And this is not really a problem (it makes sense for big ships) u can always hide somewher and hit enemies from long distance…
But anytime I find a frigade it’s very easy for me to destroy it coz it’s a sitting duck…lol
Problem is that all the 6 turrets fire in the same direction…Not good for me!!!
A think at least 2 of them must protect, at least, sides of the ship and fire automatically…
I mean on 2 turrets (at least) should be possible to select some options…kind of
:
Defend ship
Attack nearest target
Attack my target
In this way i can direct main fire with four front turrets where i want while 2 turrets can fire automatically if some quick ship approaches from other sides. Best options for me would be to have another turret defending the back of the ship, so 3 front turrets and other thre defending sides and back of the ship with selectable options.
In this way attacking a frigate would be more difficault and not so easy like now coz when u fire u got to avoid fire from automatic turrets at least, instead of simply hitting a sitting duck till it bangs.
In the last skill tree there are a few skills/modules which help to make the frigate more resistant to all kinds of damage.
Your idea sounds nice, but the Federation frigates already got turrets/drones which shoot automaticly so it would be unfair if the Empire frigates would also get this ability.

Really…
didn’t know that…Only federation frigates have drones???
This willl explane why haven’t found any till now coz i’m i federation too…
Balance is just what i’m talking about and frigates are the only ships in the game that can’t evade fire at all,
so once you find one it’s done…I think they must be rebalanced…
Am I the only one thinking that destroyng a frigate is so fuc… easy???
Frigates have the strongest hull/shield and the biggest firepower so they need a disadvantage and believe me when you get the right skill unlocked the frigate is really hard to kill.
Thats the price for the highest possible damage and a high amount of HP. It’s intended that frigates can be outmaneuvered, if they are alone. They shall need backup from their team mates. A frigate duo can be very powerful.

Of course i believe u m8
But… errrr… what’s the right skill? So i can give it a try
After all this is a beta and we r all here to test and improve the game quality
I loved Black Prophecy pvp and i do hope this game won’t make me miss BP anymore
I agree, sometimes you really are a sitting duck when using a Frigate, but maybe you’re going in open field alone:
1- Try to buy anti-missles modules, they help alot for people firing missles at ~2000m
2- If you are trying to defend a beacon put yourself near the Guard drones, trust me that rapid-fire weapon users wont touch you (and they’re your main worry)
3- Try to be sure to always have someone/a bot following you.
Frigates may seem sitting ducks at first, but higher tier ones are really dangerous and have nearly the double of the Hull than the Tier 1 (At least me, I’ve seen T1 frigs with 6000 hull and T2 with 10000, so I don’t know)
