Nguruthos IX Hellstorm Inc League of Infamy 459	Posted - 2013.05.16 04:16:00 - [1] - Quote 1. (NEW) All turrets cannot aim anywhere near the bottom or front of the ship. Turret will be snapped into a new position aiming front and level. This was part of their failed attempt at stopping missiles from hitting their own dropships. 2. Missiles still hit their dropships 90% of the time. Especially when moving at all. If they don't hit the ship they go everywhere. 3. If a turret gunner is in a turret when he get's shot dead he will NOT be able to re-enter the drop-ship for the rest of the match. The dropship will be invisible to him as well. Nice one! 4. If you are in a dropship, park on top a structure, and press start... The ship will instantly and spontaniously explode for all it's health killing it and you. GG 1.5 million ISK dropships...which reminds me 5. Patch notes stated a reduction in dropship prices. Instead all that the patch really contained was an increase in turret prices. Turrets that don't work, which shoot the ship, which if the gunner is shot out of, he may not re-enter and which will blow up all together if you have the urge to glance at your map for some reason while flying. All this in mind they decided dropships should not benefit from the vehicle HP increase given to every other vehicle. But SHOULD suffer the skills nerf to HP (Shield and armor 25% each), a reduction in all turret skill dmg bonus( by half), and a reduction in PG by 25% as per skill change. So, have fun being rail-gunned by a turret installation deep within enemy red-line! Have fun being sniped by redline rail tanks. Have fun eating the front end of installations ridiculously impeccable aiming AI. Enjoy being worse than 2 shot by forge guns out of nowhere. Enjoy paying for all that as well. Enjoy the Free LAV's being called in with more survivability than you. Enjoy their RDV's that will collide with you out of nowhere sinking another 2 million ISK bite mark into your wallet. Enjoy having hacked-EX grenades lobbed at you if you come near the ground....For the next 10 years because every player bought about 10,000 of them before they were removed from market. Enjoy CCP telling you these things will be fixed or made better for another year while they continuously do the opposite of that. Enjoy your assault drop-ship front turrets fighting against you to aim upwards with all their willpower. Enjoy not being needed by anyone on the ground because a LAV will get you there faster and safer, and it's free. Enjoy not being wanted in PC because you're just a big, worthless, buggy, flying liability. Nerfed and left for dead. Enjoy! Is there anything else I'm forgetting?

This was part of their failed attempt at stopping missiles from hitting their own dropships. Given the timing, I suspect this reason you gave is incorrect, and that it's actually part of the fix to tank turrets, which had their firing arcs basically inverted from what they should have been - able to fire down much lower than they should reach, but unable to aim up correctly. The fix to this happened in the same update which broke Dropship turret aiming, so it's possible the problem is with these two turret firing arcs being bound together. No, they were trying to draw an area around parts of the ship so the turret couldn't aim there. The top half of those parts kind of works but anything you aim at half way near the bottom or front of the ship (like 20% of all aiming area with the turret) gets locked into resetting the gun above that area on the ship they want you shooting over instead of at. Hop in a turret, give it a whirl. Report back, you'll see
Nguruthos IX Hellstorm Inc League of Infamy 463	Posted - 2013.05.16 06:45:00 - [3] - Quote Know why you're not hearing about this from anyone? Because nobody is using drop-ships. Know why nobody is using dropships? Take a guess.

It took them over a YEAR to fix logistics ships, and that was just a stat change...(and they managed to butcher their handling in the process ) Can you link me to the thread that had the info on that? The title you were supposed to put in the ticket? If you don't have it bookmarked then don't bother I'll scour the Internets for it in a bit

Flaylock Pistol has push force equivalent to a rail projectile, having approximate range similar to the one of AV grenades. Intel provided by the courtesy of trolling blueberries. Rather short and subjective experience - haven't been seeing too many folks in the mood to gun lately. Might be becase... the turrets are all bugged to hell. I tried and I can't stand to do it anymore. Neither can anyone else I know. That's good to know. Also I suspect the charge shot of new laser rifle might as well. That's neither here nor there. Bet it rips shields off good though too.
Nguruthos IX Hellstorm Inc League of Infamy 465	Posted - 2013.05.16 09:12:00 - [7] - Quote bed time. time to dream of hotfixes
Nguruthos IX Hellstorm Inc League of Infamy 469	Posted - 2013.05.16 18:45:00 - [8] - Quote Did that latest 4 megabyte patch add any other DS bugs today? Other than the obvious fact that some of us now can't log in at all. "Bad internet weather" says CCP.
Nguruthos IX Hellstorm Inc League of Infamy 478	Posted - 2013.05.16 19:07:00 - [9] - Quote Bungholio Cornholio wrote: I can't even fly the damn ships anymore since the update. I seem to just fly backwards, barrel roll and crash. Any good fan made tutorials on piloting? I'm all for making things interesting and complicated, but crap this is ridiculous. They did seem to add some odd extra weight to the front end of ships. If you try to fly straight up vertically, after not too long the ship will roll head over back. I don't recall it doing that before.

Almost broke my controller earlier, looking forward to going full AR slayer and pretending like I'm good cuz I have a good KDR I'm on the verge of DS retirement. One too many RDV's to the head. I did get hand-cramps recently from that horrible front turret so maybe a couple days to cool down and (don't laugh) a couple hot fixes soon might help.

They are death traps. but your post had me LOLing :D +1 Of course all of these have been posted in the bug support forum with no response other than adding more bugs. Here's the latest aircraft bug :( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q1tkdfGmgDM&feature=player_detailpage#t=11s

You might as well take them out of the game with that attitude. Whats the point in having them if no one uses em. I mean, I could say the same to anything. Lets take every fitting in the game, bug, break and nerf it into oblivion then create one role that can effectively do anything. Tell everyone to respec, Why bother fixing the game.

They already did that - new "logi-assault" suits, absolutely no need any other role or suits :D True but can we throw down a few million ISK bet as to which will get fixed first?

Only weapon & suts get their fixes first (as the most demanded), no fixes in near future (few month) for dropships, no need for "Edgar Cayce" mode or bets for that :) CCP Wolfman's topic can confirm that... of course. The problem is every patch they've introduced i only piling on more DS bugs. Which won't be fixed obviously for half a year. By the time these ones are addressed we'll have a smorgasbord of other issues
Nguruthos IX Hellstorm Inc League of Infamy 535	Posted - 2013.05.19 04:18:00 - [17] - Quote The worst part is, IF and when they ever do fix any of these bugs. They won't be announced. We'll have to test for ourselves after every patch to see if it's better. Because in all their threads of uprising bugs they REFUSE to acknowledge any of these I've listed here. While that's funny because A: half were introduced with uprising. and B: I've posted all of them in bug forum multiple times probably. Yet they have these threads of "Known issues" with uprising and the drop-ship bugs never even land on the list. So they want to pretend it's not here, pretend they didn't have to fix it (in a year when they might) And pretend it never happened.
