All this game is online is people in interceptors farming

The A wing is the worst of them all, one of if not the fastest ships in the game with a shield and mines to boot. No point in any of the other ship types when all it’s ends up being every round is who can get the most kills as an interceptor. 

you can win without a dedicated support or bomber, but you cannot win without a dedicated fighter or interceptor. I cannot even bring myself to place in ranked because every single round is the same.

  • If that is so, use it to your advantage.

    Curious how consistently that 5 fighter squadron is gonna perform in fleet battles. 😉 

  • I agree with your comments. I am finding this game has a lot more tactical and strategic elements then I originally thought. I treat this game like a 5 a side sport - so you have dedicated defensive and offensive roles. You could also go deeper and look at Flight Teams and Captain / Squadron Leader which we have done.

    Against even half competent team shooting down bombers aint so easy as you think. Time to kill bombers is so long that killing em gives good oportunity for enemy interceptors or what ever to kill you even before you can kill the bomber especially against empire. 

    First of all why should you play with only fighters or bombers when you can fly any ship at any point. But if you would have team full of bombers or fighters for what ever reason both of thous teams would perform poorly. One team would lack offensive power and other defensive power. Mix of all ship types is much better or using 1 type more depending on situation cuz you know you can change your ship during matches... 

    Why would you care about exp when you can get all upgrades open in under 80h and most of thous upgrades are useles anyway so about 40h of playing and you have all you need. 

    Btw interceptors don't have any anti capitalship weapon and fighters does not have even nearly as powerfull anti capitalship weapons compared to bombers neighter do they have hitpoints to survive capitalship attack like bombers do. Allso bombers do have anti fighter weapons that are really effective why not use them?
