Besides with the ceiling as high as it is you can fly up out of range easily and hide your shiny toy in the sky

I swear to god everyone that pilots a vehicle in this game is near constantly calling for infantry to rendered useless against them
Anti vehicle stuff exists, deal with it, and you dont see real world pilots going "Waaaah, RPGS designed in the 70s are still a threat to us, tell the enemy commander he needs to nerf his soldiers weapons so we cant be shot down"

Not constructive in any way and useless^^^^^^^^^^

Anyways

The cost of the DS were supposed to have been cut in half, still not enough of a difference to make a profit.

CCP address this before the extinction of the DS. Just lower the price of DS and or mods.

Thank you for being the first one to start a discussion here. That's the main issue i have been really trying to grasp, the fact they said they cut the prices in half, but in reality (once you start to upgrade the sheilds, boosters, overdrive injectors, and turrets) they start adding up to about what they used to cost anyways. 1 Assault dropship for me is 840k, and it still has all Small turret slots, so the front cannon still does hardly anything, even with the decent AT-1 turrets.
