Super Cargo Osmon Surveillance Caldari State 428	Posted - 2012.11.05 20:50:00 - [1] - Quote They aren't maneuverable enough and don't do enough damage to tanks. Dust is a rock-paper-scissors game where everything has something it is weak against and everything has something that it's strong against. Right now the dropship can kill troops in one hit, but it can't kill tanks in one hit. Tanks are too good against dropships. The dropship is weak against balance so it's ok.
Icy Tiger Universal Allies Inc. 1026	Posted - 2012.11.05 20:57:00 - [2] - Quote Lol, yeah a drop ship should kill a tank in one hit lololol. Last I checked, it was a troop "drop ship" not a fighter jet.

Yeah, make it so it can one hit tanks. But then it spawns three tanks for every tanks it kills. Also give it ~~!L4Z0Rs!~~ lasers, bloody hate leet speak, that can cave 500 foot craters in the ground every second. But you can't leave out the mutant zombie dog modual that every dropship must have to be complete.

Actually I don't accept the ability to only one shot tanks, how about each missile has the fire power of a death star.

Do you want to know why its "under powered"? Because it is not a gunship. A dropship is something used to get troops in and out of the front lines, as well as provide light support. Later when they add in the "Heavy Aircraft Vehicles", those will be for taking out the tanks. Dropships are simply for troop transport and anti-infantry. Not anti-vehicle.
BobThe843CakeMan BurgezzE.T.F 132	Posted - 2012.11.05 22:49:00 - [13] - Quote on a serious note they are not underpowered they rly are overpowered. You know how hard it is for a tank to kill one. If the dropship hovers above u, u r screwed and the missiles do like 500 damage a shot easy. making them op to everything. Easy fix make them have a damage reduction like a logistics LAV and add more health. You know to were it is a dropship and not a mobile murder unit. Also i personaly thing it should be reduced to 25% damage rather than 50% like a logi LAV. it only makes since its not suppose to go killing everyone.

Logi Bro ZionTCD Legacy Rising 836	Posted - 2012.11.05 23:20:00 - [16] - Quote Yeah...while we're at it, make my small arms fire damage tanks again, but make each of my AR bullets do equal damage of forge gun shots.

No, that's a stupid idea. /sarcasm I was, as they say, trolling this thread. Dropships are the single most OP tactic in this build, if you disagree that's just because you haven't met the guy that has proto-missile launchers that can one-shot heavy dropsuits yet.
