I agree.
It's kinda ridiculous that a less then perfect smooth landing, will result in a ground bounce that will either flip your bird over or just knock out half it's health.
Even if you can pull out a perfect landing, trying to do that in a perfectly quiet map is hard enough, but with enemy AV, vehicles its impossible.
I hope they can fix it, but keep the current flight mechanics, sure it's hard, but half the fun is mastering it. |

Should really look at perhaps making the Knockback lower when we're hit by Swarms
As much as i hate swarms, i disagree with you.
Knock back is the physical consequences of being hit, i really can't argue how nerfing this feature will add anything constructive except make a dropship players life easier, yet doesn't address the real problem.
Collision mechanics and the explosive resistance of the armour/shields of the Dropship.
This needs to be sorted out, if we can not land to drop troops off or to repair how can we hope to keep it in battle or reward a player for risking all the isk to field this war machine? Or the fact that it's hard to find anything useful to modify the dropship to counter the anti-air threats. Since the limit of the map, prevents the use of the terrain for cover. |

So you can adjust the speed better
I know this sounds like heresy, but i like the controls.
Getting quite good at it, in fact.
I really have no problems with the controls of the flight mechanics, its just the landing, the frigging landing, without damaging the ship or making it bounce....
