It's the one missing, mysterious role that you have not spoken about once nor shown any artwork for. Very curious.
PS. I'd like a refund for the 500 million ISK that your RDV's have cost crashing/spawning into my dropships. Makes this unsustainable career into even more of a joke. If that was possible.. |

I'm honestly hoping for something like the Warhawk dropship.
Yes it is called a "dropship" but it is very different than Dust dropships. Not only can it carry friendly vehicles (much like the RDV) but also comes with 12 turrets, 6 on each side. May sound like overkill, but the insane amount of damage these things were able to give off is what made them memorable. It was all balanced very slow movement, but with loads and loads of armor.
Something like this would work great once we get fighters, which are the rock to these scissors if you catch my drift. Plus considering it looks like fighters will have a hover mode much like the warhawks, it would feel oh so similar.
EDIT, I forgot Today is about Haiku's I will sneak one in |

Tbh I'd also be happy with something like this. http://james-camerons-avatar.wikia.com/wiki/Dragon_Assault_Ship
Would work well with MTAC'S, provided either of these things make it off the drawing board.
Edit: just read this in the trivia section of that article,

think about how slow logi/reg drops move. now imagine a heavy variant that cant fly away from attacks, and can be seen and attacked from nearly every where on the map. It would have to have some pretty high ehp and slot space to be viable.
that being said I still want them |

Seeing as, in theory, it will have a large turret - so it will be like a tank - That can't hide so well - will be known to be airborne the instant you get in (with the dropship cue that spells death) - with a battlefield filled with AV
in short, it will be exactly like a crater |

As for the AFKing, they should come out with a "kick" feature where you can kick people out of your ship that are n specific positions.....not entirely sure how it would work but meh whatever |

(Unlikely but still entirely possible) then they get an option press (X) to stay if they dont then they are out too or where you activate the modules there is one to kick passengers and one to kick the turrets or choose left turret or right turret im sure no one use all the module wheel |

Something that seems hyper over powered. but bear with me.
The Heavy Gunship has been made to withstand significant ground based fire, It has two bottom mounted heavy turrets to provide crushing offensive power.
It's uncompromising armor and armament has left little room for Electronic Warfare and related defenses, though it's weight offers it a substantial amount of stability over lighter vehicles.
Basically, It would have two large turret hardpoints, bottom mounted, and a single top mounted light turret.(maybe not, have to have some kind of weakness)
It's main strength would be in the massive amount of fire it can soak from the bottom of the ship(it's defenses are focused toward the ground, some natural damage resist) and that the enemy will be constantly running from the turrets. While it's weakness is the top of the vehicle, leaving it open to ADS's and well, bail out assaults from enemy dropships(hop out, drop some remotes, sprint, jump, push the button.) and whenever EWAR gets implemented, it would be weak against that.
It would have a platform built into the bottom of the vehicle, where anyone who exits midflight will end up, ready to deploy.
max occupancy 8: 1 pilot, 2 gunners, 5 passengers.
Yes I know this isn't feedback/requests. |

Yes I know this isn't feedback/requests. Most of those things would be up to racial variants. I imagine heavy aircraft vehicles to have both choppers and boosters. It would have one room in which players could walk in. however the pilot can choose to open a jumping bay... that just drops them. It would have 1 large turret in the center that has a reversed view of tank angels. 4 small turrets located symmetrically around the HAC. It would be cool if 1 or 2 DS good spawn on the top or land on it. Also have an engine room where other players can support the vehicle. Overall it should be slow/ powerful/ team based . |

I thank 2 large turrets at the bottom both with a 180 degree view with 2 small turrets on the side, or hear me out on the side with a 120 degree rotation so it can see the ground and in front of the craft, also it should be like a tank in witch player can't be shot out but also there only the few seats for the drive and turret operators. Shield HA should start with 4500 shields base 6 high 1 low, armor HA should have 6000 armor base 3 high slots 5 low. These should be the caldari/galentia respective HeavyAircraft. What do ya'll thank |

the way I was seeing the turrets working in my idea was that each had a blind spot directly under it, where one of them couldn't fire, the other could hit this area, thus creating the need for communication between all three major parties(pilot IDs targets, gunners take them down, gunners talk when an enemy is in their blind spot, gunners give the all clear, pilot signals drop team.)
Such an arrangement would have a well coordinated team shredding the opponent, whereas an uncoordinated one would have plenty of holes in it's defense to be exploited. |

I don't care how the turrets are set up I just want them to be lasers. The best part of laser turrets the don't have to compensate for the movement all that much unlike blasters and railguns and missiles. |
