Yup, this game has an astonishing amount of bads and leavers. Makes sense though, it was advertised by TB after all.

Turns out my frigate does fine.
I just can't... I just don't fucking get it.
Won a game where i finished 9/0/8
Lost a game where i finished 10/7/7.... but realistically I was 10/4/7 because 3 deaths occurred at the end while i tried to suicide to get the second sci so we could get both missiles to finish it at the end.
One player I had seen do well before got totally shut down, I was the ONLY positive ratio player on my team (and one of 3 out of 6 pos. before), while being literally 5th worst rank on the server. This makes ZERO sense.
I need to just start whoring KDR so I can lol about that while being terribad rated.
started this one 5/1/1, all solo kills except for one, and two guys left game. AWESOME
finished 9/5/1, with 1 death due to disconnect and 1 due to me derping and thinking I could quantum jump an asteroid, then realizing the skill was still on cooldown and suiciding.
was 6v6, was 6v4 for lot of the game........

I tried to be cool and all I got was a lousy warning about my sig being too big.
playin now, let's go.
add hels yo :P
Had some awesome games in my 'stealth bomber' frigate, 3-4 in a row top kills. Skills:
Stealth
Rockets
Torps
+1... been trying jamming, prob stick with blink for escaps + ninja capping over asteroids etc.
Get 1 point in stealth, 3 in torps (torps gonna torp!) . Others w/e u want
Then for some reason i decided to roll Dread (zero upgrades...) and had the most boring/depressing game of my life 1hr lose. Felt like the whole game anyone could just run away from me with ease.
Back to frigate for me!![]()
Flying a Dread atm is pure masochism. I really tried to make it work, but as Dread, you get picked off immediately.
2 reasons:
1. You are in the biggest ship with technically the biggest lategame potential. People realize that and kill you early to deny you farm and gimp you, thus rendering you incapable of doing more damage than lighting your own farts with an empty lighter.
2. Torps are the instakill skill of choice. Every ship right now not using Torps are people who dont get kills (a.k.a. those who cant play). Current metagame means that there are so many torps flying around everywhere that your fat ass is going to get a pounding in the rear, no matter your defences. Dreads cannot dodge Torps for shit if they are aimed halfway decent. Torps mean you get kills. Kills mean you get money. Money is what Dreads dont have, because they die all the time.
So. Frustrated.
Tonight I am drinking with a buddy from work, but I will go with the FOTM flow and just pick a stealth torp rocket frigate. If you cant beat em, join em.
Still rollin and lollin in the corvette. B)
In order to do well at this game you *really* need to have an arranged team up.
Of my 20+ games, I've won 6, of those 4 were arranged teams + me, the other 2 had leavers on the enemy team.
Of the games I lost, I'd say 10 of them were against arranged teams and the rest were leavers/retards.
edit, small game 3v3 with 2 dreads and a cruiser on battleground = lololol we shall not be moved.
End score was 3-0 mainly because they simply couldn't shift us from the capture point without getting stasis webbed and raped by heavy guns.

Armour Rep xxx
Scanner
Escorts xxx
Rockets
Armour, Shield and Firepower CP
Rocket escorts medal
Hull CP reduction medal
Big slow ships are literally shit cause you can't outtank being focus fired but you can zoom away, and fuck dps from turrets when everyone and his mother is carrying rocketz, missiles and torps.
TBH this follows fairly standard warfare. Small ships rule in a skirmish, but you try to beat 3 cruisers with countermeasures (aww all your wittle wockets went poof) team shields reps and command fields. They'll just chug through you and you'll not be able to do jack shit. They don't work in 1s or 2s but in a 4 they'll mash you.
I watched the youtube video by TB right up until he said that it took real money to upgrade your ships. I just... closed the tab. No thanks.
one time payment to get the higher level of ships.

And in any case, anyone who can't afford $10 as disposable income shouldn't be playing online games? v0v
