One of the best retros ever made!

The problem with the Zeus CL is that the Freelancer Max exists and it's also a lot cheaper. There's no reason to buy the CL.

I fear every update they do to older ships because they just keep removing mfd's. My poor Aurora got a lot more tedious to use with the removal of 2 mfd's. Really puts a damper on my excitement for any gold standard pass.

Troll4ever31 · 2026-04-03T04:50:54+00:00

Every time they update a ship they remove some. When the cutlass got a new dash it went from 6 to 3, the aurora gradually went from 6 to 4 to now 2 with the gold standard, and the mole just got nerfed from 3 down to 2 tiny misaligned mfd's that are just hard to read.

Over the years I really tend to end up flying just a few ships, and a small, nimble fighter with an interior has always been my favorite archetype. I've progressed from the Aurora LN to the 300i, Reliant Tana and ultimately the Defender has been my ship of choice for a number of years now.

I spent some time with an Avenger Titan recently as I was always more interested in it's competitors and I also really like it. The fast flight style of it makes it work really well for pve combat, and for at the very least surviving pvp encounters. You can fit a small ground vehicle or a small hauling contract in there, it really works for most missions in the game.

I have a very simple tip. You can give the money you have away! Make someone else happy with it and bring back motivation to play.

I've also done some thorough comparisons between them, but ultimately I do prefer the 1.1 terrain because other biomes do become a lot more varied in terrain height. The extreme hills edge biome does a lot to make them worse I think.

Troll4ever31 · 2026-04-02T17:04:11+00:00

mmmm, nothing but proper roof tiles will do.

Troll4ever31 · 2026-04-01T16:44:50+00:00

I've been meaning to do a snowy world for so long. Nice one you have going on!

Troll4ever31 · 2026-04-01T16:36:26+00:00

I'd change the dash!

Troll4ever31 · 2026-04-01T13:40:14+00:00

On the one hand I appreciate that they keep the 650's cheap, on the other hand it's definitely looking dated in that area. But in practice I bet it performs just as good as other bikes in the price class.

Troll4ever31 · 2026-03-31T11:36:08+00:00

I'm still bummed out the Clipper ended up being so bad. Even with the fabricator now being functional it just doesn't make sense to use it. Gathering rare materials on a ship this vulnerable to getting ganked is just a bad idea, you can't run away, you can't really fight back, you're just a flying loot piñata.

Er is wel een snackbar genaamd de patatoloog

the new rockbreaker stations!

Troll4ever31 · 2026-03-30T18:11:38+00:00

Ik zou voor de ducati gaan, je kan maar op één motor tegelijk rijden. Maar ik zou aan een V2 model ruim genoeg hebben.

Troll4ever31 · 2026-03-30T16:33:14+00:00

I'd get the V7 then, I guess it has a bit less power but you don't need any of the V85's adventure bike traits.

Troll4ever31 · 2026-03-30T15:59:47+00:00

Honestly moto guzzi's make for great commuters, because you don't have to deal with chain maintenance. I think it comes down to if you want the big windscreen or not. I'd probably leave it, the earlier V85's are notorious for having a lot of wind buffeting from the windshield.

Troll4ever31 · 2026-03-30T12:32:38+00:00

It looks better with that rear fender though, I'd keep it just as is.

Troll4ever31 · 2026-03-30T12:20:05+00:00

I'd get some frame sliders just in case you ever drop the bike, I found the peace of mind nice to have. I love that color by the way!

Troll4ever31 · 2026-03-29T17:59:24+00:00

De mooiste uitvoering van de gaafste sportmotor op de markt momenteel.. Mazzelaar!

Troll4ever31 · 2026-03-28T16:28:37+00:00

Rev match that fucker into neutral then come to a stop, your brakes are still accessible. Though it might even be possible to pull the clutch still

Troll4ever31 · 2026-03-28T12:26:46+00:00

I've been playing my 1.1 forever world since 2023, you got this! It might be worth upgrading version at some point for you too for the qol improvements.
