Shields on capital ship

[Slimalou]

Unfortunately the game will never be realistic and some sacrifices will be made such as Cap ships having laughable bad shielding. If the devs did a 180 and went straight realistic it would take a wing of bombers to even bring down a dreads shielding as such time all the sub players would start complaining. The devs would also be more heavy handed when it comes to enforcing ZOI for those who wish to fly caps where ever they like for easy kills. Cap ships/equipment would like SHOOT up in cost.

While I think it would make RP on the server very interesting to have realistic ships (such as giving the bigger caps a real fear factor if your team did not have your own) the sub player base would lose their minds. Though I think giving the bigger ships main weapons a big punch and reliability factor at the cost of a long (say 20 - 30 sec) reload time might be something worth testing out.
