A Bit Of A...Shift...

[P*Funk]

As for not being able to get away anymore, totally not true. I run in a freighter and a couple of nights ago I did a run solo because I didn't feel like hunting for someone to join me. Well, I ran into 4, count em, FOUR pirates around huston. Becuase I was looking ahead I managed to drop out of the TL early so when they came to give chase I was already in cruise moving away. It can be done but you have to be on your toes.

Well what if they're at a JH or a JG? You can't really get on your toes when they can fire at you before you even get your HUD back.

And if the balance is perfect why are CMs useless? Before CDs were useless... now CMs... there should be a way to make both potent. They each seem to be symbolic for one or another cause.

And yes, why not make the CDs effectiveness balanced on their purpose. Faster for smaller burst radius, slower for higher radius. That seems to be a common balance tactic. Torpedoes are more powerful but slower and missiles vice versa. Its just logical. I don't see why everyone thinks its okay when we see a very common piece of equipment made useless even when employed as designed by the original designers and even the current modders.
