Dear Devs: Disable Turret Zoom for all Capital Ships

[GrnRaptor]

Dear Developers,

It seems that for some unknown reason the Turret Zoom functionality for the entirety of the Liberty Capital line, Gunboat and up, has not been available for the past several updates. Incredibly, it works for every other Capital class line up out there. As there seems to be no fix in the forseeable future, I hereby request that all Turret Zoom functionality for Capital class vessels, as defined under "Ships & Systems Classifications", be disabled across the board until such time as the Liberty line is functionally capable of it again. Please note that this is not a request to disable Turret Steer in general or to remove Turret Zoom from freighter and transport class vessels.

Because PvP balance is important.

Thank you,

GrnRaptor

LNS must suffer. Keep it as it is.

That's a joke, by the way.

So to sum it up...


"Q_Q My toy got taken away, take away everyone else's toy too since I don't have mine anymore!"


Please, either make a better and less biased argument for this, or be quiet.

So stating facts is biased now? Uhhhh what?

It's a fact: Liberty Caps are completely incapable of TZ at this point in time, while literally ALL of our enemies who are capable of using caps, can still use TZ/TS, and they do, and it gives them an advantage over us more times than not.

How is -that- balanced? And how is Kevin biased for speaking out about it?

No, not QQ. This isn't a "OMG SABRE NERF TURN RATE" thread. It's a PvP "Balance" matter; an issue of core functionality. Turret Zoom is a function of the capital lineup and any ship with a certain mass. To have vessels whose combat generally requires said functionality no longer possess it is to break the balance of PvP. If you truely want balance in PvP then I suggest you lobby for this as well.

I get the vibe that he's only suggesting this because he's primarily a Liberty Cap player, and he doesn't like having to aim in his cap/his enemies being able to blow him up easier (though I don't see much problem with the latter reason).

In theory, if he found out the Rheinland BS didn't have TS/TZ, and Liberty caps DID, he would probably have no problem with that and wouldn't make this thread, in my opinion.


Hopefully I'm wrong, but that's the feeling I get out of this thread. Maybe I'm conditioned to believe this from the past threads like this, with those motives, over the time I've been here.

He probably flies transports more than anything else, actually...

He's a member of [LN] HC, and quite honestly we're all a little fed up with the state of things currently, and the lack of any fixes or other changes being made to balance things out until a fix can be found.

If someone brought up that any ship line was no longer capable of their core functionality I'd put my vote in to do the same. Because "balance" and all should be had by all.

Did anyone figure out WHY exactly did all liberty caps suddenly end up without TZ?
