Old balance issues

[mjolnir]

Well I read all the replies since I posted .. and basically it's all in this one:

I'd just like to point out that players that do this really have no idea what they're doing...mounting more than two missiles on a Capship is generally a very stupid thing to do, since the minute you come up against other capships you're effed. If you want to make Capship missiles more effective I'm all for it, make them suck ammo. Otherwise, those babies need some help...

Did you really read what I said?

They are useless against other caps yes.... but they are abused by people mounting 4 or more and then going around hunting fighters as their main goal.... well yes answer is.. bring another capship against that one... well that doesn't really help against cap-whoring does it?

So make them use ammo.. so that mounting more of them makes you go trough your ammo really fast or costs you a lot of money.

Figther missiles I would also like to see more effective, for those of us who can't shoot -.-

Indeed.. make missiles "hit the button and enemy is dead weapons" for newbs...that would be great....

I know a lot of people that know how to use them....you just have to time when you fire them.. i duels they are quite easy to use.... but no just spamming them won't work.

@marauder.. if missiles don't track use CTR+T and then T to re-target the enemy....
Paralyzers don't work against caps.. since the explosion radius need to inlude the shield generator (and I don't really know where that is on like 95% of ships).
They are great against bombers.... as well as Cannonballs (some 4 CBs blast the guns off).
