do you use missiles in missions? sorry if i'm getting anoying at all ...but it is important to know the percentage of players using missiles. If a lot of you use missiles, I'll try finding out the secret to make them useful in missions XD.

If you want to find the percentage of players who use missiles, you need to add an "I never use them in missions" option too.

Then add one vote to that category for me :P

C´mon....

No missiles of course.
You are the first person I ever heard talking about using missiles in missions, in this server.

You´re wasting money on them, an all gun set up is much more effective (try all Fears for example, with one or two nomads to save energy), AND the most important thing, you´re destroying potential loot that is THE way to get big money out of missions in this server.

Funny how you forgot to add the option that probably 99 % of players would reply :lol:

oooh crazy loot eh? Yeah, for void, I'll completely forgo using missiles. HOWEVER, in original freelancer, they are not a waste of money if used just the right way and can help you finish missions at a significantly quicker pace so you can do more missions during a given time XP. I just want that to be true with VOID because missiles are fun to use in missions if they are devastating XP.

lol..i've picked secret millitary files off of enemies and a lot of npcs were chasing me around lol. there goes my decent rep...lol

Also, I have posted earlier in this thread that I tried to enter "no missiles" as one of the choices (most important choice) but it didn't show up. XP when i use the "edit" to change that, the change failes too XD lol.

I dont use missles, prefer my guns all the way. Cost's less credits using just guns.

I like missles. you can take out a nomad in 1 shot if done right, but it gets real expensive, as stated before. So I alternate if I'm having trouble.

Try the new Anubis with an Energy upgrade, full of Fears. You nearly won't get any energy drain and the Fears pack a helluva punch ;)

no missiles,
I did have a cannonball for a while but I was only using it in PvPs
I only really use things with infinite ammo now except the occasional sunslayer... but I don't use that in missions either.

Yeah, like I posted in my other post ;), missile critical hits (ex: 9000 damage with lancers if played correctly) do not occur in VOID for some reason and therefore they're not worth it ;)...

My opinion is that I'd use one cannonball missile slot at all times if they crit but since they dont, I'll use only guns from now on. Torps for certain occations if I'm feeling lucky ;).
