We're still uncertain about the total number of victims caught in the blast radius of the ner!@#$%^&*eddon. Scientists are working hard to uncover what caused this horror to happen and how to stop it from expanding.

Most of the researchers agree that whatever caused this to happen had insane amount of "newb whining" in it, which was then triggered by "getting pwned multible times" causing the Ner!@#$%^&*eddon.

 

Our on-field reporter is currently at the state hospital trying to locate the sole survivor of the newest blast.

You're live.

 

"It was a complete suprise to me, i was just flying around with my tiny little spaceship shooting randomly to alien ships. Suddendly I started hearing this whining kind of a noise which just got louder and louder, and then BANG, my shields were dropped around 50% of the max and engine systems suffered irrepairable damage. I had to make an emergency landing and luckily i hit the ocean, so i stayed remotely intact."

 

Conspiracy theorists have been rioting all over the world claiming that the ner!@#$%^&*eddon was caused by their governments.

The rioters claim that the Sharks could only 1vs1 newbs. Anything with even moderate skills meant either a long time spamming bullets to the nme face and hoping for a hit while running away OR immediate death.

 

The Riot's leader shared some of his insight.

 

"Totally unskilled people are the ones who complain about sharks, but even before this idiotic change they were VERY weak ships, the WEAKEST by far. This change just makes them a totally useless ship with absolutely NO value of any kind."

 

"People complain about the Shark because some ppl use the Shark in center as a lame weapon of vulching - then ppl complain because they always get killed by Sharks in center, but the reality of the situation is that they are really being killed by other ships, the Shark just flies in quickly out of nowhere, and delivers the final few shots to make the kill."

 

"ppl with no skill and no aim complain over and over about something that is about a fighting STYLE, NOT a Ship settings issue."

 

I have to say. This reporter totally agrees. We only had 2 fighter ships, now one is utterly useless. That leaves the wb as the only choise for both basing and centering. (though some people use javs with nice results). Most pilots agree that using a WEASEL or TERR in center gets you utterly pwnd, not to mention LANC or now the SHARK. LEVI is only useful for safelaming.

If you want a fighter ship - Wb is the way to go.

if you want a basing ship - Wb here too.

Whatever you do - Wb is the choice.

 

Too bad that you can only carry 1 wb and rest of the ships are just pretty much useless. Mostly because when people find that something can pwn their stupid wbs it gets totally nerfed.

 

PS

reps are still too damm powerful

I demand a refund for making my favorite ship completely obsolete

A+ for effort

[krizzlybear]

Get a Jav

 

but seriously, i agree that an energy reduction was in order, but i didn't expect it to be THAT much. make it just enough so they can get ohko'ed from any bomb.

if we're nerfing anything that's "lame", please address the shredder and levi as well.

suggestion:

 

if you're making shark a scout ship, give it a unique flag radar. it counts as 2 sensors, so if the shark wants energy scanner he'll need a converter.

 

anyways, a lvz could pop up, and if you're near a flag itll show it on the map and point to the coordinates

Nice idea

I moved shark energy back up some, but not all the way back.
