~ Why the Valkyrie sucks / is amazing Explained in 90 Seconds ~

Fortunately it's also rather cheap for both.

They should give crew resistance to flak only, so snipers still can have fun...

I can definitely stay alive 2 more minutes in Lib than I can in valk, so Its not really "cheaper" in terms of the value you get out of it.

Knowing SOE and the C4-to-aircraft nerfs, they'll translate that to mean "whenever aircraft are destroyed all people within the vehicle should auto-eject and land safely, and valk passengers should take 99% reduced damage from bullets. That way, snipers can still have their fun by seeing a hitmarker and having the gratification of knowing they slightly damaged a player's shields."

Valk is my baby step into flying larger aircraft. It just works, I can actually land it, take off with it and not crash it like an ESF or one of the bigger birds. It's transport, it's tracking, it's fun... beyond that I could care less what role it fills, like any class or weapon it's up to me to decide which fits the battle engagement. Bottom line: It's fun, a change from ground play and I enjoy it. That is reason enough.
