Spider Jeru	Posted - 2003.06.28 10:35:00 - [1] Clearly missiles need all kinds of adjustment. Right now they're more of a joke than a threat...for God's sake, the only valid missile tactic is MWD'ing to point blank range and crapping out missiles literally on top of your target. Lower the firing times. Up the fitting req's, but lower weight. Make them fireable quicker. OR Keep the current firing times. Up the speed, and up the damage...get it to the point where getting hit by a heavy hurts a LOT (currently about 60% of my turret damage) getting hit by a torpedo is LETHAL, and getting hit by a Cruise is YOUR ASS. As it is, slow + heavy + low damage + easily avoided + expensive = worthless.
