' Wrote:alternative weapons are a necessity ... but the ones proposed are slightly OP.
Not really.
' Wrote:GRN weapons are balanced for "the big new enemy" that is not exactly a terroristic one - but has to fight according to public rules and a set amount of enemies. - they are also balanced for the rather large gallic ships. ( many gallic ships are a good deal larger in size than many sirius ships - but their weapons are superior )
The Wild have many more enemies in Sirius than the GRN do, and the proposed guns would make our ships less powerful, as opposed to more powerful.
' Wrote:the fighter weapons suggested are basicly OK - but i would also suggest a projectile speed decrease to 600 or 650. - we shouldn t compare them to the BEST public guns and add a little bit on it - but we should take the most AVERAGE public guns and work on from there.
No, we specifically want 700m/s guns, something else can be decreased instead. 700m/s is pretty much a must.
' Wrote:in other threads it was said that "stats are only secondary, skill is what counts" - and while that argument goes both ways - it would work very much for the more exclusive factions reputation to ( for once ) ask for average gear - instead of top notch gear.
We want the best tech available to public factions, so we can still be the feared Wild. People should see our ships and go,
"Oh crap, I can kiss ever seeing my wife again goodbye. I am going to die"
' Wrote:So you admit to that you want these guns for pvp and that the Wild is a almost purely pvp faction? Interesting.
It's what people want us to be, so we're gonna be that.
The Wild should have guns up there with some of the finest guns available, like those available to the Phantoms, Outcasts, GRN etc.
The main activities of the Wild are killing people, it comes with the territory of having 98% of Sirius as your enemies.
but don t many a factions have similar claims? to be feared and all.... there are also many factions with many enemies in many places they go to - wh ich still have to stick to rather inferior weapons.

I seem to recall somewhere you said that you didn't actually want people to think that, and you wanted people to try and go according to lore regarding that the nomads didnt want to whipe everyone out?
Nobody can force a type of rp upon you, if you choose the pvp-ish approach, it's your decision and you shouldn't blame it on the rest of the community.

anyway - you answered all my concerns.
Yeah, we'll only be using a maximum of 50% of these guns on our ships anyway, it's usually two Nomad guns per fighter.
And no, I think many factions should have better guns.
Gaians, LWB, Unioners, Bundies, BAF etc. They all deserve much better guns.
The BD could do with having the GC's gun, and the GC need a new gun. Cause I've noticed the BD using GC guns cause they prefer them, and the GC not using their own guns cause it's too much drain on the Blossom or Eagle.
But that's a different arguement altogther.

Nope, we act in defence, and we're the deniable ops wing of the Nomads.
Sirius chose to hate us, we're just giving them what they want. If they don't want diplomacy, so be it. We'll shoot them instead.
In other words, learn to properly use the guns you got before asking for more cool toys.
Hi. Thank you for your extremely constructive post. Since you obviously noticed this thread, raegegegeed, and decided to reply without reading _any_ of the posts in this thread (in that order), let me point out some previous information.

Overall, I like Akura's idea. The stats can be whatever the balance team wants them to be, but we would really appreciate being able to have some kind of variety in our weapon loadouts.
' Wrote:... Yeah, we're not asking for overpowered guns, just guns that are as good as the best public guns available. The Wild have the knowledge of the Nomads behind them, they're not gonna cough up Flashpoints, people should fear our shooters, not laugh at them. :/
Cheers for the feedback guys.
And for a faction that has the most enemies in the game, who has to fight the largest variety of ships and factions, I don't think asking for the best guns publically available is unreasonable at all.
' Wrote:and the Wild produce the best human tech in Sirius.
as the Wild are epic engineers and have the knowledge of the Nomads to back them up.
Lot's of other Factions are the best in something else, yet they do not benefit from that Lore. Giving stronger Weapons to another Group is just unfair. Not only balancing, the Faction could get lot's of negative Stuff like:
"Lemme join, I want epic Gunz"
"Gank 'em more, they've got better Stuff than we"
"can I haz ur guns plz?"

Sure you don't want Faction Flashpoints, but I guess you get it.

We'll have guns like the Outcasts do.

That happens anyway. It would happen even if we had crap tech.

The Wild refuse to share their guns with anyone who isn't Nomad.
