I am writing this after, once again, losing 5 ogre II because the game suddenly decides to CTD me, and the NPCs were grateful enough to pop my drones.
I am trying to keep calm about the problems with drones but after so many years I am about ready to go on a rampage with a nasty post, but I will stay calm . When are the issues with drones and the blaring problems with them ever going to be addressed and fixed?
Here is a small list:
1) We still have drones that randomly pick targets. Why can this not be fixed? Why must I baby sit my drones all the way to the target with the attack command? Seriously, this is getting to be too much.
2) Drones got majorly shafted with the ship HP increase, but there is no response at all about raising drone hps. Are there any plans to increase drone hps? Drones were easy enough to insta pop before ships were increased in hps across the board.
3) If a player CTDs or goes LD while fighting NPCs with drones then the drones are dead. Fix this! Make the drones stop attacking the NPCs if the player warps out (CTDs, LDs...etc) and make the NPCs stop attacking the drones.
4) There are still missions that count drones as an extra player, which in turns agros the entire dead space pocket. It is CCPs goal to have mission runners fly other ships then the Raven, right?
5) Drone controls in the UI are just horrible. No bind able commands and no hotkeys for drones in... what, 3 years now?
6) Drones are still getting stuck on each other.
etc....
Throw us drone users a bone here.

Originally by: Jin Freaks Then u don't use them enough mate. I allways have to click the engage target 3 times only to find out that there still are only 4 drones on one target. There is nothing wrong with my machine AMD 3800 + gyg ram etc etc and I have at least 4 CTDs a week. About the drones being alive after CTDing: sometimes they survive and sometimes they get fried. No idea what triggers it. To state that this is a skillwise problem makes me ROFL because I have over 5 mil in drones and can sign all of these problems.
Soooooo /SIGNED
Jin beat me to a reply.
If you haven't seen, or suffered, these problems then you haven't used drones for any extended period of time.

Originally by: Max Kentarii Overview also needs some love, but there's already a thread for that in the features/suggestions forums. Linkage
With no dev reply to it. I've seen another thread where someone had a good drone UI and it got no response either (he had pictures as well).

Originally by: Xiaoting Wang Oh, btw, whining about drones is absolutely useless. I've been doing it for longer than a year and a half with absolutely no results. I don't know what kind of stimulus the devs have to receive in order for drones to be places on their TOFIX list. Maybe the code is simply so ****** up that they're afraid of touching it and just pretend not to hear us. A year ago they kept says that they COULD NOT reproduce any of the drone problems we were mentioning to them, hence we were just making things up. What kind of subscription do I have to pay to make devs fix their own game? Is there like a higher quality subscription, maybe 50 bucks a month, which gives one the right to be believed by the devs when bugs are reported?
Lol
I was one of the guys debating with the Dev in question with him telling us that we were, full stop, wrong, he was actually quite abrasive to us about the whole issue if I recall correctly.
