Okay so, whole new game. . .I gotta say I agree with many of the concerns about this, but I think if managed right, this is going to be terrific! Looks like it might fit in the Polaris bay. . .hmm.

Yup. I still want to know if it can swallow small fighters whole, and what happens if they then turn their weapson on the insides ot the Reclaimer. Seems there ought to be some way to mount some kind of distortion weapon inside the Reclaimer bay to neutralize a fighter and blow the cockpit...

My guess is CIG is fully aware of how things have gone in Eve. I'd bet many of them have played. If the risk is high, then few will bite, and fewer pirates will wait, and it may all turn into a nice dynamic. If only the rare player will haul outside UEE space, and only the rare pirates will wait...

I'm wondering how likely it is the Mantis sports a pair of S6 mounts and room for a boarding party. Yeah, CIG always wants to see cooperative gameplay, but if I were designing an interdictor, I'd want those elements along. A pair of S6 Condemnation Distortion Scatterguns are still listed as...

I don't see how we can guess a size for the thing, but I would not guess an interdiction generator would fit on a smallish bird. I would expect this to be at least the size of a Nautilus. The whole notion of dropping someone from quantum into a minefield does have an an appeal. I am of course...

That's a SW Marauder class corvette.

Well, if it's bigger. . .

A heavy fighter or fighter-bomber with side-by-side seating maybe?

If there weren't already a Drake Vulture, that kind of ship would be my guess. I think the Vulture is a very cool idea and prefer that over a lot of other vocations, but I don't think the Vulture was very popular on release and I can't imagine CIG adding to that area of the game when it isn't...

Well said.

My guess is it will fit the Idris, but probably not the Polaris. Depends if the Polaris grows at all during development.

Something like the 300i with robotic arms to grab stuff? I think it must have arms of some sort.

I'm glad we can respectfully disagree. Please allow me to add one note of context. The choice over Afghanistan is not whether war will be fought or not. It's not over whether there will be casualties. Afghanistan is not unique, but it is rare that like Somalia, they have never had anything...

I was working in Bergen County, NJ; just across the GWB from Manhattan. I grew up there. Most of the 8 million people who commute into the Big Apple each day come from Bergen. It's a very Manhattanite culture and literally everyone I know, knew someone who had been killed. I remember in the...

Yes well, in situations where the Corsair pilot would be tempted to fight, the Mercury pilot will want to exit the scene, and in the long run that could make the Mercury more survivable.

It is sad they restrained him at 6:30. . .but civilization must survive. Such extreme measures.

For the first time I understand the appeal. Not for me, but now I respect it. Extremely well done.

No, no no. Can't be. That's exactly what my baby niece used to say. She had a secret handshake, too.

Agreed. I think Naff hit it on the head. We don't even know what we don't know yet. One of the few things we do know is CIG is committed to the notion that the game be complex, and that the skills of each player are what drives the game, not the skills of a character. So we should expect the...
