Dropship crushing is fine they just need to tone it down a bit.

I take a guess you fly a dropship

once milita vehicles are removed again this problem will fix itself :)

No I pilot a HAV.

when you see a beam of light on the ground around you , like a UFO is landing on you, get outta the way!

Dropship crushing is a perfectly viable tactic. Think about it, if a helicopter pilot is good enough to land smoothly on your head, you're boned. They don't need to make it impossible to crush people, they just need to make it so that dropships take a reasonable amount of damage from nose-diving into the ground, this way, only the Best-of-the-Best will be parking on your head, and it might even look cool when they do it ;)

Im not talking about getting rid of it just making it more dangerous

Its already dangerous. I take them down easily if they come in my aim.

No, I run a HAV and they're not always militia.

There are a few reasons why Dropship crushing is so prevalent in the current build:

1. Free militia vehicles - NOT going to happen in later builds, or post-release.
2. Lack of coordinated teamwork means that you're not being backed up by AV guys against the dropship, AND means that the pilot's struggling to find willing gunners.
3. Wonky turret mechanics mean it's hard to fire where you're actually aiming while in motion, and keeping up movement is important to avoid AV fire.

When these LEGITIMATE issues are fixed, Dropship crushing will be less of a problem.

And a VERY definite NO to the 360-Ü turret idea. That would negate the possibility of landing, which is kind of an important thing for Dropships to be doing.

But what about one 360 turret instead of two 180

You don't even have to worry about dropship crushing and i thought you meant on foot

why, you havent even seen what a fighter can do

I don't, but my team does. And I'm a team player.

Dropships seem more of a ground attack vehicles than fighters( just a guess) and a single 360 turret seems more efficient because the current turrets don't cover the front or back

In my experience (getting attacked by Dropships AND as a gunner for one), you can hit targets in front and behind well enough.

And as I mentioned, a 360-Ü turret would either be useless on top or get in the way of landing.

And as an added bonus, it would make teamwork less important.

Also, Dropships are troop transports, NOT ground attack weapons.

Inertial dampeners don't negate the requirement to land when the pilot is getting out, by the way.

The pilots also have ID's, the armor that functions as landing stilts would keep it from getting in the way, it already doesn't have much of a vertical turn radius, and i didn't mean it as something to dominate the groung just what it already is, something to take out light armoured targets (infantry and lavs)

Also why would they need to get out other than bailing

No idea how pilot ID means a thing in relation to what I was saying. Please explain.

And those "landing stilts" aren't large enough to cover a turret.

And Dropships can already dominate ground targets if they're flown well, but this would reduce the skill requirement to achieve it.

And why would they need to get out? Maybe to let someone else take over piloting, or to switch vehicles (leaving it in the background), or to repair it with a repair tool if there's no armour repper, or it's on cooldown, or if you've lost your gunners and need to capture something, or if you want to speed up the capture process on a critical objective.

Not to mention under-belly turrets on transport helicopters is a stupid design decision and there's plenty of good reasons not to do it in the real world as well. Your gunner would be even more vulnerable than the gunners are now, for one.
