missiles

As far as im aware they arent supposed to that much, as most of them arent "homing" missiles, take note of the turn rate that'll give e better idea. the jackhammer for instance has a real high turn rate and "homes" very well, more like a cd. but a nemesis turn rate is so low that its barely a "homing" missile anyway, you have to know when/how to fire them. try the firestalker missile, that is a true homing missile but thier stats arent that high. trust me ive fired enough of em!!!

I've found that missiles in this mod are like rockets. You don't let the other guy know you have them and then, when he least suspects it, you shove them down his throat The jackhammer and firestalker are decent for homing, but the role of missiles has been severly downplayed. If they were to be a useful asset in their intended form their turnrates would have to be astronomical (imao it ought to take a CM or two to shake one missile).

I know what Burro is referring too.

In 1.57 the missles did operate correctly and were accurate in their scope of operation.

Now they just tumble right from launch.

Trust me, Im as frustrated as Burro. I can gunfight well, but those missles come in handy in a fight when you are heavily outnumbered & against Cruisers/ Battleships and trains when the shields are down.

Irs not just a prob with missiles homing either my CDs have not been homing much, just fires straight. the mosquitos still work most of the time but i havnt been able to get any hornets to work. Its a pain when chasing those cowardly pirates and u depend on those CDs to get em but they fail and the pirate gets away...

Something is awry if the majority of weps aren't tracking propery

Don't worry...they;re mostly fine gundam just can't stand pirates getting away from hisself ;P

Hehehehehehehehhhhh....
Thats hilarious... some guys on server started to be shootdown and suddenly they start looking surprised to the misseles, to the lag, to the keyboard....mhuahuahuahu

Amos posting from his tumb...

well the pirates commit suicide to escape from me or hide in there home system(u know who u r ) I just cant stop them cruising but manage to keep on their tails until they kill themselves or escape to an off limits system. but anyway I do find the homing probs annoying, it stops me from wiping out a few of those cowardly, pesky, little pirates that i love to hunt [9]. The missile part dont really matter to me since i never use em, but would be nice if they actually homed, would make for more interesting fights.

and on a side note..... [8] Death to LP [8]

I noticed that planet-diving tendency during the Assault Event Pirates will be pirates, there's nothing anyone can do about it

I used to be a pirate a loooooonggggg time ago before i converted and before i discovered CF but i was never cowardly like that.

O_o well this is wierd, my missiles r tracking fine, dont know what ur problems r

Better commit suicide than to be killed by BG scum!

I have done a clean install with nothing improved 4 times already.

Tell me if you have success.

Seems I am no longer effective in pvp...so I wont be doing any.

well, my missiles are just OK

and im playing with them all the time, and made almost 100 fights with them.

so, no problems with me.
well. dont take it to offensive guys, but, i think you could need some practice in PvP with the new mod.

I dont have probs with my missles....
Ask Simba if u want

Don't ask me - his missiles were hitting me, mine were chasing unknown object in a galaxy far far away . Seems like we really need some more practice on the new mod .

Hakuna matata,

I fas firing some missiles yesterday when there was heavy lag on the server... they were not tracking, unlike before. Perhaps missiles only perform as should be expected when there isn't much lag?

its nothing to do with practise myself and Gunny tested last night.

i was not moving he had target and it was about only 1 in 10 that locked, and that was from only 500km.

oh and practise? Gunny is one of the best on here and knows how to use the weps like missiles, CD's and torps [3]

Edit lance could be but at the time there was only bout 20 ppl on-line and no lag showing.
