Thank you very much :P And i completely agree, the one thing that determines whether you will survive in a dropship (apart from random RDV's) is your skill, and my python can out-run a 2nd swarm shot any time of day, because once the first swarms hit me i have about 5-7 seconds to put my fuel injector on and speed away. But i have seen some insanely funny DS crashes as I'm shooting them down, such as the pilot trying to land ontop of a building but as he's getting out his dropship topples over the side and takes him with it, as well as while a DS is trying to run away from my proto-missle launchers he runs right into a large building.
Don't forget that luck is a factor too, while swarms are rarely an issue there's always that time when 1 hits you just before a forge gun or vice versa and your cackling laughter turns to a moan of dismay as your dropship plummets, or those rare cases when the knock throws you into terrain. |

Well yes, when there's an AV team up on me and i get hit by 2-3 seperate AV's all at once, I can't help but say oh well, there was nothing i could really do even if i did have an all shield tanked ds, I have had that happen about only twice though, where the reason i lost wasn't because of 1 OP assault forge gun making unbelievable shots at me or railgun snipers picking me off, but instead because i had an entire team of different AV's focused on me alone.
Yeah, and RDV's. bad luck means that they remain a threat, was doing a strafing run and a reddot called one in as I activated my afterburner and pulled out, thing spawned right above me and dropped, Bang! No more dropship |

Insults show weakness in arguments.
I'm a tanker/proto swarmer.... I don't see them as easy. If you don't have a good enough sidearm your dead. DS's outrun them which makes sense right now... But will have to change when jets, super fast flying planes, are introduced. Also unlike the FG you have to step out of hiding for a couple of seconds.
Also
OF COURSE there is going to be a heat seeking weapon. At least it can't fire at infantry still. Complaining is going to do nothing. Do you really think CCP well nerf this weapon? They may do nerfs/buffs to other things that result it seeming to be nerf.
The glitches do provide an unprecedented advantage... Which well obviously be fixed soon...
If your going to complain about something, other than core flaylock, please be sure you are specced into it as well.
LOL dude. |

Forge gun Point Shoot Profit Hmm so much skill is there. Against dropships, no skill I agree, but against ground vehicles it actually takes skill, especially the guns that won't hold a charge.
Everything is no skill against dropships, everyone hears us, everyone sees us, we're the vehicle equivalent of a scout suit, and our health is balanced against weapons that are 10% weaker than what they currently are. |
