' Wrote:Oh no you dont, there's no reason to change nomad equipment - it's the order equipment that needs changing, primarily in the form of higher projectile speed (700, even) so that we can at least hit the nomad ships. Right now, order weapons are in the "slow" category at 600m/s - even the bhg faction guns are 750, nomad guns are 700. Compile that with our larger, slower ships, and you begin to understand why the order doesnt stand much of a chance in battle against the nomads.
There's no reason the order's fighter weaponry cannot be rebalanced for higher projectile speed, at least matching the 700m/s of the nomad weapons.
Totally agree. Even if I found the guns with 600 m/s totally crap. Discovery need to buff all the fighters weapons speed, greatly. 700 m/s should be the minimum. At the moment, Order weapons deal great damages but are energy consumer and slow. The total opposite of the Nomads guns. In a war, when you see your ennemy got better weapon, you try to capture some and enhance yours to match the enemy weaponry (like in WWII, German and Russian increasing their guns each others to match). Order need better guns just because Nomads have already betters guns. I don't ask for uber-wtfpwnd guns, just something closely related to Nomads stats. In fact, I think Order must be in the Top 3 of the betters fighters guns in Sirius, due to their RP.
