No IMHO you shouldn't get points for a CRU. Yes, Dropships are a TEAM asset. Dropships shouldn't be an easy meal ticket for the terrible shot. It should however reward players who have taken the time to get good. Logistic ships DO reward you. The previous drop ship let me just arse about constantly. New one IMHO is working as intended.
i know you dont like me too much but i actually must say you nailed it in this post
dropship are useless to a useless 1 day old pilot.. the things actually take skill to fly now, the role is not for everyone
i'm a pretty useless pilot atm but it won't last forever.. I will fly the dam thing good again soon enuff |

I disagree with them not being a problem in the previous build, but the root cause of the problem WASN'T a need for the Dropships to be nerfed, and with the fixed spawning and other improvements that made squishing players more difficult, the nerf is unwelcome - and this is coming from a career AV guy, NOT a Dropship pilot. Well the price tag alone fixes spamming. AV grenades combined with price increases fixes crushing of attentive players (most of my crushes have been unattentive snipers and I have had no gunners, unless you count dropship jousting crushing then I have far more kills wresteling hostile dropships into the ground)
This ^^^
it's stupid now to try and crush with the new AV grenades.. i hope those arent nerfed... getting alot of kills with AV nades plus the points for blowing up the vehicle. |

I will fly the dam thing good again soon enuff I'm not at all against needing to have "RL" skill to fly the dropship. Heck, you can go back to my old posts and see many posts talking about it flying like the Desert Combat mod Apaches, which were super difficult to fly. You can't imagine the moaning people whould do about that. But once mastered, they were VERY effective. They rewarded skill invested. The issue here is "are dropship pilots rewarded for doing their job well in SKILL POINTS" and they are barely done this, and not at the level in comparison to the skill points and ISK needed to do the job well. As an example in his post I diagree with, SP for an in-ship CRU should be done, just like they are done for INFANTRY. I believe a player should be able to start out with 2-3 million skill points and make a difference on the battlefield as a Dropship pilot, and earn similar SP to Logistics, Tank drivers and combat infantry. I don't see this being the case.
ok bro my reading comprehension is trash right now. . dont mind me having a bit of alchohol withdrawl combined with the infinate loading screen
i can only agree vehemently with what you just posted we're not getting any SP or on the scoreboard for our role. |
