1) Remove t2 missile penalties

2) Missile trails for the different damage types are too simlar

3) Explosions of the different missile classes are too similar. Bring back the massive shockwave of torps, just modified a little.

1) Yes, they've fixed most of the turrets' ammo so far. Mostly anyway... Missiles seriously need some damn love.

2) No. Why would the missile's warhead have any effect on the trail it leaves behind?

3) Negative to this one, too. I like the new explosions, except the kinetic ones, which look more like a smoke grenade going off. That huge torp shockwave should've been gone a loooong time ago.

1. Yep:
- As long as that only means removing the sig radius bloom from furies and not the larger explosion radius.
- Precisions are far too heavily penalized. Up their damage a bit, and remove the speed penalty. Right now their DPS is so pathetic they offer virtually no benefit over navy ammo.
- Javelins also need that speed penalty gone. The huge DPS loss is more than enough of a penalty.

Ok seriously, is it just me, or does it look a lot like tech 2 missiles took a huge pre-nerf that never really got reverted?

2. Nice but meh, it's a pretty insignificant cosmetic change.
3. I think the explosions look fine, frankly, though the torp explosions are a bit unimpressive.

And I'd like to add:

4. Increase cruise missile damage slightly
5. Increase torpedo explosion velocity
6. Increase flight speed, cut flight time

t2 missile penalties need to be removed. It's an outdated dinosaur and now they're going to let TD's affect missiles? Roll Sounds about as intelligent as removing drone poo from the drone regions and not adding some sort of faction loot for players to run DEDs as compensation.
