Give Ebon Hawk better turrets?

[Eddo36]

Well, at least the Millenium Falcon has two quad-automatic cannons. The Ebon Hawk has a single dinky dual turret that isn't even automatic.

 

Starship Blaster, often slung in turret mounts to take advantage of light weight and quick targeting motions. Installed on many starships including the Millennium Falcon.

 

The Ebon Hawk needs a Surface Defense Cannon as well (like the one the Millenium Falcon used against the assaulting snowtroopers on Hoth) so no one else would be dumb enough to put another tracking device on Revan's ship.

 

BlasTech Ax-108 "Ground Buzzer" blaster cannon. Designed to drop from a concealed gun pod on a starship. Targets using proximity motion sensors. Has 360 degree firing arc.

 

And please don't show the Ebon Hawk get hit each time a space battle initiates, it just pains me to see it get hit while I can't do anything about it lol. Maybe give it better radars too.

 

 

Just some reference from Star Wars CCG:

[stoo]

your idea surely would give some more meaning to those pesky and disturbing 'gun turret' mini-games. i found those quite annoying, and anti-climax as well.

I believe the developers have stated they're trying to implement this kind of thing, even referring to the gun that pops out underneath the Falcon to dispatch the snowtroopers.

[steelfiredragon]

aye, they said they would add a anti personell drup down turret like the milium falcon's heavy blaster .......

 

 

I still the the hawk in underarmed even with it.

 

and the anti-fighter turret needed an upgrade

i think it did have 2 but you only can use one at a time any way.

[thepixiesrock]

It's been said before and already said to have been implemented.

[Eddo36]

That's good, maybe say that Revan and the crew of the Ebon Hawk of the original KOTOR upgraded it a lot over the 5 years or so between KOTOR 1 and KOTOR 2, and gave it a Surface Defense Cannon as well after finding out about that tracking device planted on it in the previous game.

 

What other upgrades should there be?

• Better Turret
  
• Surface Defense Cannon
  
• Better Radar?
  
• Better hull armor/Shielding?
  
• Better hyperdrive engine?
  
• Faster cruise engine?
  

What other to add or remove from list?

[oherror]

that be cool, although its a tad late for it to go into tsl. maybe it could go into kotor 3 if there is going to be another.

[waiveddreams]

I want turrets for everybody in the party!

And you use force to pilot ship while shooting? :D :D :D

thats been done in the courtship of princess leia, luke piloted the falcon while using its canons at the same time

 

 

and the hawk is already the fastest ship in the outer rims, at the time i'd say a3.5 past lightspead... although it never did say hor fast it was in hyperspave or space....... no matter, weapons, hull and sheild upgradwes would be the best to upgrade

[Eddo36]

This rectanna would make a nice addition to the Ebon Hawk too, so that it won't get hit in surprise each time a battle starts.

 

Fabritech communications and sensor array. Features active/passive scanners, powerful jamming system, ship-to-ship tramsmitters and short-range target acquisition program.

 

 

And what about damagable ship parts? Some parts gets damaged and unusable in battle and you'll have to repair it when you land.

[steelfiredragon]

now its just getting dumb

[Adria Teksuni]

Uh...I'd really rather them work on storyline and character development, but that's just me.

[Nightvol]

ia hate this topic, is pointless and should be closed - only one thing to say so people won't say i'm spamming : why do you need beter shields ? the turret mini-game is easy as it is and i don't think they are gonna put more ships to fight with in a round or make them hit hard - those punks could not last more than a minute so no point in that

[Daaave]

Same here.

[EnderAndrew]

The Ebon Hawk is 4,000 years older than the Millenium Falcon, and the Falcon's cannon comes from a Capitol ship. The original Han Solo trilogy covers that story.
