Why do the capital ship have to be so bad

[Tenshi Kuonji]

TL,DR;
The only ones with real power? The Devs.
/TL,DR;


Explanation:
They break things without a second thought especially when it comes to capital ships. If you're using them outside their narrow scope of "fun".
Stripped of weaponry, supposedly to "reduce server stress." Right, because heavily armed warships being, you know, armed is a problem. Instead, we get these ridiculous slot configs that make everything worse.

Sure, shields should be energy-intensive, but at least make the numbers make sense. Let's look at this absurdity:

Heavy BS Shield: 54,850u/s drain | Regen: 1312–1462
Standard BS Shield: 43,700u/s drain | Regen: 1171–1248

And then, the real kicker:

Zoner Colony Ship: 101,250/2,437,500 power
Liberty "Atlantis" Carrier: 95,050/2,251,500 power
Rheinland "Bismarck" Battleship: 101,250/2,437,500 power
Gallic "Valor" Battleship: 96,900/2,307,000 power
Remember when the Atlantis was the Liberty capship with the best core regen and capacity? Yeah, that ship now has 95K regen—and a heavy BS shield burns half its core per tick. And for what? A measly sub-1500u/s regen?

Statistically, it's a joke:

Normal BS shields take 35–37.3x their regen in power.
Heavy BS shields? 37.5–41.8x their regen in power.

And yet, they still call these "Capital Ships." My gods.

The balance team must be napping, because not only are shields barely shielding, but they’ve gutted every ounce of capship power.

Now, one guy can slowly chew through you while you struggle with:

Limited turret slots
Awkward firing angles

So, what can you do? Nothing. Just sit back and hope the devs wake up. Because right now, capital ships are nothing more than floating paperweights.
If community itself don’t bury you in hell, then you don’t have a voice.
Or maybe they just don’t care. Almost all of them act like puppets followers, ignoring everything, letting it all slip by without much...interest.
Or maybe they've already been silenced?
