Suggestion to Dev's

Apr 23, 2003 Nihm link


Please make rockets better. I mean I want rockets on my Valk, or any other ship with only (S) ports. The Sunflares do nothing for damage, they have low detonation radius, they have low speed, and you only get 8. Doesn't that seem like FEW to many disadvantages?

I plead, please allow me to use rockets like in the old Vendetta and make Sunflares better :), or just make Jackhammers fittable to small ports... I'm sick of energy and rail gun fights, I want some classic Ion and Rocket Vendetta combat :)

Yeah, sunflares need to have more BOOM and less FISSSSSS.

At the very least Sunflares need to come a dozen to a pack.

But they are hardly worthless. I've been using them to good effect. I'd wait on modifying them, and then maybe if it seemed good bump speed +5 and damage +200 or so. Or maybe it is just that I miss the old rockets.

And I agree. The energy requirements of the various blasters could be lowered a tad.

I think they should keep the sunflare rockets damage the same, but make 18 in a pack, and make them go at least 60 m/s.

Or keep eight in a pack, up the damage, and make the speed like 80 m/s

Yeah, I've found that a ship with dual (or triple, or quadruple) sunflares is one mean mamma, and not something to mess around with. I agree that you should be able to carry more warheads, perhaps 10-12.
