Titan or Sabre?

If you are stuck in a mission and do not know how to continue, this is the place to ask for help. Missing that elusive Level 10 Shield? Don''t know where to find the lost Ohtori ship? This is the only place where spoilers are allowed!

Titan or Sabre?

Which ship do you think is better, the Titan or the Sabre? It seems to me that the sabre is more manuverable but it could just be my own imagination.

I'm going to get a Sabre as soon as I can afford it. Titan looks way ugly, if you ask me.

I have an eagle... it looks cooler than both sabre & titan (although it is also the weakest very heavy fighter... and cheapest... and no need to bribe those criminals)

I must say I was pretty happy with VHF Falcon !!

I got friendly with Corsairsa and now I have a Titan, is soo slow, it sucks !!

But great Homing missiles L9 and shield L10 with Corsairs ...

Now is a good time for going hunting .... what was again this diamond route of
yours or whatever super-duper trade route ?

Go Titan!

It's the most expensive ship. You show 'em you have all the money it takes!

It's also much nicer to own a ship manufactured and used exclusively by the noble Corsairs than the one shared by ze German terrorists and those drug-addicted, mutated Outcasts! Ok, so the Corsairs had to eat their own people during a food crisis, but that's history.

it depends on your preference really, titan is highest on defence and sabre is highest on attacks so it really boils down to your preference

Tried the Titan, it's like flying a brick.. The Sabre is much better but I coudn't find a 600m/s turret so I bought an Eagle instead which is even more manouverable than the Sabre. So I say go for the Eagle..

I have done extensive research, and I must pick the one in the middle (best combination of both) titan... how do I put this, titan looks like a pigeon that ran into a tree. Eagle is the coolest looking, but no forward turret, titan is just not even in the competition slow manuver, no forward turret, sure it's got 2000 more armor, but that's nothing, it's all about manuverability in dogfights, if you're not manuverable someone can do 2000 damage in half a shot. But the eagle isn't THAT much more manuverable than the sabre. (unofficial test: 80m/s while rotationg 360, results shown: eagle-4 secs, sabre-5secs, titan-6sec) they are approximate eagle was actually more like 4.3-4.4. Sabre is all around the best fighter, if it was up to me, I'd pick the sabre any day.

btw, when did the eagle come into this argument? the topic is titan or sabre.
