Missiles

[Jinx]

@swift:

who says that missiles should be sideweapons? - freelancer lore does not mention it... such an argument is as good as saying "missiles should be the main weapons" ( sort of like ..... well.... on a modern jet, i daresay )

apart from that, the missiles are re-balanced already for 4.85.


we could leave it as that...:

some people prefer guns - and thats right and fine, they can mount 1-8 guns on their fighters... no one will complain.

some people prefer missiles - and thats right and fine, too; they can mount 1-8 missiles on their fighters... and no one "should" complain.

some people prefer a mixed loadout - and thats.... surprise .... right and fine, too; they can mount whatever they like on their ships and no one should complain either.

that IS the freedom of choice.... the REST is up to the player. - if a player mounts 8 cannonballs on a Raven Claw and ONLY goes for vanilla fighters... its mostly the PLAYER that is somewhat the problem.... . and if someone in a vanilla fighter forgets to scan an opponent and attacks a fighter with missiles ... well, its his own doing. - there is no "mystical force" that makes me attack someone else - even if my ID card states that he s an enemy, it need not attack if the odds are against me.... especially when i m not attacked by that person.
