People been barking up that tree since the beta, the devs acknowledged it maybe once then made no actions towards it. A guy can dream though right?

Obviously their would be restrictions to it, ie. no heavy weapons from the seats, no ADS, hip fire spread is increased drastically....but you can switch to your sidearm while in the passenger seats

Limit the weapons that can shoot out to light and sidearms. A LAV with a swarmed and a railgun would be an awesome death machine to tanks.

Ugggghhhhhh my head
I just had a flashback to pre 1.7 when my Compressed Particle Accelerator Gunnlogi was getting chased around by a logi LAV with two Proto swarmers in it. They OB'd me twice and resorted to this tactic when I didn't die from the OBs.
Ten long minuets of running for the life of my 1mill isk investment -_-

Even a Dropship with 3 Swarmers would pretty much factor eliminate any other vehicle in the game. Yes, it would take 4 people working together but nothing could fight it. Pretty much any tank would die nearly instantly without being able to run from the flying AV machine. Dropships wouldn't be able to get anywhere near it or it would spike them into the ground like a football.
Assault Dropships with missiles get the ire of the forums; how well do you think a normal Dropship with a bunch of Mass Drivers or Forge Guns would be accepted?

This should be implemented into the game without restricions. Dropships can easy be shot down with just a single forgegun and it takes at least 2 guys working together and not just the "1 man tank crew". And another thing is the movement from a dropship, its allready hard enough to shot a small blaster from a dropship so regular weapons wouldnt be effective enough.
Other games like battlefield or HALO use this for a long time and it encourages teamwork from the vehicle crew. Like repair slaves on a helicopter or a guy with a stinger/RPG helping to take out vehicles. And you have to remember that infantry weapons run out of ammo pretty quick. So the dropship would need to land regulary to allow the infantry to resupply.
So now look on the weapons that would work or wouldnt:
-AR weapons (rail rifle, combat rifle etc.) would have massive accuracy issues cause a dropsip is not really a steady plattform to shot from
-Forgeguns would aswell only work with the hold charge variant and even then the pilot has to steady it
-mass drivers seem to be a very decent weapon from up high however as some people noticed you can kill yourself with the small missiles inside a dropship. Which makes it a risky choice and ammo limitations.
-swarm launchers would be the number 1 choice for going AV cause the dropship can move at high speed while the swarm lock on box is big enough to compensate for that. However ammo is again a limiting factor. Without spending more SP you only get 1 clip to reload. Which would require constant landing for resupply.
-Sniper rifles dont work, you need a to stand still to get reliable shots.
If you dont believe me about the AR part then go and try to kill somebody with a small blaster on a dropship. It is really hard to keep tracking when the thing moves.

There was a thread about this that got to an obscene amount of feedback and ran from. Closed beta till about two months ago
It needs to be implemented.... I'd even settle for only hip fire out of vehicles
It would make lavs more than just murder taxis....they could effectively hunt tanks with a forge gunner and a small rail turret....dropship using this tactic would be sitting ducks because of trying to stay stable for the gunners but could deliver a BIG punch.....tanks would be knocked back a notch because of new effective ways to kill them....
What's wrong with more tactically sound alternatives???
What's wrong with having dropship battles that are awesome to watch....imagine space pirate ships...forge gunners could destroy the ship or you could use mass drivers to kill the enemy gunners
What's wrong with making lavs really worth speccing into instead of just being taxis?
Sure there would need to be balancing but let's look at it this way....dust isn't getting a lot of the public spotlight....new cool ways of destroying stuff would most definitely make great YouTube videos and get some new players
I say the pros outweigh the cons

A LAV with Flaylock passengers and a small rail
Or a missile ADS full of MDs
Well, if they do expect more drive-bys. Oh so much fun to be had.
