mini razor.

[Markam]

War and conflic fuels development, if some sod has a bigger gun than you, you'll build yourself one just like it, steal the idea? sure, maybe steal a working unit? sure as hell doesnt sound unrealistic to me, the concept that order, or any little faction like it has some huge edge over ENTIRE houses, is just complete nonesence, the stationary battleships in bretonia have some pretty impressive weaponry, not entirely unlikely they'd make a smaller version for their fighters, if others have been capable of it.

About the Inferno, that is a very hard issue, on fighters its really not important, mercs and most of theoutcasts allies abuse it on bombers, but fighters its not going to imbalance anything, the capital ship versions on the other hand, are much more difficult, seeing as they seem to give a huge edge if you use them, and it should be universal, unless razors on cap ships are brought up to inferno levels in terms of balance, like the fighter inferno compared to the fighter razor.

As far as I was aware the Mini Razor is considered officially exempt from roleplay loadout requirements, same as the Supernova.

No longer active online due to a dwindling amount of non-PvP (trading, pirating, mining, etc.) fun in the new version.

Yep, giving one or two factions the inferno, mini razor, and SNAC would make the entire game one-sided. True, we're supposed to use what we've got as far as each faction's weapons are concerned and RP instead of PvP, but the above weapons are the only way to go, if only because everyone has one. Its just like with armor upgrades, you have to get MK VIII or you're dead.

Here that great Idea about SN equivalents for each house fits in.
Sorry I know that won't happen:(

I disagree. I flew my Greyhound for 16~ hours without any armor, and made at least twice as many kills as I had deaths, and successfully liberated over 10 million credits through pirating. Armor is only needed if you are planning on killing Capital Ships.

Simply put, making the mini razor and SNAC universal saves the devs a lot of coding to give everyone their own uber weapons. While it would be idyllic, it's fine the way it is.

Heh, this is aimed at me. Unfortunately, Mr. Benitez, the weapon I used to kill you on my Bounty Hunter Raven's Talon is perfectly legitimate for me to use and completely universally available. Zoners hawk 'em to the whole wide world, or sector, rather.

Role-play is not the be all and end all.

im pretty sure everyone can use a mini razor. I had one before i got sanction and i'm an outcast. Nobody botherd me about having the gun (fellow outcast and allies)

Okay... let's take a big cleansing breath shall we?

Yes, We offer the mini razor. NO... it's not for everyone who manages to dock on our base and come up with the flax. We do maintain neutrality so we don't clamp down on it as others might with their technology. That isn't to say we're happy seeing folks who clearly wouldn't have access to it any other way... to go around sporting one. You can purchase them privately as well. We have no control over that.

Balance? Well, sure... if you are seriously into maintaining a proper ship, best to stay within the guidelines of your faction, if you wish to be taken seriously. Period.

Heck, I'd love a firefly missile launcher for my gunboat, but that IS NOT going to happen. It is only available through the Blood Dragons... and guess what... I can't think of a roleplay situation that would justify having such a weapon aboard my ship. Boo Hoo, I can't have it... and remain within the scope of my CHOSEN role. Guess I just have to get over it.

Don't get me wrong, I am not saying that it would be impossible, but I really don't care to enter into a debate every time someone scans my ship and sees that little jewel mounted. Rule of thumb... talk to others in your clan and be sure that what you got is appropriate to your CHOSEN role. If not, then prepare to be called on it by others.

It's just THAT simple.

nuff said?
