Eve pilots have been using automated camera drones to spin there ships for many many years now, what if we could ask our good friends at the drone manufacturing specialist to build a remotely controlled flying camera drone (not too unsimilar to the flying spy thing in BF3) might make a nice safe way for scouts to scout ahead and check the terrain ahead.
Thoughts? |

We do have something like that, it's called a mobile command center. |

I'm all for personal drones of varying types, though camera drones would be useful. Make them small, quick, and you have to put your cursor almost on top of it in order to highlight it for your team. I think it would be pretty balanced for the simple fact that you would have to stand still in order to control it, leaving you exceptionally vulnerable. It would also add an extra advantage to anyone using stealth modules, since they could toss out a camera drone then go invis and do some safe scouting that way.
Definitely would love to see personal drones though, of just about any kind |

Recon drones would be an valuable asset. With limited range I see no problem here. +1 |

I'm actually kind of against this, because my experience in other games with things like this is it forces a player to basically stop playing the game to use it. That said I'd have two suggestions if this is done:
1) Make it automatic, have the player launch it, tell it where to go (maybe by placing waypoints) then have it fly itself. This way a player isn't taken out of the game to use it.
2) Allow the other team to hack it. We're going to have Electronic Warfare in the game eventually if I understand correctly. So, let the other team be able to hack your drone. They could either take it over, or feed it false information (have it show enemies that don't exist, or not show ones that do).
That's my .2 scents... |

Something to add with a drone that someone could use for more tactical view of teh area. A picture in picture of the drones view for squad members.
Something like that would be awesome.
Me and a corp mate had done something similar in BF3 where he'd use the MAV to fly around and i'd watch he's LiveStream to us it for a tactical view above my character in the field.
It was simply AWESOME! If these UAV's make it to the game and the pic in pic doesn't i'm sure smart players would use the same idea i just stated. |

the reason i say camera drones is because camera drones already exist in the eve universe so it could make a possible enterence in dust |

+1 for camera drones. Especially when the scale of the game increases, all the intel we can get is better intel. |
