I can tell u it eats tanks alive, and this is from a guy who made it a point not to let a drop ship live more than 2 minutes after deployment. Put proto small missiles on it and even shield tanks will run in fear. |

Ran one last night, that front turret is pretty easy to aim at first but it's absolute hell to maintain a stationary target (like a turret installation). I was only using militia missiles or blasters, so perhaps a better turret will deal with them quicker. |

iv maxed out the gunship... and there are some bugs to be honest :/ i dont like to admit it but hopfully they will fix it soon
HPs-
for a gunship that is meant to maintain its postion and rain hell down it doesnt have a lot of HPs
PG issues-
the power grid cant support prototype gear even with ALL the veichle skills MAXED out, im having to equip power grid modules just to have shield extenders and a proto turret :/
Navagation-
when engaging ground targets the nose dips.... so much that you are forced into a dive, this makes it impossible for your gunners to hit anything
PRICE!-
AFTER spending 8 mil SP into the gunship, to have one fully eqiuped with turrets extenders etc.. its cost 1.7 mil isk JUST FOR ONE taking into account the PG ISSUES, WEAK HPS and NAVAGATION DRAMAS id say dont make the mistake i did bro..
HOLD ON TO YOUR SP UNTIL YOU GET SOME GOOD REVIEWS AND THE PROBLEMS ARE FIXED^
dont make the same mistake i did :/ |

Assault should rule tbh
I cant kill you in a HAV with a railgun because it cannot aim upwards of more than a few degrees so you can hove high and be fine |

From what I've heard, prices on the ship are 2x what they're supposed to be.. So that price tag should drop by about 300K. |

I knew they would be because the dropship design isn't a good assault platform, with or without a front mounted turret. The way it flies doesn't support the kind of steady precise aiming that you need while still remaining mobile and activating modules, and its turret placement doesn't support focused forward fire. The idea of an assault "dropship" is silly too, since the normal dropship only needs 1 turret to be more than effective at transportation. I think covert ships would be a MUCH better alternative to assault, scrap them and give them their own vehicle type with its own model and physics.
TL;DR: Assault Dropships feel like lazy design. |
