Sorry to yell, but this is pissing me off. Fighters have high turbo drain and low mass, that's okay. But some fighters, like the Mauds and the Cent Mk3 have no turbo drain! This is extremely unfair and worse than if you hadn't changed anything at all. Devs, can you please either take out ALL balance fixes put in in the last patch or finish the rest? It's damned impossible to fight something like the Tunguska Maud or the Corvus Maud.

the corvus maud has plenty of drain. More so than the vult mk III, (which it has the same mass as), 60 drain I believe.

Or what if we let the devs stick to their posted plans, rather than expecting them to be a feather in the wind for each of our private agendas? They've said they'll be tweaking the heavy ships. They certainly will not be undoing the changes they've made.

The problem is that right now, it's not very much fun to play. If they're not going to be able to fit the heavy rebalance into the next patch, I seriously think that they should pull out what they've done, finish the heavy balance, and put it all in at once.

Eh, we can live with it for a while rogue. Sure it makes ctc a hit and run sport but that only works early in the week.

Yea we can live with the rebalancing in progress right now. what i cant live with is the lack of things to balance that are worth playing.....

FM.. I don't mind people complaining, as long as they do so constructively and make me aware of what's going on. I do intend to implement a bunch of balance changes this week. We're always trying to juggle priorities here, so some of them slip more than we mean them to. Too many hats, not enough people.

Anyway, I know about the maud issues at the very least. I need to play with making the heavies more massive and then drop that in once it's tune reasonably well. I can roll a possible swarm fix into the same update.

Multitasking is bad for your health you know.

there is no need for caps.

i personally like the rebalance a lot, and many others do too.

I think this is entirely the wrong way to go,You should balance combat in ship and weapon design not with battery drain. Does an F16 Falcon or an F14 Tomcat run out of energy before it can unlease its full firepower potential? A nuclear submarine never has a battery drain.If I have a fast ship with 3 weapons ports I want to be able to use that,not have my ship come to almost a dead stop after a short turbo boost just so a bunch of pirates can have their way in the game,or my weapons stop firing after a 4 shot burst.We should have the ability to customize our ships,thats what was unique about Earth and Beyond.Ships should have engine slots, weapons slots/ports,device slots that do special things like increase radar range or anything,At least these three different slots if not others like maybe shield slots ,even maybe a reactor slot with not such a drastic drain as you have now,and then players should be able to build there own engines excetera that are offered in the game,or even unique items only salvaged by killing certain bots and having the ability to analyze them through some kind of analyzing terminal,then build them useing certain materials and ore and the ability to increase our skills to build individuel items to give them better and better quality which in turn gives items better and better effects.And the best part to be able to put our name on what we build."Manufactured by Intimidator".Also the ability to sell or give what we build to other players.The ability to build our own ammo for rail guns or missiles for our missile launchers to make them better quality for better effect.I wish the Devs had played Earth and Beyond,that game had so many pioneering gaming ideas I could go on and on.

Don't copy+paste posts into multiple topics. It's a bad practice. [flamethrower deleted- CT ] This is a Suggestion to either finish the rebalance the way they've been doing it pronto or pull out their changes. Yours is a suggestion to undermine the whole game and turn it into Earth and Beyond.
