Snares were set up originally to drop the ship being stopped about 18km away, somewhere on a sphere around the Mantis. Our testing with them consistently placed the 'target' ship at that distance, meaning the chase would be on. I haven't tested it at all recently, so that may have been...

Goals.

Welcome to TEST! And thank you for support this mutual.. ah.. celebration of technology. Yeah. that one. Get set up into the Discord server.. that's where stuff is happening and people are there damn near all the time.

Lots of stuff here... Going to point out that 'recently' isn't even close to the truth, Muilenberg was shown the door 4 years ago. And the investment firm he founded afterward has failed too. Good riddance to bad leadership. There is much more to this story but the tl:dr is that all the...

Probably within the next 12 months as one of the ships CIG showed a silhouette for. Even if not, they showed us whitebox visuals for some of it, so there are people working the ship. The Orion, on the other hand, will likely continue to languish alongside the Endeavor. More important to my...

I'm glad it's not just me noticing.. CIG does seem to be leaning HEAVY into the warbond CCU's, more than I have paid attention to in the past anyway. With stuff that was on hand already, this Polaris finishes up at $310. A happy result. 🍻

You can get into Arena Commander and test part of the system right now with the Gladius. SCM control includes 'boost' which is your max G accelerations and only lasts as long as you have boost to spend. NAV mode is also available. This is where your weapons turn off and the shield energy is...

This also includes a re-tuning of every ship in the game, although that will mostly apply to medium and below. Ships from the Connie size and up are (per Yogi) intended to fight more 'Naval style' than anything resembling dogfighting. Along with this the combination of resource management...

In one of the recent videos John Crewe addressed the question. There wasn't much detail but the underlying idea is that big ships should not feel too threatened by smaller ships. Armor, weapon changes, resource management, turret improvements, and the much higher durability of larger ships is...

Hey welcome to TEST! Former Eve Uni instructor here; was a solid group of people who really want to help, and I made a lot of friends while there. TEST here in SC is not the same kind of organization, but it is friendly and relaxed (might be the beer). There are a bunch of knowledgeable...

@Southern_Cross_07 might be referring to @Richard Bong 's earlier post about the Ares having 20 size 3 missiles. Not quite as many as the MIS but not far off. I'm also going to point out that it's two swappable hardpoints are SIZE 5, meaning they can carry torpedoes. Ares is there when you...

Dos answer es si, they do fill a roll. Pretty much just ONE role, and that is designated hitter. It's the single seat fighter concept taken to a logical extreme. As @Richard Bong aptly pointed out up above, the Eclipse does a very similar job while providing some capacity to fill other niches as...

@Blind Owl They have been 'un-nerfed' somewhat, to the extent that the guns actually hit targets again. Still takes some patience to make use of, and a player in a light fighter is the stated (and effective) counter to these ships. I bought mine back out, and have been enjoying them for...

UPDATE!! The dates have been extended thru December - https://robertsspaceindustries.com/spectrum/community/SC/forum/1/thread/arena-commander-experimental-mode-schedule So this is still possible to do - and that's really good, since it appears I did not get credit for something along the way...

Which pedals you after? I've got a set of the basic Virpil's (VPC Warbrd) that have never been used, and would pass them on at a TEST friendly discount if they appeal. I'd originally set up the simpit to swap between HOTAS and Dual stick.. and never actually swapped once the Virpil Alpha's...

Is.. Is it time to say goodbye to the humble Aurora, and acknowledge the beer carrying capacity of the C1 as the new TEST standard ship?

Hangover support?

Welcome! We is here to help, just jump in to Discord and make yourself known.

Alt-K to get the Fury into combat state. Yes, annoying AF. But fun to fly!!

TEST is a very welcoming group.. but joining and shilling gear on the same day isn't likely to earn you anything other than suspicion. Come hang out in the Discord, introduce yourself here on the forms, have a favorite beverage.
