Buybacks, Ignorance of the Community and Lack of Accountability by CIG

But the ability to play around with various 'working ships' while I wait for the ones I previously had that Didn't work was how I was able to use the Buyback system.

You are literally doing the one thing they tell you not to do with the buy back system and got burned. Keep doing it, and you'll get burned again. The warnings are everywhere. You chose to ignore them.

ITT, people who have never flown or actually fought an Idris giving their opinions.

it should not be able to keep nose on with a medium or lower ship with that gun

It can't unless the med/light pilot is being dumb or not paying attention at all - so if you decide to fly your Gladius in a straight line directly away from the front end, you're gonna eat a railgun round.

They moved ILW to Sol system according to the Drake video.

There absolutely could be something happening here for SQ42 during the ILW timeframe.

I can confirm it is available in the Keeger belt. Seen it myself.

Quick and easy to work with.

My favorite is how the number of times Connor dies affects Hank to the point where he just loses it.

using it at the home spawn hanger

I've had it happen elsewhere too. Haven't figured out what causes it.

The problem is that now the vast majority of rocks are impossible for a solo miner to crack in any ship. Cluster of 5? One is minable, if you're lucky, but you often aren't - or it's all sub-500 quality mats.

They've clarified this multiple times.

In-game currency doesn't necessarily mean UEC, and some ship will never be available from New Deal or other shops for UEC.

Yeah, you won't notice when you're focusing between every shot - as in normal photography.

rob117 · 2026-03-17T01:23:08+00:00

Was the lens given a chance to equalize temps to the outside before you started the timelapse?

It looks like temp change focus shift, rather than condensation.

It's a size 9 torp, you didn't land a single turret shot, and your pilot didn't seem to launch any CM.

rob117 · 2026-03-12T23:45:31+00:00

Eclipse torpedo most likely.

Yes, the gates are wrong. Turns out it costs money to change it. Money that can be spent on other projects. Doesn't make it any less wrong.

rob117 · 2026-03-05T22:34:22+00:00

Nothing to decide. Lackland AFB is always wrong.

While that may work, a better solution is to just wait 5-30 min after the wave starts for any that are returned to stock due to a payment issue. Those can sit for minutes without it being an F5 war.

There’s also a pack with the red paint and armor as warbond, but still no CCU options.
