Actually I like 3.17 but my only concern is the balance. In previous version M2 ship is all I have to build and it kills any other ship easily. I really like to see how the weapon/equipment affects the ship's capability like in EVE. Big ships with big/slow guns should not be able to easily hit small and fast ship. Few small ships may not harm the big ships in any ways but with sworms of small ships there is a still chance that the big fish can be eaten by small fish. But in current game small ship can't even get closer to the big ship.
I've played eve since 2003 and strongly believe X3 has done this aspect far better. Large ships, in reality, are more than capable of mounting FLAK artillery, capable of killing small fast moving ships. In eve, this has been nerfed like so many other things in eve. In eve, if it's working well, they nerf it
Anyway, the point is that it is far more realistic that large ships fielding FLAK type weapons should absolutely be able to burn through many small fighters. Eve screwed this up to force players to work in multi-role fleets, but it's simply their mindset of forcing people into groups and favoring the large groups over individuals. I do agree large guns should have a hard time tracking small targets. X3 models that somewhat already because large guns fire at a very slow speed, and often Do miss agile targets.
Out of my mind. Back in 5 minutes.
