I will do a drop ship tutorial... as soon as it doesn't involve me just flying around in circles lol

Some guys in my Corp told me they had a game against some Dropship pilots with mad skills. It was the 5 objective map with big complex in the middle where B is in the big round open area. Apparently the Dropship pilots were actually flying their Dropships down the streets inside the building while their gunners mowed people down.

From my limited experience flying Militia dropships I know that just lightly tapping the side of a building with anything but the belly of the dropship makes it go boom, so to fly one through a building without losing it would take major skill. Unfortunately I donGÇÖt know what Corp they were with.

Stuff like that is possible if you know what you're doing but it is extremely inadvisable because 1 swarm or forge gun is enough to send you into a building, and at the speed you end up going through those streets your effectively a stationary target with no evasion options. so while cool and impressive to do,be prepared to lose the ship

lowratehitman Subdreddit Test Alliance Please Ignore 281	Posted - 2013.02.19 07:29:00 - [1] - Quote Hey everyone! In this video two nice members of SVER True Blood go over basic tanking to give the new members and old alike a idea of what skills are needed to stay alive on the battlefield. I would like to thank SVER True Blood for allowing the information to be shared with the community..2 Kudos to you! I would also like to say that i have a series called "Corporation Spotlight" where the director of a corp tells the community their mission and recruiting policy, moreless whatever the director wants to share with the community. If intrested in the spotlight, or taking part in any videos that will help the community in a positive manner, please feel free to contact me in game or on the PSN GMT: LowRateHitman. The audio is slightly raspy, and has been since the audio update we got a couple weeks ago. I may have to re install Dust once more, so my apology, Thanks alot!

It all depends on how long it takes me to find a skilled and proficient pilot that does not mind talking and being recorded. Also keep in mind, Corp affiliation does not matter. I try to help others out and all politics are pushed aside.

The game is much improved and now I'm on the forums...I think I've found a game I can finally latch onto on the PS3.

Oh most definitely. Finally a mature shooter that actually requires some strategy in setting up your clone/character and strategy in the fight itself. I'm 40, and I haven't had this much fun since TWL BF2 and BF2142.

I flew a dropship once and crashed it into a building -.- edit: also, it's much better if your dropship pilot has small turret skills and your gunners do too. > the standard variants of dropships also have significantly more survivability than the militia ones. You need to a bit over 5k damage to take out one of those in one shot. >> it's also probably good practice if you can get a tank from your corp to shoot at your dropship. Your pilot will get some practice learning how to evade and what to do after getting hit so he doesn't crash.

Kram Ennett R.I.f.t 7	Posted - 2013.02.22 18:40:00 - [22] - Quote Unfortunately, like most direct confrontations I get into in Dust, I tend to die a horrible flaming death when trying out tanks. However, following tips in this video I was able to live a little longer before my inevitable horrible flaming death, so I appreciate that Looks like I should stick to sneaking around capping things
