If we arent supposed to use our handheld weapons from a dropship then why can the pilot open and close the doors while flying? Common CCP allow us to use our guns/equipment from a dropship. That would allow for much more aireal gameplay and it would mean teamwork would be encouraged. Just let us have some fun. Plus it would make hunting down tanks easier cause appearently the community has too many issues with the current tanks.
Basically instead of nerfing tanks just buff dropships in that regard to allow the usage of light/heavy weapons+equipment usage from inside of it (reptool usage from inside of a dropship). But there should be one drawback to it and that is when a dropship hits 0HP it should explode in mid air killing all passangers instantly.
Oh and if you are curious how to open/close the dropship doors just hit X on your dualshock 3.

I was not aware that the X button did that.
However, given the amount of rage that resulted from the previous state of Assault Dropships, I don't even want to know how much rage we'll be drowning in if players can fire their weapons from a Dropship.

ADS rage was only there because of excessive skill stacking on turrets. Which turned small rails into blasters. Same thing applies to small missiles. And if you put 6 people into a single dropship then it should take at least 3-4 swarmers to take it down cause you are fighting against a full squad.
6 people/full squad=
1 pilot
3 min logis with reptools
2 gunners

I've always been against it, but on second thought, I would like to see it attempted.
Why? because I doubt anyone will be able to hit anything anyway.
Just no swarms- that would be overpowered, not to mention dangerous to the user to fire inside a vehicle.
Come to think of it, why doesn't the swarm launcher have a back-blast?

Cloud, this is not a good idea. Given how much regen you can get just from a single armor repper on your fit, having rep tools able to be used on the Dropship from inside it would basically make them invincible.
Keep in mind I'm not some aircraft hater. As someone who used to have 2/3 of my lifetime SP sunk into aerial vehicles, I don't see how this could result in anything other than infantry feeling like they can't fight back once again.
I mean, imagine a Myron with a pair of Assault Forge gunners on one side and a Small Railgun as the turret. You could paste tanks in seconds with that kind of setup and even do it from high enough altitude that fighting back would be nearly impossible.

Just think about that for a second though, 3 min logis each with a core focused rep tools is 453.75hp a second, and that's just from the logi's and there's room for one more min logi. Then you've got forgers, you could drop one of the logi and have a forger on both sides... not going to be pretty.

Doors are useless. They open and close by themselves and passengers just teleport inside anyways. |

So? its fire from 3 payers focused on 1 vehicle. On the other side you could just get some swarmers and take down the dropship. Another thing is firing a forgegun from a moving plattform would be extremely difficult. It allready is near imposible to hit anything with a small railgun once the dropship moves. Skill weapons like forgeguns would be insanely hard to handle.
