So how does reverse work on ships?

    I understand that every ship (besides enforcer) can't reverse at full speed? But how does it work? Do you have to reverse for a while before you pick up speed? Reverse, stop, reverse again? How do you reverse effectively? Thanks

    Oh this I did not know.
    Enforcers can reverse at full speed but other ships can't?
    I always thought I was slow reversing because I was going up waves usually.
    I remember being really shocked when I played speeder and tried to reverse nitro but got shot forward instead haha

    I'm pretty sure Enforcer only has greater acceleration on reverse, not greater speed. I'm pretty sure I've seen other ships move pretty fast if they just kept reversing. They don't actually have a slower backward speed than Enforcer, do they?

    Ships don't have specific maximum reverse speed, only worse acceleration backwards. And if you don't have the acceleration force, it doesn't pick up speed either. On the down wave you can reverse as fast as you go forward but it's more tricky.
