I know CCP is working on fixing this for the ground vehicles its it is so difficult to resupply with dropships... Even some of the ones in our redlines are unreachable by dropships...

recall?

I honestly hope they are working on vehicle specific designs for supply depots. I'd be cool if the MCC could resupply dropships.
It makes more sense. The only reason for a ground depot is for ground troops. The dropships would be landing back onto the MCC.

Flying supply depots that supply dropships and are hecked when a dropship is within 20 m of it...

It would be hi-larious to watch all the new derpship pilots bounce off of them and die.

When logi LAVs are reintroduced, I really hope they also being in a module that will allow them to become mobile vehicle nanohives.

Heck with that, I want mobile supply depots on Logi LAV's. I want to walk up to a Logi LAV and switch suits

Dropships (and other vehicles) aren't brought in from the MCC. They arrive from the warbage. The MCC also arrives off the warbarge. |

Couldn't they just put a column above the depot, that you resupply from?

They should look into two things to fix this:
- Create a mobile resupply module that can be fitted onto vehicles like the mobile CRU.
- Create supply depots that deploy on the roofs of some of those towers and other buildings.

Depots just need a wider radius of resupply.
As it stands, on most maps I literally have to be sitting on top of the depot to resupply my dropship. Float just a few inches above it, no ammo, I have to actually touch it to get ammo.

Simplest solution would be for CCP to change the resupply Sphere to a Cylinder that was 50-100 meters tall so that dropships could resupply while hovering over the resupply radius, but still requires them to be low enough to be engageable by Swarms.

I've mentioned putting objectives in places other than at ground level several times.
Give the DS pilots something actually do and battle for.

Its enough of a pain in the ass to resupply with an HAV or LAV, I can't even imagine doing it with a dropship.
The sphere of resupply is really pretty tiny. I'm guessing its using the same radius as the infantry resupply which is very reasonable for infantry, but not so much for large units like vehicles. There are often resupplies *just* out of reach of vehicles, so I think a 50% to 100% increase in the sphere of resupply for vehicles would be appropriate.

90% of all supply depots in friendly redlines on newer infrastructure are inaccessible to havs/lavs.

Yeah its kind of a pain in the ass. I'm cool with the ammo system, it adds a new dynamic to vehicles which is great. But I have to run back to the redline nearly every time I need ammo, and sometimes even then I can't access it. I don't want to be forced to call in a new HAV and recall the old one, workaround mechanics are never a good thing.

Too true, same goes for HAVs/LAVs. Really should increase the range for vehicles. As it stands now most depots are completely inaccessible to vehicles.
I hate using recall as an ammo resupply but it's a necessity right now. If you fix depots I think we could phase out recall (at least the way out works now). |

You know they are working on them? I've been trying to get them to acknowledge that they need changing since they announced that vehicle turrets would have limited ammo supplies. I've become fairly adept and getting my dropship under the deck of the Gallente launch pad structure reload my missiles.
