I imagine possible PVE contracts even....
Is this something that is still being investigated, being actually worked on or now classed as not possible?
Will ask.
WoW has taught me that Purple means Legendary. This means Quafe suits are the optimal loadout for killing all of you.

This is not what you think it is. We are discussing something that was mentioned as "maybe feasible" in fanfest, a target practice setup.
NOT a full-on PvE kill drones game mode.
But I will ask about both.

Alright, straight answer time:
Drones are, unfortunately, not a thing yet because of three issues:
PS3 performance overall (something we're all familiar with)
Navigation: Turns out the Drone AI and the maps we have don't play nice together for various reasons, which I'm not going to go into. I can only give a half-ass explanation because I don't really understand AI programming.
Lastly: Time required to develop around these issues.
If the current Dev team manage some kind of breakthrough on the development of the Drones, I'm pretty sure that they will probably keep it secret from the community for about three or four minutes, tops (I may or may not be prone to exaggeration). It's the kind of thing it seems they'd get extremely excited to announce.
So currently the word is: Drones are not in the cards at this time.
If that changes I will immediately badger, annoy and generally drive people insane until they announce something.
