    mix & match weapons

    I don't think you can kill a person with a distortion weapon. If the Lightstrike VI is an S6 weapon that would explain a lot! It is listed in Hardpoint as an S1 weapon. Given that, I think I would mix and match the Yellowjacket and Havoc, for the same reason--kills all kinds of targets fast...

    mix & match weapons

    You can set up triggers however you like, but the pips will land together given terrestrial ranges. Most targets will be 0.1 km away or less. I like the notion of matching because the ballistics will slaughter foot soldiers and the laser can kill shields and vehicles, and can't run out of...

    mix & match weapons

    So I'm toying with the calculators with the Ursa Rover. Never done this before. Can't really modify anything but the guns yet, but looking at vehicle class guns is very interesting. Against a hard target like another rover, you'd like the Lightstrike VI. Weird that it does so much damage...

    [Video] Prowler walkthrough

    Yeah. I didn't want to complicate the issue too much with details especially since erkul doesn't post weapon temps and Hardpoint hasn't listed the Prowler and its new weapons yet. But to that point: The Deadbolts do crappy damage. If you want the deep hull penetration of cannons the C-778 is...

    [Video] Prowler walkthrough

    Some great test footage: View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VoEyYPpFrmM&t=329s Observations: 1) The ship keeps warning of overheating. Though the warning is that the engines are too hot, IIUC the entire ship uses the same heat budget and it is the peculiar weapons aboard that are making...

    [Video] Prowler walkthrough

    I have to say I love this ship, and the vids of it in combat say it can manage as well as a Vanguard. However, if you intend to do what this ship is designed for, drop a lot of marines for FPS play; I would point out that the Sentinel frame combined with the Hoplite package is a better choice...

    [Video] Prowler walkthrough

    Very nice review. Beautiful ship! Reminds instantly of the MV-22 Osprey, which a buddy of mine tels be is a real kick to fly. I will own that I am disappointed that they didn't deliver on the components room. We were told there was going to be something special there, and I was hoping for a...

    Overclocking

    Do you get what the ability to quickly QDrive jump again and again yields to the player? This is a huge big deal on the battlefield and even affects what you enable during stealth. Pardon me, but WTF people don’t get this?

    Overclocking

    Thats what I’m asking. Can you do that?

    Overclocking

    Yeah. That especially appeals to those like myself who harp on trigger control. The ballistic gattlings all carry a lot of ammo so if you’re careful, it should nearly always outlast a battle. The more damage a weapon does, the more enhanced performance overclocking should provide, so it’s hard...

    Overclocking

    So when you overclock a Q Drive, do you have a choice which stat to enhance: travel speed, efficiency or cooldown and spooling time? I’m very curious about optimizing the last of these and microjumping like a bunny.

    Why was it the guy in the vid had so much trouble locking on the Arrow?

    Overclocking

    I read something the other day where it sounded like the player was overclocking his guns. I was unaware that is in game. Who is doing this and what can you tell us about it? Specifically, which components can/cannot be overclocked? How do you repair overclocked items after use? Can you...

    The white armor on the security forces in the 890 mission looked to be heavy. And for myself, I would always choose light legs. I’m a scavenger. And we should be able to sell the stuff we pick up in beta, yes?

    135k aUEC/hour killing bad guys

    To save changes to a ship like your loadout so that you get it back if it’s destroyed, just leave it on a pad and call another ship. When the system stows your ship it will store the current configuration. It might also then store the weapons in the racks. Certainly it’s worth trying. If you...

    Padawan Pilot

    She's not interested in cargo. She wants to be able to carry a box or two and that is it. I always suggest the Sentinel, but I think she's liking the 325A especially because of the speed. I watched a vid on the customization and was unimpressed in that they're all packages, and you can't...

    Roadmap shows 3.9 90% complete

    I'm not excited about this patch the way I usually am, probably because the prison gameplay doesn't interest me. I hope they spice it up with some surprises. Seems to me they could do something like release the X1 gav bikes without prior notice and kill any objections over the ho-hum patch value.

    CIG is not going to do anything about it. When Cris explained how they would be either imposing a ceiling or robbing accounts of those who use exploits, he said "those wealthy players who have billions". This is still a grind to make millions, and nothing like what Chris was talking about. It...
