Even if I agree with everything on this matter about the rail gun, I must say my grimsnes is quite hard to take down even for a rail tank. However it has no guns fitted at al butt crasy reps/armor/hardness/shieldbost/afterburner.
The counter is many time not to fly strait up I fly low/fast and slalom around buildings. It workes as I want it a armor personal carrier ( I but uplinks al over the map also ).
The one thing that that I notice is hovering Assult DP pilots over a point harasing the blues. Then I just fly to a high spot/land call in a rail shoot em down recall tank and fly off into the sunset.
My point is that if you are a aircraft the speed and movement is your best defence, idk sometimes I feel like droship pilots wants to be flying tanks.
With that said rails are still broken, but if they are removed droppships will be OP
Sorry 4 my bad English

Regards And that's one of the OP's tactics in game. I've seen it myself. To hover and harass blues. So I don't understand. Someone found a way to take you out and you're upset about it? I call it due justice. The only thing broken is folks ability to understand that for every action there's a counter action. Don't get mad when that counter happens to you.
Amen to that brother
I am not to botherd with the railtankers. If there is 3-8 sitting on the red line they will most likely losse the match ( to little infantry on the grownd to hack and defend points. I mostley do FW any way and I love the fact that on FW is al about the win. Sitt and snipe in the redline and get your KDR going however you will urn nothing from it.
The problem I c is that's many just want to do ONE thing when playing this game. Insted of filling a role that is needed that match.
C a need fill a need

With that said rails are still broken so anyone who isn't moving 50 mph always dies? the only way to attack is to be still, and air vehicles are the easiest targets of all, even moving fast a AFG hits you.
First rails are broken lets agree on that.
Second the droppships as there is now dont fill the role they should have ( getting ppl in and out of hit spots and support ( if you read the description of em any way.
At some maps they are almost useless due to the size ( to smal maps ) I am stating that the droppship will shine when/if we get bigger maps. Me personally I shine ( in my dp) on that new big map where u have a rail or whatever it is that goes throw the hole map. Again I c other Dp pilots hovering over a point and getting smacked by rails instantly. I on the other hand fly low/fast and constantly moving. I normally survive a hole game on that map when in my Dp.
Idk I just don't want them to be flying tanks. As they can be and they ARE if there is no rails in the game.
Again rails are broken and need to go or have a major overhaul, I suggest the latest.

Regards well piraten ol friend , I wouldn't be 2 shotting your dropships on sight if you weren't going to fly to the highest points and spam uplinks and hives , rail tanks are currently the only thing that stops you from flying your ds to the highest points that are inaccessible by any other means might I add , to spam droplinks and hives as I said. you do this all the tome ant the only counter is to shoot you down on sight plain and simple , I noticed you don't do it any more when your pitted up against me
Yes I take out uplinks al over the dam map to try and win. If there is a good railtanker out there as you'd self I try to adept. I don't cry for a nerf. Actually I not to worried by rails as I stated. I am not to worried about tanks in general to be honest.
And if you read my post further up I just stated that if rails are removed dropships will be OP.
To be honest the only big problem with tankes are the cost I kind of like em as they are even if I find that game style on a personal note boring. However it's AWSOME we al aren't like.

I can't say for certain however I will test this now, but it seems to me dropships are a LOT harder to kill now they they ever were before UNLESS you are using a railgun tank or railgun installation.
I was trying to swarm a DS the other day, the missiles did jack ****, any damage they did do the DS could easily rep. That was compounded by the fact swarms range is pathetic now.
With my forge gun I found that ok I could do reasonable damage but the DS would be long gone as soon as it took the first hit and again, they could rep the damage I could cause.
No to me it seems railguns are the only viable tactic to kill a DS unless the dropship pilot is a total moron.
Spot on my friend. I lose my dropship when I land to ninja hack or put down links. It's almost god mode when in the air. However there is some railtankers that have crasy aim like Pegasis Prime that takes me down regardless. That's player skill noting else.
CCP plz nerf Pegasis Prime he is just a to dam good tanker. =ƒÿä

The same can be said for snipers.
The problem is simple - The redline. We need it for deployment. We need a staging area. Fine. Being able to shoot from the redline without any effective counter is fundamentally detrimental to the game. There is no risk - reward system. They are completely untouchable.
We should be able to use skill and tactics to locate distant threats, outmanoeuvre them and then bring them into a situation where we are rewarded for our clever gameplay by turning the tables on our attackers.
We need a mechanic that encourages players to engage fully onto the field. Perhaps a better reward system or a reduced damage from the redline. To get them out of hiding and make them fair game for all players.
Missed this one.
You kind of nailed it. Remove the red line and lot of the problems are solved. Nothing more fun then to sneak up on a rail rank and put remotes on his fat as =ƒÿä However it can't be done in the redline can it ? =ƒÿñ |
