forge guns and dropships are not balanced im a pilot and i have been shot down in 1 or 2 hits max and i use the python with shield hardeners but the biggest and most ridiculous reason i dislike forge guns is their range i have been in the red zone on our base and still get shot down they should nerf range and damage or nerf range and increase dropships shield or armor i mean forge guns are stronger than instalations at over 2000 damage a shot and have more if not the same range. sorry first post on a forum |

yh but honestly iv used both dropships and iv tryed a forge gun but a forge gun is alot easier to use and as i am using the caladari dropship most hits almost flip it |

Azura Sakura wrote:Only thing the DS need is a Buff to their armour and shields. Maybe change the forge gun and railgun installation--their damage decreases the further the target is but will punish any target near by. Because it is damn near impossible to be effective when you have 1 angry nerd sitting there the whole match shooting your DS from your aide of the map in their red line
exacly thank you for posting that. iv had a forge gunner focus on me a whole match i didn't get any killes or points due to him hitting and reducing my shield and armor all the way down every single time i got out of cover iv also had a tank/instalation/swarm launcher and forge gun focus on me at the same time there is nothing that can help you in that situation |

Ballance threads for a minute I thought I was going to read about a dropship pilot complaining it's too easy to avoid forge gun's and they need a buff. But nope just another thread about nerfing something so it will be harder to kill you in your play style.
you think forge guns dont need to be changed even as they have approximately 2300 damage? and ridiculous range you may think iv only used dropships but i haven't i used forge guns and they are easy to use a dropship can zig zag all it wants and i could still hit it. and try a dropship out forge guns will hit you before you even get in it |

[quote=TuFar Gon]I hope this is'nt another thread cryin about heavies. Just a bunch of people with bratty senses of entitlement who want to rule the field uncontested. Next thing ya know they'll call for forge gun nerfs. If your any bit a good pilot who fits your ship properly YOU R SIMPLY VERY HARD TO TAKE DOWN. Also,,cant help but notice not a single mention of swarm launchers,,HELLOOO,,THEIR MISSLE ROUNDS LOCK ON AND CHASE U. TO ALL THE " REAL PILOTS " OUT THERE,,FORGIVE MY RANT,,,JUST CANT STAND IT WHEN PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT HEAVIES[/q
understand from a pilots point of veiw you cant make a good fitting the CPU and PG are pathetic and a forge gun 1 or 2 hit kills any pilot no matter what i just want range reduced a small gun like that shouldn't be stronger than an instalation |

i checked the market just to see the damage a forge gun can do the prototype does 2700 and you say im wrong about them being overpowered i have 2 prototype shield extenders on my python and a shield hardener and that would still take my dropship out ( without damage amplifiers ) so they may be balanced on everything else but that would 1 shot any other dropship... the problem is you can only squeeze 3400 shield on a python without a armorrepair module |

And moochie, why not just give dropships an inherent resistance buff in that case?
all im saying is they made dropships fear almost everything plus the fact that the pg and cpu are usless i would like a solution that keeps forge gunners and dropship pilots happy you cant really fit much on it i have every skill point in vehicle modulels and my dropship still gets ripped apart |

DS 10 wrote:It's hard to tell if all the dropships I've taken out have just been bad or my FG is just OP vs them. Most ships can only take one hit from my Ishukone Assault before dropping. Sometimes it MIGHT take two. I can totally understand why pilots are upset. It takes several shots on an LLAV and they are a lot more agile. It should take at least two shots to take out a basic ship, 3-4 for a good ship.
thank you. since your a forge gunner that actually helps this post on dropships since most forge gunners wont admit its unfair against dropships and this is why ccp needs to sort out the dropships shields and armor i mean they already reduced assault dropship a while ago |
