Have you ever played Vanilla Freelancer online? That's how things were meant to work and that's how they should work. With a superstrong Disco bomber with 2.5x armor modifier, 100 nanobots and 100 shield batteries, you don't get any of that. In fact, all you'll get is boredom.
You're supposed to dodge the fire, not to take it. If you like watching health bars, maybe you should try LineAge 2 or any other stupid Korean mmorpg.
Even bombers can effectively dodge fire in Disco. It's terrible.
It's funny bringing minirazors and supernovas here, because in my opinion they shouldn't be used against fighters in the first place. This however does happen, I see it quite often. And it's mainly because bombers are too tough which makes the combat extreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeemly long and people get tired. When fighting the bomber, you have to be very concentrated all the time because you never know when the SN/NT may hit you and that's very tiring. You can't afford to do a single mistake, which is nearly impossible. Because of the combat length.
But what if you're using a light fighter? It doesn't have any of these uber 1337 weapons, in fact it usually has a poor equipment.
Several times, I've fought fully armored bombers with my Phantom LF(usually armed with Hornvipers) and it was......pointless. There's no other word. It was pointless.
I don't ever want to be in such a fight again in my life. Ever. I'll rather F1 out of the game and get banned or something.
This has to be the funniest thought in this thread. Now please, do me a favour. Go and post this in every thread in this section that has something to do with balancing.
vFREELANCER values FTW!!!
And DODGE(not Dodge, the carmaker. They suck)
I mean
DODGE > TAKE
/signed..somewhat..at least on the bombers getting too much of a bonus on the multiplier.
Although 19000 is maybe too little for a bomber armour, the 50000 you get when you put on an mk VIII is way too much. Period.
And don't get me started on how bombers are too good than they should be when fighting against fighters. They should be the uber weapon against caps, but should be an easy picking for any fighter(they are in fact originally bomber interceptors, designed specially to kill bombers.)
