Making snubs more appealing

[Oldum]

This illustrates my opinion pretty well:

[13:52:42] Haste: In general the bomber class is extremely limited and bland atm while it's one that should see a lot of use in a server filled with cap and gb spam
[13:53:02] Haste: Giving it more love might see more people climbing into the natural counter, fighters, as well

There are quite a few plans to do this in the works.

As for fighter-versus-capital balance, I don't think it's very far off as it is. Make fighters better against capitals and bombers have no reason to exist. Make fighters worse and you make capitals/GBs - that already offer more value-per-player, if we're perfectly honest - even more appealing to the average player.

Fighters have a really good niche already which is taking on other fighters and bombers. It's just that without a good pool of bombers to shoot at, there's very little reason to grab a fighter. I think addressing that "issue" will increase the number of fighters we see zipping around.

There are also some plans in the works to create more interesting loadout options for the various fighter types, and you should see more of those plans soon. It's quite likely the whole "noobtube argument" will be addressed by that as well.

So basically, from making bombers worth to fly should we be expecting the increase of fighters, as caps wouldn't be able to safely counter bombers, while fighters couldn't do much about fighters ? I thought it was suppose to be like this for long now.
