I've noticed that dropships aren't that interesting, but at the same time powerful. Im a decent pilot, can do some barrel rolls and backflips as most average pilots do, but pilots in DUST need a little more than just getting 7 WP for a transport assist thats completely unknown and no one knows how in the hell you got it, and a Vehicle Kill Assist. Pilots are probably the most underpaid and lesser beings of DUST. Aside than n00bs and transporting troops into enemy territory and to objectives and vice versa, being a pilot does not get you that well rewarded, no matter how many mercs you have transported and allowed them to kick ***. Now, since CCP (for the first time has done something logical) removed the Logistics dropships,Logistics HAVS and LAVS, we are now left with 3 kinds of dropships: Militia crappy dropships, normal transport dropships, and Assault dropships. Now, since Assault dropships kind of suit my idea of having fun in this game, (aside from being bankrupt paying millions of ISK onto restocking expensive dropships) they are a bit nice. But, hypothetically, what if there was a MCRU in your dropship and tons of soldiers would spawn in it? What if you transported troops to the objectives and they hacked it? Even if CCP added that transport assist, it usually does not work and happens at the exact wrong time, sometimes it gives you a transport assist just for one of the passengers getting sniped in your dropship. Not only that, but as you all fellow dust fans know, in the E3 trailer of dust, you would see a dropship flying by and passengers in the dropship using their main weapons to take down enemies. Another thing i would like to add is the possibility of being able to use main weapons (and possibly equipment) while riding in a dropship. Again, i have thought this over, because if there was an assault dropship with a proto missile launcher and people in the dropship repairing it making it a total death fortress allowing not even a prototype forge gun to at least get a hitmarker on the dropship, yes, i agree, that will be a problem. Another thing i am dying to add, is the concept of getting points of people spawning in your dropship. And, also fixing the transport assist so i would not be freaked out by getting warpoints just for passengers in my DS to get sniped by a proto. So, at the same time, i apologize for making quite a long post in the forums, and, i would also wish CCP to look at this topic and possibly take my ideas into consideration. Thanks people.
