6. Players would rather get/spawn in a dropship than hoof it on foot.

Anything else is cheese and whistles and not needed.

If you think this game has ANY need for a dropship doing nothing but taxi'ing people, then you play FAR less than I already assumed you do.

The fact that you say you want them to be glorified taxis, but you don't want them to have a survivability buff (dropships still need to be able to be shot down) means that you not only don't understand the intricacies of actually ******* surviving in a dropship, you have no ******* idea what role they should fulfill within this partially completed game, and are a literal cancer on the game.

Hey guys, we totally want you to fly into enemy territory surrounded by AV to get your troops from A, 10 feet over to B. We know you're an assault craft with a personal weapon designed to kill troops, but really just take those guys 10 feet over there. And since we as AV can't collectively scratch our own assholes without self guided missiles, we're not actually going to give you much of a buff because then you might actually survive while doing nothing but moving people 10 feet to the left.

And if we did give you that health, and then you proceeded to use skill to outwit halfwit AV players such as many on the CPM itself, we will then cry so ******* hard you'll be left as the crippled LAV of the sky.

This only highlights your ignorance to the issues at hand then. I don't want an effing gunship I want a amarr damned dropship. Dropship first everything else is bells and whistles. Mind you have I have played a version of dust where dropships by themselves where a massive power multiplier and I am not talking about Judge's ADS. The exhilarating feeling of dropping a whole squad on folks into the hotspots and providing CAS and calling out targets being their UAV spotlighting enemies. Parking in front of the enemy line of fire to provide cover for escape and chasing tanks down into cover. Those days long gone. True that model of dropship had 2 problems one was that swarms never can hit them second being they didn't take to much damage in situations where they should have.

"I don't want an effing gunship" Wow, I'm really happy the Assault Dropship wasn't designed specifically to be this, what with it's front mounted gun, reduced passenger capacity, and original (and current if not majorly neutered) bonus to BEING AN EFFING GUNSHIP Secondly, you mention wanting an Amarr Dropship. And you call ME ignorant of the issues at hand. You want a dropship yet you refuse to acknowledge that CCP has FAILED to deliver a game in which the need for a drop oriented ship is required. Case in point, 3 of the 4 game modes literally have no need for a drop focused role (Ambush, Acquisition, Domination), and many of the Skirmish maps are not conducive to a drop focused craft as the points are tightly packed together. In the maps that have 5 points and achieve the minimum size required to a make a drop focused ship desirable, 3 of the 5 objectives are crammed close together, in line of fire of EVERYTHING, and are often indoors where a dropship can't even get to. This doesn't even touch on the fact that we DID have a team, drop focused dropship, that was removed for "rebalancing" only to never be seen again. Dude. Seriously. Stop drinking the ***** cool aid. I now have a real good idea of why Judge rage quit your little circle jerk of a group. Also, you have never once in the history of this game been a relevant DS pilot. Just putting that out there.

Do you mean a proper first person cam, like when going into first person your camera moves in the direction of your turret? Unlike now where it's stuck straight forward? About a year ago CCP Logibro in a random thread said he would look into it, after over a year of asking for it. That was the last we heard of it. It would be a really good offensive buff though, and could even make front mounted rails and blasters potentially appealing anti infantry weapons.
