Discovery 4.85: Update 1 Released - Kazinsal - 10-06-2009
' Wrote:I don't think bombers were fixed, they were just nerfed./disagree
It's good that Bombers can't be used against VHF, as it's not their primary role.
I was looking forward to an update like this which forces bombers to be used for Anti-cap or as a Transport eliminator.
But with the Razor gone now, it's useless against a Gunboat.
Even with SNAC on, gunboats are agile and bomber weapons are piss all...
Bombers are fine the way they are. If anything they should up the Upholder's bots and bats to 100/100 and maybe another sliver of regen to the power plants.

Hmm, it seems that my (and/or Kress' thoughts) were taken. I'm anxious how this will change this. Hopefully things will go better with my housing and I can be back on.

' Wrote:Zoner Whales can no longer dock in House territories.
The route between Gran Canaria and Freeport XV has been (effectively) eliminated.
Minefield in O-49 removed.
I guess this is the big Zoner break (up) folks had been asking for. Powertraders will move to corporations.
The break-up of the CoZ can be seen as well.
' Wrote:As with all updates give your feedback.
Discovery is a work in progress and manytimes we (generic everyone who is in some form of development, on any project) miss things, or get things out of sckedaddle.
However.
I kindly suggest people to get out of their boxes and play for a week or two before posting complaints.
Or not.

' Wrote:The break-up of the CoZ can be seen as well.I'm sure there are a good many Zoner haters very happy about that. Now, they can go pick on someone else!!:yahoo:
Or not.
When I first logged in to this mod, I was a very unhappy camper. But, the more I thought about it, the more some things made sense. Bombers needed a nerfing....end of discussion. Some TAZ bombers will be downgraded to Eagles most likely.
I am very happy with the Zoner Gunboat. Thank you for that. It may actually do well in combat (although I would like to have seen the mine launcher stay on it). I also like the design of it much more.
I am worried about destroyers and larger. Those ships are SUPPOSED to be tough to take down but with better bomber weapons, it would only take two. Logically, shouldn't it take a swarm of them? I mean, a Juggy with Cap 8 armor should be a nightmare to take down IMO as should a destroyer. Just a thought.
I also have a concern regarding trade. I'm all for ZG tagged ships not being allowed in house space except as designated. I run a DL transport so I'm not really affected. I used to run deuterium to Freeport 2 in Bering and then leave with hull panels for wherever. They sold at 200/unit (give or take, I don't remember the exact amount), now the base is a selling point at over 3,000/unit.
My point? When I trade, I consider the return trip before I head out. I limit my visits to House space but they do have things Zoners need that they can't produce themselves.
I probably need to research trade a bit more but on the whole, I'm not complaining.
Good work, developers, on this update.

Great... All the GB for nothing... The bombers now can take down a GB shield faster than the GB can take his... its ridiculus...
Discovery 4.85: Update 1 Released - Kazinsal - 10-06-2009
Okay, I just got pwned by a GB in less than two minutes. We need a new Bomber shield class.
