' Wrote:Randomly dropped mines is a novice's trick, and its a novice's trick to overcome it. Randomly running into mines...well, that doesn't say much about your opponent. Not being able to scratch them with guns, that doesn't say much about you. I'm getting closer and closer to the oppinion, through reading your posts in this thread, that you want to make things easier to kill because you cannot land a decent hit. That, in essence, you are very bad at PVP.
Moreover, your nukes and missiles would have done much much more damage if they had no armour, making the random useless deaths...more common, and easier to achieve. Logical fallacy?
Not to mention the lack of armor, as previously stated, would make PvP totally and utterly pointless. Having to wait four hours after a 30-second PvP fight, bull crap.
Look, Johnathan, we all suck at something in Freelancer. I happen to be terrible in Fighter vs. Fighter. But Bomber vs, Bomber and Bomber vs. Cap are easy things for me. Perhaps you'd be better suited to a cruiser, or battleship, seeing as dodging is pointless. Unselie's right, random mines are a novice trick and a last-ditch tactic. As for guns, you may want to invest in something like Cerberus or Solaris codenames. What you need is a lot of practice. It took me a while to get used to the different types of ships. But I have a grasp on different combat styles. You could too if you spent less time in this thread and more in Connecticut.

brings us by a commodius vicus of recirculation back to Howth Castle and Environs.
