4.84 was a lot better IMO... 4.82 was better also. It seems as you go farther back in disco history... life is better...
Anyways... I have said this time and time again, Bombers need an armor nerf so they're easier pray for fighters like they damn well should be.

' Wrote:4.84 was a lot better IMO... 4.82 was better also. It seems as you go farther back in disco history... life is better...Problem with that is, the GBs and Cruisers would only have to take a few shots to make them pop right open.

Pretty sure that called dodging...

Which is quite hard in some ships.
However, you are correct, dodging is the key to everything.

I'm sort of the 'new guy' around here, despite what it says on my profile and there have almost definately been some changes to the types of turrets you can get for Battleships (shield busters for BS!)
Back when anyone who could afford to buy one could fly one, you would set them up for one of two duties;
anti-cap or anti-fighter.
Back then you could buy a 'Flak turret' which was specifically 'anti-fighter'.
I would normally have at least half of the mounts with Flak turrets and the remainder Defense.
Fighters had a hard time getting close to my BS and there was no SNAC back then.....
Bring back the Flak turrets, that should even things up a bit

Well flak turrets are good, no doubt, however, I find that more than 2 are a waste.
And with flak turrets... well... they are good for swarms, but you can't exactly aim them.

Well I didn't read all that 10 pages but my votes are ...
YES for 2 BS per player.
Not that I'm a BS whore, my own is mostly parked in Leeds. But I'd like a Liberty Navy Dreadnought as well.
I do not over-use my BS, having just one more would be nice. Don't forget that's about 2 billions credits for a good battleship.
NO for the increase of gun speed.
It's simply a big NO, battleships are the best balanced ships in this damn mod, do NOT change them !
Just one thing should change on them, that's their missile turret .... when I say it should change, I talk ONLY about their damages, no more.

Meh if anyone asks me battleships should get 10x more hull, so they last longer in a battle...
Battleships - Birdtalon - 08-23-2009
Just leave Battleships alone. If you want to be good vs fighters then get Solaris and Flak turrets.
@Mickk: Flak turrets still exist - I have some on my BS:P
