I've played Freelancer
And ther is a different tactic in that ->
Wing of bombers approach while fighters distract unwanted battleship fighter wing escort (and by distract I mean really put on a fight
of course all hell breaks loose than we should "try to" -> shield busters and EMP cannons barrage- > "try to" launch antimatter topedoes-> If You succeed well : goodbye battleship !
Otherwise You're just a space garbage along with Your team
It is harder to get battleship out of combat in Freelancer
(and You need a good team to actually do that ) If You approach in a single fighter ship against a battleship .... well the odds are just against You
My bet is : 2 shots -> dead
(if You're a bad pilot) and 3 shots (if You are a good pilot - but You are dead nonetheless
) Isn't it great ^^
Of course I mean Discovery mod multiplayer
Vanilla SP is easy
