>>

But the of racify
>>
>>160943695
I wish we knew the real value of LTI.
>>
Would it be worth picking up the 325A?
>>
>>160943876
It's a mild convenience
>>
>>160943876
Exponentially proportional to the size of the ship.
>>
>>160943876
Only good for expensive ships
As if some Avenger insurance is going to be prohibitive when there will be players without LTI, game would fucking suck
>>
>>160943935
Yes but get a LTI 85X and CCU it to the 325a
>>
>>160943952
I know what the theoretical value is.
I would love to *know* what that would mean in terms of UEC in game per 3monthly installment or whatever though.
>>
>>160943695
M50 and 350r are sanic as heck, though.
>>
>>160943876
Wait till they increase the aUEC to an unreasonable point where you dont want to pay for it to respawn. Or make it so once your insurance runs out you have to wait 24 hours or so to respawn your ship.
>>
>>160944130
Exactly, could happen.
Am I right in thinking you will never be able to buy LTI in-game for UEC?

i would think once your insurance runs out you will be out of luck and if your ship is destroyed while under insuriance, you will have to wait to get it back
>>
>>160944229
I doubt they'll make that an option inside the game to buy LTI
>>160944062 I think I might just do that.

>>160944229
Not for existing ships, unless they will change their mind. As for future possible new ship concepts ? Who knows.

What do people think about CCU-ing an LTI 85x to Titan (regular) for the LTI on it.
I can see LTI on a Titan being worth it, because it is the sort of ship that makes you want to bite off more than you can chew, so might benefit from not paying through the nose on insurance claims.
>>
>>160944390
Yeah, I could see your shit out of luck if you buy ships using the in game money. You'll become SOL when it blows up with no Insurance, but for those who actually paid money for their ships wouldn't be SOL.

If anybody remembers playing Mechwarrior when it was during alpha where you had to pay for everything such as Repairs. Rebuying weapons, reloading, and well in SC you'd also pay for fuel. I'd kinda hope it'd go into that kinda state to where if you didn't have the UEC to fix your ship completely you'd be flying a junker till you earned enough UEC to repair it.
>>
>>160944658
Were you worried about repair costs in RPG games?
Just bear in mind they won't want new players to be put off by LTI being some overwhelming advantage
>>
>>160944658
There's no logical reason not to get LTI if you can for same price.
>>
Assuming there's a black friday sale or something coming up:

A million years ago, I pledged for an LTI freelancer, along with all of the cool goodies they promised back then do you think they'll actually ship a spaceship shaped USB stick that you can install the game to?, for the title and because I bought it for the promise of a Freelancer 2.

I've flown around in it and my 325, and kinda enjoyed it, but don't look particularly forward to having a space truck as my primary ship, so I'm wondering if I can replace it, keep all the goodies I pledged for way back, and instead get some VHF type ship preferably something like the Anubis (the order VHF)
>>
>>160944815
Isn't it always more via the 85x?
Ship upgrade screen shows the ship as worth less than the pledge cost to me. Probably still worth it though maybe.
>>
>max size: fixed size 1

did they nerf the avengers wing guns?
>>
>>160944946
85x and titan are 50$ ships, I picked up a load of CCUs between them yesterday.
>>
>>160944859
If you want to keep all your vintage shit I'm pretty sure you have to upgrade it (even to something the same price)
>>
>>160944946
They're both $50, and upgrade from x85 to Titan is $0, at least that's what it shows for me.
>>
>>160944558
I own a Dragonfly, Gladius Valiant, Cutlass Black. I really want a Mustang Delta but I doubt they'll be doing a sale for those this week.
>>
>>160944859
Simply buy an upgrade from your current ship to a higher priced one, everything in your package stays the same, except for ship.

You could Cross Chassis Upgrade the Freelancer to an F7C Hornet for free, which is a civilian version of a military dogfighter. You missed the sale of the more nimble pirate/civilian fighter Buccaneer or the upgraded F7C-M Super Hornet. However, if you don't mind spending an extra 65 bucks you could get an Aegis Sabre as an advanced nimble dogfighter when it goes on sale in two days.
>>
>>160945234
I thought Cig has done sales where they reduced prices by 20% on some ships. I remember the Hornet Sale. They also did a sale on reducing the starter packages cost as well.
>>
>>160945234

They had discounted starter packages at one point, but if I remember right. All the whales bought them up so they could have more character slots or some other stupid reason.

That looks absurdly broken and probably is since the base game and Horizons are launched through the same app in your library now.
http://steamcharts.com/app/359320 this is more accurate, although there are some people who don't have it linked to their steam account but they're such a low number of people its not much of a difference, give or take 100 players or so.

So what's the point of the Avenger variant? Even the Titan comes with S2 wing guns, so they could have at least strapped S2 Tarantulas or whatever to it.

how the hell do I succeed in conflict zones?
The most expensive combat ship I have access to is a vulture, but that's not usable because when ships randomly decided to spawn on me I have no way of escaping. Meanwhile, medium weapons just tickle these military ships. Is it just impossible without a large ship?

>>160951353
You're fighting alongside a small army so fight like it. Find a Heavy/Superheavy Hull ship on your side like a Python, Anaconda, or the Faction specific Anaconda equivalents and stay by their side. Defend them or attack what they attack, if an enemy ship flees fast enough it would draw you away from your big buddy DO NOT chase it unless you can finish it quickly.
Also
>Medium Hardpoints
A Vulture has 2 Large Hardpoints, unless that was just a wording error on your part. I would hope you don't have 2 Mediums on Larges.
>>
>>160953524
I'm not using a vulture, it's instant death in those areas because when npc enemies randomly spawn half of them target me and I have no chance of escaping. I'm in a courier
>>
>>160953750
If you stick to your allies eventually its always a 2:1 in your favor because you all gang up on every ship that warps in.
Don't pick a faction when you first enter the zone either, that WILL get you gangbanged immediately. Wait for all of the inital spawns and let them aggro on each other before entering the fray. Conflict Zones is one of my main ways of making big bucks and is very efficient when you get your tactics down for it.

Yes I can trust to have some turrets, because I know 100% those will always be hitting the target when its in their field of fire. Where with anything below Dangerous rank I can't 100% trust to maneuver well.
>>
>>160956962
I'm also not the one saying I'm opposed to having an NPC fly your ship while you direct other systems, it would just cost me a good bit to have an NPC good enough to do so reliably OR I'll have another player I can trust to do it.

I bought the dragonfly 2 pack if I upgrade one of them to a different ship will the new ship still have LTI as well?

Wow that's fun and engaging gameplay right there.

>Where with anything below Dangerous rank I can't 100% trust to maneuver well.

Yes this matters when 100% of your gameplay revolves around pointing your nose at a target. In a sane universe with a large ship, you'd have more interesting forms of gameplay available to you.

>>160957272
The pack has whatever insurance you bought it with, ship upgrades don't change that.
So yes.

Let's say you get in the game, and own an M50, 300i, Avenger, Hornet, Gladius, Cutlass, Orion and Retaliator.

Let's say you didn't cave in to this paywall cash shop faggotry.

Let's say, each ship costs 10,000 UEC per week to pay for landing fees.

Let's say you get bored of the game and decide to take the week off over Christmas.

Let's say you log out while you only have 50,000 UEC in your account.

You come back, and didn't have enough money to pay the station to house your ships, so they literally took them away? What happens? Are people going to be limited to 1 or 2 ships in the PU since they will all require landing fees, hull insurance and weapon insurance?

Insurance really is a scam, in-game and real life.

>>160958335
Not paying insurance just means anything blown up is lost forever, if it runs out your ship doesn't disappear or anything.
Fuck knows when it comes to hangar fees though, the free hangar perk seems like a way bigger deal than LTI.

>>160958450
Nah nigger city worlds are old style landing zones only. Unless that's just a smallish city area.
You can't just fly wherever in Coruscant 2.0 because how the fuck would they make an entire planet to that detail.
>>

theyre still going to need to be large enough to host a server worth of people trying to land unless they incorporate an instanced hangar in another dimension

A) Renegade, Comet, Mustang/Aurora starter ($40 out of pocket)
B) 85x meme to regular Titan, Keep Stalker, Comet ($45 out of pocket)
C) Renegade, Comet, Stalker ($75 out of pocket)
I like the hardpoint swap on the Renegade. I need to figure out if they're before or after the wing blow off line. I also don't forsee the prisoner cells on the stalker being of any use for a long time.

2.6 no earlier than early December (12/8 estimated)

I guess A but what the hell are you doing man
>>
>>160962469
The comet, I bought because I actually like the paintjob, and you can't get a normal Sabre anyway.

The Titan, I think the cargo will be more useful in the end, and if the Hardpoint swap means losing my wing guns less often, that'd be pretty great. The paintjob is shit though.
>>
>>160962886
>wtf why would you want two variants of the same ship?
Oh, and because if getting lti on an Avenger in any form means having 3 ships at this point, I may as well have that 3rd ship be more useful than a shitty Aurora MR/Mustang Alpha.
>>
>>160962161
Not really. All the feature plans are the same in the end, but to get all the features on ED you have to buy expansions.

The only reasons ED might be better than SC in the end is if A) You like ED's flight model better, and B) SC doesn't turn out to be mega-pay2win.

So... riddle me this.
If when the game goes beta, and we can buy ships in-game for UEC, and ship prices in UEC are approximately 3-10x what their "pre purchase" dollar value is, then if I sell a ship I've bought for real dollars in-game, i'm going to make a relative UEC profit?
>>
>>160966671
Everything is going back on sale on the last day (the last day of Prowler / 85X LTI sale).

>>160966390
I just looked at the upgrade system and you can either 85X -> F7C (I wouldn't recommend it) or Cutlass -> $160 ship (I don't know any off-hand).

Personally if I had $60 store credit, and your ships, I would save it until the last day of the sale and look at the upgrade system again, and try to narrow down what kind of ship I want for the money, i.e. a fighter or hauler or whatever.

>>160967070

Also, I would consider saving the store credit for future sales, and keep the 85X LTI for now. There will be more weapons in the future, and more ships.

Don't be in a rush to spend the credit unless you want a rare / sale ship. Consider the next sale might be at Christmas, PAX, or Citizencon / Anniversary 2017.
>>
>>160967057
No.
>>
>>160967057
Sounds about right. Also remember that insurance is tied to the hull, so people will be selling LTI ships at ridiculous mark ups to try and make massive amounts of UEC

>>160967334
>>160967405
Theoretically to me:

Super Hornet as example.

165$
165 000 UEC

Sold in-game (new from showroom, std insurance) at 3x
495 000 UEC

Sold 2nd-hand by players (std insurance) for less than 495 000 UEC
-otherwise people won't see a reason to buy it over showroom, unless limited availability

Sold 2nd hand by players but with LTI at more than 495 000 UEC
-mark up for LTI- end user "saves" insurance costs

They'd get a much larger playerbase if they abandoned the dads, made the game less of a grind, fixed the unbearable p2p instanced multiplayer, and added simple quality of life elements that make it so you don't need 3rd party sites to find basic information.
>>
>>160962161
Like someone already stated their plans for all included features are the same in the end, its gonna be a question of how FDev is gonna expect you to pay for it and personal preferences on universe, lore, designs, style, etc. More expansion costs might be the deal breaker for me whenever SC releases but as it stands right now my opinion is SC needs improvements to its flight model and by extension, combat.
>>
>>160970093
People give Roberts shit, but at least they're not forcing you to purchase multiple game packages to get all content, yet. Maybe FDev should have done something like this. I'm sure the dads would have loved to fund the game even further.
>>
>>160970027
I don't know if they'll abandon the dads with how much of a percentage they make up but I sure as hell hope they become less of a fucking influence. I just hope if they do they don't jump ship to SC.
Its less of a grind than it was last year with the increased variety and some combat types giving huge payouts, but it 100% still needs refining.
The p2p networking is imo the biggest thing plaguing the game right now. It and clogging which is a symptom of it is just drives people away when they learn these two things fucks over their chances of playing with others.
QoL elements is something that have come in slowly over its lifetime which it needs more of. Specifically I would love for the Galaxy Map to have more specific filter options and for their to be an actual categorized list for when you look at your visited systems. That way I wouldn't have to keep a fucking Spreadsheet to keep track of all of the high dollar systems and stellar bodies I've found.
>>160970435
True but it would've been a dicier situation. The Dads throw huge sums of money just for every cosmetic thats added right now and probably would pay out of pocket even more if you could get packages like SC offers. But that also may have drawn away the casual %, which makes up an even bigger number since E:D is on Xbone.
>>

>>160970680
>Dads throw huge sums of money just for every cosmetic that gets added

Yeah, but that isn't getting me a better game. Nor is that getting me next season's content.

A whale is a person that spends ludicrous sums of money. A whale and a dad are not the same thing. But they can be the same person.
>>
>>160970773
Dads don't necessarily have to spend large amounts of money. They just defend every terrible decision by Ftroop because MUH NOSTALGIA and MUH SIMULATION. But they cry to the developers whenever the exact same simulation is used by others to the dad's detriment.

Its funding. Whether its the Dad's giving or not its funding. FDev has very slowly been trying to peel away from those faggots and I wish they would just rip their mentality away from the design of the game immediately already. It would benefit the game's longevity and quality immensely.
>tfw The Commanders will probably be the least liked by Dads because it might spoil their immersion to actually have a meaningful way to interact with a player

>>160970832
>>160970941
do whales are good but dads are bad?
>>
>>160971301
Whales are less immediately harmful to the game. They spend large quantities of money, essentially funding the game. When a whale becomes a dad they are immensely harmful to the game unless you have someone who has fully embraced the spectrum, like Chris Roberts, to keep the vision on track.
>>
>>160971296
Like I said, that funding doesn't get me ED: Season 3. If I decided to start playing again, I would most likely have to drop another x amount of money to get their next gameplay expansion. I'm not okay with this.
>>
>>160971301
Whales are people who are blindly buying everything the game offers while NOT injecting their opinion in the game and bitching when changes don't suit them. They fund the game but don't fuck over the game.
Dads are people who are blindly buying everything the game offers while they ARE injecting their opinion in the game and bitching when changes don't suit them. They fund the game but ruin it at the same time.
So yes Dads are faggots while Whales, who aren't exactly the brightest of people to throw money at something so whimsically, don't hurt anything.

Hey Star Citizen fans, can you do me a favor?

Take a look at these images of procedurally generated planets and tell me which one was made by:

1) the 130 employee company with $140 million US dollars of funding, over the course of four years

2) the 58 year old Russian astronomer, over the course of six months, in his free time away from his 10-hour job

Only way you can fill out an entire galaxy is heavily varied procedural generation with realistic constraints so you don't get stellar bodies that can not possibly exist.

What's the easiest way to find Grim Hex?

I tried following some guide earlier, found some pirates near a big-ass asteroid around Yela - killed them, but the asteroid turned out to be just a plain hunk of rock.

Then the game crashed, leaving me back at square one - is there some easy way to do this shit?

Also, if you've been there once, do you get a jump point there, or do you have to go looking for it all over again?

the problem is that these space games are not common, and those of us who like our space games to be about fun gameplay and being an active agent in a huge world are shafted in favor of those who want to go from point A to point B over and over or shooting at rocks.

I want to upgrade one of my smaller ships into a base retaliator to soothe my aching heart.

The Retaliator costs $150
I have as follows(upgrade values):
Prospector: $140
Cutlass Black: $110
Buccaneer: $105
Freelancer: $110
Gladiator: $150

But I am attached to all these ships and cannot decide which to upgrade or melt to get a Retaliator. I don't own any ships that I don't want, I have many but I literally only buy things that I definitely want in terms of both aesthetics and gameplay.

What do?
>>
>>160994514
They're selling a Carrack-sized ship for 250$. It's honestly a pretty good deal. Plus, it's supposed to come out I think with 3.3.

>>160968656

>>160994263
Holy shit you guys must read nothing.

You can get the EXACT same insurance coverage as LTI in game for credits, Standard Hull Insurance, as in you ships gets fragged, you get a new ship as soon as one is available.
The only difference is that with LTI you dont have a to pay a periodic insurance fee and you never have to worry about it expiring, you ship will always be insured.

No one with a brain is going to lose their Non-lti ships becasue theyre gonna fly it with SHI coverage, SHI coverage apllies everywhere, just like LTI. The only way to permalose your hulls is if you fly them completely without insurance, in which case your are bloody retarded and deserve it.

>>160994546

This is exactly the benefit of LTI, it's simple peace of mind that the thing you paid for will never go away under any circumstances. YOu will still have to worry about >>160996497 but there's no way around that and rightly so. The point is that the cash you spent is very very secure.

>>160995580
I'm aware that its useless as a combat ship for now, which is why I turned my LTI bomber tally into a caterpillar. However its still my favorite ship so I kinda want to have one, hence getting a base instead and eventually kitting it out as a cargo runner or assault ship.
>>
>>160996951
Insurance gives you the hull you paid for in the pledge in the configuration you payed for in the pledge, Gladiator bobmer will always come fueled with 2 gimbaled m4a lasers 2 turret bulldogs, 8 S3 missiles and 4 S5 Missiles.

That is the whole point of the insurance.

It would be good for economic reasons as well. If there was a certain resource that was in surplus you could buy it and store it for when it is more in demand.

Yes, different planets and moons will have different gravity values, from 0g in space to several G static on some of the huge planets, they said that high G planets were going to be both a landing/flight complication and also effect mobility on the ground, meaning you'll be slower and you'll be able to jump significantly less.

>>160998406
yes, but again, for its cost and size it hits absurdly hard, like "Is fully capable of fucking up a constellation" hard. It's like the TIE interceptor of star citizen. He said he has a freelancer and 80 bucks, so it sound like he wants a combat ship complement, and the Mustang D is hand down the best combat ship below 80 bucks. the only other real contender is a Reliant Tana which is as much a NEETmobile as it is a fighter.

>>
>>161000451
No, the 325 is hot garbage, if you get a 300 series get the 315P its the only one that's actually good at its role. All the 325 has going for it is the gimmicky missile system, which you'll probably be able to install in other ships anyway. Also the 325A isn't limited, you can make that swap literally at any time.

If you don't like your Tana and want a fighter consider turning it into a a Gladius maybe, the "gladius a shit" thing is really overplayed. Basically the Gladius is inferior to the Sabre and Superhornet, which are heavier dedicated fighters, but its still a very solid fighter and will outfight a 325, Avenger or Mustang any day.

Also Tomorrow you'll probably be able to straight sidegrade from the Tana to a Mustang Delta which is an excellent little fighter.

So a disturbing thought just occured to me, the cutlass is growing in the rework, Is it still going to fit in the Polaris's hangar? It seemed like the natural choice for a boarding craft or general purpose "away team" ship, but if it gets much bigger than it is it likely wont fit.
>>
>>161005842

tell me how takeoff and landing go when your entry and exit clearances are measure in centimeters. Technically possible doesn't mean practically possible.

also the "make it a pocket carrier" meme needs to die, preferably along with the people who push it and all their hardware. Try to put a cutlass in your BMM, I honestly hope that when it clips, crashes and explodes its reactor goes and take out the jewmobile too.

>>
>>161006564
I'm just sick of people trying to make literally everything into a carrier, its becasue of the carrier obsession that we cannot seem to get anything dedicated to heavy-for-size gunnery. Every cap thus far has at least some of its space dedicated to carrying smaller ships and there is a not a single decent dedicated gunboat in the game.

You're BMM is already a general purpose craft capable of planetary landing, space combat, commerce and more. By sticking another ship into it you are not making it better, you are taking a good cargoship and making it into a shitty cargo ship that can puke out a single craft that unless it is a dedicated fighter, is not giving you any additional capability. There is nothing a Cutlass can do that the BMM cant already do much more effectively based soley on the fact that it is a bigger meaner generalist.

>>161006387
BMM guy along with legions of other people are obsessed with the whole pocket carrier thing because they have a fetish revolving around deployable fighters.

I >>161005842 am just trying to pick the ship that goes in my Polaris's hangar, the Polaris being able to launch and maintain a fighter by design, but rather than a fighter I want to carry an assault boat/boarding craft for a strike team.

This idea that people keep clinging to that you can just stick a fighter in the cargo hold and call it good is just autism though, you wont be able to repair, refuel or rearm, you 100% will eventually crash while trying to move a ship around inside a cargo hold and on top of that by stick a ship in the hold instead of cargo you vastly reduce the useful of the carrying ship. You're taking a good freighter and making it into a shitty carrier for the sake of having access to a fighter while also having a giant cargo space and livable interior. Like fucks sake if you really need both just get a constellation Taurus.

>being pissy about pocket carriers like Caterpillar and Polaris

The problem with pocket carriers stems from the simple problem that CIG doesn't make any good AA guns or Anti-Fighter ships (i.e. big enough guns to one-shot a Hornet or at least shoot AA barrages to disrupt flying). The consequences from that is that people will rely on snub fighters or ship-launched fighters to defend the bigger ship.

I'd rather have turret/AA modules on my Caterpillar, but since CIG won't let me, I'll fucking fill it to the brim with Dragonflies.

>>161008516

>he doesn't take prisoners in M&B

Right now the Kore has two major problems, one being that its flight model is calibrated completely wrong sometimes (it's a problem connected to its two flight modes), and the other being the wings fall off too easily. Both have been identified as issues that CIG are going to work out. The Tana is just a Kore with more DAKKA and a NEET cabin replacing most of the cargo
>>
>>161008003
Jav is almost the exception but it would be a much better ship if they replaced its hangar with a second giant gun turret. Like it has lots of small anti-fighter type guns, like s4 twin turrets and a pair of big anti ship guns.

What I want is a ship that is hard focused on gunnery, maybe it can launch something like an Argo, but the vast bulk of the ships power and volume is focused on direct firepower.

The polaris is going to suffer from something of a split personality I think. It has Torpedoes but its not stealthy, It has gun turrets but they're all small Anti-fighter types, It has a hangar but it can only launch a single craft realistically. It cannot decide what it is and I suspect while it will be very good for hunting pirate gangs, but will find itself vulnerable in actual equal terms combat. It's a coast guard cutter or navy LCS, a good security or patrol ship, but not up to snuff for open battle.

The Idris is a small carrier, its weapon load is actually very light for its size and the vast bulk of its volume is flight deck

>>161007896
>Dad
Stop using buzzwords to try to discredit someone who disagree with you. I am salty that the gunboat I want is less likely to happen because people have an obsession with putting small ships into big ships and as a result all the big ships are designed to carry small ships. I want a combat subcapitol ship that is designed to take part in short range combat directly. I literally don't give a shit about who spends how much money either people who spend more than me or less than me. My Polaris is pretty much going to be used exclusively by my org anyway, It's likely I will never actually fly it myself, but rather fly one of my smaller ships most of the time, like my Gladiator or Prospector. Im one of the people who argues extensively against people being able to solo fly caps with any effectiveness and that you should nead a minimum of like 5 to 10 actual humans to use something like a polaris effectively.

Even if its problems are fixed what will not change with the Tana is that it is Huge for a fighter, which makes it a large more easily hit target and also its not really a fighter at all but a converted light cargo ship. It's just a heavily armed variant with better shields. It's veryliterally Star Citizens version of Boba Fetts Slave 1. It will be a great ship for a Mercenary or a bounty hunter who isn't taking prisoners but will be out fought by a dedicated combat ship.

If the Mustang Alpha is SCs TIE fighter, the Delta is the TIE Interceptor. It has more weapons, a pair of fixed rocketpods that are currently unique in the game and let it punch wildly above its weight class and special sig reduction armor that makes you harder to track and target.
It is however still made of Plastic and hopeful prayers like the alpha.

I don't even want a space atlanta, that being a cruiser and all, though a real world cruiser is about like a Frigate in SC. Ideally I want a space Clemson, A smallish somewhat fast ship with a complete focus on direct attack with Guns and torpedos. Like I would like the Polaris a lot more if I could rip out the entire hangar and use it as a modular port to install other stuff. I mentioned when it first came out stuff, like additional gunnery, drop pod launchers for infantry, Vertical launch standoff missiles, EWAR equipment, pretty much anything you can think of that directly increases the ships utility or firepower instead of simply sticking another ship which will require additional crew and not be protected by the ships shield and hull armor.

It's not discussed often because CIG hasn't talked about it in a long time.

What we know so far is that there's basically 3 kinds of exploration. The first is equiping your ship with a jump point scanner and a mapping computer to find and map new jump points and systems. The map can then be sold for money.

The second is scanning planets and asteroids for resources. This info can also be sold.

The third is the indiana jones stuff. Finding a derelict in space or a wreck on a planet and physically getting out of your ship and checking it out.

It would be neat if it cost about 100bucks less than it does. Also is loses even more ground on the cost argument for being a direct kitbash of retaliator parts that looks nothing like its concept art. I kinda like it, but its too expensive for its size. As is literally everything it does a Constellation andromeda does better for less money. Its a heavy fighter but really doesn't pack heavy fighter punch and costs as much as a midrange multicrew, for the same money you could very nearly buy two constellation Tuarus's which like the Andromeda will hit just as hard.

Kinda shit until they redo it to be more in line with the concept. Likely undergunned for what it's supposed to to and has a hitbox that's like 50% engines. Also the exterior is a lazy kitbash of Retaliator parts and the interior is just horrible.

Speaking of the Polaris, I was really let down by it. Instead of a good anti-fighter ship with lots of firepower, we got this stupid missle-boat that basically invalidates the existence of ships like the Retaliator and to an extent the Gladiator. I have a hard time believing a single Idris will have enough small-arms fire to fend off obnoxious Hornets and Sabers without wasting precious ammo.

If the Polaris had been exactly that - a small gunboat corvette (like a Clemson or a Zerstörer 1) - who could defend an Idris from smaller ships, it could've also pulled double-duty as an Enforcer and Anti-Piracy vessel for Hull D/Es.

wouldn't that make it even worse? A Sabre should be a lot more cheaper at least, though depending on if the insides can be easily swapped out like its variants it could have some use

But the Vanguard is supposedly based around long duration flights and decent sensors. As well as the armor/damage states which are unimplemented.
Just like the Retaliator it can't be judged until it's doing what it's sold for.

depends what you mean by "decent". You won't be chucking photon torpedoes up a Javelin's tailpipe but you might find a group of spacenerds to have fun with. No you don't need to give them more money for fucking spaceships, it's optional and fitting in to an org is a dumb reason if ever I heard one. You have a starter explorer/scout and a small decently armed cargo ship. If that's not what you want to do and you want to support the development and there's a ship that does something you want to do instead of the roles your ships already have then spend away.

I don't understand why some guy are mad against the Polaris, put aside that it can easily get a variation It make sense to me.

pocket carrier are needed because fighters are the life blood of the game.
IRL, we have frigate that carry helicopter, now imagine that your chopper can be replaced by an A-10 a F-22 or a supersonic gunship-transport.
And it certainly is going to be good against fighter, it carry lot of anti-fighter missiles, good AA turrets (once they rework the control).

And there's a big reason to not put a big gun on top : it's supposed to help fighting fighting capital ship, yet it can't have a good shield, it's too small for that.
It can also be considered too small to power a capital gun and keep the speed needed to compensate its not-strong-enough shield.
That's why the torpedo are needed. Only them would deal huge damage for little energy, it come at the cost of limited ammo but this ship is fast enough to withdraw.

And remember the rescue part of its profile ? That's also why you needed the hangar bay.

I'm much more skeptical about the need of more than the big hangar on This cruiser. (size between Javelin and Bengal) It doesn't need fighter projection, only a mean to access planet since it can't land itself.

I think the idea with "carriers" is that rather than carry a fleet like a modern day ship it's a refuel/resupply station, and the fighters are capable of following the capital wherever it goes (with the exception of the Bengal obviously).

These ships can then still fulfill the role of extending the operating area of many fighters, but do so by traveling with them rather than for them.

BMM and Hull C or Cutlass and Hull D?
Apart from the store credits I intend to spend one one of those options I also have a Constellation, SH and Starfarer (those are staying) and an expendable 85X. Any other suggestions?

Memes aside, I'd suggest getting an Orion on the last day and spending the rest on some mid-tier multirole ship. You could get a Cutlass and Herald for example.

>>161029690
Ship costs can be seen by going to ship upgrades and clicking off the "my ships" box in the left window
>>
>>161029690
$325 for the Orion, Reclaimer is at the $350 tier along with the Crucible, Carrack, Endeavor and Hull D.
Actually, might be worth looking into the Crucible. On paper it has the potential to be the best support that that can repair, refuel and rearm.

>>161028426
We know we will be able to put Jump drive on everything because it allow to move early game but they'll certainly be quite limited in range.
I don't think an Idris would fly with 10 fighters around (except the long range one with cabin and all) and repair them as they go.

When you are deep in enemy/nowhere land, the only place to eat and sleep would be the carrier.
But the big ship pictured was (long ago) described a Cruiser, you use those to unleash hell far away so it don't need projection.
...unless maybe you define projection toward planets surface, if fighter are the only way to strike from orbit (life and blood...)

Only Mustangs, MPUVs and alien ships came on sale...


Where the fuck is the SH and Sabre sale?!
>>
>>161033689
Isn't this basically:
"Sabre shields issue"
A Delta / M50 / Avenger can still take out a SH if the SH doesn't respond to the threat.
A Sabre at present can ignore any threat unless it is a Sabre or SH because those are the only 2 fighters with enough raw firepower to dent the Sabre's broken 240hitpoint/second shield regen.

That there is no niche for a "light fighter" or "long range fighter" It makes the ship pointless if the only advantage it has is that it costs less or travels further only to get btfo by the guy hanging out locally in his SH. The Delta should be an npc killer sure but the gladius and vanguard are too beautiful to be such wet noodles.

They shouldn't be completely hopeless but they should still lose under equal skill like he said.

He may be a little overdramatic, but he's right about AI likely being completely outmatched by players. A squad who knows what they're doing and is kitted well will likely steamroll an AI jav if they can get close enough. The only exception is if the AI cheats and 'knows' where the player is, or if the AI is very well programmed and able to change up tactics on the fly other than just 'crouch, shoot, hide, nade, goto 0'

It's not that huge - the fact the ship has such a unique silhouette makes you a different kind of challenge - your weakspots are to your left and right, not above or below. It has by far the best shields in its class as well, and the most weapons of anything that size with a cargo hold/interior.
>>

I actually just melted mine a few days ago and kind of already want to buy it back

Didn't think of the 85x LTI upgrade, i might just do that as well, ty anon.

I just wish they'd update it.

It wouldnt be hard to fix at all, just give the delta the cockpit entrance of the racer variants, remove the little ladder and walkway, it makes sense to have that for the beta because of it's interior, but not the other variants.

Then just update the cockpit, solid.

Any thoughts on a particular variant that you find superior? Or is it pretty good no matter which version I choose?

Cutelass basics:
Ebony = higher multirole flexibility
Blueberry = combat (higher shields + missiles) but can still multirole if the prisoner cells are removable
Rose = Support focused dropship (lack of cargo or missiles)

Hopefully they'll make the variants fairly interchangeable, but >>161047359 is fairly spot on:
The Black is the multi-role powerhouse, while the Blue is supposed to be better at combat due to increased armor and a more robust missile loadout. The Red is primarily a search and rescue ship with a medical suite sutured into the cargo hold. Supposedly you're going to be able to exchange the cargo bay modules fairly easily, but we have yet to see that in action on any ship.

If you could spend the extra running a reclaimer if sold would give you a way to collect and salvage rare items and such to trade and sell with the BMM, also Cutless or MPUV Cargo for added utility for moving cargo around on on either.

Prospector would be good aswell but limit what you could "bring" in as far as trade supplies but I think both the reclaimer and prospector and be refitted to do mining/salvaging alike to a less effective rate vice versa.

Both the reclaimer and BMM are subject to price hike.

what is the best ship to upgrade my 85x LTI from the limited sales? I can only go so far to 125$

I already upgraded my package ship to Aurora CL so cargoing is not a factor for me.

Probably a Hornet then. It's the most game change proof option
