  1. The Laser deployment of these ships is now a 1-2- (&) 1-2- (&) 1-2- (&) The (&) is almost a half a second, this is not good. What am I to do in the (&) part of a second that the lasers are not firing, run and hope not to take damage?

    What the heck did they do to them. That slows these ships down and making them Prey for other ships. I don't remember them ever firing like this....This makes these ships victims fall prey to the Goliath's and other ships as such.

    That little (&) Delay can get you damaged

  2. Doesn't matter what the graphics show.

    Your damage is only counted on a per-second. I remember during the Old DO time, I seemed to be firing A LOT faster than normal in my Goliath, there were a bunch of red laser graphics coming out. But when I looked at my damage numbers, it was showing 50% less damage, BUT, the numbers were showing after each other in 1/2 second intervals. For some reason, the game showed I was shooting 1/2 my guns at a time, so my overall DPS stayed the exact same.

  3. Yes, you were firing faster and further... I don't know what the heck they did to game but yeah its not good. They have also come out with these ICE rockets lol they are fun when you are in a 1v1 but in battle these guys spam the crap out of them lol... That takes the fun out of evasive maneuvers when you to evade 10 players all spamming you with ice rockets ...

    but yeah I don't know what these guys on the Development team are up to, they have done some good stuff bad too game as well.

    That happens on every game basically. I remember when around 2012 they changed the looking of new lasers, I started [REMOVED] about it, but it didn't fit back then. After they changed the look of drones and aliens + the UI, it started seeming normal. However, they should do these graphical updates in one whole patch and not like in parts, as it looks very stupid and gives people different opinions.

    However, I remember a case when dev team changed the sounds of the lasers and ISH/SMB and stuff, people started complaining about it again. Dev team reverted the changes like 2-4 weeks after it was implemented due to complaints, but remained the new x1 sounds for both, red and blue lasers.
