I think its time for everyone to start discussing nerfing the super ship warbird....or make the other ships not nerfed. warbird obviously overpowered and dominates lob games (which this game has turned into). it can easily out maneuver any other ship and still do great amounts of damage.
maneuverability should have never been a special ability for this game. it overpowers every other ability by simply causing slow play by avoiding engaging with less maneuverable ships.
all ships should be equal in manueverability----every ship should have a special quality that sets it apart from other ships, but doesnt make it advantageous to the point where the special ability out-performs all of the other ones.
if the ships were balanced accordingly, every ship would be used in league. this is obviously not the case. warbird is and always has been heavily favored. that says a lot about how effective out maneuvering someone can be... either slow the warbird down to the level of every other ship, or speed up all the other ships to the level of the warbird (the latter would be preferred to avoid throwing off maneuvering settings more people are accustom to)
OTHERWISE, if people adore the warbird settings as is, i suggest nerfing the warbird with -100 top energy. that should counter balance the advantageous back bombing people do while abusing warbird. all other ships can remain unchanged then.
thoughts?
