    Anyone else getting annoyed by the fact that having a speeder on your team, you're most likely to lose?

    You're not, if the speeder is good they can be very valuable to the team.

    Owh really? Idk. But it might happen since speeder's health is very low compared to other ship so probably yes

    The leaderboards say otherwise as many of the top players are speeders. Yes the lower hp can be an issue sometimes but if your good your speed makes you very hard to hit.

    I'm probably just playing with a bunch of a-hole newbie speeders thinking they can outrun everything which negatively affect his team (getting picked off easily, doesn't work with the group). It's really irritating.

    I wasn't. Always play with the team. You're probably one of them

    Now everyone just calm down, no need for a flame war. Speeders are a tricky boat to play and it can be disastrous while trying to learn. Just try to bare with them and as infamy levels increase you will start to play with the ones that have a good handle on things.

    I hear your point, but I kinda disagree... a speeder has outstanding potential in the right hands, and if you google up "blacktail battle bay" and watch one of P0rthos' vids (btw great vids man) then you would probably understand. But yeah, playing with those noobs speeder who don't even help their team can be very fustrating... But after you get to ace tier, the speeders are really powerful and can knock other players (apart from others speeders) right out of the park, due to the fact that noobs who do not lead their shots CANNOT hit them. But just play the game and get to ace tier and you will not be as frustrated. ;)

    I disagree because if you have a good speeder that knows how to evade attacks and distract the enemy then it's game over. If you see your speeder doing circles around your enemy it's probably best if you help out while their turrets are turned. Also very good for going in to kill an enemy who is hiding in a tight spot with low health.

    "People who don't play with the same ships as i do make me lose! I'm not taking off my sandpaper panties until everyone plays exactly the way i think they should."

    I'll sure you've never had a bad game...

    Speeders are actually the strongest in the game imo.

    I often win when there's a speeder on my team. They are not useless.

    I'm mk4 speeder and my teams often win, not soly because of me but because of the team and help from my hard hitting sniper cannons! While I'm risking my life( all it takes is one wrong move and we speeders are dead) drawing enemy fire how about u get in there and get off some free shots before I retreat back to the healer

    i think speeder is good to break enemy concentration, speeder move at first. Meanwhile, the rest is aiming enemy. 80% enemy player will aiming that speeder and of course u must be have great skill of dodging. If u are good at speeder, u can shot while dodging :). Only my opinion :D

    At lower level it is. But trust me having a MK4+ Speeder on your team gives you a much better winning chance.
    Like last match 1 MK4 Speeder had 10 HP ish he ran away, he had Bandage. My other shooter buddy got cocky and went other way, then that Speeder came out of no where with full HP and sunken us both, 2; 70%HP+ MK3 Shooter. My MK3 Shooter has 2.5k HP .

    4 out of the top 5 in the world (last Nightmare League) are speeders, so thats not always the case :D But sure, like already mentioned, it's a tricky ship to play and can take some time to master.
