    I'm thinking whether we should increase the speed limits for the ships slightly, around 0.1~0.05? Because after the new update, turbos can be further evolved to give better performance, yet the current speed limits for most ships now can be achieved by only a t4 epic turbo with good perks and good crew talents. Therefore, further development of a turbo seems meaningless for higher level players now, shouldn't we give a little more space for the better turbos to show their true power?^_^ @Miika

    it should be increased by a little because i faced a hacker today he was using a speed hack and we took him out easily so not much speed just increase it by 30 percent

    Conceptually I have nothing against it. The main issue is that the higher the maximum speed is the worst issues players are going to have with network lag, because they can move so much in the time it takes packets to travel over the internet.

    While, my opinion is that if the lag is due to the bad internet connection players have, then it is not the game's issue. And if it's a systematic lag, then we should try to minimize it. Lags should not be an obstacle of slightly increasing the speed limits^_^. @Miika

    Limiting the maximum speeds to ranges which mobile networks can hande is one of our ways to minimize the effects of lag.

    This can give speeder a bit more benefit, don't you think speeder already too fast and furious. If you want to give all ships little more speed it's okay, but you need to give turret speed up as well to be fair.
    Top 10 players 7/10 of them using speeder don't you think what's going to happen if they having more speed.

    True! I didn't think this way before. Yes, more speed limits should be accompanied by better turret agility.

    And by better ship agility too. If turrets turn faster, shouldn't ships aswell?

    all ships should move faster so the ratio stays the same so speeders dont get an advantage or disadvantage we just want it because maps are really big and ships are very slow

    Limit lag and AFKs by setting a minimum required ping speed, or I suppose it would be more correct to say a maximum allowed ping time. Anyone over the limit would get a pop up message to relocate to an area with better internet.

    I don't think it's necessary.
