Flying drop ships and I'm the only one in the ship , I land on some high area to forge or lay some spawns and I attempt to get out of the front since I am the pilot and alone but the actions force me to get out of the back .... why ..???.. I didn't switch seats and I'm using the controller as to be released to the front and that shouldn't be a problem since I am the pilot and alone and did not switch seats , but no I keep being released from the back threw the animations and needless to say I fall and loose the drop ship , the attempt to help my team and my calm nature .

I'm broke most of the time , I'm not like most who post on the forum who have multiple prototype suits and gear , I have no proto suits ... and gear I have some but ... my skill points are into my core , equipment , vehicles and weapons which help me to play my role .

I don't nor have I ever chased FOTM and I have played this game since the beginning of 1.6 until now so it hasn't been that long and I'm the type who believes that my core and gear comes first because placing inferior gear in a proto suit is useless to me .

I don't have much , have a plan and try to stick to it which leaves even less wiggle room . I try not to have skill points everywhere because like now , I have wasted points in places and items that I simply just do not use but had to , to compete at that certain time but now that the game has changed direction so many times in such a short amount of times ... these said items have become useless .

Why is it that these drop ships keep releasing me out the back if the pilots seat is in the front and the places that I land on have enough room to cover the front to the middle of the ship , so if I was even released out of the side I would be safe but the animation still takes it upon it's self to release me out of the back ?

This is just frustrating , like when forging on the ground next to a stationary truck for cover and all of a sudden I become stuck to the front of the truck and have to suicide to be released . Or getting stuck in a crevice that I can't get out of or on a fracking rock for all sake . Getting stuck on a rock ????

How does things like this go un noticed and why does it happen even today ?

I know that this might and should be in the bug report but I just wanted to get some from the general public to get some advice on how to not get released from the back of the drop ship . I have skill in drop ship operations so I'm not using militia and after a while this gets expensive and kills the feeling of even playing this game for me .

Maybe it's by design? For a while, the DSes were running over mercs when they deployed if the DS was moving forward and down. Maybe this is to prevent the pilot from getting run over mid air as they bail from a burning DS. They should change this :)

I read on here a while back the you exit a vehicle at the same point you entered, regardless of what seat you are in. I've never paid attention personally and it could have changed, but that's my thought on the matter.

Not sure about Dropships or HAVs but if your the driver of a LAV you always jump out on the left side.

I've never actually had this happen, so I'm guessing it's what Rizlax said, and the side you get on is where you get out. I'll likely end up testing this later on, it'd be useful for getting up onto certain ledges and such.

Oh, seeing as you use the standard dropships, is there a difference between them and militia, aside from fitting ability? I asked this before, but the only answer I got saying there was a difference was that the militia dropships align themselves.
