i purchased FL to have fun and play but i simply cannot enjoy this game simply for the fact that a 550 mill dreadnaught cannot defeat 2 40 mill gunboats. does anyone else see anything wrong with that... i mean what is the point of grinding to buy a cap if its no better than a starflier...... im on to other games

Don't fly caps, fly something more versatile. Dreads aren't meant to be the 'kill-all' ship.

It is somewhat interesting to read the opinion of a "Rochester Ranseur" on the current state of the mod, though.

And by interesting, I mean funny and mildly tragic.

And that is why I fly a fighter. Things could only go uphill from there. Also two fighters are enough to take down a cruiser as well.

Also, don't F1 when you're losing. It's bad form.

Big caps are for caps. 2 gb's with razors and missiles can def take down a dread. Dreads' are for other battleships, battlecruisers, cruisers, destroyers etc...Thing is those gb's would be screwed against a couple of fighters/bombers for the same reason your ship went down against them.

Don't patrol with your cap, leave it docked at a base in an area you want to be in. Fly something else until you see a ship large enough to be a good match, then head back and get your cap. Its just luck of the draw, you could run into a cruiser that might go down easily, or might come across a couple of bombers or gb's that are too hard to hit and can easily out manoeuvre you. Some may call it 'metagaming' but as far as I'm concerned, if you dock at the same base as your cap, and never fought the ship you want to pursue, you're fine. Nothing oorp about walking off the deck from your scout ship and onto the bridge of your battleship. But hey, you can always hire a freelancer to scout with/for you for the same reason.

you gotta understand one thing that there has to be counters for different ships. Bomber vs Dred. 2vhf vs GB.

As I say this there are guns that u can mount on your cap to make things easier for yourself. Nothing is really set in stone. try Solaris, flank cannons, missiles, cruiser/battleship turrets etc.

Also a CAU8 does wonders Big Grin
