IT would be greatly appreciated if Bounty Hunter gunboats were A BIT less agile as to the rest of all the other gunboats out there?
It's seriously ridiculous.
Certainly didn't quit Eve to face nano exploits again...

They're easy. Just bird-dog them and force them to trade shot for shot.
Can't dodge much at a distance of 100.

Can't handle them in your lunchbox? Are you talking about the Orca or the Gunship? Please be specific so I can head over to the server and make the changes at once. Its an outrage they've been allowed to operate for so long!

They're getting a re-adjustment next version. Don't sweat too much practicing to defeat the gunship's with your own gunboat - next version they're fighter killers, so they'll paper-thin to other capital ships.
Edit: This is just from what I've heard. The new Gunship model only seems to have 4-5 turrets so that's why I presumed it was anti-fighter.
In general, I believe gunboats are more anti-fighter/bomber than anti-capital. So they become less of a "jack-of-all-trades" ship class, to be a specialised support ship (good for escorting capital ships).

Great that's exactly what I wanted to hear, thank you.
And are Gunboats getting any re-adjustment I should be aware of?

Mhmm, the new gunship won't even be able to scratch a gunboat's shield, but it will be a bomber killer, according to Jinx, I believe.

well - it has of course pretty much identical stats... cuase its a direct replace. - but its RP purpose is a bomber killer, yes.
cannot delete equipment on ships that are replaced without a playerwipe... so everything else stays the same. - but in RP...
BHG s use the gunship to hunt bombers / fighters and the orca to hunt capital ships. - and its a RP server:)

Woot? BH gunship is second most agile gunship in game (first is armored transport), orca is agile as hell (I had one time ago and I was able do same things as I do with hacker gunship).
Your problem is between chair and keyboard.
//sorry I am little bit smoked, didnt saw at first look that important word "LESS" in Erik's first post.... sorry again:)

Naw I dont believe thats true, I killed an Orca some days ago, it wasnt as nearl as agile as those little pests of gunships.
But like someone said earlier, the problem isnt in how agile it is, but how much damage it copes and deals, as a Gunboat standard, is still fairly outbalanced.
