Why We should keep the Cruise changes

It makes it fairer for pirates AND traders
Its realistic
It has no bearing on you unless you want to avoid using your thruster

Ok. In a nutshell, it makes things better if your a pirate and if you are a trader. Traders now dont have to worry about the pirate cruising towards them being able to engage immediately upon arrival. At the same time, pirates can count on their CDed target not being able to instantly 3 shot them.

If FTL speed in freelancer is marked at 1000u/s, since tradelanes go that fast and thiose are FTL, 350u/s is 35% the speed of light. Does anyone but me think that you would need a lot of power to maintain that?

Even if you get CDed by some NPCs (or a pirate, i suppose) you can use your THRUSTER (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thruster) to survive until you get power back. Also, you have a massive armada of bots and bats.

In fact, here is a video of a Rhino cruisin so you can SEE what this patch does http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QvPTGkCGD_8

Thank you.
