so it will go from a special to a glorified atlas?

It's literally BREAKING their MIND to have a Prom that puts up a decent fight.

Solra is serco ctishman. Will you please stop playing this tired "OMG ITANI WANT UNFAIR ADVANTAGE!111" card?

The prom is almost perfect where it is now. It just has a bit too much health for it's agility and weaponry - I agree that it shouldn't be returned to it's old state of brickitude. Just that it needs some minor tweaks to bring it more in line with everything else.

The proms have taken my by surpise, they like work in combat now. 8-0
I've lost (and will most likly lose some more) a few (alot) times just getting use to what they can do now. How ever I think they do not need nerfing, I woud tone the armor down a bit, but other then that it's fine. I really need to get in my serco alt and fly one soome time....

Edit: Oh and I love the new IGB :D

it is my understanding that there is more balancing on they way. and a lot of you are posting as if this is the end all be all of balancing. for now let's leave the prom alone and see what makeovers the other ships will have.

besides my itani friends. this is the first time since i started playing vendetta that serco's beloved special ship is actually special..... let us enjoy it while we can :)

once again, thannk you devs for a fun game :)

HA, wait till the proms start getting trashed by a flare/jack/AGT centaur. Poor ickle serco.. you go boom now :D

You know I was all pissed off about losin my stuntfighter, till I realized... the Centaur FLIES like a stuntfighter... with several hundred times the firepower. :) No complaints. But to save space you might want to just delete the light fighters :) no one is gonna take the time or the money that we just spent tryin to get one to beat a centaur. Divebombers are your best bet though(Orions with flares)

uhm. yes. the cents should be lowered in thrust
Jan 24, 2005 Shapenaji link
and then, what heavy ships are itani supposed to use?

Edit: UncleDave: HAHA

interesting enough that many people complained about the tunguska maud, but find this new fighting centaur ok.

Is that because the tung maud was only buyable to those who worked for it, but the centaur is available to nearly everyone?

The mauds fightings abilitys were lowerded to nearly zero.
"Because it is a mining ship"

Now what is a cent? a trading ship.

shape:

ragnaroks :D

And hopefully a couple of other promlike ships offered by other factions

The day yodaofborg lost to a Centaur.

OMG... hehehe, I see this as a sign at least... a sign of interesting things to come at least, i know, im just an impatient soso, well some people have been waiting for this for 2 years or more ya know! I cant wait till the ship balancing is complete, so I can choose a ship i know is not going to get changed in two weeks... =D

Im not commenting on anything except to say, giive the prom 100+ L ports, and i wll be happy =D (its not as uber as some made it out to be, but a great improvent over the flying brick we had =)

That's why I like you Yoda :D.

Btw, give the IBGs 400 S ports too.
Jan 24, 2005 KixKizzle link
Like I said before. It's not about the prom. Everyone's just upset that they have to get serco standing now :)

j/k

heh, I don't think serco will look highly of me ever. with -990 I'd have to free up a few hundred hours of boring botting.

forget that. if people feel they have to switch sides to win in combat, they're either confused, or the ship is broken.
Jan 24, 2005 Renegade ++RIP++ link
softy, I sure don't want to be flying that ship, imagine how bad it will dodge...

although 400 sunflares does it even need to move :D, will burn a big hole in your pocket though :D

and yes this was a jokery post...
Jan 24, 2005 Fnugget link
I would lower the centaur engine or increase it's weight, and make an Itani variant of the centaur with the current stats, with maybe less cargo.
That or a light rag version for itani. Just because Itani like light ships.
Jan 24, 2005 Nya13 link
yea and add a variant of valkyrie + IBG for serco.

i have a better idea :
all nations have same ships.
Jan 24, 2005 yodaofborg link
Ooooh, Ooooh, why dont we all fly round in different coloured busses!
