Are you seriously telling me that you can take down a well-piloted shield dropship using AV?
- Swarms can be tanked and regened in seconds
- AV grenades, it's a miracle if you can hit them, doesn't do much if you do
- Flux grenades, it's literally impossible to hit unless the pilot is asleep
- Plasma cannons, just lol
- And best of all, forge guns CAUSE ZERO DAMAGE IN 1.8 (tested on both Dren and Gallente sentinel)
A dropship can easily get above any tank that's in the field and missile them to death. The only real counter was redline rail tanks, which have now been nerfed hard.
If you're still managing to regularly lose dropships I don't know what to tell you.
Umm, I hate to say this, but I've got a squad buddy of mine with a Cal Commando running sniper and swarm launchers and he single handily taken down 2 pythons in the first match he tried it on. Next match Gorgons and vipers went down pretty quick as well, grims and whatever-the-name is taken down just as quickly. I don't know what matches you've had, but some good-level dropship pilots are once again being taken down by swarms. And forge guns do not cause ZERO damage. The Assaults are glitched, but other variants work just fine. AV grenades I can agree with, but a "lucky" shot from my plasma cannon has almost always pushed a dropship so hard that it flies into a building, another dropship, or just plain-old ground. |

1) Pics or it didn't happen
2) A clean shot from a PLC should knock anything around, you deserve it if you can pull it off.
3) "Good" pilots do not lose 2 dropships to swarms in a single match unless they are really drunk or something.
First off, #1 let me get right on that with a sh**y phone pic or getting a video capture card. 2nd, true, and I've gotten surprisingly good with plasma cannons so see you soon i guess, and #3 he was pissed, a proto user of Nyan San and advanced level swarm launchers. 1.8 seems to have "accidentally" boosted them.

- when you quick swap from cloak to weapon it does not always work which gets you killed for the wheel selection is to slow and I found it is sometime delayed and in a fight you get the wrong selection
- you can not uncloak or cloak when running, problem or design?
PROBLEM FOR CCP
TO FIX
A large problem I've had recently. Even if I am not cloaked and I switch at a Supply Depot to another suit, i lose all hearing as if I was cloaked. Of course I'm not (the bullets can still see me), but I lose my sound and it drives me nuts. I've tried swapping to a dozen other suits but it doesn't fix, I've literally tried waiting it out as a sniper for the rest of the match (no luck). The only thing that actually fixes my sound is to either A) die or B) switch back to a scout with cloak, cloak, decloak and then die.
Sincerely,
Your Multi-purpose Everything User
