I really feel for you dropship pilots. I really do. I almost feel bad about blowing up that guys dropship. I can't believe it worked.
I mean, I don't think anyone else was firing at it but yeah.
I also basically wiped one out with a shotgun in an earlier match.
I guess you shouldn't fly so low? Idk. |

I hope so. I want vehicles to be viable and it's something like this that makes me not throw points into them right now. Well, a LAV is on the list but that's just for hoping I can do a LLAV CRU setup but a dropship cru? Not yet. :/ |

If the small turrets didn't have such crap range we wouldn't need to fly so low |

It would be nice to have more than one viable option, and even missiles are sketchy at best. |

So I need the chosen ones just to be somewhat effective with missiles? I imagine balance should be "Missiles are effective when used by most people and exceptional with the good shots" not "Missiles are a bit poop when used by most people and decent with the good shots"

Hmm, I've yet to see it happen. People generally seem to do better with scattered blasters (when they don't shoot stupid targets like CRUs and tanks) so that's what I stick with despite the obvious drawback. Perhaps I should run missiles again and give them another chance. |

its also about how low you fly normally and maps buildings. and also what you get for gunnner. random blues are just that. if you get out of the pilot seat they will steal it and crash it. |

I switch between the two. I do get a giggle out of making snipers on towers dance with a blaster. but the number of times I needed to take out a swarm launcher quickly when I had a blaster (even proto) and had to resort to strafing runs is annoying. also I find swarms crown around hives and the missile can help clear them too. As well as uplinks on rooftops |

I do have random blues and I've yet to see one steal my ship so I do well in that aspect |

its hilarious when you're able to chase a shieldless gunnies away with an assault rifle.
I blew up dozens of gunnies back in the E3 build that way. |

Been doing this more and more lately, it is fun.
With all the hate on the MD right now, might as well make best use of it while I still can.
Flux+MD makes the shield tankers go boom quick
Had some idiot in an armor tank just sit below me while I emptied ALL my ammo on him , dropped compact nanohive , refilled and dropped another clip on him to watch him blow up.. he was just spinning his turret around firing all around him. That **** was funny |

I'm going to guess it was a HMG not SMG. If the pilot was in your range long enough to be destroyed, he's an idiot. |

Ok, it's simple.
We nerf the dropship.
He is the core gamer, the bastard child of the casual and hardcore gamer. He invests the former's effort and cries when he doesn't get the latter's results.
