All NPC enemey ships are easily killed, as after you get on their tail- they'll just cruise at full speed ahead- only turning slightly, as when they do this you just have to aim ahead and repeatedly shoot. I thinkthe devsshould Improve their AI, make them perform more twists, turns, tricks etc and perhaps reduce tier 4-5 sheilds a bit as they are kinda too powerful. It really does get boring shooting idiotic AI that are so easily killed- even at the higher levels...
Oh yea, reduce the amount of enemey NPC ships In missions- theres a ridiculous amount of them, I think there should be a LOT less ships, but more Intelligent and crafty.

I have yet to come accross a crafty ship. They can either out turn you and make straffing runs, or just flat give up and kind of try to turn. Granted I still get owned by groups of Tier5 ships only because once they shot at you they never miss. Now I have experience in the X-Wing vs TIE Fighter series including the originals so I know what I'm doing, its just annoying that they do not exibite any intelligence. They can either outmanuver you or they can't, end of story. Its only the groups of 3 where I'm takng one out and have the other 2 pounding on my rear shields/armor with obsurb accuracy that gets me.

I to play'd all the x vrs tie games, and it would be nice to see the "wonton weave' in the old ship ai. If I remember they had a nice little diagram with a xwing showing you what it was, hummmm wonder if those pictures are still around somewhere.

I still have my original copy of TIE Fighter Collectors Edition, but it wont work with WinXP 
Many people blame SOE for some problems, but I still feel Mrcosoft is the Evil Empire, Bill Gates is Darth Sidious, and whoever his lawyer is is definitly Vader, because I lost count how many lawsuits they have been in.
