Why is that, that the caps can go around hoarding weapons from all factions cause they have no alternatives, but when it comes to fighters, we do not have access to an equivalent gun to inferno?

Any genius who recommends mini razor as an equal, please try to shoot a fighter with that thing.
The speed difference is too much.
Yeah if the mini razor is so good, please make it OC exclusive and we will live with our "second grade" Inferno

PEACE.


the Inferno is an Outcast exclusive weapon, and it should stay that way. if we have a weapon that every faction can use, you might as well tell 'Uniqueness' to GTFO, cuz thats what will end up happening. Stripping a fighter's shield with a razor is pretty easy, and if you cannot do it easily, i can only think that you arent aiming right, or are not using it effectively.

The minirazor should not be outcast exclusive, its fine where it is currently in terms of selling locations (though, im not sure why its sold on casablanca :S ). the speed of the outcast inferno and the minirazor may be different, but thats no excuse to get an inferno thats free-for-all made.

' Wrote:Caps don't have alternatives, fighters do. You have debilitators/del cids, depending on your alignment.
They might be a bit worse for fighting against caps, but they are much better for fighting against fighters.
Mini can hit the shield, if you know how. Of course, not nearly as easy as with inferno, but it can be done.
Also, it is much easier to 1-2 with mini+SN then with inferno+SN. So it has it's advantages.

And I would much rather see mini as universal then inferno. And I don't want to see mini as Outcast exclusive.
And I bet there are more people happy about having mini as universal.

In short, I'm happy with things as they are now.


if your thinking of taking out a cap ship on your own in a bomber, id suggest to think twice. agreed, you dont have an inferno, but what the hell is a supernova for? its not just a hullbuster ya know.. and if you and another person attack a bs (taking into consideration your using razor/sn combo), you can win with so much ease, its not even funny :/

maybe skoko's suggestion of a code based shield buster may be in order, but i dunno how that helps you, since it practically will be yet another gun.


as chopper said, im happy with things are as they are now.

Leave ma Inferno alone >.>

But yes, I think...

1. Outcasts shouldn't use Debs (I don't)
2. Every House military/police needs it's own Deb-equivalent
3. The Inferno should stay for Outcasts as their own unique thing

The quad-Colada is almost as good as the Inferno on bombers, and better against fighters than the Inferno (for most people), so really the Inferno isn't the "be all and end all".

As for people using Battleship Infernos - I say no, they should be for Outcasts only. That's just me. Pretty obviously...

bah, you want an inferno, do what my Xenos character did and find a weapon dealer that has one and BUY IT! Again, silly and lazy people. Gosh, do I have to all your thinking?

Looking into returning, maybe.

lets put it that way - if people adhered to the RP of the guns ( considering that razors are universal )

- outcasts have a torp slot shieldbreaker that replaces 6 shield breaker guns - and they can use awesome hull breakers
- corsairs have shieldbreaker guns that make any torp slot shieldbreaker obsolete. - they can use the minirazor for hullbreaking, which gives them an equal setup against smaller capital ships ( not as efficient, but good enough i guess )
- lawfuls can use debs - which are not as good as tizonas but easier to use - they use the razor, too.

sounds balanced.

what is not balanced has been said... that is

outcasts with debs, blood dragon fighters with infernos, mercs with everything - etc. but thats mostly up to self control - i don t think it should be impossible - but not the common rule to have such a setup.

The only problem is, when the Zoners are identified as the Gallian agents, and honestly, they supply all the very best weaponry to virtually any and all takers with the credits to purchase them, and thus equalize the opponents on the Sirius battlefield, maximizing casualties, these weapons will be severely restricted to all but a handful of factions.

It's about time the Zoners got what's due them. The almost universally accepted, will soon become the almost universally hunted.:cool:

Tranquillity how can it be universal when it is sold only on Outcast basses?... in other words, No it isn't ... I hope you will get universal shieldbuster gun, but seriously, use Mini...

EDIT: Zapp, I agree, Outcasts shouldn't use debs ... I am not using it also... there are other methods which will help you to elinminate enemy's shield.. *looks at Paralyzer missile launcher*

there is absolutely no reason except lack of RP imagination involved in peoples ability to get ANY weapon they want. They simply have to be more involved in the RP to actually be able to do so. As I said, my XENOS has an Inferno...HOW? Simple...I searched and searched till I found a weapon dealer willing to deal with a Xenos and then asked him to get me an Inferno...took a couple weeks, but it worked out...that too freakin hard? Well then mate I recommend trying to fly for the OC...DUH!

Looking into returning, maybe.

@skoko:

just like the supernova - the only "universal" base its sold at is gammu, which is hardly zoners - but its rather ooRP for everyone to dock there - the other bases are isis and fes. - yet, its universal.

edit: ok, arrenmoore, too - but thats sort of .... strange.... i think we can agree on that.
