An uplink has no hp, can be dropped by any weapon, doesn't move (except when being thrown.)
A dropship can have decent hp (not an ads) can move freely about the battle field, usually has someone defending it with the side turret.
I'm gonna say that uplink is really looking strong. you know, unless someone gets 300 wp or within melee range.
But in all fairness. The stupidly small maps ruin dropships. What exactly were CCP thinking by making some maps smaller and adding in even smaller ones, when redzoning is already such a problem. |

The biggest problem isn't with Dropships, it's with your squad/team mates not utilizing or not being able to utilize them
People not in turret seats need a better view, should have an option to lean out the window to look around (sacrificing safety for a chance to know exactly where you are.)
Failing that, just give them the same view as the pilot.

It really can't, simply due to the fact that an ADS can focus the gunner down, long before the ADS is at risk of death, which then leaves a slow, empty dropship to contend with.
The other thing is, 3 turrets in an ADS vs 2 turrets in a Dropship. The ADS will plow that ship down in one run.

1st ones to the roof = winners Troop transport. Not "Use a MLT DS to get to this rooftop, abandon it and soam my uplinks all over this place" That's a shameful use of a DS.
So transporting a squad to the roof. Doesn't count as transporting... troops?

All of that renders the DS useless except for a quick elevator trip.
But those glitched rooftop uplinks do make good parking spaces for a dropship >__> |
