Grit Breather BetaMax. 660	Posted - 2012.07.16 17:39:00 - [1] - Quote This is a curious issue. While it's not currently possible to fire while riding a dropship, this E3 2012 screenshot seems to suggest it will be implemented (maybe in August?). http://www.dust514.com/media/screenshots/e3-2012-screenshot-08/ I do hope that does happen. Would be quite cool.
RolyatDerTeufel D3ath D3alers RISE of LEGION 1648	Posted - 2012.07.16 17:41:00 - [2] - Quote I would love that. or even if my merc would actually turn around when i move my camera to look inside the dropship. but the latter is not really usefull except making Fan Videos when NDA is lifted.

Not sure how accurate you can be from a moving ship but it would be nice to be able to chuck out a grenade at the capture point before jumping out to secure it

You CAN turn around while riding a dropship. The 2 gunners can't but the other 4 mercs can do a full 360.

JAG ONE 97	Posted - 2012.07.16 18:18:00 - [6] - Quote in the E3 2011 trailer they show all this implemented.. so not sure what happened since then? E3 2011 Trailer

Ten-Sidhe Osmon Surveillance Caldari State 414	Posted - 2012.07.16 18:43:00 - [8] - Quote I would love to ride in the back of a dropship with my advance swarm and 2 complex damage mods, probably work better then the door guns. Especially if I could put a nano hive on the floor. They seem to fall through the vehicles, except the mcc standing on top with nano shooting at far side worked fine. The time I rode on the turret of a Sagris with a swarm to hit dropships only lasted till I needed ammo, the nanohive passed right through the hull to deploy on the ground. I will have to try riding on the roof of a dropship with swarm sometime.

I'm not saying it wouldn't be, I was just pointing out that CGI trailers don't show that something has been "implemented"

But it's good for us to tell them we'd like to see that
Rhadiem Algintal Core Gallente Federation 496	Posted - 2012.07.16 19:14:00 - [12] - Quote If they can snipe you out of the dropship, then definitely you should be able to shoot out of it also. 2 gunners, 2 fat men with FC's and 2 proto swarm launchers would be some serious firepower.. and a whole lotta kills for any AV guy out there who could take it down. It would be like a kills/SP pi+¦ata.

Ender Storm Amarr Templars Amarr Empire 50	Posted - 2012.07.16 19:28:00 - [14] - Quote I think that both firing forma dropship as well as killing dropship ocupants should be implented. That would be more realistic and fun, even if for the lolz and spend ammo in a total non accurate way. Also, we infantry guys coudl maybe score a ikill or 2 by fireing at the dropship and killing its occupants.
counter logic BetaMax. 42	Posted - 2012.07.16 19:29:00 - [15] - Quote This would be fine as long as they do not let Heavy weapons (forge guns HMG) to be fired from the drop ship bay.

Are you kidding? They're inaccurate NOW. They would be pretty useless (unless you want to just let it rain...) from far away and moving erratically. Let them waste bullets.
