As a person who has predominately flown throughout my tenure in goi, I would argue that blenderfish in particular, are not challenging to fly.
I'm sorry that I like flying a ship that actually feels like a ship and not a flying brick.
Though do continue, this thread is hilarious, I'm ill lately and could use an enjoyable discussion on the internet about how a weapon that was much better in 1.2 is now suddenly OP despite the horrendous nerf on its reloading time. I wonder how OP was the 60 bullet heavy clip Gatling considered to be.
I find it especially funny that people bring up the 'Skill to use' argument, because flying any ship in this game is especially hard right? Considering all you do is either stay still or charge an enemy in most cases. Pitiful argument, even more pitiful coming from members of this community.
Flying a Blenderfish (Or BlenderSquid) is one of the few options this game has for a free-flowing flight so you don't have to stay still in one spot or you won't be hitting anything. Some people find it boring? Fine, fly something else then and enjoy your sky bricks, I'll be busy flying a ship.
And I will stress it again and again, the carronade is not a problem, it's a gun that works as intended, what DOESN'T work as intended are the crappy tutorials that teach you nothing about guns, only how to get on them and shoot.
