ok so, when you're chasing the BH Destroyer you cannot hit it as the targeting system is off by far, the amount of damage i would've done to that thing whilst in my cruiser, would've been a whole world of pain, but this thing is bugged to the max, also the size of it? can we make it a lil bigger? because right now that things like an armoured transport turned around sideways.

Honestly, the BH ships are far superiour to any ship in the game, no wonder people buy them because there smaller than a damned pin hole.

Isn't this similar to the Osiris or the Lib Dreadnought; about how they can dodge most incoming fire...

I'm sure that to make up for their "thinness", they have reduced stats compared with other cruisers (eg: Lower armour, weapons).

This.

Fight an IMG Gunboat sometime to get the picture on an enormously painful scale.

the BHG destroyer is small - that is intended. - for that, it only has 8 turrets and a small powerplant. - its vertical turning is terrible - while its horizontal turning is OK ( that is to make sure it shows its large side in a tight turn and not turn vertically like a stick )

the targetting reticule is correct ( at least when i have tested it )

bounty hunter ships are not superior to other ships of the same class. - the destroyer is the only BHG ship that can do the kiting of an enemy - both the battleship and the battlecruiser cannot do that cause they can t fire backwards with enough turrets.

the destroyer is meant to be THE main warship of the guild in the omicrons ( just like the NPCs make use of it ) - it is relativly cheap, sturdy and - when used correctly, a good ship vs. gunboats and other cruisers.

vs. bombers, its a waste of metal - like many other cruisers.

Cosmos, it was me flying that Destroyer. And guess what - I had a bloody hard time surviving it. Yes, the aimpoint on the destroyer probably is in the above section where it shouldn't be for perfect targetting. However that would not be the only ship with such problem - the Titan has been like that the entire time since 1.0 (when you shoot from a certain direction you were very likely to miss).

Now, at least you know how to fly your Harvester cruiser, kudos. That one has just about the same front profile as the BH destroyer, it has 11 forward firing turrets and a stronger power core to boot.

the agility, armor and regens on that ship are just about the same. You were trying to overpower the BH destroyer - which was a perfectly correct thing to do. You can consider the destroyer to be lucky.
I didn't want to fight you in the first place.

Now, making balance-related discussions based on the fact that your ship got blown up is not a good idea.

I would like to point out that it was a very even fight, I was left with roughly 100 nanobots in the end. And yes, I'm dodgy, the overpowered part might not the ship. Have a nice day.

*wonders why*

... ahh I know, cause seeing and order "fleet" without a few Osiris or Carriers happens rather rarely.

When it comes to "capwhoring" BHG and Order have more in common than any other two factions.

when you see such a force - you d just want to avoid them anyway. - bit one sided, but i guess they ll do the job.

not really....usually there are only my Osiris on..unless we really need a second one..as for Carrier..usually Tenacity is on..some times 122nd's...we have alot of fighters and GBs....everytime i get online there are at least 3 fighters on.some times 1~2 GBs....i can take a SS everyday for you and you will see ppl arnt really whoring Osiris around..i rarely see 2 Osiris on at the same time..but i almost can always see at least 1 BHG BC and 1 BHG BS together in Delta...

@Jinx...Order fighters are on the way..=) even we dont have that much numbers atm....


PS: if we usually have a fleet of FEW Osiris on at the same time..i will not getting mad at having 3 BHG BS attacking Minor when there are only dozen of fighters and 2 GBs on...
