I agree that drones should not hit at such extreme ranges.
Drones should have the same tracking ability as frigate-sized guns.
Have frigate pilots ever given thought to the fact that maybe you're always meant to lose to 8 drones? Drones and frigates aren't of dissimilar size.
Let's fix the infinite range and 100% damage hits first before we mess with tracking.
We all know what messing with tracking gets us 
P.S: If the infinite range stuff goes, frigates will be able to pick the drones off from range, which would give them much more survivability.

That's the point I was trying to make nStuff.
It should never become the case where 8 Heavy Drones can't kill a frigate. 8 Heavy Drones = 8 frigates.
Frigate users are often telling us BS specialists to "Adapt or die" - let's get the heavy drones adapted but you'll still die

8 heavy drones destroyed a Scorpion?
Bull.
Show us the logs.
Some EV guys had an enemy Scorpion warp-jammed, webbed, and target-jammed and just killed him with heavy drones 
'Twas more than 8 though.

I'm sorry but I still don't see how you can complain about a single frigate being killed by a swarm of drones.
Battleship users accept the risk they will get killed by a swarm of frigates.
Frigate pilots should accept the fact that, once the infinite-range hitting bug has been resolved, you are still expect to die to 8 frigates if you even get close.

I disagree that drones should be considered equal to frigates. They are much smaller, single weapon machines; basically a weapon with a rocket pack strapped to the back.
so why is 8 frigates taking down a BS considered reasonable but 8 drones taking down a frigate not?
We all know about the infinite-locking range and firing range but still, some of you are behaving as if you're meant to have a chance against 8 drones.
