' Wrote:cap6 hacker gs vs cap8 liberty gunboat ? In order for liberty gunboat to lose pilot must be utter fail with gunboats.
Not at all, I've seen it done on several occasions. The hacker gs managed to fly circles around the liberty gunboat. But again, the "skill" factor comes in, which makes my argument not that viable.

But then again, I do find that a "gunship" should always lose to a "gunboat", no matter the pilot skill. This however doesnt happen always, for the very same reason listed above. IMO comparing "gunships" to "gunboats" isnt that good, its like comparing any other gunboat or gunship class ship in the game to the tridente, heh (or any cruiser to the ku dessie for that matter).

I believe a new model is planned for 4.86 for the LH gunboat. Can't check right now, at work, but I remember hitboxing a gunboat, per request, thought it was a LH (or HFL) one.

I think that was a model for the [HF], since I think they are getting their own shipline. I could be mistaken tho.

Well, lamehacker gs is something you'll not like to use. Yea, it got good agility, but with only 4 guns firing backwards and with very tin armor and relatively huge model it's pretty useless from my point of view. Better to use something else. Hackers are able to request Tridents or Rogue boats.

[color=#000000]Since I bought a hacker GS, I could say something here. I made a CAU4 2 pulse 3 razor and a missile turret one and well...I killed a cau6 liberty GB in it and fought well against 2 bombers 2 fighters. I died sure, but it could be possible to kill a bomber in it and evade a lot of snacs... and I have to say that I anything but not good in a gs/gb since I hate capships and never tried them before.

Smoke has the point. It is a fine ship, you could evade from GB-s about its agility but well...after the shield is down, you have to trick them with maneuvers because the hull is a joke if they hit it. So it depends on the "pilot" like anything on Disco.

It could be nice idea to "buff it", but I think its a fine ship now, so dont needed...

Good Thinking....
Don't use your own ship-line request from your allies because your own ship-line needs rebalancing in order to be worth of using it.....
Hackers shall use Kusari Expolders with Zoner Guns......:wacko:

Wraga how it is fine ship when it have 40k less armour and 100 Bots/Bats less then the rest of all comparable ship?
Smokey is not right. I have soled LABC in Hacker Gunship. It doesn't make the ship overpowered or me the best GB pilot in Sirius. The difference of the pilot skills should not be counted in when we speak for balance issues.


Lane Hacker GS / Bomber - Faith - 02-16-2011

From my point of view that gs have too limited usage, but evading on it is okay.

I dont understand you guys...why anybody need an overpowered ship what could destroy anything? You could do it in the hacker GS but you have to prove some skills or train in a lot... its more fun if you start from below and win a pvp, btw I find more fun in those situations when I have no chance and I win... its a game, so you could choose a monster to kill everybody sure, but where is the fun than?

Correct, it'd probably be this one: http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k13/gurjiv/HF_GB1.jpg

Well some people dont like to loose from others with equal skills due to the game mechanics.......
So what really happens is what Faith Zane said- take other GB or dont fly GB....:crazy:
