im pretty disappointed with game balancing

so my design - BSE - ASF 04 Stealth fighter - Earth Variant -

unloaded mind you needs 18 downwards small thrusters to make it function to a respectable level like imagine 18 downwards thrusters needed to sustain a small grid lightly armoured fighter that seems wrong to me and this design is compact lets say i did not build compact your games just wrongly balanced feels way off looks wrong looking at it thrust to weight ratio to what light armour offers is a joke.


like lets say i compensate for lack of underthrust so i added thrusters now the weight of the ship suffers my left to right thrust suffers and it becomes a balancing act of trying to make it even balanced what add's further weight to the puzzle and at some point it just starts to look awfully stupid can you as a company re-evaluate the game balancing and mechanics to make it bearable like i cant help but look at the design and say its stupid that it is the baseline to get a design to function armoured crazy as, like a weapons pack is not going to cut it for me there need's to be major re-balancing of fundamental principles i cant look at something and say its stupid and that's how i feel looking at the amount of thrusters i added.

like you cant be that blind its a compact design only using light armour be real please i don't care the method you use to evaluate how to compensate for the fact it feels wrong looks wrong and probably is wrong but sought it out please.

I have a small grid ship, it weights some 70 tons and is very compact. It can be destroyed or disabled with handheld guns. Not rocket launchers, just guns.

Now imagine a real world object of 70 tons, lets say a tank. Take a 5.56mm gun, such as are in game and go shoot it. See what damage you do. You would propebly scratch the paint or destroy some delicate instruments on the outside. Even after a milion bullets you wouldnt destroy a tank. not even with 25mm nato rounds.


Everythingh ingame is too heavy and offers extremly litle protection per weight. I am in mould and die industry, been here for 15 years. I work on and move chunks of steel from a couple grams to several tons every day. I would say i have a preety good idea on how durable steel is.

Also i think Keen' s "experts" are no more than a mob of pencil pushers who never worked a proper job day in their lives. They just sit at their desks and halucinate at how the world is rather than going in the world and seeing how it is.

And when you say you are disapointed. Most of us are.

I've now tried to read your insane meandering word vomit three times to even start to understand what you're on about, but I still got nothing. Dude, use some goddamned punctuation! Or normal punctuation, either type should work. And think about what you want to type before you type it instead of just puking out whatever words happen to bounce around in your head! It's like you just copied some of that random word salad out of a spam mail that uses it to fool spam filters. Who do you expect to take the time to try to understand your message when you yourself can't even take the time to make your message understandable??

He used the random text generator :)


But seriously, not everybody has your texting skills, also people have different first languages and might only just use English on occasion, so it comes out less than perfect. If you re-read it ten times and ignore grammatical issues you can get the general idea what the author is saying.

Which is the point of theese forums, not to judge and criticize their english skills.


Just saying, you know..


Cheers

I'll have you know that my first language may or may not be not English either. But that's not relevant anyway. After all, you still see me, even recognise me, putting at least some appreciable amount of effort into what and how I write.

Which is exactly my point: Mistakes happen. Skills may be lacking. That's fine. Not everyone has skills in the same areas. But not even bothering to make oneself understandable, that's just taking the piss, and I'm not in the habit of tolerating, even rewarding, laziness and indifference. Sure, I might get it after the tenth time. But why should I bother at this point? OP certainly didn't. For all I care, OP's request can sink into oblivion. (And yes, I am aware of the irony that posting to say so contributes to preventing it from doing just that.)

It takes two to communicate. Otherwise it's just random bleating in the void. Like Twitter.
