    Flying the Corsair in a spreadsheet

    So, there were some surprises there. And the blindstay distance is surprisingly short for most. Actually, I'm now wondering if I mixed up perimeter length and radius in the formula EDIT: Yeaah, I had messed up the formula. Now it looks more sane. So basically, most ships could theoretically...

    Flying the Corsair in a spreadsheet

    Okey, so just for shiggles, I made this spreadsheet about A) The maximum distances various ships should stay away from Corsair under combat speed in order to remain in its blind spot. B) Whether, considering the sizes of the ships, that's even possible C) How long would a Corsair with fixed...

    IAE 2952 WB CCU watch

    Since you said that, I kept refreshing the page. The CCU popped up now! Coooooool!

    IAE 2952 WB CCU watch

    F7C-M Super Hornet for $165. Finally something from the $100 to $200 range, nice! This should fit in most CCU chains

    Did I maybe join TEST during IAE? :glorious:

    IAE 2952 WB CCU watch

    BMM today. It's so special, there's 3 options available: The Warbond Edition, or the Standard edition, or the Standard edition again. Cool stuff. (So that's probably a bug? Edit: Yeah, it went away when I refreshed the site)

    Successfully rented ships not showing up in ASOP

    I did try giving it a good long while to load the ships, scrolling back and forth while I waited. It's a good suggestion but at least I didn't manage to get it to work. I'll try again tomorrow I suppose

    Successfully rented ships not showing up in ASOP

    So, as per the title. I went to the expo, rented some ships, successfully mind you. Got that happy green text, not the error one, that's a separate issue. Anywho, went to ASOP, not showing up there. Checked NIXNAX, the rented ships do show up there so the rental was definitely successful. If...

    IAE 2952 WB CCU watch

    Looking great there! Let's hope we see warbonds in the $100 to $220 as well this IAE, should usually be at least a couple.

    IAE 2952 WB CCU watch

    If anyone got the caterpillar CCU from Eclipse, they sure got lucky there. Stuff like this is probably why they decided not to bring every WB CCU offer back at finale, this lineup is starting to look a bit too optimal compared to previous years.

    The Black and Yellow Corsair is sexy AF!

    I have beheld the Black and Yellow Corsair, and I can confirm that it is "sexy AF" indeed.

    IAE 2952 WB CCU watch

    Yeah, I was worried that 600i would've already gone up in price, but this is still the old one. Not sure if it even will, thought that with the rework it'd be possible to get bit of a bump there.

    IAE 2952 WB CCU watch

    Yeah, as @Brictoria mentioned, you can hold off on applying the upgrades until very close to the launch date (so like, couple years at least still). And indeed, if you cultivate a CCU chain over multiple events, the discount can get a bit... extreme. I got a complete CCU chain (that I've not...

    Merchantman done!

    If you want it, but don't want to pay quite $400 for it, look at the IAE 2952 WB CCU watch thread. Especially check the SPOILER: Information for new members in the opening post.

    Merchantman done!

    You probably saw 890 jump on a Quantity-limited sale schedule. Doesn't mean they're only selling 890 jump, actually it means 890 jump will be harder to buy as only a certain number will be sold. So don't worry, this event is most decidedly for selling ships, and 600i will definitely be there...

    Cutter this, Cutter that

    Higher security systems are part of the overall game design. If CIG fails to implement these and everywhere is a constant PvP battle zone, the game itself will flop and we don't need to worry about how poorly any particular ship might avoid detection.

    Cutter this, Cutter that

    I don't think the MO for starter ships is to creep through Vanduul space on a box delivery mission. I'm actually pretty sure that starter ships are meant for starter areas for doing starter missions, before you graduate to some more advanced ships, whether by renting or owning. And at starter...

    Merchantman done!

    Well, almost nobody has any trouble with ships getting price increases before launch. But there's some strong grumbling whenever a flight ready ship gets bumped. Those are supposed to be "safe." There's been a couple bumps on flight ready ships, and CIG has had to justify them and warn of them...

    Merchantman done!

    Nah, it's the moneymaker, so they'll keep teasing it until the game itself releases in 2030. The BMM will release the next year for a final price of $1950, and it will have grown in size a few times in between, now having two hangars, a jail for unruly shoppers, no questions asked kiosk, an...
