Auto Aim Weapons Worst Decision Ever!
These weapons have ruined the game. It had taken all skill and fun out if what could have been a cool dogfighting skill based game. 5 people just com and ping targets and you are dead faster than you...

Weapons with auto aim sacrifice half the damage. Anyone using it auto-loses any head on shootout.
@court_jester77x Forgot to add that if you go head to head and try an evasive move against an opponent with guided weapons, again especially the rotary type, he will shred you.
- @MKh501 If you are getting tailed by bombers you have bigger problems than autoaim weapons. And why on earth would you want to do evasive moves head on against incoming damage that is already halved. Just go straight guns blazing and vaporize the guy.
- @court_jester77x I try avoiding head ons as I like to survive as long as possible. Also, if (hopefully) they add a hard core mode, head ons will be decided on which one fires first, possibly killing both as the instant you fire, you need to bank away and that is really tricky.
@MKh501The bomber has basically no other option than a head on once he gets attacked. He can not outmaneuver an a-wing, the only thing he can do is boost away, do a 180 drift, and head on his attacker. Using a weapon with half DPS is a suicide here.
The only way autoaim rotary gives any advantage is if the bomber is left alone and fires from range at a target that's already busy fighting someone else. And then only if the player is a newbie with bad aim.
I have tried the autoaim rotary before and dropped it like a hot potato, because i simply could not do enough damage in the short time window you usually have against a competent pilot. Full-DPS rotary on the other hand often kills an a-wing before he even realizes he's taking damage.
