Make seeker missiles useful or remove them

May 17, 2010 FistOfRage link
They are a rare enough drop to be made useful. Let players use them in a suicide capacity in the same manner as the seekers.

Otherwise, remove this worthless drop from the game. k. thx :p

I use them some what frequently, it would be nice if at least I could reload them.

What are you using them for?
May 17, 2010 ShankTank link
Probably for their ridiculously wide prox range. So basically, every port using them is a sure 1800 damage.

It's probably a good weapon for freaking out an opponent or finishing them off, wouldn't mind if they could be reloaded.

Edit: also, you can use them like Aerna seekers. Ram yourself on a roid until you have 100 hull points left, run up to a player, set em off lol. I've actually seen Aernas miss them on a couple occasions.

Mainly I use them as a distraction or against really light ships

Reloading would be cool. But maybe only with corvus and associated companies.. ie, why would the Itani government give you ammunition used in autonomous jump-capable warheads?
May 17, 2010 ryan reign link
For the same reasons that the Serco and Itani governments would give traders their top rated military combat ships. Apparently in the future, all governments are insane.

Reloading would go a long way to making them usefull

Honestly I like the fact that they are non-reloadable. I have about 600 of them in various stations, most of which are out of ammo. I like selling them to noobs.

lol ladron

i think they're fine the way they are.. they drop all the time.. and they're hilarious.

reloading would be fine, i suppose.

I think seekers should be reloadable and should have only 2 grid. Widowmaker/Seeker launcher would be fun but not too much to deal with.

So that would be a means of fixing the Widowmaker and the Seeker missile in one swoop.

+1 reload.

please make them reloadable... seems pretty pointless that they aren't

+1 to Reloadable, but only in GRAY space. I'd prefer Ineubis and Corvus. Offer meets demand.

There aren't enough rare tradeable items in game, and Seekers could be if they were reloadable. I think they should cause more damage also. Considering that all factions have Seekers just waiting to chase after pup, they should be reloadable by all factions. If reloading is restricted it should be reasonable, like only at Barracks Stations.

+1 to reloadable, and please don't make it an obscene 1,000,000c reload either.
