' Wrote:For the datastorm numbers, it's not that "bigger is worse", it's a ratio of the steering numbers to each other and to the mass. I'm not sure what the formula is, but I have seen it around.
And as I understood it, VHFs were supposed to be superiority fighters. IE, meant to take out LFs, HFs, and other VHFs. Paladin was not designed as a "response" to the superior Chimera. Read the infocard, they were old fighters pulled out of storage because of losses during the war.
And by playtesting, I meant the sort of playtesting the balance team does. Do 5 1v1 matches, then switch fighters with the other guy and do 5 again. Then do some 2v2 matches. Look at the results then. It's still not a statistically significant sample size, but it's a lot better than single battles.
If it depends on the mass, hell then look at it closer, Chimaera has 150 mass, like all HFs listed there. If you would have found the formula, post it here please, it would help. I dont have time to find it myself right now, as I need to go soon.
If VHFs are superior to everything lower, what are HFs supposed to do then? Cannon fodders? I always seen HFs as a counter to VHFs, sacrificing damage to outmanuever VHFs and bombers, while VHFs kill bombers and swarm light gunboats/ships.
Ive had enough group testing in random fights and events, dont worry. From each side of the barricade, both in it and against it. A bit less duels though, mainly because dueling in that huge thing is quite contraproductive.
Once again I repeat, Im not the only one thinking something is wrong, there was a lot of people testing it while .85 came out, most of them gave up on flying it further though. :unsure:
