This is straight from the tooltip in-game:
Missile damage scales with ship size: frigates get the most damage.
So how does it make sense to have the doomsday missile available to so many others? This really should only be a frigate missile. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again. Smaller ships are harder to hit. It is unfair to give them such an OP missile when they do not match the scale of a frigate. As the tip says. Please, just remove it from all but the frigates.
I think recons should have anomaly generators.
ECM > Attack Drones
Covop > slowing
Gunship > energy spay
Command > minefield
Tackler > proxy
Engineer > nuke
LRF > Firestorm (I’m serious about this one. JLRF matches it. Screw balance yay!)
Guard > The Ramming module/commie stunner
Doomsdays suck.
Not naming any names but a squad of WPKs vsed a squad of GoDs in skirmish and they went straight for the cap with 2 doomsdays. insta kill. I was on their team and even i thought it was, well, noobish. Not that they are noobz, just that they implemented bad tactics.
P.S. Your little .replace(Ace, ace) does not work when you add a z to the end. Go back and start coding again.

“bad tactics” don’t win you games… or am i missing something?
And It was me and Kurdi. 0 xxxx given

how i regular expressions
Doomsday is sorta OP on fast ships indeed. But using it in a recon game on the captain is not bad tactics, it’s just effective. Play with the cards you’re dealt man.

That’s not my point. They never had these missiles a few months ago. Why should they suddenly get this? It has broken the game. I dodge so many doomsday missiles because I know how much they suck. But that doesn’t stop ppl from spamming them, and sometimes they hit me in ways I cannot avoid. Again, it’s just game-breaking when, I have half hull against an inty, and they blast away a HUGE chunk of it (sometimes getting the kill) just by clicking a button that fires a missile that does WAY more than what was originally on their craft.
No. It doesn’t make sense to increase the damage of a missile by so much, and it has closed the gap between frigates and interceptors. Something that doesn’t make sense. Any small ship should not be able to completely ravage a more sizable ship, especially within the same tier. That’s just completely unbalanced.
Can we please get this changed back to the way it was?

Cute, very cute.
Get rid of doomsdays completely.

People get mad when i name names.
Bad tactics do win you games if they are extremely unfair and taking advantage of an exploit.

The problem is, players see exploits as a
“WELL IT’S THE DEV’S FAULT, SO I GUESS I’LL USE IT ANYWAYS!!!”
And that’s NOT the mindset that corporation players should have. We are supposed to lead through example. Not lead through exploits.

Engle, you are brilliant.

Its something that was intended, its not a bug. how can you just go around and label it as an exploit?
Again, its not a " bad tactic" if it wins the game
Get your definitions right

What are you smoking? Do you even know what an exploit is? Doomsday was INTENDED by the devs…
:01414:
OHH you mad ? :)
really … small ship… shouldn’t … big … ship … what ?
Covert ops vs ? covert wins ?
doomsday WHAT ?
My rant for the day
Sigh… as we hear so often in this game… when you lose… “You have died an Honorable death”.
SO the question is begging to be asked… in this game is there such a thing as an Honorable death ?
What would be considered an dishonorable death ?
Is there such a thing as good or bad tactic if you have reached your objective ?
In my eyes if you did not achieve whatever you were attempting then that tactic may have been FLAWED.
Of course my favorite
that kill is NOT SKILLFUL… as it was done by a BOT… Drone… Doomday missile… ( insert what ever weapon here) that does not require perfect aim.
Hmm in the days of Beta … I remember being called SKILL LESS for killing ppl with standard homing missiles while they were in COOL down… NO HONOR ! dang as the same ppl use to wait until your HEALTH was near zero… and then SCOOP in for the final blow.
aah the clamor about STEAL KILLs
SPAWN camping… oh noooo not GOOD… should not do it !! BUT sometimes it becomes paramount … but wait… now we have spawning sort of spread out… but not quite ( HINT HINT Team Battle)
Shouldn’t it be WHATEVER it takes WITHIN the RULES we have to abide by to win that battle be the mantra ?
Adapt\learn and overcome or keep dying…
I know I still have not figured out much on that keep dying part.

It was not intended to be used in mass like 2 doomsdays one captain.
He smokes sweet rolls. i’m his dealer.

Yeah but 2 doomsdays is downright noobish.
Killing with multiple doomsdays is dishonorable.
Could you lay off JP’s sweet rolls. You will never be JP!
ha i killed him and mine are smokable.

By traditional definition, yes you are correct. But when a ship class that was originally intended to NOT be able to deal such damage is suddenly able to do so with practically no other changes in the game made to prevent against it, then it IS something to take note of.
It’s not an “exploit” you are right. But I’ll be damned if it’s actually considered “fair” by anyone other than people who use it. To be honest, I could put doomsday missiles on every ship I own, but I do not? Why? Because I do not believe in them, and I like to have a fair fight. And yes. I have used them, and I got some kills that I was like “well that was xxxx easier than I thought…” which is how everyone who uses them thinks all the time.
Again, it’s not an exploit, it’s just really really unfair for one major reason. It gives intys the ability to deal massive damage to frigates (who can’t really dodge it) and allows them to NOT take that damage because they CAN dodge it. Simple mechanics, horrible weapon.
