I'd like to see whet everyone is thinking about dropships in their current state. Be sure to leave your own opinions.
However, here's my opinion:
Unlike all other vehicle types, dropships were not given a HP buff when the vehicle core skills were changed. This acts as a mini nerf to the already crippled vehicle class.
Dropships price were not halved like they said they would. At the moment a Myron/Grimsnes costs 20k more than a Gunnlogi/Madrugar, and is far less useful.
While the Assault dropships have the chromosome handling, the normal and logi ships speed and handling were nerfed to make the assault look better than it really is. Not increasing their tank, and lowering the speed? seriously?
Despite being told for god knows how long dropships were getting more WP options, uprising brought absolutely nothing, other than the Assault DS turret. Where's Logi rep points? Where's mCRU spawn points? Ect.
The combination of all four of these points turn these vehicles into flying coffins. If they weren't such in such a crippled state I'd be flying right now, but unfortunately, CCP has quite honestly given them the short end of the stick for a while now. If CCP wishes them to remain relevant to the game, a lot is going to have to change rather quickly. |

Go and grab a Forge gun/Swarms, you can nerf them to your heart's desire :) |

Just thought I'd add, LAVs can reach higher levels of tank DSes can while being a fraction of the cost. |

The path to auchwitz was paved with indifference.
If people can't be bothered to get vocal, things won't improve. |

Been checking the older thread, CCPs response was ages ago before uprising. Like the price reduction, they said things would happen and then nothing. Can we at least get an explanation as to why they are like this? |

We asked again and we are promised a bomber variant.
All CCP knows how to reward is killing.
Simply give commission for actions from players that have dropped within the last 20 seconds. Then it could fit the role of a "hot dropper" |

All CCP knows how to reward is killing. The ADS is actually quite useful, in something like PC it can mean you have an effective scout/harassment unit while only losing 1 person from the ground squads, my CEO is quite sold on how useful they can be.
Logi LAV can do the same thing better, with other advantages. |
