So, which kind of controlled substance is your favorite?
Seriously, drop ships?!?! Having a dropship is good, but it has plenty of good counters. They rock anytime they take serious hits it seems, and that can send them into buildings. They still take decent damage from AV, especially my mlt forge. And hello, how about fielding your own ADS? He can't fire at ground troops willy-nilly if you're hitting him from another ADS.
Yes, it does take some skill to hit an ADS with your rail turret, whether tank or turret installation. But tanks can be pretty safe from ADS, while the same cannot be said in reverse. (re: Judge's video.)

1. He showed himself shooting at a dropship with a railgun, and failed. That proves it takes at least some practice.
2. Tanks sit in the redline because of the very slow tracking speed, turret speed, and poor turret angles. An ADS has the entire sky, a rail has <1% of it to shoot into. Even in Ambush a rail has to be far back as they can get to compete with an ADS.
3. ADS vs a Railgun Tank? ADS can destroy a tank better than anything in the game. XT-1s are crazy powerful. If it wasn't for the redline, that tank would be a coffin for for a ADS to nail shut.
4. ADSes are dangerous to your team, so they should be destroyed as a first priority.
5. Going back to my OP. If it wasn't for rails, what would stop a ADS from raining complete destruction in a match? In 1.7 I'm seeing ADSes go 30/40-0 in matches constantly. Their is ONE thing that counters your destruction capability and you complain??
6. How many shots miss you and/or do avoid before you finally get shot down? Shooting an ADS that doesn't have a hardener, afterrburner, and is in sight of the <1% of the sky you can patrol is a narrow window to be killed. Perhaps become a better pilot?
Judge's video also had flaws and misinformation, as it was just well structured b*tching and delusion.
1) Never denied that, in fact I agree.
2) Judge's video spends a good deal of time countering the argument that "an ADS has the entire sky", and you provide nothing to counter his argument. Doesn't have to be here, a link would suffice.
3) "can destroy better"...isn't that it's role?
4) Agreed, but as with every other "OP" complaint, it takes teamwork to do. It isn't the dropship's stat's fault people keep lonewolfing off comms.
5 & 6) These comments have a focus on kdr, rather than winning. It doesn't matter if I destroy a dropship or not, if I have driven it out of being relevant to the battle taking place to go off and lick its wounds.
