I'm gonna get lynched for this, but...
my message is go and have fun and stop worrying what everyone else is doing.

I think it is asking too much for people to voluntarily nerf their own loadouts. Look at the number of people on this thread who are justifying their position e.g. "I've only got 3", "I've always used them". Please don't waste time like this.

Look around at all ships of all sizes. People look at stats on equipment. People use the best they can afford. It is one of the fascinating parts of the game.

Those turrets are widely available. People are not using guns which are faction specific or anything.

It is a simple mistake that they currently have the power to damage ration that they do.

Is it lame everyone has the same optimized loadout? A bit. But most people use the same set of shields and armour.
Is it desiable? No.
Is it going to get fixed? Yes.
Is it worth getting heated about? Not in my opinion.

Our characters are not idiots. The stats as they are represent a ficitional world.
In that world the Cerb is the best gun. It is OORP for people to nerf their own loadout.
Just as much as it would be to say "I only like level 7 shields".

I agree with everone who says it should be balanced in the next release but until then let people use whatever equipment is available.

It is the only way to be at peace. Otherwise everone ends up either justifying themselves or claiming to be more virtuous than the next. This is just too devicive.

Just for the record I don't fly gunboats at all.


I'm sure AoM is just about to agree with me. :D
