Wait. What? How is it that I didn’t start this thread? My favorite total bald-faced lie in this thread so far is by ELM: “My ship is slow at a top speed of 446.” Yep, that’s what sane people call ‘slow’. LOL.
Super-maneuverable 446m/s disable-machines that can instantly pop invincibility, AND PULL RECONS OUT OF WARP! - are OP. Everybody knows it. The people who are defending the ECMs here also know it, but they just love their precious ecm (jerkship™) too much to admit it in public. The people who say disables are a necesity? No, flying and weapons are really the only necessity in a space combat game. And ECM prevents people from flying. People come to this game to fly and fight in space, and taking away the flying part is super super annoying.
