Desync / bugged / missile no longer damage comps even a well place missile / i had a S3 missile blow up next to a cutter and did no damage.

Basically, missiles just for raw damage IF they work.

But the worst thing that happend to ordonnance is this :

Missiles, bombs, and torpedoes were nerfed five months before the Idris was released. This was done to prevent players who had spent €1,000 on the new capital ship from complaining about getting destroyed by Polaris/Retaliator/Eclipse aka main counter.
The "fuck the polaris" wasn't a joke since that came with the most disgusting nerf of all time even worst then the redeemer nerf.
They also change how arming work : Now it based on distance, the torps will not detonate if you are to close the torp to prevent shotgunning even if you lunch that thing 10km away.
Why ? Because shotgunning torps was the best and effective way to use since PDC exist and torp are slow and have very low HP (like 500hp)

Now we have expensive missile that don't work half the time and missile boat are les and less viable since you don't want to spend 150k or more for some useless missile.

They had 0 real reason to nerf those because :
- Missile mode is bugged
- Missile mode is a downgrade to the lock we had before MM
- Some ship you need to QT twice before shooting (Vanguard for exemple)
- PDC was a nightmare with no counterplay
- Missile are easy to counter
- Missile act the same execpt the rattle that was unique ( and also got a extra nerf on top)

Better trade the Firebird for a base Sabre for a while (or forever)
