Signed
Also, for those saying "just fly a dropship so my buddies and i can swarm you to death long before you reach us, and milk more warpoints", F*ck you!
Dropships, especially for new flyers, are coffins! The controls are difficult even on default, and the price for a new player is pretty high just to watch it go up in smoke repeatedly. You and 6 others are up there with proto AV and weapons with healing hives and ammo, but you advocate he flies up there in militia? Yeah that's fair?!
Hit detection in this game is out right comical, but i'm supposed to have the patience to start sniping lol! Forge guns are effective, but scouts will kill you from behind. I could go back to tank sniping with railgun, but then AVers cry about redline tankers.
CCP needs to change?update the dropship controls to make flying the coroner ship a little more viable for newer players. I gun for one of the best pilots in the game quite often, and even he has a hard time controlling dropships. For new players getting off the ground is difficult, and most pilots can testify to having to dedicate hours, if not weeks, to practicing without being hit.
Swarms are hold R1.....
So can we agree that for a new player clearing the roof isn't as simple. Even for a vet we gotta be on comms to do it. Solo players can't do it without an ADS(Assault dropship) which cost tons more than your MD and Swarm combo. Thank god the minmando no longer has swarm bonus, but that doesn't stop him from equipping them all the same.
The fact of the problem is this is more a dom issue than anything else really, and in my opinion to many of you play dom to camp kills all day.
So Signed also for the petition against dom that is sure to come soon. This roof camping primarily goes on in domination! Some kind of way you've all been trick into getting mass drivered, sniped, and laser rifled in dom all day lol! Play skirm! He can camped C all day, but will lose if he doesn't take another point. In dom there's slim chance of any pilot surviving that barrage of AV coming at him from half the team.
It's a full proof plan with few counters to take a 4 man squad into dom with roof camping commandos and camp open ground with MD's and AV. The nerve of some of you to suggest guys waste isk flying their heads into a wall is absurd.Not to mention as pilot and gunner you can't see the ground/roof troops until you've already been swarmed, forged, railgunned, and scanned lol! There's a serious rendering issue that has existed since Rhadamanthus played, and CCP has yet to fix it.
While I advocate squading up and working together, I also understand that squading isn't always feasible for everyone. We must be fair to solo players, and encourage squading to them as well.
I must say though that I have to agree that roof camping in dom has gotten to be an epidemic, almost as aggrevating as modded controllers.
