Cough.

Interceptors can take out a dragon with two in one hit, kay? they just gotta be fired right, go back and try, it takes some skill, or are you not getting it....?
Hornets home fine, you just need to fire them at the correct angle, and have your speed moving correctly in relation to the enemy fighters speed.
PV's are another matter, I actually agree that you can only hold a few which is too few, especially compared to Trebs, however PV pack more punch, They are also pretty much COMPLETELY Reserved for bombers/frieghters/Cruisers/Destroyers.
I personally love knocking out those Dragon's with the PV's in Failure to Communicate
The Two do have differences in forms of game physics, but that isn't really much, I have always relied on a combination of weapons in FS2, point is, in both games, I have a tendancy of locking one, firing missiles at it, and killing another two with primaries in the time it takes the first to die.
There is just a matter of using the weapons differently, they are no more or less effective in either game, FS2 has a few different weapon values, Maxim, for example, it's alright...erm...for caps, but then you need it a bit...heh

What I'm struggling to understand, my pedigree chum, is why you are in a FreeSpace forum *****ing about how much the game sucks and holds no challenge for you. Would it not be easier to just a) not play it and b) stop *****ing. I mean, you've proven that you don't give a flying **** about the background or plot, and so if the actual gameplay is so pants, why do you play? Why are you here?
Perhaps you could find a new game, one worthy of your mad skillz?
Diamond, as we have said REPEATEDLY Throughout this thread
FS1 Single Player, FS1 Multiplayer, FS2 MultiplayerThat would be why.
There is challenge, even if the only challenge is other humans.
I train people on PXO in the hope that they'll get better then I will, or at least better to be a challenge.
As for your quote, from a DIFFERENT THREAD, yeah, I read it wrongly, I've recently been dealing with a few issues about the online multiplayer 'bugs'.
I had 'Eri After burner max = 130' Stuck in my head, and I knew that I had left it to someone else to report it to the Source Code Project (Quiz, actually...hehe) so I figured there might have been a few crossed wires, if I'd done more then skim-read the topic, I probably wouldn't have butted in, I'm not calling you a liar for dodging beams, I'm telling you, you don't understand how they work.
Refer to Stun's quote.

Final point.

Expansion upon that final point.
