I was thinking (yea that happeneds) after reading some suggestion about making us obsolete to auto aiming weapons, i noticed there is a turret for almost every weapon but there is no missile turrets for fighters. Now its just an idea.. so thing about it before you throw the first rock:), have fun voting.

If they are indeed energy based, much like a gunboats, not being able to shoot two at a time...sure

i was thinking like cannonball missile turret and others with a bit lower stats.. like ant fighter turret got.

But energy turrets might work as well.

And only turrets...would prevent LFs from using them much, while, at the same time, allowing transports and freighters some protection against pirates.

I think we have already enough missile spam in certain areas of Sirius. Also, most of the fighter turrets aim backwards, the missiles would be useful only on freighters, Border worlds line of fighters, and a few chosen ones.

I'd rather see Transport missile turrets, weaker than GB missiles, maybe with worse tracking. Might give the huge transports some chances to survive. They are in the lowest part of the food chain now.

Interesting idea, I admit it sounds good


one problem

Transports can mount then, so if they drain energy on fighters, chances are the transports can chain fire them with only a moderate loss of energy

maybe have ammo for them or something.. so it will be limited as well. and spaming missiles is about the person.. you can have someon mounting 4 missile turrets right now.. but as we all know one CD makes that "spammer" go puff in flames.

i know what you mean. i have fighters and bombers that dont have CD.. more in the past but still. A missile spammer will spam.. you just take your time avoiding until the spammer runs out of [Image: spam.png] and you show him how its done.. Using missiles properly is also something you must learn.. And all of you know that.. spammers VS experienced fighters rarely win.

sounds like a nice little idea

hopefully we will see some of these weapons in-game.
