Good, go ahead, nerf up the missiles and make them even more useless. If someone says that missiles make duels way easier, I call it bullcrap. Missiles are ALREADY nerfed, because fighters has option to have AU8, what makes fighters to be shot down rather hard (tested sidewinders against one guy, it took like 5 to halve the armor). Do I need to mention that fighters are usually close to each other, jinking around thus giving problems to the proper missile aim?
And FFS, Am I the only one who actually CAN evade missiles easily?
never had an issue avoiding missles and mines either. but id rather missles get a 10 time price increase along with a 10 time power gain and damn the tracking. Missiles in todays world are expensive in order to guarantee a kill the sophistication and killing impact is measured to be optimal.., the missiles in disco would not exist cause noone would buy the defective things.

No your not the only one, this is yet another of many threads where someone lost a fight and think so highly of themselves that they should not get defeated in a fight so they get on here and cry NERF NERF NERF!!!!

Please, record yourselves dodging four or five players' worth of missile launches in a group fight sometimes. I'd love to learn exactly how it is you do it.

Who the heck thinks they can win a fight against 4-5 ships, are you crazy?

At no point did I imply that there are no allies on your team. However, still, certainly you can dodge those missiles, right? It's only five guns worth of slots after all. As much as all the guns on a single Wraith. They won't do more damage than a single Wraith's weaponry, right?
All this garbage about dodging missiles is honestly getting old. You cannot, at all, dodge missile launched by multiple players reliably. You just can't. CMs often fail for unknown reasons. Mere maneuvering has never stopped a Sidewinder from tracking.
Not to mention the infamous 'no missile warnings' bug which leads to you dying in approximately one minute.

Not going to sit here and debate a bunch of fighting scenarios, never flown a Wraith so have no idea about the weaponry. I just know it seems like some people lose a fight or two and post on here wanting things nerfed because they lost a fight, has been so many leave this game because of the nerfs in the past and more nerfs are going to make more people decide to quit. If you lose no matter what the fight was 1 vs 1 5 vsv 5 or whatever. Or because a transport got away from them. Take a break, eat a sandwich and come back and practice, if your so sore over losing a fight well uninstall the game and stop trying to get more nerfs to fit your style of fighting, we had enough nerfs this year and it is getting beyond the balance, balance in pvp is ridiculous not everyone is going to be the same and fly the same. Just figure out a way to get better or change your fighting.
Notice how all good pvpers that posted in this thread agree that missiles are too strong? Yeah, that's not a coincidence. That's because they know what they're talking about, unlike most of you people here.
Telling Haste to "go practice", oh that's golden. You're a scrub that doesn't know about pvp, and that's why you think missiles are fine, just like everyone that argues the same point here.
Go ahead, nerf everything, because of few whiny players. Oh, better, nerf whole factions! Because they are already screwed (Hogosha anyone?) Or make IDs more and more absurd. It makes me sick, like the players who use up-down strafing and call people noobs (that's the lightest, I have been even put into group with c***s and idiots), because they don't use it during the dogfight.
Really? REALLY?
No wonder players are leaving and server player count is so low.

No i know who he is and i know you too, nothing to do with me or my pvp. Just seems like you all think your pvp gods that should not lose a fight so if someone does defeat you or get away then you think something is wrong with the balance, Nuff said i am done here.
Ahh heck, lets just delete all the systems and put everyone in /conn and only have starfleas with 2 guns on them, will that be balanced enough for ya?
