    Why can't people just make nice ships that are balanced by design? Why does everything seemingly have to be forced on them?

    I get the point of this ship, its a statement on the situation of Titans, specifically Titan style weapon systems.

    BTW, I have thought of a few ways to hyper optimize all ship combat that involves massive ships, but still, people, balance your shit.

    Nah.
    Me and mik were having a joke argument,i said americans were trigger happy in killing Bin Laden and that he could have vital info.
    So i just built a huge gun while screaming about america.
    Sometimes a gun is just a gun.

    I like to think of America as having changes from having the biggest gun to having the fastest gun.

    That said, ANY ship called the 'AMERICA' must by all means be a Titan. If you name it after a state though, it can be smaller.

    I'll make a new titan; larger than any other made ever.

    But how can we win all the time if we balance our stuff?

    Why is it about winning at all costs?

    If it is about winning at all costs, then why use such an open sandbox? The very nature of Garrysmod allows one to be creative to an extreme level. To make all the ships 'super win' just defeats the point. You should be coming up with systems with both strengths and weaknesses. Yes, a sandbox this free lets you make a ship with all advantages, but that is just gay. Does it really feel good to just be another asshole with a nearly unkillable ship with every advantage and no weakness of any kind?

    Hell, when I make ship systems, I try to make each unique and different. Right now most people just make a massive ship, load it with all the weapons they can hold, slap in some generic chips they either got from someone else or only made for the point of making them 'more win' than the other guy's, and then sit or fly around.

    Where is the fun? Where is the invention and innovation?

    Making a Titan is like starting one of those games with skills and skill-points and using a cheat-code to give yourself infinite skill-points at the start! The victories are empty, and for the people fighting against you, only if they win do they feel anything. The game should be fun for winners AND losers. Garrysmod is NOT about the win. Garrysmod is about the invention and the journey.

    Do you have to constantly feel like you're superior to everyone around you? Every time you reply to someone, you make some long drawn out paragraph just so that you can think of yourself as smarter than the person you're replying to. It's really annoying and I'm sure others probably want to say it too, but for some reason or other don't, so I'm just going to say it now.

    Successful troll thread is successful.

    Now this has gone far enough, time to close it down.
