I wasn't part of that, but it has happened to me as well. It is unfair to call out Zion for this, when other corporations are also doing this as well.
My thought, when this happened to me by other corps - I'll spawn at the home base instead. |

First time it has ever happened to me to where I couldn't spawn at all. I thought it would be some other corporation because I had some respect for Zion TCD.

Reminds me of times of other builds. Are you 100% certain Zion was flying both DS? I ask because Zion is often top of the boards. Also, JAQ13 is not a DS pilot or gunner - he likes grenades. :) |

I don't know about both, but at least one. They were the only people with kills on their team.
Which map? |

The spawn point on that one is broken. It's open on both sides with litle to no cover like the other maps. One DS could have covered both sqawn points on either side.
First rule I learned my first week in game back in May: start running while on the load screen.
Not saying what happened to you was justified. |

Not saying what happened to you was justified. I started resorting to locking on to the dropship before I jumped from the MCC, then once I got out of the shield, launch the swarms. And repeat.
Smart!

Also OP I am pretty sure you wouldn't pass up a chance to redline someone in the gunners seat of a drop ship.
Why anyone expects other players to not use the mechanics ccp gave us (flawed and all) is beyond me.
I hate getting killed by ds missile spam just as much as the next person but acting like you are disappointed that a corp or merc would do such a thing is just stupid.
I don't get into dropships anymore. I think they are cheap and unfair. Whenever I redline someone, I at least have some courtesy and don't keep them from spawning.
Your are entitled to your opinion. As for redlining in general, all is fair in love and war. I agree with Free Bears on that.
Does it suck that the DS camped you? Yes. Has it happened to me? Yes. Do I complain? No - for the reasons that Free Bears gave.
That having been said, I admire your attempts to break it - many people crawl into a fetal position. |

In honesty, when this happens to me, I am more pissed at my team than the other guys. It's probably a good thing that friendly fire isn't on yet... |
