I know GBs are getting toned down in 87 to balance TS/TZ. Id just like to say that I think itd be best if they had reduced agility to be more capship-like, and less fighter-like. Instead of reducing gunpower, so they were more like the ones in the SP storyline.

I vote agility, however some Gunboats could use some help------>Turret steering KILLED the poor Bottlenose (JK) and it could use some help. Its more a case by case basis.

The ones in the SP storyline could be killed by single fighters.

Gunboat turrets are getting a DPS nerf in .87

They can't still be shot down by a single fighter? I shot down a Gallian gb in a starblazer.

so I recently started exploring Coronado. I must say you're all doing a wonderful job.
so I recently started exploring Koeln. I must say you're all doing an amazing job.
some time ago I explored Rousillon. Impressive. Particularly the music on the planet that was a nice surprise.
so I recently started exploring Omega-55. LOL... NOMADS. LOTS AND LOTS OF NOMADS. SHOOTING THINGS. I GOT THE HELL OUT OF THERE. (and I was thinking, jeez I can't remember what that one was from the news. I hope I don't run into a nomad system)
recently started exploring Omega-41. what did you guys do to the star? that new effect there, that's impressive.

I basically think that GBs just should have 0.3 of max zoom. cruisers should have 0.7 and BS full zoom
that will fix problems with uberaiming. but if you think GBs is too agile - go fly Imperator.

again - to make GBs not OP - light BGs must have weaker shield. GBs supposed to kill bombers, so its not possible to Nova it and hardly possible to SNAC it. Heavy GBs should take light ones easilly, but die to bombers faster. firepower should not be touched in my eyes at all. agility most likely then

tweak the arcs and they will still be useful for fighting big stuff but die a little faster against small stuff that can leverage the weakness

looks like devs want to try everything else first

I think this question can not be resolved with nerfs only.

I am on discord: Roal-Yr#5994, I don't log on forum more than a few times a year.

I am not making ships for FL anymore, I am making my own space game instead:

I know thats been the plan, Im saying I think reducing agility would be better than reducing dps. Not asking which do you think will happen.
