well the only one who cares about FFs are the victims - as long as the shooter is successful he/she doesn't care.
imaging a torpedocruiser replaces his ptorp with emptorp....i believe it would be way more powerful then any uebermodded dread because it is maneuvrable and has a faster jumpcharge and in case of destruction the resloss is minor. reminds me to the AC with nukes only as a special weapon against kluthdreads (although it's not as effective as the emptorpcruiser).
leave it like it is there are plenty of smart combies of modding to accomedate the individual play of players; we don't need more "superdestroyers/-cruisers" - 1 destroyer should never be a serious threat to a cruiser (same 1 cruiser vs. 1 dread) if u compare the pure firepower. i rather believe that the real motivation is to be able to attack a juicy fat target which is larger all on ure own without being worried to get fragged cause it's weapons are at least temporarely disabled.

how about the emp torp causes NO hull damage and NO armor damage (or shields) only system damage...... and i think Ugto should be able to mod this *along with the icc* i think the icc should be able to mod this i mean they gotta have spies that would steal this info.

How about a torpedo a bit like the leech cannon, when it hits it drains a certain amount of energy from your energy reserves. does no damage to the hull or shields, just drains your energy banks.

EMP torps wouldnt be a bad addition, but only if they are available to all factions. After all, the EMP mines & EMP cannons can be mounted on all 3 factions ships, why can't the torps? These are not Flux torpedos. Just keep the ammo low & the recharge longer then other torps.

Whoa Whoa let's not abandon this idea here... EMP torpedoes would be far more useful than flux... maybe we could entirely eliminate flux waves from the game in favor of EMP torpedoes... they would only be available to UGTO off the bat, but all factions could use em.... I say you give em the same recharge and ammo stats as AM torps... They do reasonable damage to shields, but minimal damage to armor... However once shields/armor is eliminated, they can completely trash systems...
UGTO specializes in EMP type weapons, no reason to change that

oke this is my second post on this topic .. i wonder y ppl keep complaining about flux if u see a ship comming at you without firing it'z guns ... what doi u think they gonna do ? come close to u n give u a dam kiss ? .. come on be real if u are a good pilots as ya think you are then ya should know enought when ya should run .. n when u should stay so stop complaining other ppl when it'z ya own lack of commonsense rthat keep getting you kill, sure i use flux but i dun't complain when i get kill by it to .. sice it'z very easy to counter it ... and flux waves are usless on max range or with armor shield so y dun't u think about putting ya sheld where ya need it sinsterd of complaining .. anyway massive fluxwave woun't be a prob with the new patch since ya can only keep one .. and who say u should face a cruzer with a dread .. anybody with half a brain knows that on 1 on 1 .. cruzers own dread anytime .. this is a team game so it'z ya own fault if u think gowing out your own with a dread and expecting not to get kill .. look it'z looking like ugto strong point is their ability to kill system then let them be juz like icc and kluth have their own advantage ... btw i'll pick icc ac anytime over ugto torp cruzer .. torpcruzers are juz fat lumpy ship ... anyway i think i've got what i wanna say so wel .. all i can say now is .. enjoy the game and insterd of complaining try to be a better pilots ... and as i say b4 torps can alwayz be out turn with any ship smaller then dread so if u get hit by it learn to fly b4 ya start complaining and dreads .. if u go out on your own at least be graceful when you die coz dread going out escot is juz digging your own grave .. wel i think emp torps r pretty fine idea .. good day and good gamining
