Seriously CCP? The turrets itself where fine the only thing that made them OP where the bonuses from skillbooks combined with damage mods. Well i go back to blaster cause you can take out infantry with that crap.

well tanks can still use blasters but you do have to remember that dropships had only 1 option and that where missiles. Basically they are now unarmed.

At last ... now there might be a bit of variety to what we get slaughtered by when vehicles deploy.

With any luck they'll now have a range aswell ... to stop the heaviest snipers in the game ... there's enough complaint on here about snipers doing nothing good ... well HAVs half the time are exactly the same hilltop snipers doing nothing good for their team.

Edited : dropships do still need some attention though ... they having a hard time fitting in balanced ... swarms should be able to hit them but not 1 shot at equal ish levels ... and they should have defensive capabilities without becoming gunships (that's what gunships will be for)

variety? What? We have missiles, railguns and blasters. Now 2 out off 3 turrets are not even aible to take on infantry. All what left are blasters. They are good if you can aim and its allmost a insta kill with large turrets. Just wait till we get there where all tankers are using blasters and getting rid off the guys hiding behind hills with swarm launchers.

I cant wait till I can get on and still dominate from the sky. Im thinking this nerf is only going to matter for the pilots who circle the map. I mostly hover and the nerf only means it will take an extra shot or two for my gunners, which would only take an extra second or two.

I could be wrong because I havent tried it out yet but if it works out as i think then only skilled pilots will fly (and survive) while still getting a respectable amount of points. Sure there may be a 25% decrease in the amount of kills but that would still be enough to have a large presence on the battlefield.

Unfortunately I cant test my ideas till saturday

So dropships will now be used to drop people off.

What blasphemy is this?

First of all missiles were just overall OP, Mr. vehicle specialist.

Second of all isn't the blaster meant for infantry in the first place?

So dropships will now be used to drop people off.

What blasphemy is this?

Ok then tell me how are pilots now getting SP/WP? All pilots will probably go 0-0 with 0WP. I would be quite happy if you would get rewarded with like 25WP for every spawn in your dropship (or any other vehicle that has a mobile CRU) but no we dont get that cause only drop uplinks have this feature which is bollocks.
