Yep im back again and this time yet another issue i have seen i am bringing to the table Civilian weapons are not worth the cash you pay for them it seems they don't do enough damage to merit using them Civilian companies are sinking to using Military weapons instead of Civilian weapons Freelancers as well. if they are "Civilians whould they realy be using the same weapons as the Military and Police?. I mean you dont see a Civilian walking around with a Military grade Rifle for self defense do you? No they use a Civilian version of the same weapon with similar power that can do what it is supposed to do. Defend. Ive been testing this and with Class 9 flash-points on NPC transports it takes quite a while to take them out then i tried Purple Goddess Chain guns which seem to be the most powerful civilian weapon available aven then i could bare take out a transport haveing pulses to take down the shield LFs have no chance the Pulses drain most of the battery and when it comes to to drain the hull they can barely dent it.they should be buffed to be on par with Faction weapons i mean this isFreelancernotFaction-lancer
I wonder: why do Civilians need same powerful weapons as Military ships? Do you walking around on streets with assault rifle? best is you can have is pistol. So why do Civilians, without such combat skills as Military, which supposed defend homeland, to have powerful weapons to defend just themself?
You really overpowering Civilians now, Eagle with Flashpoints is much more then enough to defend from pirates (while actually Civilians should hire police/mercs for defend, not to kill all pirates alone, but hey - Disco!)
... search is your friend. Repetative topic is very repetative. I wager you'd love admin cannons for your pirate IDd Shadow, with an unrestricted ZOI and license to pew anyone with a /1 ?
Yea, I've grown quite suspicious about the motives people have for making these kinds of requests.

Well,there are 10 class code weapons which can deal a great damage. And there are 9 class weapons which are faster and (in my opinion) better than other strong weapons.
10 Class weapons,called "codes" are civilian ones,which are some of them too harmful but too slow,some of them fast and some of them not too fast.
So you can use those code weapons if you insist on having strong weapons.

AD I want to assure you of a few thing with out sounding like im being smart
1 I would hate to have admin cannons cause that takes all the fun away
2 a Shadow would be nice but ive come to the conclusion ill never get one
3 Unlimited ZOI i can almost get using certain IDs Such as Pirate ID
Also @ Rita
Im talking about Independant Pirates here I know i mention Civilian but it could in some respects since it isnt like Hessians or OC becaonsidered a "Civilian Pirate" or atleast thats the way i see it
and lastly about Codes
1 LFs cant Mount them
2 LFs cant Mount them
and 3 LFs cant Mount them
I only use LFs >_>
and the occasional GB
Oh and also to Jaydee
what about Escort divisions? for companies like Interspace Commerce? Bowex? Dauman? or Kishiro? they all use Civilian weps but have instead gone to using thier respective houses weaponry why shouldn't they use civilian weaponry? they are civilians No?
So, you're complaining that "civilian guns don't have enough power to kill things," when in reality what your complaining about is "LFs don't have enough power to kill things."
use your vessel's speed, that is the main weapon. Also, dont forget to separate weapons groups, so when you are shootging hull, no energy is being wasted on pulses.
Also, dont forget about your skill level. Practice and patience. Light fighters are the vessels of meditation, to use them in fight properly you need to be able to clear your mind and concentrate all attention on the dodging (later, when you will dodge automatically, concentrate on the aiming)
Flashpoints are now good and can do quite a bit of damage.
Civilian guns are not bad, but they aren't -that- good either. Civilian guns were meant for civilians, don't need that much firepower to defend yourself eh?
Pirates are just civilians gone rogue, doesn't mean they suddenly have access to more powerful weapons.
Now let my suggest a compromise. We have black market munitions right? Now let's created some "illegally modified" ship weapons. Such as a flashpoint with slower refire and more damage. Naturally, anybody caught having these weapons are a target to all lawfuls. This will at least give some more variety to the "underground".
