I miss the days when T2 was Interceptor Conflict, and LRF stood for “Look, Recon Fodder!”
As far as what other players are doing in game… If they are derping it up most likely they are just as frustrated as you are but the difference is they either will not improve and eventually get tired of being owned then go play DOTA2… Or they will rage quit after a couple of bad games and go play DOTA2… Either way the problem solves itself.
Implying they didn’t come to Star Conflict because they were tired of being owned at Dota 2 :005j:

You’re a wrong thread.
Well, in T2, Disintegrator range is ridiculous. by the time you get close enough to even just lock on them, you ate a bunch of shots in the face. And you also have to get past all the other enemies.
In T2, matches mostly consist of hiding behind rocks because you simply can’t go out in the open without getting raped by Disingtegrators.
I want to actually dogfight, but it’s impossible when I have to zig-zag crazily or die from Disintegrators.
No. In t2 the problem don’t come from Desintegrator but the target.
I love playing LRF, and you can clearly see a difference in LRF from t2 to t3.
Many players in t2 fly too straight and so take shoots on their face.
When I face another LRF in my Sigurd, I fly in the direction of the laser for 3 seconds and then suddenly strafe on a random direction, leading to the sniper miss ALL of his shots while I hit him with positron.
With this trick, you should be able to face most of the LRF players.

Just for the record, Dota 2 is MUCH harder, the learning curve is MUCH steeper, games are MUCH more frustrating (matches can last 45-60 minutes or longer, and you get quite the punishment for leaving) and tiring, and the amount of insulting and moronic teammates us MUCH higher. I have 1200 matches behind me in Dota2, taking a break from it now.
SC is quite the relaxation for me after Dota 2.

Well, as one of the targets, from my side it looks like that I’m trying to dogfight then I suddenly have the targeting laser beam chasing me… and from that point, depending on the ship I fly:
-
Interceptor: Most of my time/effort is used up on dodging the friggin shots, and not much is left for actual fighting.
-
Fighter: All my effort is wasted on dodging, and whoever wants to dogfight me can easily take me down because if I start focusing them instead, get shot by LRF
-
Firgate: I run for the nearest cover like crazy, zigzagging with bursts of afterburner as much as my Verniers let me, while I’m a nice juicy free kill for any nearby fighter or interceptor. Even if I make it to the cover I take a few shots. Then I’m forced to stay behind, or of I come out I take shots.
— Except with Guard. That’s the only role which which I don1t bother, I just put phase shield on Thermal and eat LRF shots for breakfast.
Now, when the number enemy LRF’s chasing me with their beams is 2 or 3… xxxx just gets worse.
Of course, it is also a factor that I started playing quite recently, so I’m still relatively new and not so experienced. I’m still experimenting with the module loadout for some of my Rank 6 ships. Still… the moment those friggin beams find me, the dogfight is over and I have to run for my life.
Point is… if you play T2 you should know how it looks EVERY SINGLE TIME: When enemy has disintegrators, whole team is forced to hide behind rocks and fight around the edges. That’s not what I call a dogfight… it’s more of a tunnelrat fight.

I agree, I have almost 1000 hours of Dota 2 and I can tell how tiring the game can be.
I tried playing a game like DotA once. I got a ton of abuse for being new, for admitting to being knew, and for not being a master of the game without ever having played a match.
Decided everyone playing that game should go die of aids, and never played again.

With such attitude, I’m very happy you don’t play Dota 2 so I don’t have to meet you in a match.
We should not disallow the players to use the ship they want, on the other hand the game should not spawn bot using disintegrator LRF, because either on some rocks map they are useless and just pratice targets for players, or either on open map they are extremely anoying because to have to cope with players LRF is enough, no reason to add bots to this nighmare.
So I say, Bot should not spawn as disintegrator frigate.
