. . .is less than a week away. So lets not "hype" but rather rally. Is a great time to introduce friends to the game when it has a bunch of new features, and IMHO, real world friends who you know are not going to betray you in game, are more valuable than anything else.

What do you think, will the Terrapin and Reclaimer be released next week with 3.0? Turrets are supposedly fixed, so multi-player is going to heat up.

 

[Printimus]

Terrapin and Reclaimer in 3.0? Probably not, but maybe for 3.1.

 

[Stevetank]

Wooooo! Rally!

 

[Shadow Reaper]

Was there an update from the last chart? I thought they were both scheduled for release with 3.0, along with the Harbinger, Razor, and the Aurora update.

More interesting will be if they will sell the Origin 600 Series ;)

Hmm the introduce your friends thing, I would say depends on your friends, if they are the very patient in it for the long haul then yeah maybe. Otherwise maybe they should wait until you can actually reliably team up with your friends.

Thing is what they show always looks good, they have no problems with nice screen shots etc, will they actually show anything positively surprising? I have a strong feeling it will be something planet based again.

They will for sure be doing a ship sale that definitely is reliable.

At least with my low low expectations there is room for a positive surprise.

I'm holding out hope for the nice vertical slice for Squadron 42 but I'm not holding my breath. We can of course expect 3.0 launch news. Possibly an info reveal of this "game changing ship".

In either case I can't wait for the PTU launch and to check out my shiny new reworked Cutlass!

I have no friends in real life anymore. The verse has driven then all away...
Hang on someone's knocking.

Friends are here. Gotta go drink beer and play beach volleyball. Chow.


PS: as both the Doom Turtle (Wolftank) and Reclaimer (Owl's Well That Ends Well) are in my hangar, I approve this message.

I've been quietly prepping for this...

Or any sale really. Haha.

Well, I fear the 600 will cost the original price of the 890j and will have 1/3 of the coolness of the 890j ;)

I've heard rumors all this "bug thing" is just a big promo-thing and they will release 3.0 on gamescom ... Shots fired and out ( ˘˘з)♬♪

Haha, how evil you are. I like it.

Time will tell I reckon. I'm not too concerned. Whatever will be, will be...

Wasn't it Gamescom last year, where they opened with the vid with the attack on the pirate base? I would think they will want to top that somehow. That was a pretty freaking awesome vid.

They will probably give a sweet demo of missions in 3.0.

Turrets fixe and new sort of turret.... missile, automated, etc...
