4.75 Beta Release

[Wrath]

Honestly I'd like to say in the last patch, turrets were stil stronger than missiles. Why? Because missiles move at 300 km/s. Turrets on battleshisp shoot at over 4 times this velocity. This plus the semi-ubiquitous missile dead zone on almost every capital ship makes missiles near worthless. Reducing their power to any degree is not a step in the right direction. Most people are buying the ships that are "missile proof". The only reason to even have the missiles is the chance that they might hit for that 7k damage, but usually they just don't.

Personally I thought missile non-hit percentage, weighted with the delay in reaching the target balanced them with the turrets. If you are depending on missiles, after about 6 seconds you can tell if they are hitting; If you move to redirect your fire (which will take at least 6 seconds, plus 6 seconds for the missiles to reach the target..) in that time a ship like the osiris with its heavy lasers will pulverize you. Why might you value my opinion? I've tried every battleship , and almost every cruisier/gunboat........ not to mention I have yet to lose a battleship battle.
