Hello all.
It won't take too long for 2.3 to hit live and I was wondering what is people ship of choice to use in MC.
I will play with my brother and a friend, and since they are fairly new to the game they don't have the credits to get a ship with enough firepower to play the three of us at the same time.
I was planning on gearing my Gunship with four turreted burst lasers for the gunner and a fighter bay for the other player while I use the large and small hardpoints for forward fire. Does it sound fun to you if you were to man the turrets? Burst lasers sound good or should I choose another type of weapon? Should I go full turrets while I pilot the ship and ram them to death?
Regards.
I love my new Gunship (even I was surprised), but for multi-crew I'd only use it if my friend wanted to fly the SLF. I don't feel like it has enough firepower to divide it in two between the helm and the gunner, without getting frustrating or boring for one of them. And as said, it only has a second seat anyway. If you're going to MC in a gunner on a Gunship, well... you might as well be in a Python instead, as you won't be able to use the SLF.
I have vague plans to save up the 500M I'd need for a combat Anaconda purely for multi-crew combat, but I've decided to ignore that goal for the moment as I don't want to bore myself grinding cash.
