How am I supposed to fly a Dropship which is what i specced into when as soon as i take off I get shot out of sky with 2 shots from a railgun from god knows anywhere? I played for 5 mins and quit which is about the only thing i can do besides running starter gear because I spent all my point in Dropships but thats not why I want to play this game. I didn't just jump in and fly off, I did what I usually do which is help capture a few objectives and make sure there where no railguns up as best as i could and when it looked safe enough and seemed like my team was progressing I called in Assault Dropship and boom do it went from a Tank with a railgun or a railgun turret from across the map. This is getting old. |

The plight of the ADS pilot in 1.7. It takes some batshit crazy flying to avoid being hit.

It doesn't help that now LITERALLY every single player in DUST has essentially free, highly effective, low risk, high reward AV in the form of SP free militia tanks with rails
The redline only further agitates the problem.

Its just so depressing when one of mine gets shot down because of that. I'ii own up to one going down because I get to carless do to not activating a module or not watching where im going becauseasyou know as pilot we have a tone of things to watch out for. But it seems that all the things you can do to prevent yourself from getting shot down doesn't matter because it only takes a few secs. Im not saying every match is like this but its more bad then good and you'll go broke quick. |

i was a pilot for a long time and currently have an ads alt and a tanker subclass on my main. there will be matches where someone counters you hard and there is absolutely nothing you can do about it and there are matches where you will rule the skys unopposed. so it goes.
tankers that shoot at ads and ds pilots seem to be in the minority though. time and time again I see derpy tanks ignoring each other and other vehicles to shoot infantry.
GÇ£Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for I am dampened.GÇ¥

Yea thats what I try to do but I'm not very good and fps and usually prefer the vehicles in games mainly but i sometimes use a medic like class. But to me it gets old and frustrating being forced to do something you don't really want to because of unfair conditions. |

PS: Thanks for posting this. From one assault dropship pilot to another, the fact that your dissatisfied after you spent your suit re-spec SP all on dropships made me laugh.

Yeah thats the only thing really that I'm interested in putting them in because like I said before I'm not very good and fps and if the ever refund the SP for Dropships I would put them all back in to Dropships again. |

Its a shame tanks we not mentioned in any dev blogs or the patch notes; even though after 1.7 was deployed CCP said they would be looking to change some of the mechanics in the next patch....... >.<
