Topic: MAJOR IMPROVEMENT SUGGESTION

I haven't played since 2007. Has 1.4 Fixed the issue below?

Ok. I was flying the X-wing the other day ( very cool by the way smile ) and I hit f12 to see my fighter in the fly by perspective. The thing basically crawled along at full speed.. Why has no one brought up the fact that these fighters fly so slowly? Atleast increase the speed by a 1/3 and that will really make dogfights fun and skill engaging.

Remember all of the star wars movies? These things flew by at hair raising speed. That's what made the dog fights so fun. Transfer theory into practice and you have a perfect mod. smile

Oh ya! 1 more thing - when regular lasers zip by, I don't hear anything. Where is the "zzzing?" I'm hearing a sound when the "ion missiles" (we'll call them that) zing by, but not when regular lasers are fired. This would give those dogfights that extra tingle when you hear those things zipping past you.

Re: MAJOR IMPROVEMENT SUGGESTION

You have a boost.  And the reason it may seem slow in the fly by is, I believe, because all the fighters are proportionately slower then they'd actually be to compensate for the limits of map size.

There is a "zzzing" on regular bolts

Re: MAJOR IMPROVEMENT SUGGESTION

the faster we make ships, the more impossible they are to hit due to the hit detection
the zzzing is there, what are your sound settings?
