When you drop uplinks, you drop them a little bit in front of you. I sometimes drop them facing a wall in order to conceal them, because if I dropped them with my back to the wall they would protrude around the corner and be likely to be seen and destroyed. An example of this is the little holes in the walls of Alpha on Highlands a.k.a. the train map.

Doesn't that apply to basically all of the mechanics in the game?
There is barely anything that you can figure out on your own, outside of the actual FPS mechanics. Drop uplink direction is rather intuitive compared to some of the other stuff.

Oh and don't get me started on those scumbags who spawn in on Ambush and the first thing they do, before drawing breath is drop an uplink... I seriously hate those guys.
Blame the 150WP minimum in conjunction with potential protostomping.
It's an insurance policy. In fact, the protostompers themselves suggest throwing random drop uplinks in Ambush to get the minimum.
Because, apparently, Dust is designed to incentivice the sabotage of your own team for personal gain.
I guess it is a bit of an EVE thing to do. |

You can reduce the distance you toss them by looking at your feet.

You may not care, but I was pretty stoked about it.

Really, sounds like a Troll, since I'm a scrub and killing me doesn't even take any skills... But whatever, you're welcome! |

I get excited whenever I see a forumer in battle.
