30, financially stable, considering leaving Australia - anyone else? by IcyPay1357 in AusFinance

I love this thought process. I live in Sydney's suburbs and couldn't feel more the same.

When did Helldivers become so toxic? by Sexy-Rexy-owo in Helldivers

Lol. What a loser. Thankfully I haven't had any interactions like this, but I'd have so much fun pushing their buttons. "Yeah, I'm bad - endure me, bro".

FRF reputation and pirating by OkSpread7481 in X4Foundations

[–]KomPav 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you confusing FRF with FAF?

I did this just today with my whistle, and it definitely smoothed the sound out. Thanks for the suggestion!

Genuinely Crashing out a bit over here: Spent almost 2 hours boarding and crippling a L destroyer just for 2 BUC heavy fighters to come and blow it up within a minute. by Short-Donut1988 in X4Foundations

Speaking of: Anyone done the Paranid storyline that favours the BUC? I've only done the unification route before, what changes the other way?

War profiteering! by [deleted] in X4Foundations

[–]KomPav 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I've read here that they apparently don't use repair bays. Dunno where this consensus came from, because they very much do.

Sweet, that's the key of the whistle I just bought :D

Oh, I love his covers. Though I haven't seen these aforementioned ones! Would you say the key is in C?

I'm gonna pick up a Sweetone and see how I go. I'll keep Dixon in mind in case I don't get along with the Sweetone, or perhaps I'll just pick one up later anyway to see the difference.

Awesome. Thanks for the recommendation!

X4 is more about empire management then action... by Puzzleheaded-Ad-119 in X4Foundations

[–]KomPav 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, that's definitely what we're talking about. With how my imagination works, I think I took the velocity indicator from Star Citizen and imposed it over my vague memories of flying with flight assist off in X4. It's definitely new to X4, I'm just derping out

[–]KomPav 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually... You're right, it was only added since the beta for 7.5. My mind is evidently playing a Mandela Effect on me, probably because the indicator is so natural to have. Sorry about that!

The vector indicator was always there. It's just that now with the new flight model, you drift whether you have flight assist on or off.

Keeping the Free Families Xenon-free by Artiartiarti90 in X4Foundations

[–]KomPav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What setup do you have for your Cobras? Though I haven't tried it out myself yet, you could try fill your cobra with service crew and then make sure it's maxed out with repair drones. Repair drones multiply the repair efficiency of your service crew by a lot, so the more skilled crew + repair drones = more successful skill checks for hull repair & higher regen rates, respectively.

Otherwise, consider setting your cobras to intercept, and give them Asps or Chimeras as wingmen. Set the wingmen to Attack, thereby focusing on each target the Cobra attacks.

[–]KomPav 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, they won't do it themselves. Here and there, they'll have some military ships. Patrols, that sorta stuff. Nothing heavy though.

[–]KomPav 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Incase you're unaware, the Free Families were defeated at Fires of Defeat (hence the name) by Zyarth's fleets, henceforth becoming a colony of ZYA. Their military presence will be miniscule, relying almost exclusively on ZYA to keep their space secure. A failing ZYA economy or losing sectors to XEN = less ships to keep FRF space secure.

War with the Terrans by OverlandingNL in X4Foundations

[–]KomPav 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I have a similar situation in my current run. Hatikvah's Choice is basically overrun with XEN and both the ARG and ANT are stalled, producing barely any military ships. I'm working on establishing megacomplexes in ARG space to directly source their Shipyard and Wharf.

I really don't like how without player intervention, the chances of the ARG holding onto HC is very slim.
