Inferno for everyone? - Rapur - 04-02-2010
Yeah, probably you are right. Let them have their infernos. Razors can do the same job to fightershields, and they can even do huge hull damage aswell.
2-3 well equiped fighters (not with infernos) can kill a gunboat, 3-4 can encounter a cruiser, and for Battleship class vessels we still have the good ol' Bombers ^^

You can kill battleships with fighters too, you know. We killed many Legates with the Red Barons using only fighters.

Am I the only one that sees a problem there?
On the one side, when we're talking about balance vs. lore, balance usually wins.
Almost always in fact. Well, as far as I'm aware (I could be wrong though).
Yet when people claim it's okay for outcasts to have better tech just because of the lore, few people complain.
This I don't quite understand. Can anyone explain to me how this couldn't be viewed as double standards?

Only Outcasts can use Inferno because
Quote:After Corsairs created their fearsome pulse weapon - Tizona del Cid - Outcasts knew that they need to hurry with an adequate answer. The answer was a pulse weapon of their own, codenamed "Inferno". Inferno has long cooldown time and requires enormous amounts of energy to operate, but it deals 20 times more damage than Tizona; it is most effective against capital ships and transports.

I think the civies need better weapons so I have to agree with Marshal, the pirates always get the good gear. While the others have to worry about what they can equip.

Outcasts and Corsairs aren't some rogue pirates. They are lawfuls in their owned systems just like LN in new york.
Inferno is part of diversity. Making generic gun of it's image kills diversity. Deal with it. You can't have bargests for everyone same as you can't have del cids for everyone same as you can't have infernos for everyone. Becouse it would simply ruin the way of balancing this server goes.

well a lot of people get offered these guns, most say no. It comes down to pride.
Do you want an easy kill, or a kill you had to earn?
Also what about the RP pride of having your own nations guns on your ship?

That's right. Doc Jameson, I, offered SCRA an Inferno as a "reward" if they managed to beat us in an event... arvg rejected the offer.
We won, of course, but still he has more faction pride than some of you lot.
And really, stop whining about the Inferno... few people get ganked as much as the Outcasts so we bloody well deserve a tool we can use to fight off the lolcaps.

The issue is that the Civilians are just that. CIVILIANS. They aren't supposed to have the best tech, if they had the same weapons as militaries or whatnot, what's to stop them from smuggling without fear of being outclassed by the authorities?

Civilian Del Cids?
Debilitators.
Hmm.... :sleep:

Kidding right?
If we go down that route, whoever gets 'better' stuff gets 'ganked' more. Its a self-perpetuating circle. If people think a 1v1 is unfair because one side has something the other doesn't, they'll throw in another person. So you need better tech because (in this example) the majority of your fights are 2v1... it then gets better, and your opposition throw more folks in because its 'unfair' that one person can fight off two people just due to their available ships and weapons. Etc.
where did it run says Wrote:You can't have bargests for everyone
As far as the power plant goes, yes, you can.
*Points at Waran*
where did it run says some more Wrote:you can't have del cids for everyone
Covered that already.
he doesn't shut up does he Wrote:you can't have infernos for everyone
Not yet ...
Disclaimer: Not that it really matters whether civilians get an inferno or not. As far as dogfights go, there's the mini-razor (which is fine) and debs already, which are just detuned tizonas. Corsairs can use tizonas and debs, Outcasts can use debs and the inferno. The above was just for arguement's sake.
In fact, this thread reminded me to do something which I stupidly forgot to do. Need the server up for it though ..
