Yeah, it's almost impossible to 'destroy' them. I can hit them with 4-5 protos and knock them out of the sky all day long, I get credit about 20% of the time. |

Yes. I destroyed 4 dropships in one match today, and received (if I recall correctly) 1 'assist'. The only actual kill I received for a dropship since release was one today that was sitting on the ground, 3 volleys of swarms and the 'kill' pops up.
I suspect its something to do with giving the occupants time to escape/or the game having problems keeping track of exactly why it crashes after the animation is complete?
A bit frustrating not to get the WP/ISk, but definitely satisfying seeing the destruction  Rubbish payout, 4 dropships and a tank, 4 kills and only 135k ISK. Be nice if this was fixed just from the ISK point of view. |

On the pilot's side that problem manifests as either a complete lack of a "Death Screen", or one with a missing weapon and the damage from the crash reported rather than what killed us. |

This also happens with infantry. Took out shields and most of the armor of an enemy with scrambler rifle charge shot, and someone else finished them off. I did not get an assist. |

Took out 90% of a CRU's armor with a missile tank, someone else destroyed it, but no assist was awarded. |

The dropships have always been doing that, I even got youtube footage up from when it was happening just after the closed beta ended, and we were allowed to record.
Part of it is that to get cheap assist points, I and others will pop off a grenade (locus) or a few rounds into something being shot, vehicle or installation; at which point the rules of hacking come into play.... only 3 can get credit for it.
For some reason CCP decided that dropships get to fall to the ground like a leaf instead of blowing up outright, no matter how much over-damage you did to it, ie it has 100 armor left and is hit by a tank/ turret, swarm/ forge or La Dai Packed AV grenade, until X amount of fire time happens the ship doesn't go boom.
When in the air even if it is damaged past the Armr and Shld, the ground gets the primary kill, and if it bounces the assist, leaving you with maybe one more chance to get an assist...depending on how many people are trying to kill it at this time with Light weapon shots or AV weapons or locus maybe even flux they get the final assist.
So if it is on the ground and on fire and you stop shooting it the system just says that it exploded like an abandoned vehicle and doesn't give assist points even in that situation. |
