- Jousting is BEYOND words.
- NPC ships turn 180 at FULL speed
I could go on and on, but thing I found most annoying, was my 4444 Privateer-Smuggler mission to kill the Imperial Ace...
While fightinga Tier4 Gunboat, at 600m I hit my boosters to get away at 1250 "speed"... I was chased down and blown up by the gunboat.
I'll get over it, and I will get Master. I just felt the need to express my animosity towards this new AI and those whom signed off on it.
kkthxbye!

I find that when fighting a particularily hard Jouster, useing energy pulse when they fly by isquite useful.

I dont know if this AI is the best, but im sure that Gunboats have extremelly manouverability IMHO.

Try maneuvering at first. The most important thing is not to forget your throttle - don't just run at full speed, your ship will be turning like a tank then.
The new AI is awesome. They hold the formations, if there are more of them, they divide into groups. One of them attacks while the other gets into postion. Simply amazing.

Now, that's the problem right there. When the AI itself gets good, it should have much less compensation in terms of superior ships, weapons, speeds, maneuverability, etc.

Yeah. If their AI is going to be on par with a decent human player and they will be flying in groups, they should have ships that are on par with a human players. None of this super-speed/maneuverability nonsense.

But ... a Gunboat out running me at full thrust?
I was actually about 1km awaywith 5 seconds thrust remaining with full rear shields and it caught up to me. There's a difference between using tactics, and not being able to do a thing to survive. It's not like I was going against a star destroyer ...

I strongly disagree. There is currently no serious PvP and no serious PvE on the ground. This is only REAL challenge SWG has to offer.
Either accept it, or get some help.
