Discovery 4.82 Beta features, bugs & suggestions

Obviously some people have not used missiles often.

Missiles are generaly useless. It's rather hard to hit people with them if they have even a basic feeling for movement and are dodging, plus the only missiles that are of any use in PvP are horrificly expensive. I waste a good 100K per launcher every time I fight with Flugkorper because my missiles don't hit. Do -not- confuse real missiles with the Swarm.

If you look at today's fighters, you will notice a complete reversal of loadout from Freelancer. Our fighters are primarily missile based, whereas FL would have you think guns are the end-all be-all.

In fact, I would like to see an upgrade on the tracking abilities of several different missiles. Capital ship missiles for sure, plus an upgrade for the fighter missiles, such as the Paralyzer and perhaps a slight one for the Cannonball. Heck, even the Firestalker (supposedly the best tracking missile in the game...) could use a bit of a boost. I cannot count the number of time one of those things missed by 2 inches.
