I just wanted to thank you Judge. Since this game started I wanted to try being a pilot, but every time I called a ship in, it wouldn't make it to the end of the match.(I couldn't even figure out safely landing) but your vids have really helped, and with that, I'm confident I'll be able to wreck from above in due time. I've already noticed i've gotten better at it since watching your videos and look forward to the next ones.
Question though:
Do you have any plans for covering fitting in the series? or are you going to let others figure what works best for them. |

No worries Judge. The anticipation is palpable but I, as will many other drop ship pilots, will wait with baited breath. Extreme respect for what you're doing. As an aside, what character can I send isk to, since I wanted to compensate you back at least a little, for both the community service and the drop ships you've lost. |

I'll also have plans that involve showing mistakes and how easy it ti to get killed in certain situations. That is a project that will involve millions of ISK in lost ships. If you still want to help then I'd be so grateful to have you along.
I really enjoy gunning, and I don't mind helping with ISK costs. I'll idle in those channels and you can feel free to hit me up to assist! |

Judge Rhadamanthus wrote:The rendering issue is bothering me and making fighting AV even harder. So here is the first in my Third general dropship series "Airborne Dust" - this one is on rendering. I keep losing ships due to this. So I want it to be clear to the develpoer and all that in 1.4 it is not fixed and still an issue. Series 3 - Airborne DustThese are long and short videos on just general issues and chat about all things airborne in DUST Remember to set to 720 or some HD setting. 720 is best. Airborne Dust - Rendering Issue
I can't because I'm on my phone, but can someone link this video I the technical support forum so that hopefully a dev can blue tag it? Judge, excellent job of outlining the problem with a diagram. Much more precise than just bitching about rendering issues. |

Judge Rhadamanthus wrote:I thought rather than just pointing out issues, I would try to offer a solution. So from a dropship POV, although would be great for tanks too; here is a video where i added graphics to a real fight with a swarmer to show my suggestions to fix the radar and HUD to make it fairer. What do you think community and what you you think DEVs? Remember to set it to 720p The Video
Very elegant solution that uses in game resources to accomplish the goal. Nice. |

I didn't see this announcement anywhere. Can you link the source? Also, I wanted to know if I'm the only one bothered by that... I mean I adore my AsDS and with the way the game is at present, they'd need a huge overhaul if they expect ds gameplay to be at all rewarding.
Further more, I feel like if they don't want drop ships to focus on pilot attacking alone, and wish to move it to a support role, that they need to add some similar option. The fact is that a ds pilot is worthless without a squad, since blue berries have no adequate way if communicating with the pilot and vice versa, and as a causal player, I really don't have the opportunity to find a sqd all the time. I enjoy flying but often I find that my side gunners would be better off on the ground a lot of the time ... or rather the players are more interested with running and gunning, and don't want to gun in a vehicle.
I feel like the AsDs caters to players like me, who really don't want to rely on blueberries to make us effective participants. This combined with maps that are not sniper friendly further limits our ability to help players use hight to their advantage, since almost all of the new maps have socettes where the roofing is fenced in in some way.
Am I alone here in this opinion? I know that judge may disagree, or at least have a rebuttal, but really what is a ds pilot to do, if they can't find reliable gunners, players who actually want to gun for you, or don't have the time to gather a sqd and just want to jump in and enjoy their ds by providing offensive support? With ds getting relocated to a support class, how long will a player like me have to wait for another offensive aerial platform? |

Which Sucks. I had to skill into Standard Dropships to learn to fly. With the Militia ones I feel like I am constantly fighting against the Self Leveling feature. They make it easier to take off without crashing, but after that the Self Leveling just makes Militia Dropships harder to fly.  Agreed. I wonder if they could change it so it only engages when you take your thumbs off the sticks.
How about just pressing a button engages auto level on all craft. Couldn't hurt |
