The thing I find funny is the fact that the bomber nerf was supposed to make them useless against fighters, well their actually useless against caps alone. The nova torp for one is an excellent anti-fighter/bomber weapon, and it's still not too hard to hit a fighter with a nova, the fact that it's a one shot deal makes absolutely no difference.

A good bomber pilot can dodge and is patient, so the time it takes for them to get a nova hit may have been increased, but it's still as likely as ever, the only thing that did happen was that bombers were handicapped against capital ships. I never liked the idea of a nerf that made them completely useless against fighters anyways, Not that they should be able to kill one easily, but bringing a bomber shouldn't automatically mean you're screwed when a fighter comes.

Not everyone can fire a nova at a fighter and hit, it's a skill, skills shouldn't be taken away with nerfs and deleting when some gets too good with a particular weapon. The only nerf I can think of currently that I agree with is the Raven's Talon nerf. I still own one, but many people have dropped theirs.

It just seems when things become difficult for someone to overcome they run to the balance thread instead of doing something most of us like to call "practice" I didn't magically learn how to dodge a nova one day. I'd like to think I'm pretty good at it now, but I still get caught by the occasional nova, but I think it's silly to accuse them of cheating or suddenly believe it's unbalanced.
