first off the ratio of skyguards to liberators is more unbalanced than a fat kid playing dodge ball (no offense of course). i've used both the sky guard and the liberator. we all know the liberator is quite nasty with the having both the cluster bomb and the tank buster. the sky guard isn't so bad but it could be a little better. the actual flak on the gun takes time to travel and if you don't aim it correctly then.....well you just plain miss. i would like to see the flak move at a greater speed.


other stuff:
what do you think about the lib not having any AB's? i see no reason for them considering the pilots chain gun is incredibly strong, then the bombs alone are like artillery from the sky, and the rotating gun works wonders on squitos and reavers.


also, don't you just love watching the flak explode in the air? i just think its fun to watch (yeah i know i'm odd)

Well it seems the Dev's share your opinion, as they are working on AA weapons.

The NC AA max and VS AA max are like night and day, when we are flying a lib if we stay at max alt the VS cant even hit us, the NC will take you down in seconds. So some kind of balance needs to be found between all the AA weps

To this day I say the Skyguard should have been a tank, not a buggy.

it should be a buggy. its quick and easier to get away from air and ground troops.

And I can kill it with one bomb or one strafing run with my nose cannon.

I just like to say it would be really neat if the rear gunner on the liberator could blast oncoming missles down.

It wouldn't be too powerful of a thing to have and it would add a defence to the bomber that makes sense...seeing as the rear gunner can't fire above the tail leaving it very useless against anything that fly above and fires down.

ALSO THEY NEED TO PUT IN BODY LOCATED DAMAGE I WANT HEAD SHOTS!!! HEAD SHOTS!!!

thats we be a good idea but it would be hard to hit the missile so is it worth the patching. you ever see a phoenix missile in the air? it doesn't go straight, it like strafes left to right making it hard to hit

i totally agree

the sniper cert really doesnt get enough attention. sure the things are annoying as hell when your in a battle actually fighting up close and personal and then watch your health get zapped to 35...... then you die
