It was awesome in beta:

It was awesome before 1.4:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=el5nlkLhYVM (only one I could find, watch how I get kills on the feed, unfortunately there is no other uprising footage of dropships with blasters)
Before 1.4, blasters, large and small had a small around 0.5 meter splash, plasma would splash around on impact, damaging hostiles in range. You could get kills from 3rd and 1st person with ease.
After 1.4, the hit detection on small blasters on dropships where disgusting, it was near impossible to get kills. You could not get kills in 3rd or 1st person, maybe 1 in 100 targets
After 1.7, the hit detection is good but because there is no splash, kills are very difficult on aerial vehicles. You can only get kills in 1st person because you need to be accurate to contribute for the lack of ammo and splash
Blasters claimed by IWS are for AV <- wtf?
The current issue is: Why do small blasters have 150 rounds when it has a higher ROF and deals less damage than small blasters? And we need the splash back.
The resolve, I would say small blasters need a 300/400 round clip with 1500/2000 reserve munitions.
And... bring back the splash!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Small blasters got hit pretty hard in 1.7
I loved blaster on a Assault Dropship, but now I can only hit things with a missile turrets.

I agree with the splash damage but disagree with the ammunition increase. Increasing the ammo will make it to easy and make the ammo module pointless and going back to resupply pointless too. |

Good post Evo. Small blasters are worse than having a militia AR taped to the side of the ship. My side gunners, very good players with skills, struggle to get kills often deciding to jump out to take care of a forge gunner then stay on the side gun.
I'm not sure about your ammo counts though. Might be a bit high.

since abandoning tanking and getting all my SP back ive started into dropships, currently just using a gorgon, all i need is a good gunner on the turret and he will go 20/0 30/0 every match, best of all the whole dropships only costs 44k or so
only used missiles and now i know not to use blasters
why you never in dunas channel anymore? :( |

on a side note the PILOT needs to know what his small turrets ammo is currently at as well |

It would be nice to have a better HUD, especially in first person mod.
It easy to keep track of if you are in squad with the gunners, but with a random...it's slightly harder.
