I just fear the day when my fighter will be unable to enter a fight which includes other fighters and a cap if that cap's anti-fighter/bomber weapons are 100% effective.
It's easy to theorize it all, and it all works very nice in theory.
But when I think of the fact that 80% of fights I get in include enemy capital ships, what will come of me.. I dislike getting capraped you know.
And I believe it's good time I start whining too then, lest the cap preferers hog all the whining and get their way.
There, my first prejudicial statement. Feels good, I am finally integrated well into the community.:mellow:
Also, about the whole bombers kill everything thing.. It is very far from the truth. Now I don't like to brag, but I have a lot of experience flying both bombers and fighters.
I was just in a fight half an hour ago with my bomber, two friendly fighters, and 3 enemy fighters.
Now my bomber was such an easy target for them, even when I focused on dodging solely, I kept losing big chunks of hull.
And you have no idea how hard it is to aim someone in a joust when there's 20 krakens raining down upon you. So don't lecture people on bombers being too effective against fighters, because when push comes to shove, two pilots of similar skill, the fighter shall in 95% of cases win. And even if the bomber is more skillful, he'll still probably lose.
Escorts.. well.. you can blame the server for inability to get an escort, but it's equally hard to gather bombers for that.. a balanced cap fleet and a bomber fleet take the same number of RL people, so I don't see where the handicap of either side lies.
