Detailed instructions on how to get the Troop Transport pin/Titan drops

[Reaper]

Hey Ezekiel! I remember you! long time no see man! youre a great pilot man, but a lil crazy i think, kept telling me to switch to the other gun to shoot down some transport but I just couldnt find the b*st*rd!! I mustve switched guns bout fifty times b4 I got sick of bossy pilots and decided to invade the titan instead, but I cant really say sh*t cos he had an awesome score that round!! anywho didnt really bother reading this thread, whats with all the flak on poor eze?

[Luv2Killu]

I love that you felt the need to go and get another pin eze'.

Well done.

Not if you play for a long time. Some people have over 2000 combat efficiency pins. I only have over 100 though.

Did they get all those pins in only 7 hours though?

Ummmm.... yeah... they did.:laugh: Come on, think about what you just asked. I was refering to some BG's that have been playing for A LONG TIME. Does 7 hours qualify for a long time?:shakehead:

YUP, i got 2000 of them.

I don't know how it would be possible to pad dropping ppl off.....

Anyway, i really doubt Ezekiel took part in that transporter glitch, didn't the glitch make you get a ridiculous round score in the thousands? From what i see his best score is 200. So it's just best to stop ruining multiple threads with this argument

Ok so back on topic......

I know i still need to practice in the transport some more but does anyone else have some good tips at getting this pin cause all arguments aside you all seem to be pretty decent at it.

Yeah, if you ignore the last three pages, the first couple of pages show you exactly how. There are two basic trajectories- Start high (300+m), dive over and then past Titan as shown on page 1. Safer because it gets you below their AA guns quickly, but takes longer to recycle cuz you have to climb back up all the way. Option two is only slightly modified- start the same, but only dive to about 250 m to make the pod drops, then circle back out to pick up more people. Not as safe from AA, but faster to recycle, and safer from the enemy gunship.

That's it in a nutshell, and OP did a great job of showing you the graphics etc. on the first page or two.

Yup! Turns out 10 is pretty simple, and 15 is really not that much of a reach. The guys on teamspeak where I've been playing weren't even helping out- they make a point of using their SL's beacon. With a friendly squad, or if the defenders are being more careful about clearing beacons off their deck, you could do 15 drops in 5 minutes or less.

Thanks for your help, in any case! (That one night we were on opposite sides & you bailed, I was able to switch after the round, but you were gone! :p)

Next up- Titan attack, and aerial gunnery... :yay:

So now I need to recruit a good pilot who doesn't mind flying for his gunner for a few rounds...
