Yes this is a monster carrier, but it is no worse than some of the ships and weapons being fielded by the ICC and K'luth...
Most of the K'luth dreadnoughts carry fighters, and the ICC have carrier cruisers as well as Command carriers, overall I'd say it works out just fine.
Oh hy let's not forget the new K'luth cloak  its ebil. As well as that stellar incinerator which not only can wipe out an engi in a single shot but it looks FREAKIN AWESOME.

The new carriers primary purpose will most likely be Bombing..Seeing how the Fighters are revamped..I like it. But it could be used to help other bombers by using Interceptors, to get rid of Missles and other fighters...

er... our combat dread has 3 fighters. our MD has 3 also i think. our carriers carry FOUR. so our carrier has 1 more fighter then a combat ship... which technically doesnt make it a carrier if u ask me. trading 6 torpedoes for one fighter is sorta silly. unless of course theyve been modified in beta

It wont have interceptors no.
Savage click here to enter beta, the client is in DownLoads and is about the same size as DarkSpace Release.
If your too lazy heres the direct download link here.
Remember to read the rules on the beta website before entering the game, it is VERY important you do so if you dont want to have your stats wiped over there. You also need to post in the Official Prestige Request thread to get your prestige carried over. Its in the list of Latest Topics. Also, you will not get a bump in your prestige, asking for it will get you no where.
There

Note: I'm talking about beta. Everyone knows how it is now after all.
Actually, the CC has 6 now. And it's got way more respectable weaponry than our carrier. Unf unf.
Besides, Uggies have always been the fighter faction, just like Kluth are beamers, and ICC have the best Missile boats. Makes sense to me.

For now, all ships come stock with the Assault class fighters... Once the full fighter code is in the game, then the stock ships will come with varried default fighters...
IE, Stations might have half and half assault and interceptor fighter mixes.
Carrier dread might have 4 assault, 2 interceptors, 2 bombers...
Not definate numbers, but basicly the stock ships will come out multipurpose and if you want to specialize then you will need to mod it. So beware of smashing "N" as you might try launching interceptors against a dread...

same, you could just fly around peppering a dread from beyond CL range without ever getting hit, the AI fighters basicly just kamikaze, so unlike real fighter pilots...

I think all old classes are becoming new roles..
Our B-27 is now a Bomber Fighter (makes sense with the name)..
So I dont know what the M and Larvae fighters are now..
