we discussed this in Balance Chat. I explained why i put them to different slots. Bullhead is very similar to Thresher, it is actually one of the best battlecruiser atm. It can dodge better than others and it should have a weakness.
I'm someone who flew the Bullhead on a regular basis, and the idea that that slow turd could dodge anything when it was small was already ludicrous enough as it is. It's absolutely nothing like the Thresher, so I have no idea where you got that from. The Bullhead's weakness is and always has been its ridiculously slow turn radius and unusual 1 less thrust speed from a solid 120. It can't outrun other Battlecruisers over time, it can't turn to avoid them and never had the strafing speed, firepower or armor to hold their own against them.
The Bullhead was always extremely effective at killing Battleships because of its profile, but when you go and change the position of its main weaponry to a different location, you're actually taking away the ship's most viable method of flight. Having those prims on either side of an arguably slow ship (Yes, it's slow. Don't try to say otherwise. I have spent months flying this ship and know very well how it handles) allowed the pilot to make use of its thin profile to give it somewhat of a fighting chance. Now it not only lost what is and always was the Bullhead's traditional primary slot, aesthetically it looks stupid. Rebalancing this could be done just as easily by putting the slots back where they belong and modifying the other hardpoints to suit, so it's back to firing two guns up, down, front and back again at a proper axis.
Every change like this makes me want to stop playing the game. I've already been extremely demotivated and I am not going to spend another six weeks learning how to fly an SRP because you thought it was like the Thresher. The two ships come from the same line but perform way differently than the other. Put them back.
I do not want to have to sit and spend even more time on an already taxing game mechanic to get a slight advantage over other people. The idea of rewarding people for grinding out shield upgrades is already silly when shields are working just fine. There's already an armor upgrade system in place. The game doesn't need another system just like it for shields on top of it. That's just a waste of time.
I do not want to have to be forced to play this game more.
