I know you prefer fixed, but the Warden rotates too slow to be effective like that. Did you ever set up to use gimbals? You sound like you'd be the perfect Sentinel pilot and that ship promises to be awesome in battle. When people learn what EM warfare is capable of they won't want to go...

https://robertsspaceindustries.com/ship-specs If you tell us what kind of roles you're most interested in I'm sure people will have great advice about ships. Please do bear in mind that you don't need to buy a big and expensive ship to have great fun on one. Lots of people here are looking...

"Glass Cannon" is what I was expecting. That will be fine if it has stealth going for it. If a Tana can sneak up and only appear on sensors in the last second or two, and unload 8 Jokers on target for just a second or two, it can completely immobilize most targets. You don't have to worry...

Roberts is on record that the NPC's won't be as effective as players in most roles so they probably won't be better at gunning than a real gunner. My guess is they will be better at things that require good communications. If a pilot wants to assign targets to turret positions and has a way to...

Some of the earlier description, and one that I think still survives in the official description, is that the Reliant sports special Xi'an armor. I've wondered what one might have to sacrifice to put Void Amour on it, or if what is there already has some stealth aspects. The fact that it...

Probably no matter the capabilities of any ship, any attacker will have gauged their ability to defeat their target presuming the worst--that it is well crewed. So my guess is on almost every occasion when you are attacked, the proper thing to do is run. Just because you have turrets does not...

You're free to design whatever sort of group you're interested in, but just to note; in general people follow people who provide a vision or goal, and can clearly explain how to reach that goal through a concrete plan. You don't need to follow their plan but if you're in a group that has such a...

I cannot for the life of me see why anyone would want one of these ships past tending a larger ship, and if you have to choose between two Argos and an Avenger to tend your Carrack, why would you pick the Argo? It needs to have lots of utility. Would be cool to see minelayer and minesweeper...

What is CIG policy on multiple accounts? If they don't object then it may well become a new standard to have two accounts, given how they have written moral consequences into the game.

The Outsiders should have Bengals we can steal. The thing really is to have a list of what groups are not targets, and if you want access to UEE space on most occasions, you can't be attacking the UEE.

Trade secret. I could tell you but I'd have to kill you. Naaaaaaa. . .not really. There are many ways each of which requires the game be constructed in very specific ways. Until we know the answers to very important questions, we can't say one approach would work over another. But for...

Anyone notice the Kore does not have a single S2 reactor as anticipated? It has a pair of S1's which is vastly better. You may for instance, lay in a low signature with an extra cooler for primary and a high output, uncooled model for secondary, and you would be very stealthy until the...

Doubtful. All ships are immune to attack when they are in a hangar, and it only stands to reason those that cannot be hangared will have similar protection under some similar circumstance. If orgs had to provide 100+ players in support 24/7 just to own a ship, what would be the point of that...

IMHO, the best sort of organizing you can do right now is simply "vision casting" what you'd like to do and see who has similar interests. I did this in the Privateering thread some weeks back and there was quite a healthy response which says to me people do like the idea of piracy but don't...

My problem with the Tlis hs lwys been they re so slow. They hve hlf the engine of the Conny nd lmost three times the mss. They hve the dsme engines s the Redeemer, nd more thn four times the mss. Retliros re very slow.

The missing letter ky workd for n hour lsrt night but is not working gin tody. nd severl other keys ren't working, includiing the delete. Must be ll the beer got the keybord sick.

I think CIG is on record that NPC's will be effective in boarding parties and turrets but not as effective as players. I think you want to have NPC's for defensive reasons, but when you pick the time and place of battle, you want players. For this reason attackers will always have some...

No spike missiles in service yet?

It's on order. Will be in next week.
