fly most of the time, yes I understand different playstyles, but really?
Third person is just there to have a quick look around, not to be aiming a turret that can not kill a dog's fleas.

Btw I am quoting from you just so you might see what I am writing, I do not want to be speaking to a blank wall.
Ubderstand this - firs person view is extremely essential for offensive vehicles
Transportation vehicles rely on third person.
Since the assault dropship is getting removed you do not need to worry so much about changing third person as, we did not need it AND the 1.6 cam is as good as it can be for transportation and as a small gunning platform.

And what happened to this?
Cmdr Wang, who had mentioned in a weekly feedback/request update said that this will be visited after core gameplay is fixed, I guess work has begun on dropship redesign and about Cmdr Wang, where has he disappeared to?
Take a look at that thread as it is the biggest collection of suggestions on ds re-design I could find.

I also understand that us vets find it relatively easy to shoot through the centre of our dropship at red chevrons, but this is not appealing to new pilots, it also looks bad on the game itself.
For people who want to aim down through the ship, simple, make the ship transparent when doing so...
But I do not think that this was well thought over as CCP just wanted to shove as much content in as reasonably possible in Uprising.
FPV... all I want. Take a look at any game which involves offensive aerial vehicles...
Hate to say it but even planetside 2 has good first person camera's and aiming mechanics.

People are people, we all want different things. We need the first person view before we can determine how much third person was used. I personally fly fpv 75% of my flying time. I only really rely on third person to have a quick glimpse around.
Third person again, is important for transport vehicles. They need to know when to drop their crew.
When fighters come out (if they ever do) will rely on fpv for dogfighting. I am so happy that they have not released fighters yet because if they did.. and it had a little window with an X they I would rather ram the other pilot than shoot him/her down.
In fact, I will make a dogfighting thread when I have time.

I also hope that the assault dropship will be the last aircraft to have a movable pilot turret as this is what causes the issues with the third person, but, the physics of the dropship and the sh1tness of the turret does not allow you to deal any where near enough damage to be worthwhile.

Great work CCP, keeping the assault dropship in-game for 1.7 just cost you time and effort to keep wasting electricity on fixing the assault dropship camera.
