Giving discovery members a place to communicate outside the RP environment and sacrificing the fourth wall and the anonymity of RP characters as buffer between the player, is a mistake not only Disco has made, but a mistake all the same. Discovery due to its long standing existence and hardcore playerbase suffers from OORP interaction in general.
Your Disco experience will improve a decent amount the moment you remove the forums, discord and skype from the formula. Try it. I can personally attest that it is working very well.
And yet majority of players hated LH~ for incognito. Disco is full of bitterness even when it's impossible to lose in this game. Resources are infinite, you respawn with your ship and tech. You can only lose time. And some people decide to spend their Disco time spreading negativity. That's a lose-lose situation for whole community.
Listen to sindroms and go play this nostalgic game that is kept together by remaining players. Spread positivity, spread care, spread friendliness. Enjoy the roleplay, enjoy the gameplay, enjoy the experience. It will not last forever but it can provide great memories forever. And that is worth striving for.

I will derail the ongoing conversation and confess that adding a separate market subforum addition is a great idea and was long overdue. Cheers for that.

Thank you.
In the attempt to improve snubfight experience for the lower spectrum of pvp skill, the proportions have been fucked which will make those that need support, suffer even more.
Someone who knows how to dodge / shieldrun will be affected way less than someone who's rather new to scenarios where they'll be forced to dodge / shieldrun.
What happens with less response of the ship is basically that the already poorly moving snub is getting eaten alive.
TTK is lower for good pvpers, and way way lower for worse pvpers. What I mean with that is that the proportions are terrible.
Powercore feels awesome, good regen rate and the energy use on guns are also cool. I'd consider fast refires a better option than before.
Shield changes, awesome aswell. No more invincibility, but rather an enhanced shield. Good change.
Movement wise I'd consider not playing snubs because of the shit feeling. It just feels shit, I hate not feeling responsive in a, what's supposed to be, fast snubcraft vessel.
How about we keep the movement as on recent patch, 15k strafe force, 150 mass, and concentrate on what's 100% needed to be fixed? (powercore, shield, mines)
Funny, as someone who is clearly not an ace, but a very long time bad snub flyer, the latest changes made things easier for me. It's almost like it was the intention to nerf aces a little bit.. Can't complain too much about that.

More mass = You hit 2 more shots
Also more mass = Good pvpers hit 15 more shots
You'll realize after playing more than 20 minutes on a setup groupfight on the testserver
This patch comes in favour for the already good pvpers.. if they wanted to be more successful they'd want to keep the now changed stats.
However.. the movement doesn't feel good or comfortable. There's snub players leaving ALREADY.

as I've been doing the last few weeks...
That's factually incorrect.. you've been on the playtest for one session that lasted between 2-3 hours.

I will agree with @L1ght. The mass being added made all fighters similar to the Titan before patch. And surprise, the titan is slower compared to what it was before patch.
Consider to revert those changes before patch please. It is garbage and feels so wrong. A fighter should be fast and not having the feeling of piloting something big.
