What do you think about CD's and Bombers and Gunboats.

[Ursus]

No, it's the only way to keep somebody in a fight. Just yesterday we had a RH gunboat in Texas interfering with Liberty commerce. We responded and one of us had to constantly CD to keep it from running, and it still got away anyway.

Might be better to have countermeasures use a turret slot. Then people could choose if they want to fight or run.

Cruise disruptors are an essential part of fleet combat. Good luck taking that battleship down if it just cruises away. Also, a bomber who can't stop a gunboat from engine-killing is a very dead bomber.

Same applies to gunboats which are attacking cruisers.

If you're looking to stop them pirating, you'll have to find some other method, I guess.

As for fighters used as CDers: they aren't any good in launching Reinforced CD (which is required to intercept most battleships).
You will see less bombers using CD in 4.86 because of Novas get fixed, i believe.

I think that CD should be removed from Cruisers, but GBs and lower should have it of cource


-Just because pirates kill you with one, doesn't mean they need to lose their ability to kill you with one.
This is a "Q_Q, I got killed" thread.

-and this coming from a Forum Moderator. just sad

This is a horrible Idea and without a Reason. You got killed by someone, Pirate or Lawful, doesn't matter.

and this coming from a Forum Moderator. just sad

He is obviously true. Doesn't matter if he is a Moderator or not, should be happy that he did not lock it.

I feel that Gunboats and bombers are meant for capital fleets, fighting other capital fleets.

Well what you "feel" is wrong, sorry bro.

lets leave the pirating out of it?

If it's not about piracy, then why do you want the change?
And why do you have "I l!k3s s@ying "2m!l_or_D!3 (pls delete my account)" as an option...?


You might as well edit the title to "Nurf Pirates" now and save yourself the time trying to claim it's not about pirates.

I completely agree that bombers should lose their CD and cannot think of a single reason why they have one.

TBH it's just admins and their friends insisting they keep them so they can just pirate without roleplay.

Pirates = Fighters. Bombers and gunboats = Fleets.

Pirates can't afford fleets because they have to buy gold for teeth and parrot food :rtfm:

I think piracy should be removed completely. It serves nothing but creates grief between players. We are here for fun and not anger after all.

[joojoo1975]

Ee gads peeps. I said it's not about pirates. but Your still tryin to drag it down.

Option 3 was for LOLZ. sorry i thought it would be funny. but if I had forethought. i would had did something else cause i can see where you all think this is a pirate thread. But i guess after 2 or 3 times saying it's Not. . .

I apologize.

I haven't seen many Cap fights. but from what i have seen(i could, again, be showing my noobness here) It seems like it's basically BB, Cruiser, GB, and bombers(heavy on BB and cruiser), with a smidgen of VHF's and below. If i'm wrong. . .

I apologize.

And i'm not advocating the change. . . Yet. I jsut wanted to get a feel for how the community sees them.

I also do NOT think piracy should be removed. but then again, that's for another Thread.



And seriously. I'm really gettin tiffed that you all think this is because I supposendly got killed by a pirate. If you can read my bloody mind(or your assuming because of my attempt of lulz with option 3). . .

I Will NOt appologize. Open you minds and Release the Hate :D



Nuff said.
