PETITION: Snub Weapon arcs to return pre-5.0

[L1ght]

If you're not seeing your opponent while you're flying straight, means the opponent has out manouvered you and that is a skill issue. Many people do not know, sadly this change makes your guns "not shoot" when you properly want them to. I've personally been against this since it was introduced on the test version as it randomly killed certain ships flying a certain way, I understand why this was implemented as I tested it out through and through however the negatives from it don't even come close to the benefits. From the random chainfiring(shotguns going on cooldown is bad), random gun arcs, some not even shooting, to people with ultra wide monitors probably not being able to shoot on most angles ( I don't have a ultra wide monitor this is just a guess based on how muzzle cone works). Reverting it does no harm, the ultrawide monitor people usually suffer from the "no movement" syndrome because they have to yoink their mouse 2x more than the regular user, therefore they are just certified turrets who die to everything. All in all I strongly feel this needs to be reverted back.

Do a hardware survey to conclude if this is needed or not.

It's annoying not being able to see your opponent as he shoots sideways, jousting is more "fun" for a newb like me, it makes missiles work better too

Bruh, you're been around for 3 years.... There's zero excuse for not having moved beyond jousting by now.

Can we revert snubs back to how they were in 4,84? Guns, arcs, the lot.

It wasn't broke, why "fix" it?

It's sure as hell broken now.

Try flying a rheinland 5k and shooting 1 npc. Make transports (and snubs) great again. About to make a real life 360 turret to prove its ridiculous that guns have arcs in the first place. What is this 2023?

That "who can turn wider" game is extremely boring gameplay

Im actually tired of those newbies needing more help, even for the fact that they will never notice the gun arc stuff since they're loosing anyway.

God bless you.

+1 and +1 to L1ght's nice explanation.

I'm truly amazed that people still keep repeating the same awful takes thread in thread out whenever any sort of balance-related topic is brought up.

You think you want insta kills back, but, you really don't.

Its never been about who can turn wider, just who can properly manuver. Turning wider makes you vaulnerable to people who box and joust.

If you prefer to joust, that is fine. But that shouldnt be the only means of flying - which the point of me making this thread. Like I said earlier, pvp in snubs should not be 1 dimensional. If you choose to joust, thats your choice. But if you choose to rely on manuverability, that should be a viable option too.



Ps: can a moderator please delete all these posts bitching about SNACS please?
