Yuki76702 18 Report post Posted January 16, 2014 basically a map where the defending team Has a dreadnought that needs resupplied and they need to defend Unarmed transport ships while they make their way to the dreadnought and the attacking team are the Pirates that need to attack the transports to stop them from resupplying the dreadnought I was thinking the map could be in an asteroid belt Filled with ship debris with lots of moving debris meaning the map will change over the course of the battle making it harder to fight in without crashing 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
residente 717 Report post Posted January 16, 2014 Some ships, like LRF would be very strong in this map, because they would just snipe the transport ships from a safe distance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Engle 152 Report post Posted January 16, 2014 In my opinion, if a dreadnought were present, it would be in a shipyard. If that shipyard had been stripped by pirates, it would only make sense if there was random junk/debris floating in space, obstructing the LRF's view. It could be possible that in games like this, only small tactical fighters are allowed to play (maybe engies, too) to make it more "covert." Just my two cents.

Eviscerador 319 Report post Posted January 17, 2014 Looks good on paper, but the problem is, as stated, that LRF would be just OP on this mode. They can just snipe the transports from afar. It was already annoying to defend a clueless commander (fixed last patch, even if now I'm almost always the cap) so defending AI bots against human players would be even more annoying.

Yuki76702 18 Report post Posted January 18, 2014 But if the debris is moving about a lot wouldn't it make getting a clear shot too hard? not to mention if you stay in the same place for a long time then you aren't watching for pieces of debris coming your way making it more likely you will be hit by it?

JasanQuinn 1,680 Report post Posted January 20, 2014 The Dreadnought could have a shield bubble that absorbs all incoming fire (think an indestructible mobile barrier), forcing the attacker to fly inside of the shield to attack the Dreadnought. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know what to think of the LRF swarm if this mode appeared. *** EDIT *** I just necroposted again... didn't I... dammit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
