Mobius Kaethis Molon Labe. Public Disorder. 1141	Posted - 2013.12.29 11:06:00 - [1] - Quote This was an issue back in closed beta and CCP dealt with it by making impacts between dropships and anything highly destructive. Bouncing dropships are becoming an issue again. This is a totally bullshit tactic since an impact that is fast enough to catch a merc on the ground should be hard enough to ruin the dropship. As it currently stands though the dropships take almost no shield damage when smashing people. CCP bring back the massive impact damage against dropships. A pilot who has no gunners, and isn't flying an assault dropship, can use a smash the merc move but such piloting should come at a huge price to their vehicle. Stop this idiocy before it really gets going again. Fun > Realism
Kallas Hallytyr Skullbreakers 212	Posted - 2013.12.29 13:22:00 - [2] - Quote I disagree. I landed my Python the other night, a little rough but I've slammed nose-first into buildings much harder, and it just exploded. No enemy interaction, not an especially noteworthy landing but just a straight up death and loss of half a million ISK because....because.

BL4CKST4R WarRavens League of Infamy 1450	Posted - 2013.12.29 18:23:00 - [4] - Quote I don't know the name of the map but in are 4 large towers that snipers and forge gunners love, specially since it surrounds objective B. I love taking a dropship there and squishing everybody. Those that do survive either get pushed of or shot down.

Alena Ventrallis The Neutral Zone 413	Posted - 2013.12.29 20:56:00 - [6] - Quote Keep it as it is. You want to be on the tower, better look out for dropships.
ladwar Death by Disassociation Zero-Day 1936	Posted - 2013.12.29 21:22:00 - [7] - Quote lol so the OP got crushed? thats probably one of the lowest kills rates in the game right next to deadly flux bug and spawning bug that placed you deep in the redzone. even overheated weapons deaths are more common. no this should stay even might lower the crash damage scale a tad. Level 2 Forum Warrior, bitter vet. I shall smite Thy Trolls with numbers and truth not looking for a corp, don't ask.
Artificer Ghost Bojo's School of the Trades 874	Posted - 2013.12.29 21:37:00 - [8] - Quote I dunno if you've TRIED to crush someone with a dropship, but it's not as easy as people make it look. If you were wither dumb enough OR he was good enough to manage to crush someone with his clunky piece of metal, he deserves that kill. Throughout my entire piloting life, I've only managed to crush 5 people (That is, after beta). ~Art, CEO and Director of Educations at Bojo's School of The Trades, Co-Founder of the Learning Coalition

Throughout my entire piloting life, I've only managed to crush 5 people (That is, after beta). I must disagree. Powering into a landing is not hard. Most pilots try to not crash. These guys are intentionally landing on people at high speeds. This needs to wreck their DS. Think about it like a helicopter pilot. If a helicopter pilot were to come down hard enough to smash a person who is trying to actively get out of the way then they will wreck their helicopter. Similarly A DS pilot who does this should wreck their DS. Simple. Fun > Realism
We are 138 Subdreddit Test Alliance Please Ignore 482	Posted - 2013.12.30 02:57:00 - [10] - Quote I say keep the ability to squish. I particularly love it in FW when some jackass shoots my drop ship because I won't wait 20 seconds to let him in....... So I squish them. F U infantry you just want to randomly shoot my guns and steal my derpship ,,I,,

Fire of Prometheus DUST University Ivy League 2454	Posted - 2013.12.30 03:01:00 - [11] - Quote If I land my dropship on someone...then you need to lay attention because seriously? You didn't notice the large dropship I slammed into the ground in front of you, then beside you and then roll over in front of you 30x? Proud member of the Commndo 6 <3 Commando AK.0

An improvement:

Mobius Kaethis Molon Labe. Public Disorder. 1146	Posted - 2013.12.30 05:22:00 - [14] - Quote I have several corp mates who can and do. I have pushed for an end to this dirty tactic in my corp but we will see. I do not personally fly DS. Fun > Realism

CommanderBolt ACME SPECIAL FORCES 543	Posted - 2014.01.06 10:52:00 - [16] - Quote I had fun doing this a few days ago. I think all match I only managed to squish 3 people but even then every time it took such delicate manoeuvring to pull off. Do you even realise how difficult it is to do this now? Oh and by the way I lost a lot of militia derpships along the way so I think this is a total non issue.
