To be honest Missile spamming is very annoying for any player and the reason being that people moan is because they find it hard to dodge what 5-6 missiles coming at them wouldn't you hate that when you can't dodge 5-6 missiles coming at you every time they fire at you?

Well not exactly ! i have seen players blow all the missiles i throw which is usually around 4 but if it doesent work then 8 at max but they somehow still doge it or destroyes it with CD i have no idea how they do it ! even if we have a fight he will win aroung 80 % of the time . so it is aboun the skill not the missiles u shood be worried about ! and if u see all the replies in this topic than u will get a general idea that most of the people has no problem with this.So my answer will have to be no  :D

Without giving too much away, not that there is much to give away. I deliberately dont have my missiles set on "automatic" as I am a tight old buzzard and hate paying out for expensive ordinance - but thats the only way I get to kill stuff.  I have my missiles set on my space bar. I have my torps (when I can be bothered to use them) on my TAB key (my little finger on the left hand is my torp launcher)  - CD's and CM's are set to automatic.  One slight problem with this - and you will love this one - is the timing - you have to get it right. One thing I discovered was that if you fire your missiles at the same time as pausing to refire your guns - you release a CM that attracts your OWN MISSILES and can even cause you damage, if not death.....! (doh)

Having a Discoverer with Missiles take skill to take down players - the idea being that no matter how many CM's they spam back at you - the risk & the timing is that something will get through - either 2 x CD's or at least a couple of rockets - maybe, if your lucky the old - Final Torpedoe will do the trick.  Its not as easy as it sounds as you are very vulnerable to players who have developed a strategy, like Red's, for getting round that precise problem.

Sure, "spamming" of any kind can be a bit annoying  - however, its NOT against the RULES and if I catch anyone making up rules & telling other players that its against the rules I will have them banned... (You know who you are!)
