I suggest that more and bigger Drones have to come and they have to be stronger and can take more damage. And any DroneCarriers like Typhoon and Dominix, they need to be able to "repair" the drones if they are in the Drone bay by themselves and they need more DroneBay capacity.
Drones cannot killed by Torpedos or Cruise Missles in near Future because they need less agility and Drone agility have to be increased and they need better KI to make evasive Maneuvers if a Missle locks them.
Further more we need a new Missle class, called Anti-Drone Missle. This Missles only can hit Drones and no other object or ship.
Drones can only destroyed with Smartbombs or anti-drone missles then.
I think this would start a new art of gameplay and Dominix and of course the Typhoon will be used ingame.

i dont think that a new type of missile is needed. afaik missiles (FoF) will target them. and Torp/Cruise/Standard etc... will hit them if targeted.
however anti-missile drones, and repair drones would be nice :)

no way you could ever hit a drone with a missile unless you were incredibly lucky. Drones at present function so close to the enemy that if the enemy used missiles on them they would actually assist in their own demise.
Make it so you can set the orbiting radius of drones so that you can keep them shooting but out of smartbomb range.
And yes...there should be a module named "Drone Repairer" or some such.

a midslot drone repair module would be good. Also a +1/2 drone control module would be neat. Repair drones, true scout drones, EW drones, ECM drones, anti-missile drones... tons of ways to make drones cooler.
A little work on drones and ship stats, and the Gallente can have as unique a combat style as anyone.

and please TomB, we need another skill to control more Drones than now such as like Advanced Drone Interfacing, with each lvl of the skill you can Control 2 Drones more. requirements is Drones5 and Drone Interfacing5 if you got all at 5 you can control up to 20 Drones or something like that and this would be pretty nice. Then a Dominix and Typhoon gets its Role in the Space as a Drone Carrier.
And Anti-Missle Drones would be a very nice idea.

That's sounds ok :P 20 drones  but did you ever thought about the lag?..

Would be nice, but you would have to make it a rank 8 + skill. But do remeber about the advanced fighting drones like the Vampire, heh, those things are scary :)

Like the drone repairers, personaly I think they could be another way to solve this and that is repair drones. The 20 drone idea is crazy coz of the massive lag when 2 Dominix duel each other. Probably the main problem about theys drones like EW, ECCM is that it will take massive coding, DON'T MENTION trying to code more orders like defend and other orders to drone.

how about a drones that can mount a couple of torps (or equiv weight of lighter missiles - including defenders)
now that would be something to fear :)
a new class or drone - fighter drone - and new skill to control them which requires misiles 5, drone interfacing 5 and hvy drone 5. Fighter drone skill would allow the use 1 of of these drones per level :)
basically, the tomcats of eve
