2020 AnniVERSEary Sale...THIS YEAR!

[Patrick Spaceman]

This is an open forum, so SPAIs can see what we have for ships. Which of why I'm listen as having 14 Javelins and 7 Bengals.

I chose the Sentinel. Lol. Ships are hard.

I was curious, as for spai's I think the nearest sized org to TEST is "XPLOR" with I think 13K members. They seem like a farmers co-op keen to find every secret place out there. Then there's "The Corporation", with 11k members..they're probably nice people, but the org looks like it's set up to resemble a pyramid scheme. I remember years back the Goons were saying were referring to their Bengal, that was pretty funny.

Focus might come back to it as things progress past alpha...eventually.

Soo how many of those 7 Bengals are you going to crash into the sun?
- none?
- one?
- ALL OF THEM ???

edit : damn phone auto-correction, edited typo

All, of course all.

EVENTUALLY with a future update to the Organizations system, CIG (at one point, been a long time since they discussed) was going to add in a Org fleet page to tally up everyones ships, and the addition of roles to add beyond simple ranks. (e.g. Mining, Repair, Security, Bounty Hunting, etc etc).

But at this point it's really just for fun since half the ships, and a majority of the gameplay mechanics, aren't even completed.

I'm trying to decide between getting a Hercules C2 plus a 600i Explorer or getting a Carrack.

After losing another cargo load today, I give up on large cargo running. 600i explorer it is. And I'll put my stealth Scout/Org Anti-Cap Ship raider back into the fleet.
This should be me after the sale. (And that Mercury better be awesome.) LOL.

 

[Grimbli]

I....I may get a ROC? I'm not sure yet.

I'm not sold on the real money to value for ground vehicles. (Even though I bought a G12a)

Also, I've been eyeballing the Santok'yai

That ship looks so damned cool! I'm still considering upgrading my Hurricane to it.

Most of my ships are all bought in CCU form, I just have to buy the packages to apply them. Only CCU left is the Hull D.

I do have a Hammerhead and wondering if I should apply it or upgrade the Carrack to something else? There's not many ships available above that price to upgrade to.

Also, I have the A2, but also considering getting a C2. Something to lift cargo to space to load/unload that Hull D. Is that crazy?!

 

[Chip Hazzard]

Is that crazy?!

Yes! So you should do it

 

[Sirus7264]

I have more ships then i should be proud to say lol don't tempt me with buying more.... If i did buy anything i would think about rebuying my redeemer CCUs i have in buyback. I feel something is going to go down and the ship price is going to take off to much hype around that ship and CIG isnt going to want to disappoint. Other than that let's see if they put something really cool out this year for anniversary sale. Last but not least.... I want to rebuy my pioneer i honestly love the idea behind it it's to bad we havnt seen much around how the mechanics are going to work for it.

 

[AntiSqueaker]

I have the weirdest desire for an Argo SRV. Like it's objectively a really niche, pretty overpriced ship. Debatably kinda useless a lot of the time. But something about being a simple tugboat dude makes my smooth brain feel good.

That and my Vulcan would make me a one man AAA crew.

(If you can't be good at the game, be useful to someone who is)

Yeah, that's what had me waffling as well. At the end of the day, I figured that mining would be my "Welp, I'm broke. Now what?" activity to get back on my feet again. My theory is that the ROC will help make that climb back out of the shitter a little less steep.

True, but it is reasonably priced at 175k-ish. I can't expect it to be much more when they do a final balance. All ground vehicles should be easy to purchase in game. I'm going to buy some Rangers, but they'll be so cheap I can light my cigar with them.

Buy it in-game buddy, it's only 172,000uec. Use your real life 60 bucks for something more worthwhile!

I ended up going with the CCU from a Ranger I had sitting around with LTI. That way it can blow up infinite times for freeeeeeee (Primo hobo-machine)

Like beer...use that money to buy beer.
If there's money left over...buy more beer.

Good work! The Ranger is VERY cool, but at least you can use the ROC to earn some monies and then maybe buy the Ranger back in-game with your profits when it becomes available

Drunk mining has gotta be the best! The perfect start to a scifi-horror as you uncover some alien artefact that threatens the existence of all mankind....

Nothing is crazy.
Do you have a second Carrack? If not, then don't upgrade the only one you have to HH. The Carrack is freaking amazing.

 

[Devil Dog Hog]

I won't budge for anything less than an Endeavour Master Set

I have my Carrack Expedition on my one package and have another package in buyback. One of the old mega explorers packs. Super good value now (relatively I spose)
