The ship is only as good as its pilot. A lot of the people here who say BC are better than HAC's im fairly sure have only tried them in missions.
Ireckon i could beat their bc in my hac, then beat their hac in my bc, but enough of that.
Tier 1 bc are really good never mind tier 2. with the right fittings t1 bc > hac. but same the other way round. half the time the decisive factor can be luck/ and who keeps their nerve, and most importantly tactics.
oh and to move onto the OP's point ...
"With the new Tier 2 BC's, why on earth would anyone buy a rediculously priced HAC? Am I missing something here? I compared the stats of the Drake vs Cerberus and the Harbinger vs Zealot. Both Tier 2 BC's are overall better yet I can fully T2 fit one of those BC's and save 50-100 mil on the cost of the HAC ship ALONE!
Anyone else seeing what I am seeing? HAC prices simply have to get about a 75% price cut unless people out there are stupid enough to buy them at those absurd prices with the new BC's out."
what you dont factor into this is that some people, unlike you, can afford to lose expensive ships. They maybe absurd prices to you, but to players that have been in the game for years, and who have accumulated isk, they can afford to lose one every few weeks no problem, even with fittings that cost twice as much as the ship.

HACs are not better then BCs, id take my drake over a HAC tbh. it insures better, has an awsome tank, great DPS and much higher Versitility.
would be interseting v an ishtar tbh. i think that would be a close call.
