Eagle!

All three work fantastically against AI, but PvP the 'Eagle has way too much manueverability. I loved my Sabre, until I came up against another player in an Eagle. No matter how hard I tried he'd get shots on me every 10-20 seconds, I was lucky to get 1 on him every minute. After that dogfight I went quickly to trade in my Sabre for the Eagle.

Well i've tried all three ships but indeed the Eagle was the most fun. Since you didn't really need to concentrate that hard to kill everything. In the Titan you need to keep an eye on your aft, use reverse thrusters to turn quicker, make sure that you hit when you get the chance etc.
In the Eagle, you just fly about chasing and dodging...leading a much simpler life.
Sabre is kinda in the middle...

By now I've seen about 50 discussions over what's the best ship.. So I'm not even gonna say anything about that but there's on thing I find to bad: Why is that eagle so ugly? I mean, it's even got a big hole on both sides. It's just like some of the plating is missing or shot off. I wish I just had a Sabre that flew like an eagle.

Yeah, that's the only problem with the Sabre, the two panels that the engineers forgot to put on...you can see all the electrics from the outside...imagine what a sunslayer torpedo would do if it hit there!

Or it starts to rain (like it does all the time on some planets) and everything just shortcircuits, and you electricute yourself just touching the ship (I'm not sure about the spelling here, sorry)

Yea. When I went to the equipment dealer for the first time after I bought the ship I thought somebody stole the access panels off my ship! I almost went back to the ship dealer and demand a refund!

The Eagle may be the best VHF in the game depending on how you see it, but it is certainly the ugliest out of the lot!

Well, I do agree that the Sabre is a sweet ride, especially for impressing Space Chicks, but on the whole I'd rather be in an Eagle when the going gets tough and Space Chicks are far from the mind!

The Sabre has the best firepower, with the forward firing turret.


The Eagle rules though, it looks cool (only the Hawk looks cooler) and it turns well.

Valkyrie...after getting all the ships, eventually i like flying a ship that looks cool. This ships has green engine trails and can match the Stealthblades' colours as well!

All I want now is the stealthing/cloaking ability! They did it in the sp, so why not in mp? hmph...
