P.S. Space PVP is fun!
I suppose that my being happy to keep you on Bria is not going to make me many friends around here, huh?
All that popcorn and soda must be adding some padding too by now

Wow you guys jump on anyone with an opinion........so I might as well add more fuel to the flame. I never said i died alot and i never said i didn't PVP and that i wasn't good at it sweeties. I have no problem with PVP I just feel that it sucks compared to some of the other Xwing titles that have come out. In no way is the space system balanced or even fun to play. I have been an avid xwing fan since the title was release and have played all the different variations of said game. All i am saying is that the PVP in space needs to be a little more like PVE. Maybe you guys like killing people in four shots but personally i would like a little more of a challenge. This game right now is not based on piloting skill it is based on who see who first. I can't speak for the rest of you but i am undeafeated in PVP space battles when i see the enemy first. I mean seriously how do you miss when you only need four shots. All i am asking for is that the ships react more like the other games that came before it. I spent months pvping Xwing alliance and that game ROCKED for pvp. It was based on your skill and how you flew your ship along with knowing the weaknesses and strengths of your enemy. There is no need for that here. I don't care if it is a heavy fighter or a light fighter all attack methods are the same and to me this is boring and not fun. Just because i bash the PVP system does not mean i can't fly it just means i have played better and expect better. To all you who will bash this, and i know there are plenty of you out there, please come up with something better than /getpilotskills cause really that is getting old. Tell me that PVP is balanced when all you need to fly is either the Grevious or the JSF which can do as much damage as any other ship but can completely outfly anything else. I know i have a Grevious and that thing is SWEET but still there should be drawbacks to flying that ship. Each class of ship should have their strengths and weaknesses and in the PVE game these do but in the PVP side of things there is no ship class distinction. In my opinion i would at least like to see battles last a couple minutes vs seconds. Ok i am done, man i can 't wait for the replies this is going to be good

Your setup is what id use for PvE. I have a MKIV and L8 blaster in my bank, just for the quick change out.
Reason i went with an L8 shields is because if i didnt, id be missle bait in PvP. I could probably be ok with a MKIV, but knowing some of the ppl on my server, i opted for the extra padding

with no risk of getting hit by blasters, i would consider running adjust rear extreme, since missiles tend to come up the tailpipe. who knows, you might just get me.also i think you dont want to switch anymore cause i told you how bad the starsider pilots would bend you overMessage Edited by S-1-l2-H-C on 07-14-2005 06:43 PM

Ha! I coudlnt kill you even with 3 IR2's out of an oppressor unless i got really, Really, REALLY lucky.
Personnaly i think a RGT is quite killable, *IF* you can get inside his turn circle. Would have a straight shot at the top of the ball, and thats were it counts. Although i really doubt theres many who can get inside my turn circle. You probably can,, but id wager 90% of bria pilots can't.
EDIT.
Acutally good pilots on starsider has nothing to do with it. The truth is , IM BORED. The only reason i dont CANCEL altogether is i figure maybe joining a guild will help salvage some of the games fun for me. If it doesnt work out, im probably outta here.

Space PVP is WEAK. There is no damage modifier so one shot from a player ship will reduce your shields to nothing and second shot will destory any armor you had and probaly blow you up. You can go to deep space to pvp or you can delcare at any reb/imp station in space, but it doesn't matter cause there is no one to fight cause there is nothing to do in space once you are a master pilot. Right now the PVP system is so jacked that me in my bell 22 can take out any multiplayer ship that is out there. It just depends on who sees the other person first. No skill, no parts and no programs will help you PVP in space
Translation: I die a lot and have no motivation to get off my lazy ass and work at getting better.
ROFLMAO!
