Jadek Menaheim Xer Cloud Consortium 406	Posted - 2013.11.20 06:28:00 - [1] - Quote I can't seem to get an answer on this CCP. Are any changes being introduced for the resupply range when approaching a Supply Depot for ammo in 1.7? The current distance for depot-to-vehicle repairs feels terribly close in the context of repairing a dropship. You practically need to be touching the depot to see an effect. I can foresee some major problems with pilot blindspots when multiple dropships need to resupply ammo in addition to armor from the same station at those distances. Edit: We either need a wide berth bubble resupply system or some modicum of air-traffic control light indicators. Multiple dropship entering the same airspace without guaranteed communication abilities is going to equal unnecessary frustration for pilots.

On a side note the new Gallente research medium socket modules place supply depots in the darnedest places for pilots to reach, (i.e. on small platform buildings) making ground landing quite tricky especially when you are low on armor to begin with. Devs, please increase the count of supply depots and place them near friendly, easy to navigate landing zones.

Nguruthos IX PEN 15 CLUB 2259	Posted - 2013.11.20 06:43:00 - [7] - Quote all along Ive been told hovering a DS was the antitheses of a good pilot Now we have to stop every 1 minute and fly back to a predictable spot for more ammo, Which won't even exist in Ambush and so no flying there. (mean while infantry get all the Hives they need to keep alive) But now I get to line myself up for easy Nades, buffed Large Rails that could already 2 shot most DS, forges, swarm spam and friendly tanks colliding because the range is terrible and you nearly have to be on the ground Noob dropships flying into you when you're restocking because you both have to be within 2 feet of the depot. Does ccp ever give DropShips anything other than an after thought? Seriously just remove them till you're ready. Ill come back and test the game in 4 years when you have racial stuff and more than 3 vehicles. When you actually give pause to think about how huge changes will affect pilots When your idea of an update consists of content to spend SP on, and not stretching out current content and scaling future content beyond comprehensible SP costs. Can you imagine what it will cost to be a hybrid shield-armor DS pilot with one dropship and one jet? What's it gonna be 60 mil SP? Lol yeah. Don't think that'll fly.

However, that's a mixed bag because taking out turrets eliminates seats. So the best dropship pilots can be are gimped reconnaissance taxis.

Jadek Menaheim Xer Cloud Consortium 410	Posted - 2013.11.20 16:27:00 - [17] - Quote Anyways...I would suggest CCP develop a small socket single landing pad along the lines of what Jadu was getting at. I'm sure this has been brought up elsewhere. Landing pads themselves would be large variations of supply depots that once docked with would begin repairing, replenishing ammo, and even giving stat buffs with a cool-down timer. Lastly I would like to see these landing pads become activated CRU, when a dropship is docked, immediately spawning mercs into the dropship either through smart deploy or selected deploy.

I rather like to think theres not gonna be any CRU's to get your ammo & repairs from, Tankers have been klling resuply points for 10 months now, my bet is we will see allot of forge guns at the start of a game.

Just something seen along the lines of current nanohives. And on a side note, CCP should eliminate the hardener animation for gunners.
