Today I was trying to kill a drop **** with a standard swarm launcher but those buggers are way too fast so why dont they make a variant of it called anti aircraft swarm that has faster moving missiles or something, with a damage or clip size penalty. |

Because then no one would ever be able to make use of a dropship. I assure you, the existing swarm launchers are plenty capable of hitting a dropship. They hit mine all the time, even when I'm trying to go full speed and get away. |

In the future we will have a device to that slows down vehicles, so to make a speedy swarm would make it so you would not need a webber against drop ships, which i don't think they want to do. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qLlg_IuSBAI&feature=youtu.be&t=22m40s
I have as yet to see a pilot that can keep up avoiding or matching the missle speed in a circle for any extended period of time, but its nice to see some of them back in they skies and giving ppl a hard time.  |

Well than these guys must be using some faster models or something. It's not hard to realize that something is wrong when 5 people with Swarm Launchers try to shoot down one Dropship and constantly fail because the rockets never reach the ship.
It's a problem, it needs to be fixed. Simple. |

I think generally it's fine, but if you can out-maneuver them by flying under pipes, around or even under buildings then you deserve to stay airborne. Most people just crash their drop ships, but if someone can do that, then they have genuine skill. You would have to fight them the old fashioned way with some skill of your own, using a manual aim rail gun or forge gun, or the missile emplacement. |
