Giant sucking grinder joke aside, We do need true cannons. Im sure im not the only one who has somthing wrong with shooting a fighter with the same thing we use to blast through warships with meter-thick armor.
Caps need to have a role again, they have to do SOMTHING well. Currently GB's are snac magnets, 3 bombers, the thing they are supposed to be AGAINST, can insta kill most even with a cap 6 equipped. Cruisers, seem to be decent, but their defences seem to be a joke, and their missles meant to snipe battleships, most of the time dont even scratch the battleships paint. That being said, Give caps TRUE anti cap turrets. Keep the ones we have now, and add another type, or upgrade the current, either way. Give us Proper cap roleplayers a actual purpose again. Running up and slamming at eachother at 200m and armor being the judge, i thought was supposed to disapear in .85 yet here we are once again. An all gun or all gun + HM/m loadout is still the best for cap smashing, and STILL mostly depends on armor and guns firing. lets give caps the guns they were meant to have, eh? Even if we dont get decent point defence,fine. at least let us wreck eachother with somthing more than a angry tennisball launcher and a marshmellow cannon.
