The Carrack is a bit faster in a straight line, yes. However, it has significantly slower turn rates than the Ares. In order to roll a new shield face, the carrack would need around 2 seconds if the Ares' are hitting a side shield. So that would certainly be possible, however, if they're hitting...

I would like to see any fully crewed* medium to large industrial multicrew ship against same number of players in snubs on the opposing side. *Fully crewed including captains, copilots, engineers, etc. where applicable, even if they're missing gameplay RN.

Well, let's say you got the same number of players on each side. 5 people in the carrack vs 5 Ares' (And then whatever number of escorts the Carrack has is engaging equal number of escorts the Ares' have), those Ares attack in a well coordinated manner hitting just one side of the ship. This...

Well, I'll throw in my 2cents as well: Right now, 3 players flying their own ships is just straight up better than 3 players sharing a ship. The best fleet composition is, therefore, a mix of light, medium and heavy fighters. If you have couple people who absolutely want to sit on turrets, then...

CIG could do something like, a special shirt with some interesting design that there are something like, only 100 of in the entire universe. The NFT itself would be a block chained datafile of the shirt you pop in a special NFT folder under SC, and it only works if blockchain recognizes you as...

That's a really cool fleet I got to say. I really dig liberator, but with the limited resources I got available, it's something I'll have to earn in game. Besides, the only thing a liberator could carry that I happen to have, would be the Hornet, so I guess I'll just have to hitch a ride. (Or my...

BMM hangar is larger than Carrack, the largest ship that fits Carrack is 100i afaik. Meanwhile BMM hangar is designed to comfortably fit a defender, which is pretty large for a small ship, not the largest but on the larger end. Comfortably fitting a defender then of course means it can fit some...

As I recall, CIG has talked about this topic. It was a good while ago and I can't remember exactly where it was, but think the gist of it was along the lines of, yes, you can use tractor beams to target ships but if the target is larger there's some negative effect... I can't remember what it...

Eh, I think the controversy exists precisely because a number of people absolutely love their carracks and think it is the best, and everyone else should recognize it as the best, and now CIG is even saying something else might be the best, so those Carrack owners are having none of it. I don't...

I'm pretty sure that that's supposed to be possible, but I can't remember if it's implemented or not.

I've been trying out the Ares' in during the IAE, and I got to say, they seem to be really vulnerable to lighter craft. I mean, they're fine against NPCs, but I'm thinking I wouldn't want to be flying one against even a medium fighter in hands of a good player, let alone something like Hawk or...

Hmm, I started thinking. Those NPC taxi missions, now, BMM is a trading vessel, but it DOES have at least two, if not 4 or 6, quest rooms (not sure how many those two areas have). AND it is quite luxuriant ship. I wonder if it's possible to do some VIP transport missions as well, would be a nice...

I've been waiting for this for a long while. Finally, my Gemini gets some action! Too bad I just melted my Gemini this IAE because it had $280 value in it and all of my CCU chains were $155-$215 to ships more expensive than Gemini. Had to rescue that $65+ for other purposes! Good thing is...

1:10 One *HUGELY* important thing to mention about virtual memory is that, YOU NEED TO MAKE SURE YOU ACTUALLY HAVE THAT MUCH SPACE ON THE DRIVE! Actually, let's put few more exclamations there: !!! If you don't have enough space, and SC actually would need that space, it'll crash to desktop. Had...

I don't wanna say I'm jelly, but man, am I jelly or what.

Man, I wish I had a second BMM... Well, reflecting on my earlier mistakes I did grab an extra Gemini->Endeavor CCU this time around. Though I realize that I should've also grabbed an extra Cat->Gemini CCU >_> I think I had something like Mole->Gemini in buybacks though, so not a huge deal, but...

And mine poetry be words, often together, But neverways dords, err, whatever.

Yes, that's where the 4th image is from, some helpful fellow had taken screenshots and converted it to imgur image dump. I'm hoping someone does the same to this video, far too lazy to do it myself... :D

Okey, so today we got this update from CIG: In short, -a walkaround of Odyssey, looks kinda cool but not my cup of dried then boiled leaves. -Some information of BMM and a cool little image dump. -Bunch of RAFTs combining into a giant mecha. Anyhow, so we had this pic there: Okey, so this...

I didn't mean that your aUEC would be converted to UEC at some ratio, I meant like the ship prices might stay the same but mission rewards could go from 30k aUEC to 3k UEC or something. That is to say, we're currently just testing things out, so it's quite possible that alphaUEC would be faster...
