    The value of a mineable rock...selling a mining location.

    I am talking about someone who just goes out for scanning (maybe all they have is a DUR), or they run across a huge rock filled with quantanium when they are almost full, and again, selling the location (and sticking by the location until the other person gets there.). Not just from another Test...

    The value of a mineable rock...selling a mining location.

    The other day I was out mining in my MOLE. I had just about filled up when I came across two rocks containing large amounts of quantanium. Both rocks massed around 5000 (5100 and 5200 or so) and one had 35 percent quantanium and the second 45 percent quantanium. Together, those rocks were...

    Looks like the Taurus will have 172 SCU

    174 isn’t a bad amount for a ship the size of a Connie, I think it makes the Taurus a valid cargo hauler for both short run and next door system trades. The Freelancer Max will dominate some of that with the 120 SCU of cargo through small jump points, but the Connie should be a decent ship...

    WTB Taurus CCU

    I think this is correct. It‘s just been removed to allow them to bump the price up.

    To Thrust(master) or not to Thrust, that is the question..

    I use it for combat and don't have major issues. I am no Marcsand, but I can hold my own against normal players. The trigger is a 2 tier trigger (one button trigger at half, one at full). I don't know what YOU like, but this is the type of design that I prefer. I prefer heavier springs...

    To Thrust(master) or not to Thrust, that is the question..

    I have a warthog and I am very much ok with it and would buy it again. I use the second throttle for a mining throttle and it gives me precision like nothing else. No, it does not have a twist axis, but on the throttle, there is a thumb button that I have roll and right bound to. This makes...

    EVO gets bad builds..REALLY bad...like 30k before you make it out of the EZ-Hab room bad...every time they get into a server type of build. They also get first trial of stuff that may or may not work, and has established themselves as people willing to work to test the game and provide...

    Railen Q&A, Hull B Change

    There was an interesting tidbit buried in the Railen Q&A. Previously, the Hull B was listed as having a Max Crew of 1. What are they expecting the second crew member to be? Stevedore, gunner, engineer, etc.? Does this also mean it's only going to be a short range ship as well?

    Medium-sized ships discussion

    Okay, Find the ships you will make money with in every stage of the game lifecycle. Starting out, you will need at least one ship that can make you money with only the little UEC you start out with. This is the ship that will be your jumping off point, that you an make money with even if you...

    Starfield release date reveal

    Since it will be available for the PC, I will probably give it a try, ive owned exactly 2 gaming systems. An Intellivision, and an Xbox 360 (original version, still in use). (My wife does have a Wii and a Switch). Being honest, this means my next system is more likely to be a Sony than...

    Railen cargo hauler!

    I think you hit the nail on the head. If it's unsafe space and valuable cargo, it will probably be worth having a few buddies on the ship to help you defend it, plus an escort. But it needs to be worth it.

    BMM Price increase?

    Looks like the BMM got boosted another 50 bucks. Now up to 500... You can still get a warbond for 450.

    Railen cargo hauler!

    they are going to convert to having shield emitters on ships that can be damaged/destroyed (like the shield domes on the star destroyers in SW). ALL ships (including those already built) will have them eventually. They are going to introduce the tech tentatively in 3.16 according to the road map

    Railen cargo hauler!

    To me, this looks like an Alien version of the Hull B, except more crew needed, 320 vs 384 SCU, and (IIRC) it can land on planets while the B can't

    Coronavirus COVID-19 Thread

    I have heard too many people say "no proof masks do anything" Well there is proof in many studies that mask wearing does offer some protection, while not a single study I am aware of says wearing masks (when worn and handled properly) increase your risk of getting it. If there is no risk of...

    Coronavirus COVID-19 Thread

    Look at it this way, to my knowledge, there has been no scientific study that has shows that wearing a mask increases your chance of getting it just by wearing one correctly and with proper handling. Therefore, it's a very simple and cheap precaution and does absolutely nothing to restrict your...

    Not nursing glands, but reproductive organs. As for government mandate. Only the states can authorize masks for their states. The ONLY things the federal government could mandate a mask on would be things directly under their authority. Airlines, Trains, etc. Both President Trump and...
