    Death of a Bebop

    I thought it was pretty close to the original, and liked lots about the whole thing. The single place where it departed quite deliberately was they miscast Faye, then dressed her less sexy, then her actress Daniella Pineda posted up a "fuck you all" vid and that was the end. 60% of the...

    Death of a Bebop

    "I felt resistant to the idea of the lead, female character being gratuitous or overly sexualized." Yeah, so. . .lets fuck up that character then, and pretend we're not. View: https://youtu.be/AMepjjkL5zc

    They fixed the Vanguard?

    I think we agree on everything so long as we stipulate you can't be both at once. The point behind having a stealth coating and projecting a false signature is you can then turn that signature off. What you want to do is provoke a targeting radar online by presenting a signature you can switch...

    They fixed the Vanguard?

    So there are two issues here. First, there is the rhetorical confusion that SEAD ops are often called "Wild Weasel" ops when the WW portion is only one part. It's easy to cite sources that speak of the F-117 operating in WW ops, but that does not mean it operated in the WW role within the op...

    They fixed the Vanguard?

    Yeah. This is why I still expect large changes to the Sentinel's capabilities. I don't recall CIG ever making a declarative statement about what to expect in the long term. IIRC, they were pretty hushed on what they gave us as compared to what they had said, so I really think the EMP is a...

    They fixed the Vanguard?

    Yes, I recall the original sales pitch, but we know they never delivered on the cockpit, e-war pod, decoy missiles and EMP charges. Instead they gave us an EMP and never said what the long term intention is going to be. They never developed an anti-radiation missile (wild weasel), which is...

    In case you haven't seen it.

    I had to watch this a couple times to really digest it. It's full of awesome! First time I've seen anyone use the guns on the Nox to real advantage. Love to see this. Are these guys TEST?

    They fixed the Vanguard?

    IIRC, the Sentinel was indeed sold as a stealth ship, capable of wild weasel. It's the only Vanguard with radar absorbing armor and an EM box around the reactors. It did produce a much lower EM signature than the others until the weapons nerf at 3.14, and I hadn't noticed it was put back until...

    They fixed the Vanguard?

    Looks like 3.18 reversed the 3.14 decision about stealth in the Sentinel. https://www.erkul.games/loadout/SLot9ZUp

    2022 Letter from the Chairman

    I confess I have been seeing SQ42 in more a villainous role than it seems it deserves. I was under the impression that SQ42 was added to the original vision after the original fundraiser. Montoya clarified the point in his recent Tomato talk that rather, it was pitched from the start. Seems I...

    SpaceTomato Podcast with Montoya

    Great stuff. Always great to see Mr Tomato. I had no idea he was in Turkey. Cool that. I just wanted to leave a thought about the questions over Theaters of War. It was once described to me as Star Marine with tanks. IIRC, this was about the time the Nova was released and about the same time...

    2022 Letter from the Chairman

    Putting all of TEST on one shard save for special events would prove problematic. How many want to game on a server with 30,000 plyers, 25,000 of which you can't attack?

    2022 Letter from the Chairman

    I disagree. I'm not making those kinds of complaints. I think Chris wants to put as much fun in the hands of the players as possible. However, I also think he grossly underestimated the number of hours needed for both SC and SQ42, and it matters if he still has a player base when his game...

    2022 Letter from the Chairman

    It feels like Chris asked permission to dick us around for another year while he builds a different game than the one we backed, and that we gave him permission. Pyro in 2024, makes me angry. When is SQ42 due to be released?

    Black Kite

    Some things to note: He's using the new Gallant, which has a magazine of 45 shots, and operates in single, 3 round burst and 5 round burst modes. It fires faster in 5 round burst. Had he selected 5 round and used a suppressor, he would not have begun aggroing NPCs at minute 12, and this could...

    3.18 Weapons

    Thanks for this. So it seems the rumors were not true that ballistics magazines were tweaked in 3.18, at least for pilot weapons and the turrets in the various Vanguard iterations. Likewise the Cutty Black, Tana, Mustang weapons, even the Mantis that is stock on the Gladius is still just 1.1...
