For those masters so far for Rebel... Do you find the B-wing mysteriously strange flying it? It seems to float to the left even after pushing off to the right...then all of the sudden it will decide to move right. This is taking awhile to get used to but none of the other ships had this as strongly as the B-wing does.Is it a bug or is this the intention on how it's supposed to drift and be extremely slow to shift back in the other direction. What do you guys think?

Sounds like its just a realy sluggish ship, which i believe it's suposed to be. The Rhixzrk is the same way, it feels very floaty after coming from a light or medium fighter.

I'm only 3433, so I haven't tried the b-wing yet, but it sounds like you're describing "sliding", which is something the devs tinkered with in beta. For a time, ALL ships had that, then they turned it down. Doesn't surprise me that the B-wing (a very heavy ship), still has noticible sliding.

It's maneuverabilty is absolutely terrible. It's not much more than a solid support fighter that you would want to fly when you are grouped with at least 5 friends. The armaments layout is impressive with 4 weapons and 2 ordinance, but it still is borderline impossible to survive a turning war in it.
