2 ideas to devs regarding racing / intercepting for Light Fighters

[Lennox]

You'd need to add a huge amount of strafe force to make that positioning matter. It's an interesting idea, but the ship would have to be totally gunless.

We already fly with ships that are gunless in races ^^ . Besides CDs, CMs, and Mines.

But why do guns matter when you are talking about this though? O.o

Because if you increase the strafe force it would make you impossible to hit in PvP since fighter guns aren't fast enough to compensate for such a quick burst of speed. People could use that to their advantage, so allowing no weapons compensates for that.

I'm kinda a fan of boost abilities when in cruise in general. Though, rather than increasing it to something like 435, I was rather thinking of something much higher, but also lesser uptime. Say, get like 500 m/s for three or four seconds and put them on like a one minute cooldown?

Speed as it is atm is very static, thus I wouldn't mind if there were some additions that could make it more interesting.
