It's really annoying to have a dropship pilot live through the AV onslaught and then not die because they get a 5-10 second "get out of jail free" period.
Tanks don't, LAVs don't, and infantry survive on 0/0. You forget there's decimal points in this game, not flat numbers.
Nope. Confirming that pilot input is not, and never was, valued. - Breakin Stuff

Or, god forbid, pull the Duna route of things and just get out, cloak up, and haul off to call in another.
Why are you assuming we're all like Duna?
As far as jumping out with an HMG, we do that because it's better than the blaster at killing infantry. Fitting smalls on an armor tank isn't at all viable. It's better with the Gunnlogi, but its main barrel can't look down, and the shield hardener makes looking at anything difficult.

Not really

It's a vehicle
and if I somehow manage to take down your dropship that gives you all of that, you can always just bail out and go after me on foot where I will almost certainly be at a disadvantage because I'm running AV.
We get crushed by it in the air half the time. The other 25% of the time we're in the redline, and are practically in the next district.
That is why I get 275+ WP for destroying your Dropship.
There's vehicle damage, and vehicle destruction, possibly the kill, and more if you're a defend objective.
What a silly reply, complaining ignoring that it's a vehicle, complaining that it's a vehicle, complaining that a vehicle has more HP, and dares to say that vehicles do more damage. The best turret we have is the missile; a flaylock has more splash radius and damage than the large, despite it being the size of a human.
Vehicles are the ground iteration of starships. Of course they'll have more HP.

Honestly all vehicles should have an exit timer, no one should be able to pop out of a pilot seat instantly so that might help with the premature e-Pilot-lation. I don't so much have an issue with the whole crashing mechanic, but they should add an overkill mechanic where doing enough damage past 0/0 will cause it to blow up midair, likely catching the pilot mid-eject.
Shouting down someone like children, real nice.
