Thread: Transport Pilot bail out's (gripe)

I had a situation a few days ago where I was in a transport as a gunner or passenger and pilots keep using them as personal transports jumping out.

I am simply calling attention to the practice and wondering what recourse we have to call out such players that do that?. It doesent give a teamkill but its bad form against the rest of your teammates.

I don't see a problem with it if no one else is on the titan waiting for it or in it (for transport, at least). It's not like one person is a transport is helpful anyways, and might as well fly somewhere instead of having it sit on the titan deck.

If there's someone else in it and you crash it, then you deserve whatever shit people fling at you. Unless you were going to crash anyways, in which case there's no reason to go down with the ship.

I don't mind them jumping out.. but for gods sake..say something.. "BAIL OUT"... instead i find out as i think hes landing and realize "shit.. im falling.." SMACK!..

How about you notice the pilot bails out and switch seats to try and land, crash, and in the meantime several others have spawned in and they punish you for the T/K. That happened to me a couple of weeks ago. I was complete and utterly pissed. Now I'm to the point that I won't spawn on or get in a transport unless someone from my squad is flying it.

Owch, that stinks...

as a transport pilot: I will KAMIKAZE if im alone and will cost my enemy a gunship or a load of paratroopers , I do check to see that im alone first , and if I have a capable side gunner , then I go with that . what frustrates me , is having a good gunner jump out and leave me in the middle of a dogfight with a gunship . Also, if a gunship starts firing at me , I SHALL defend my self with whatever I have , if Im alone that means I will RAM you with the transport , WE BOTH GO DOWN , people who fly gunships and expect it to go down in flames because the pilot has no way to fire it's weaponry can lick my salty nutsac , Im going to use my wits and maybe take you down with me.....Same goes for AA gunners , if you attack a helpless transport and it rams you, don't bitch about it, you drew attention the moment you started to attack. One consequence of attacking me , is I ATTACK BACK> :2

I see this more on Verdun. And I think it's freaking cool. I dont know how many people die but it's just sweet. Once and a while I'll see a transport, full throtle, run into a walker or tank. I'll stop everything and just watch it ram and explode.

But on the other side. I hate spawning in transports because you never know who is flying and where they are going. So once and while you'll get lucky but most of the time the transports are flying coffins.

It pisses me off to no end to spawn in a transport with full health that is in a nose dive and 10 meters from the ground.

It's a tactical fucking spawn point people!!!!!!! Land the damn thing and let others use it to spawn near an enemy silo/flag.

People that bail from a pristine transport make me wanna rip out their tongue and beat them to death with it.

In general, they should be drug out in the street and smacked around like a crack whore who's short 20 bucks on her pimp's cut.

As for ramming, I refuse to ram unless I think I could aim the transport, bail out, live, and still get the ram.

I mean...sure, a transport for a walker is a fair trade...but would *you* really ram it if you thought you could live?

Yeah, me either.
