the reason the snac does no damage to the bomber that fires it, is becasue the anti matter goes through the ship it hits. the explosion is just the antimatter that is converted into energy from the matter it touches.

Killing such an opponent with the games most slow projectile weapon is a satisfaction no?
Of course.
Me personally, I take pride in psyching out my opponents. I play mind games during fighter duels, constantly switching tactics and faking people out. This is where I say jousting bombers is acceptable if you know what you're doing. Make them think they've got you and then dodge so the shot whiffs. They waste precious powerplant and you have a ten-second window of easy pickings against a frustrated opponent in a big slow fighter. Don't do this often though as it's extremely risky.
I am not a great pilot nor a great shot. But I've beaten people who should have made easy pickings of me because I made them frustrated and got them to make bad mistakes.
As a bomber with a SNAC, the trick is to be patient. When fighting the bomber, the trick is to make them lose patience.

Dodge.
Strafe.
Don't joust with a bomber, because thats your prime stupidity there, sir. And another thing?
Stop using this: :crazy:
It makes you look like an idiot.

You know, I love it how bomber pilots are...scared to take damage from missiles. If they launch missiles at you, they are jousting you, so TAKE THAT STUPID HIT, take those 300 damage per hit, take our your shield, but just SN their face.
its all about taking your chance. Risking, if the guy has no MR to finish you off, you can soak up that damage only to bash the guys face in.

I am in America, so I can't PvP.
But on a side note, I actually think SNACKS should be buffed. You need hoards of bombers to do shield damage. (hull is fine though)

' Wrote:Hmmm, not really, you don't see me firing an anti armour bullet and die to it. Who knows, maybe it works like a fugast round for anti tank, the explosion is very small, but the damage is in the sudden burst of air pressure inside the vehicle, where, from the impact, the parts of inside armour is turned to shrapnel to tear apart anyone who is inside.
The snak, however, is an antimatter cannon, so, the idea is it cuts trhough it's target without an explosion. If there is no explosion, why should I die? Sure, decompression is one thing, but I am sure my own armor can deflect shards and all.
EDIT: Right, I need to be immature.
OLOL UR MOMS FAECC SIS O UGLEY

See the whole thing is right except there is a explosion of the Antimatter vs matter, destroying itself and anyone or thing in the perimeters.
And its ANTIMATTER meaning will react to anything with Matter. (Ship,Humans,anything that has matter)
antimatter reacts with any matter it touches, annihilating itself and the thing made of matter surrounding it. YOUR SHIP.?
So there you go? If your too close to a Supernova Antimatter Cannon Blast!! You should die.
Dont believe me go ahead and read for yourself.

An awfully specific objection when there's so many other things in Freelancer that are, from a physics standpoint, highly questionable...

Didn't vote because I do not like any of the options.
SN has the right power.:D
However it is way too easy for a bomber to kill a Fighter with a SN :nono:
It is way too difficult for a Fighter to kill a bomber :angry:
And it is very difficult not to joust a bomber. They are way too manouvrable.
So in my oppinion I would leave the SN power as it is but make the bombers less manouvrable
