Discovery 4.82 Beta features, bugs & suggestions

[Nightfall]

Suggestion: Weaker mines that do not use ammo but energy? Say maybe do 2500 damage for people who do not have the money to worry about using mines that chances are they may not need....Or if not for mines how about countermeasures.....

Yes, in like flak 88 they had mines and CMs that took energy, not ammo. Makes this a lot cheaper... Specially with nuke mines.

You guys are really cheap, the Swarm Missile is cheap enough. Now a mine that doesn't use ammo too? I can agree to that only if it has like 30 shield damage and 90 hull damage. So, yes, you can spam those as much as you like but as I said 30/90 not 2500.

energy countermeasures: yes, just to counter the Swarm spammers.

EMP (shieldbusting) mine: cheap trick imo. we have a lot of shieldbusters as is, use them.

Another suggestion: lower the mine carrying capacity, 70 is way too much. I've seen a lot of spammers lately with no fighting skills whatsoever. Dodging those mines just prolongues the fight.

Suggestion to the mine/missile spammers: learn to shoot! what's the purpose of all those guns we have?
