I notice that the price of the Stork didnt drop and if the Titantic is now the quoted transport why did its price not increase?
For a mod please make the Titanic more easy to dock with trade lanes, and why does it judder like crazy when you do ask it to dock with any trade lane , gate or base?
As a final note. The Stork is a train. To increase the cargo space you just add extra trailers. The tug that pulls it is the same tug for all ships in this family.

Stop shooting at the crosshair for once, use your fat bomber armor to soak up the 4 turrets the Stork can point at you, and scorcher/snac/chaingun/scattergun/hellfire the fat front portion of the transport. The Advanced Train is THE slowest turning ship in the mod. It has a max turning speed of 8.59 degrees/sec and it has under 1/4th the responsiveness of the next fastest ship, the Coalition Carrier (.34 of a second vs .08). Lets not forget its WHOPPING 85.000 hull, which is often coupled with traders usually not putting armor on at all, means a SNAC to the hull is instant death.
Being unable to maneuver your bomber up to the front portion the size of a gunboat and the turning speed slower than the slowest battleships in the game is actually laughable.
I agree. It really is slow and hard to fly. As soon as you take the shields down, the game is pretty much over, the only thing left is to SNAC it.
I tested this out and the results weren't suprising because it was pretty easy to kill it. Still, considering the fact that it's slow and it's like small compared to others, it's easy to hit it, at least it was easy for me. The price seems to be still the same.
Imo it was nerfed because it was the easiest 5k to enter the trade lanes making it the faster money maker transport by far, nerfed to balance the fact that almost never missis this task when compared to the other 5k
Just a guess

I don't miss Trade Lanes with Liberty Super Transport for example. Maybe that "the easiest 5k to enter the trade lanes" depends on how the guy who's flying that transport skilled.
That's my opinion.

You should try a colossus, which despite the better turnrate still takes longer to turn around and is about twice as large.. Stork was way too easy to use compared to the competition
Last words are for fools who have not yet said enough.
i fly a stork all the time as well as a collocuss.. nerfing the stork is just plain bullshit... where is my compensation ?? Many hauls need to be done in 5 k increments.not 4800. I would like a different ship to replace the one I bought.cause I bought it because it was a 5K ship not a 4800. Hard to shoot my white hinnee . When I first nooticed my ship was nerfed, I was told it would be fixed on the next patch..So I never complained.. That ship has been a 5k fer how long ?? and NOW it needs nerfing... Bullshit pure and simple....
Entitled powertraders, unite against this oppression called balance. You shall fight againstreason and objectivity with your biased and entitled opinions!
On a serious note, you could submit player request to staff to change your Stork into Titanic in an attempt to regain 5ker without spending a dime instead of complaining and whining with curse words here.
Imo the fact that the Luxury Liner fails to enter trade lanes 9 of 10 times, even by manual flight, is by far a worse problem than the stork nerf, to bad these liners are not in game...
Why should we request to have our Storks changed into the Titanic?
Why cant the Stork be returned to the spec which we paid for and expected.
Why was this change not openly discussed on forum first> or was it?
Stork owners like the Stork, if we wanted a Titanic we would have purchased that instead.
As I have already stated, The Stork is a train. The road trains in Australia have many many trailers that can be connected which is why it is called a train.
The tug for the Stork is the same design for the Albatros and the rest of the family in this fleet. It is just longer to hold more frieght.

So much this. The audacity of these people. How DARE the balance team make a change that should have been done years ago. I mean surely there's no issue with the Stork being less than a quarter the size of other 5ks while having the most guns?
The DEMANDS for compensation, when the money it takes to exchange the ships probably amounts to two or maybe three trade runs.
That having been said, it would have been wiser to swap the models and infocards instead of the cargo holds. Would let people keep their 5ks, and also obviate the need to swap all the other stats, which by the way still needs to be done.
