O I like the idea of a force drop. The only thing with that is that it is already hard to activate boosters while flying. If they were to implement it, they need to make the activation of such things easier.
I could definitely seeing my team liking this though. Instead of me saying jump and they jump way too late, they can load into the drop queue, I fly over, working to position and I can drop them instantly where I need and fly off to get more troops or wait for more to spawn in if cru is equipped. +1 for a excellent idea.
As far as co-pilot, I am big on that, see my thread on co-pilots, https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=385047
I could see this being a nice co-pilot option to add to team work of a DS.

Even with voice comes (which has a small delay), hearing the call to jump, reaction times, and the latency between the jumper and the dropship, I've jumped out of many a dropship and undershot or overshot the target based on time delays.
You don't even necessarily have to implement a disposable pod. The pilot has a button to activate the doors of the dropship (which don't do anything but block bullets (which only matters when snipers like me are shooting for the gunners XD))
So, change that button to a deploy button. Players have to ready up within the dropship still, but that button lowers the doors and ejects the readied gunners. This would simulated the coordination that real teams have during war for heli-drops and everything.
Let's do this!!
Using square would be great. You would have 4 non gunner spots that can queue up to be ejected. I'm thinking that gunners should not be able to queue up as they are on the guns, they can just manually jump out or switch to non gun if there is a spot. |

Want this. Coordinated drop controlled by the pilot! |
