' Wrote:Because even without SNAC or SUPEROWNXORNOVA or anything else of that kind, you can put up a fight against a gunboat with 3 or 4 bombers.
You just proved my point. What's the point in flying a ship if you stand no chance against another ship unless you have two or three wingmen? What if you're up against two Gunboats? Do you suddenly need 5 or 6 or 7 fighters/bomber? See where I'm going with this? If a large group of Gunboats is greater than a large group of fighters/bombers, then what is the point in fighters and bombers?
And if 3-4 fighters/bombers are needed to take out a Gunboat, how many are needed to take out a Cruiser? 6? 7? You could probably take one down with 3 or 4 Gunboats though. It's a lot easier to get together 3 more people than 6.
For those of us that enjoy flying fighters more than capital ships, the Supernova is a God-send. The suggestion to remove/nerf it has been brought up many times in the passed, this is not the first and nor will it be the last time.
The Supernova has remained consistant throughout the previous updates. The only nerf I recall was to stop duel-firing SNACs, but that was an energy nerf not a damage nerf. So, if the Developers haven't done anything to change the Supernova despite the requests and complaints, doesn't that tell you something?
