Only give us a price reduction for the hull and we are happy.

And for all of you complaining "We are too squishy!"

Just be happy you have the ADS.
Also something with capable fire power and agility shouldn't have high overall eHP

Just be glad you have it.

Dropship's shouldn't even have had that frontal turret in the first place to begin with. It was added as a temporary replacement for all of us asking for our jets. But it seems we aren't getting them any time soon and the ADS is being used more for Attacking rather than support.

Even if the Assault Dropships has it's name "ASSAULT" it straightens to far away from the Dropship's original purpose which is troop transport.

They have made dropships roaming slayer vehicles that are based on hit and run tactics.

Dropships where supposed to be mobile troop transport vehicles and Mobile spawn platforms. This would improve the entire gameplay of DUST as you can have more mobile spawn platforms that allow the red-lining to be less of an issue. aswell as moving entire teams out of the red-line to more competitive parts of the map.

Dropship pilots where supposed to get rewarded for picking up troops from a captured point then moving them quick. Keeping the battlefield continuously exciting and evolving.. Instead of the constant stale mates that happen now.

Dropships where supposed to be that static sight in the sky that give full time legitimacy to full time AV mercenaries.. Allowing something they can engage always.. But with the Straight up burst alpha damage that dropships have today and with the lack of any meaningful defense to sit there and provide support to troops, or not being able to have a meaningful gunfire exchange with AV specialists before having to completely run for your life. We have made dropships into fighters essentially.

The entire purpose of tank modules on the dropship was to allow them to stay in the air and have some persistence... Not to give Turrets on Dropships extreme killing potential and be forced to have dropships paper thin to balance it. It's assbackwards concept and makes no sense.

The only thing to compensate for the Assault Dropships is that they are a glasscannon. Make them any more resistant to AV and you'll have un-killable air machines that desemate both infantry and vehicles in seconds (I'm looking at you Python with XT1's!)

Even today, if you are in a squad and using the ADS and take a Forge round or Swarm volley, you can just hit your afterburner and shoot straight up to the flight ceiling where nothing can harm you (except Null Cannon missles... if you get in their way) while you order your squad to hunt down the threat.

And when the price reduction comes and the HP buff arrives, I can tell you all that we will see far more ADS in the sky than now.

Infantry will call for a nerf. And CCP always hits hard with the nerf.

TL;DR

Reduce price only for the ADS without touching it's eHP

It's a glasscannon so it's supposed to hit hard but be weak

If (when) the HP buff and price reduction comes more ADS will plague the sky with will make infantry call out for a nerf

Dropship's are to supposed to be for troop transportaion while the ADS was supposed to be for support but it is being used as a primary form of Anti-Infantry and Ant-Vehicle

Maxed out Python skill plus XT1 missiles can decimate anything in seconds

I am also a ADS pilot. But I don't want to see them turn out to be the most hated vehicle in the game post-charlie.

Choppers don't have weapons? Only jets?

Dropship is a chopper.

I don't need the buff to perform well. And invisible swarms aren't that big of a problem to me. They have locked on to you. if they are coming from behind, you'll never see them. The only way to escape them is by flying away from them. This excuse would have an arguement if Swarms were dumbfired but they aren't. Once a swarm locks in. You can only escape the by flying away. Do I agree it needs fixing. It's not really an excuse. Invisible forge I agree. And it can be fixed. But this doesn't justify the buff. We ADS are a glasscannon.

If you don't wipe the ADS out easy or at all, Its because the pilot is good. They have their counters & every pilot has many things to worry about in the air. As far as Rendering & Invisible Forges & Swarms & Collision -- They are my only concern. But still yet whether those problems persist or not, It will not really effect my overall performance. Will I feel more at ease with those problems fixed? Yes, However, They are not serious changes as to DMG -- CPU/PG output are more sensitive to the game.

It's like 1.7 all over again. If I had my way, ADS & Swarms/Forges would be left alone. I like them where they are. Incoming Wir-Swarms means GTFO. Also, If I were CCP, I would focus more on tanks -- Specifically Rail Tanks. A red flag is the fact a Militia Railgun can out DPS a Particle Cannon. I find no logic in that -- Must be fixed. I believe HAVs deserve SP-pricey skills to increase Range/RoF/DMG. That way, Someone who has spent 20m+ SP & 500k on war machines would be a superb force. Chances are unlikely to be wiped out by a militia grade HAV with bare minimum or null SP investment. However, This is another thread of its own & I'm sure this has been ranted on time & time again. ADS already has these types of skills except Range which is not needed. However, With these skills maxed with SP investments, You can clearly tell a difference of vehicle performance. My vote still stands for ADSs to be untouched. 30% Fit, 70% Skill is how it will always go. If you deliver an OP ADS/HAV fit into the hands of a moron then you can count on kissing that fit goodbye. Which is how it should be. The Weather Man, Making sure the skies are clear.

They are in a good place now, adding 500 more shields to a python will tip the scales against the fg v dropship engagement. Its good right now but this would give pythons the advantage which it shouldn't have. My gunner dropship has 2508 shields, 3008 wouldn't be nessasary. Logibro was talking about EM swarms and antidropship swarms, but said they wouldn't be coming with hotfix charlie. Depending on how those worked the dropship might need some extra shields but not before. Solo fit pythons will have an incredible tank with 500 more shields In my opinion the shield buff shouldn't happen at the same time they are changing swarms. Shouldn't even be considered. Based on how swarms preform after charlie discuss with av players about anti dropship swarms and introduce EM swarms and then consider giving dropships more HP based on that info with some pilot/av input.
