Do you think making SNAC useless vs snubs was a good idea?

[Nepotu]

Back when i just started playing i got SNAC'ed many times in a fighter and it didnt make me go whine to the admins " Grrrraaa, crying, this is not fair!!!!! I was flying straight and this guy killed me!!! Do something about this or im gonna call my mommy!! "

Instead my thoughts were " Ingenious, the way he positioned himself for one perfect aimed hit, and the way he decided to recieve damage, all the way calculating and determening my move pattern, to hit me properly. Damn i gotta learn this freakishly skilled fighting system!!!! "

I said it once and will ask you this. Why didnt you opt for a slower version of SNAC, not the useless one??? It was not easy to hit a snub with 280 m/s weapon, imagine how difficult would it be with a 200 m/s weapon. Still good against caps, but much harder against snubs.

And someone mentioned that bombers were intended to die to fighters, this is not true.

Bombers should have a harder and more difficult time vs fighters, not being useless against them.
Why not totaly nerf gunboats also, since im pretty sure i've seen a solo gb pilot killing a cruiser on many ocassion, and gunboats were ment to kill snubs, right????
Hell, nerf cruisers too, because im sure a Cruiser expert will decimate a BS noob.

Instead when your a noob who flyes straight, dying a couple of times is actually good for you. Cause you wont stay noob for a long time, this way you only supported noobeism. When you go hard on a noob, he learns quite fast.
They did so to me, and i was grateful, not whiny and pissy

LONG LIVE THE OLD SNAC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Finally someone that I can agree with. Everyone was a nub at the beginning. The first few weeks when I started playing on Disco I couldn't survive more than 2-3 jousts with a bomber but I never complained about a game mechanic, never got butthurt like others. Dying over and over kept me going and slowly started to learn how to dodge a SNAC. You can't say that is the hardest gun to dodge. When shields down you run ezpz. Even so being one of the easiest things to avoid people still complained about a game mechanic that worked for so many f***ing years. I don't understand why change it now and not when was implemented. Back in 4.85-4.86 bombers were wreking vhfs and no one was crying to their mama when they were getting killed. People here are getting more and more pathetic as the years go by.

LONG LIVE THE OLD SNAC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
