ME_Jeldren Posted October 16, 2000 Share Posted October 16, 2000 Originally posted by Cmdr_DFMD: I fed up with all these groups that only ever use Interceptors (As, Xs, TI etc) Whats wrong with the B-Wing or Skipray ? This is why I want to set up Nova Squadron, because I want a group that once trained won't be afraid to use Gunboats, B-Wings, Y-Wings even ! GOD DAMNIT - whys the best stuff in life gotta be so difficult ! Well there is a problem with B/Y/Gun. B/Y/Gun one ship type melees are boring. Ion ships are often outlawed in mixed ship melees because laser/ion ships are deadly in laggy games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K_Kinnison Posted October 16, 2000 Author Share Posted October 16, 2000 also Ion ship games are actually pretty boring, kinda like 2 WW2 tanks going head to head. Also Ions give a significant advatage over non-ion craft, for exaple a Gunboat can get a 2 to 1 Kill death ratio to an X-wing, even tho the Gunboat is slower, and less mauverable.

But Guns are pretty manuverable(slightly more than X-Wings). Arming them with torps will turn a boring into an intresting fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, the AI will not fire Torpedoes at Fighters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We use missiles in squad internal fights and I never encounterd lag that made the game unplayable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K_Kinnison Posted October 19, 2000 Author Share Posted October 19, 2000 What kinda of conenction are you using? and what type of medem do you have? (and please dont use the C3PO button EVERY SINGLE TIME, you starting to sound liek a parrot, and it gets annoying) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ME_Jeldren Posted October 20, 2000 Share Posted October 20, 2000 I mostly used a 56k modem for XWA/XvT. Missiles should be only a problem when someone has a slow computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Photon Posted October 20, 2000 Share Posted October 20, 2000 You clearly haven't spent much time playing the game online [zone], its almost impossible to use warheads if both people aren't on a ISDN or better [This message has been edited by Photon (edited October 20, 2000).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K_Kinnison Posted October 21, 2000 Author Share Posted October 21, 2000 You can use them, but you drop major packets, and no one who is serious about the game will allow that muich packet loss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
