    Theorycrafting / Question about medical gameplay and large battle logistics:

    There is a ton that CIG has not committed to yet so it's painfully difficult to theorycraft here, but IIUC, they have said NPCs will not respawn. You can heal them, but when they die they are dead and don't come back--NPCs really do suffer permadeath. And IMHO, NPCs may well become the single...

    What's the state of fighters?

    So borrow one. I'm sure people here in the forum have dozens of them they seldom fly. I doubt the flight rework is going to change the general characteristics of most ships. They're mostly flying as intended. Besides, I want to hear the stories of what happens when someone flies the...

    It's not just the Arrow. Switch in and out of landing mode and the bug may disappear.

    What's the state of fighters?

    Welcome back, Owl! Word is, current patch is kickin'! Go fly. Someone even said recently the Vanguards are fast, but he didn't explain what he meant.

    Sounds like you want a SuperHornet loaded for bear, and with the best shields you can get. However I do recommend looking into the Raven as an alternative. It looks pretty entertaining to me the way they fight, and it does open up some interesting gameplay against larger targets. You don't...

    What is your combat fighting style like? Do oyu like to dance around and avoid incoming, joust, or just point and shoot until something dies?

    I think it's intended as a specialized bomber. If you want to bomb terrestrial targets, seems the best choice.

    The One Ship Manufactuer you just can't stand

    No. The official word from CIG is this should be the most difficult task in the game, and Vanduul ships self-destruct, so your options will be very limited. Flying outlaw makes it even harder i think, but there should be a place for nice guy boarding parties.

    The One Ship Manufactuer you just can't stand

    It's a stealth boarding ship. You can drop peeps planetary if you like, but it is specialized to sneak up on unsuspecting craft, blast them with blinding distortion and deliver party favors. What's more fun that loaning ships off others? Seriously, that is a bargain.

    You got a break for buying early. The prices should go up. The earlier you commit to anything, the more you should save. Those guys who put pennies down years ago should have something more than bragging rights, and our thanks for that.

    My guess is very few will jump at the Electronic Warfare Officer role for the Sentinel. If you're a strategic thinker rather than a tactical dogfighter, the second seat in the Sentinel looks to me will be fabulous fun, and there is still a turret to man, so plenty of busy. Anyone who flies a...

    Not lovin' the new fighter. Still don't think we need to see more fighters, but a Sabre that weighs another 50% doesn't seem to me to have much going for it, and they didn't even try to sell it on its merits. What were those merits? you may ask. We don't know. Prowler is up $25. Could be worse.

    Something we need to do.

    I think that's true, but it really is a very different activity to make a vid for its own sake, and viding something else you're doing. What we're talking about is scripting something so the end product is of a finished video, that says we're way kewl and people wish they were us. Lets face...

    SALE HYPE! What are your fleet plans?

    Which of the Vanguards is that?

    Something we need to do.

    Very way kewl. Hey, I can imagine TEST doing seasonal vids like this only scripted and shot from a separate video craft. Anyone here a good video editor? So for example how many Vanguards could we gather for a strike team and post them not only leaving a jump point together, to actually...

    On top of the Expo Idris

    Was certainly worth trying to get in. Imagine if CIG had left the doors unlocked. Sovapid would be wearing legendary status right now. And what if he could have stollen it? That is full on "MYTHIC SHADOW WARRIOR, PLEASE TAKE MY SISTER, THE PIZZA AND ALL OF THE BEER!" status.

    Fighting at 7 km

    Yes, this is exactly as I suspected. This is why I think the Vanguards working together are going to become the standard strike platform for boarding in space. With a single Sentinel to fly point and confuse the target "oh, there's a Lancer coming in", a Harbinger or two and a Hoplite or two...
