GB forward guns

[mjolnir]

I went to re-check all the forward guns (except Dragon GB which I don't have access to). And it looks like I was affected by the Kusari and Rheinland GBs which are the only ones I fly daily.

Most other ones have actually pretty generous firing arcs.

Following pictures have shots fired at maximum angles, just before the projectile disappears


Very generous - Orca - if I used the maximum angle here the projectile would disappear off the screen, yet it can't fire straight ahead - which is going to be fixed in 4.85

Quite generous - Bretonia, Liberty

Very narrow - Kusari, Rheinland

Kusari GB has the agility to point the gun pretty much where it wants... Rheinland GB does not.

So obviously the Rheinland GB forward gun firing arc should be fixed to something like the Liberty and Bretonian one.

While I'd love to see the refire changes, most people don't seem to like them.

What I however see as necessary is increasing the range to 2000m as I said. It doesn't make any sense that Cerbs, Razors and Infernos have 2000m range while the specialized forward guns have only 1400m.
