well in my opinion there is sickness in this game. the problem with the cap ships and transporters, is that fighters are actually useless against them.
lets say i am a police in liberty and i want to make sure people don't smuggle stuff, even if find someone with "train" taking drugs, i cant do anything to him with fighter. so therefor i need to work my ass to buy some strong cruiser or what? and since most of the people use cap ships to transfer (and apparently fight), there is no chance in the world for fighter to do anything but support (like what, destroying bombers?).
besides, its also ruin the NPCs in game. an outcast destroyer can just sit and kill every npc ship, without even taking serious damage.
Im flying a fighter now as a bounty hunter and i must say, i feel useless to oppose and enforce (and no, i dont want to fly a bomber, thanks).
p.s
the solution is, remove those ridiculous shields and hulls strength of cap ships.
so the question for, why faction will use fighters against individuals who use battleships?
the answer will be, that a squadron of fighters WOULD be able to take out battleships (and not 1 bomber, which is also kinda funny...).
