Only two crew, pilot - no turrets just controls ship.
Gunner - controls the small turret on the nose of the ship like ADS.
Same price as ADS, faster, less tank.
Surely this can be done server-side?

Redundant and not as effectve as ADSs.
Nose turret gunners aren't as good as pilot gunners imo. |

That is why it is a variation, I believe that is exactly why it is called a Scout dropship not an assault dropship.
Also, you may not like it but many people think it sounds awesome.
Never has a aerial gunner in dust been fully protected by the ship.

More effective or not it is cool. Nose gunners would actually be more and less useful, since they would be able to see what the pilot sees, making it easier to know immediately what the pilot wants you to target.
Edit:
Though I think it should probably be cheaper than an ADS.

Yes! It would be a nice piece for anti-ADS more than anything!

I already have a scout DS. It's every DS and me using my mic to share info.
Unless this proposed DS has some interesting scanning bonuses, it's pointless.
What percentile of Dust514's infantry arsenal belongs to the category of machine guns?

i suggested this a while back, but evo it would deffinetly require a client update to add a new dropship hull/hulls to the assets.
i like the idea of a small 3 seater dropship with 2 turrets and a lot of speed/scanning ability. it would be extreamly useful in the sandbox areas ccp has discussed where the maps are larger than our current skirmishes. |

What would make it truly scouty is if it was half invisible in the sky, had no way to scan it. NO turrets. Has a mounted camera like on the helicopters in GTA V and you can mark targets. The level in scout DS increases how long target is marked. Camera has 25% efficiency on cloaked targets. This could be great addition to PC.

I like this. I feel that it should have more slots but less pg/cpu since it's a scout ship. Maybe new mods can be introduced. It could be less scannable than other vehicles. It should be half price of ads though. Since it's not ranked it can easily be shot down so I think it should be cheaper than ads.

I do not think it will take a client update, exactly same hull as assault ds.

Where would the nose gunner sit in the ship? Details Evo give us the deets!

Honestly I like the idea you proposed. However you would have to make the ADS slower to keep it from being a ADS copy. Also I'd propose that the nose turret should be a small one also to avoid making them to incredibly powerful. I'd definitely perk into it since it would really help with dealing with those pesky snipers. |
