why am i so powerful?

i finished the storyline, got myself a titan, sold it and got an eagle, blew up some nomads, and went back to liberty space. Once there i destroyed well over 100 fighters in a matter of minutes before i got bored. Why, is the border worlds tech SO MUCH better than libertys? i thought liberty was supposed to be the most powerful but here i was and i could have wiped out the entire liberty empire by myself. DUMB

For one the border worlds are harder to get to...(radiation and such)
And two all Liberty ships are public issues as in any little person can buy one but being able to sell ships like the eagle in Liberty would be like a Ford dealer selling M1A1 Abrams Tanks to the public. Hope that made sense.

Oh yeah! And you probably aren't that powerful try a MP server and dogfight some of the higher level people on there. And tell me how powerful you are after that...

ok, but why are there as many bordr world ships as liberty? wouldnt the border worl have wiped them out because thr so much better. besides liberty should still have decent ships regardless. the navy should have them rather than having vessels FAR weaker than average civilian designs

yeah i am very good. and why is the AI so bad. I can destroy dozens of titans or eagles or whatever in a humble starflier. You just dodge the first volley (which is easy in a small ship) and then blast the bums from behind. Easy. Thats why maneuvreability is so important and the titan so dumb

That would be logical for the Border Worlds to take over..yes. But that isnt how the story line goes so. Go Figure!

look around in systems,

1. if u r friendly with cops, u see them at some points, if u r hostile with them and stay to long at 1 point, look how much there can be of them...

2. try the same with crims/pirates

3. dont's try the first 1 in rheinland, the economie is highrise, but the amry and cops r poor deu to 80-years of war, some didn't payed already for 4 monds or more.

Liberty ships are lower-level so you'll have an easier time early on in SP. Unfortunately, they never balanced that out for MP, or even after the storyline.

Reaper: $200,000,000.
Rockets: $100,000
The look on that pilot's face when you launch a full pod of screamers up his tailpipe: priceless

The Patriots at the satellite near Zone 21 were quite crunchy, though. And let's not forget Juni's version of the Defender ...

exactly and remember the liberty battle ships and crusers they have almost as meany of them as the pirates have fighters. and that big gun and the cruser is devistating don't fly infront of it when you just obtain the artifact in the sp story if you have battleship enconters on
