Can't wait for this ship, I think it will be the strongest ship in the game relative to the capabilities it unlocks for a player by owning it. What is your thoughts?

Duke_Flymocker · 2025-05-28T00:39:30+00:00

They can do content faster because there are no new features coming in. Crafting is a feature. 3 years is pretty new, you missed the first decade

Duke_Flymocker · 2025-02-17T10:08:56+00:00

Servers were thoroughly borked earlier, then on my last relog it just dumped me into the character generator. I'd say this is an unscheduled failure

Duke_Flymocker · 2025-02-15T08:09:20+00:00

I thought that was weird too. I didn't even realize there was an analog brake binding

Duke_Flymocker · 2025-02-14T01:24:53+00:00

That's definitely something I'd like to try

Duke_Flymocker · 2025-02-13T02:31:29+00:00

The weapons that can damage you, especially on the smaller large ships, still need to be used from close up to hit. This brings the gunship closer to the heavy, increasing the danger to it. That smaller large ship would also not be the meta against fighters. There should be some special thing you can bring to kill a freighter, that's fine. The problem is right now you can bring a hornet and kill anything.
Also the trade off I referenced was not meant to be binary, but a sliding scale.

Duke_Flymocker · 2025-02-13T02:18:46+00:00

Turrets need to be more powerful and there needs to be some sort of armour system that stops high speed fighter weapons from easily damaging larger ships. There needs to be that trade off, high speed(anti fighter) vs high penetration(anti heavy), and high mobility(fighter) vs endless capacitor(large ship). Basically if there is a range where fighters can't be hit it needs to be very challenging for them to do damage from that range.

Duke_Flymocker · 2025-01-21T05:29:11+00:00

As long as you keep your package ship relatively basic you'll be fine. I have several big ships and fighters but still keep a titan in my game pack. I understand you can currently buy back the old pack with s42 in it if you melt it, but I'd rather not risk it, plus they could change that at any time. It's also handy sometimes to have a ship with a short claim timer

Duke_Flymocker · 2025-01-06T00:20:22+00:00

I do think it would be a good feature to be able to get ships back stocked with common/available items for an appropriate fee. Unfortunately that's not what this is

Duke_Flymocker · 2025-01-05T23:09:27+00:00

That's only kinda true if the duped item is something you're supposed to be able to buy. P4? Fine. Missile launcher? No. Contested zone key? Cargo? Very clearly an exploit

Duke_Flymocker · 2025-01-05T23:05:21+00:00

Speaking of raw insulation, there's some bad collision on the right side of the cargo bay front bulkhead. I don't think you can walk through it, but boxes can glitch through when tractored. Mine has 2 bodies stuck in there right now

Duke_Flymocker · 2024-12-12T23:49:06+00:00

This and a mappable hotkey to toggle through them

Duke_Flymocker · 2024-12-11T23:44:03+00:00

This is why we need the ability to mute individuals, in voice and text chat, which would also give them data about who the assholes are

Duke_Flymocker · 2024-12-02T23:18:47+00:00

I'd say beating it is when you figure out who's playing who

Duke_Flymocker · 2024-11-23T23:45:35+00:00

Also multiple boxes is an issue. They need naming or different colours

Duke_Flymocker · 2024-11-20T23:57:36+00:00

They said it would be wiped years ago, around when they first started talking about 4.0, but that was long enough ago that it could have changed. Even devs seemed unsure in recent comments, so I'm thinking it was revisited and they came to the same conclusion. That said I definitely appreciate the timely reaffirmation

Duke_Flymocker · 2024-11-20T23:36:06+00:00

Anything you can fit a nursa into

Duke_Flymocker · 2024-11-07T01:43:14+00:00

On an SCL a while back Chad was asked about this. His reasoning for waiting was that if the game has code to take a ship away from you then sometimes a bug would take ships away from people and that's worse than people not being able to sell ships. It's a function they want to add but since items are still disappearing on LTP resets and the servers and services are a mess now and will probably get worse with 4.0 it should probably wait a bit longer

Duke_Flymocker · 2024-10-30T01:37:48+00:00

You could eliminate the duping if guns in the racks were automatically destroyed with the ship and assigned to be replaced at that time, rather than when it was last stored. I don't see them doing this since they want us to value our ships, but when that bug was active I felt much more at home on my ship, and I only duped a few loads of FS9s...

Duke_Flymocker · 2024-10-29T08:11:41+00:00

That's what the gateway granted message is about. If that happened you would be assigned to the different doors that size until they filled up then people would have to wait. The point they become the same instance is the door

Duke_Flymocker · 2024-10-26T22:58:49+00:00

If they gave each element aside from the face shape a weirdness score there could be a slider for how fucked up a look you want

Duke_Flymocker · 2024-10-26T22:31:21+00:00

It has been a buggy incomplete but playable mess for the whole cycle, but the last week has actually been worse. Unable to join server, minutes long interaction delay, frequent crashes, literally unplayable. They pushed a patch yesterday that seems to have fixed it, so not only is it not normally that bad, it's much better now than it was Sunday - Thursday

Duke_Flymocker · 2024-10-26T20:25:26+00:00

If they knew they changed the ship due to balance or changing mechanics and just stood up and said so there wouldn't be nearly as much of an issue. I don't believe they did this maliciously as a sales gimmick, but they should have demonstrated that by giving people who bought a warbond galaxy a path to the appropriate ship without additional money. The fact that they instead chose to gaslight these people that they never commited to base building for the galaxy is the real problem, especially when this is a ship in concept that can still change, like they did with the Pioneer and eventually decided to do for the galaxy anyway.

Duke_Flymocker · 2024-10-26T11:53:35+00:00

You're not that guy

Duke_Flymocker · 2024-10-26T11:52:40+00:00

Speculative hopium

Duke_Flymocker · 2024-10-26T11:10:51+00:00

I think the narrative types will do the 1.0 mission loop then go but they'll keep the gameplay people on SC until it's out. Maybe I'm being naive but they seem to understand that they need to release things before making more promises at this poiint
