While I see what you mean about four Hornets being able to defeat one fully manned Constellation, that seems like it would make it a kind of stupid decision for four people to decide to man one ship. I mean, in real life, there would be a gigantic monetary reason for something like that. (Assuming that the Constellation would cost significantly less than four smaller ships.) But in a game where basically everyone will own their own ship, it raises the question, "Why would four people ever fly together?"

Flying with your friends is more about helping out someone in need, or in the case of something like the Constellation if you have 3 sets of player eyes and hands (short range fighter, turret with 360 degree field of fire) you will operate at peak efficiency. You can do well with one player - but if you want to beat say 3-4 enemy fighters , having real players vs AI will be a big leg up
