The millenium falcon didnt have a forward laser, just its turrets and concussion missles....so I dont want to see one on a YT.

I don't have any problems finding folks eager to take the guns on my Nova and in the unlikely event I can't find them I just take out my X-Wing. I can think of alot of things to improve the MPS experience and NPC gunners forward firing gun isn't on the list.
- Fix the Plasma Fire / Alarm bug
- Mark VI Shield and Armor to compensate for the Multiplayer requirement
- Maneuver compensation for turrets so PLAYERS have better accuracy
- Give more at position abilities for the Operations person and/or give the Pilot the existing abilities
If you have trouble finding a crew for the MPS then you should just go out on a Solo ship. These ships are unique in their role and rather than dilluting their purpose their role should be enhanced.

Hrmm...I've got THREE forward firing projectiles on my Decimator...and they KICK ARSE. A little pricey to fire them but what the heck, it's only play money anyway.
And any MP pilot worth a hoot doesn't go chasing bogies around. Fly in, park, let the gunners do their job, rinse, repeat.
AND
But still, having 2 forward firing laser cannons that the pilot can use is not a bad idea.
Missiles run out, after that the pilot of a multiplayer ship can get quite boring.
BORING? Whenever I'm sitting back in my chair with my naughty looking EVO CYBORG joystick in my lap at full attention my girlfriend starts getting all excited and giggly, What could beBORING about that.
