MISSLES

missles do need some work. the arguement that you need to learn how to aim missles just sounds weird. i could see having to aim rockets but not missles. not trying to take away from those that are good at aiming but i'm nearly convinced that my bad aim is terminal whether it's because of lack of skill or varing lag from being 1/2 way across the world from the server. the point of missles being better would be to level the playing field. why do you think people fly so many capships? one of the main reasons (i think) is the extremes in skill level in fighter sized craft. your either good or you suck, plain and simple. missles could level that gap in skill out so that people don't jump straight to capships.

missles should track 100 times better....but in return lower the max ammo you can carry. i know there is a universal ammo amount but i'm fine with seeing all ammo reduced. i can't realistically see a lightfighter carrying 70 missles/mines.

capship missles are weak in my experience. sure they do nice damage, if they hit. i never scored a hit with my missle turrets in the months i had them on my destroyer and i fought plenty of bombers/fighters. as for them using ammo...i don't like the idea, capships would have hundreds of missles in reserve for extended fights. if missles become better, the only thing that would limite their use would be high energy consumption.
