Well, yeah. I think few made the point that we'd get the things promised more reliably, tho as I said at the time, for that to work they'd need to adjust their promises to their actual velocity. They wouldn't really be 'moved around', they'd still be working on the same feature they've been...

Well, with the amount and size of missiles an Ares has, I think it'll do enough damage thrice over to decimate Hull C. And sure, the Ares pilot doesn't really gain anything from it, but griefers rarely seek loot. Only destruction.

Yeah, I was contemplating on mentioning that. Could be they're also moving the people working on these features to the team working on 3.9, which would probably be the logical choice. Then they'll move few other people to work on 4.0 and join the team working on 3.8 when they start working on...

Yeah, which then means that Ares owners are going to be a bit disappointed. It's not a capital ship hunter, the Ion couldn't really even take out Large ships (Assuming they're using Sure Stop, their shields regen faster than Ion does damage. Those shields have no regen delay.) Then again, if...

Yeah, but even if you're on pip, they might just make a slight course alteration causing you to miss. Besides, anything better shielded than a Drake Buccaneer / Anvil Hornet F7C, and you'll need 2 hits within 20 seconds to damage them. Whereas if you had a ballistic weapon, you'd at least do 50%...

Ares is specifically meant to fight against larger ships. If you try to use a laser cannon with 2k dps to take down shields with 774521hp that regen 7k hpps with regen delay of 0s, you're going to have a bad time regardless of what range you do it at. If you get up close and personal with a gun...

Okey, so I was looking at the roadmap today. Staggered development would mean that 3.9 is halfway done, they've worked on it for 3 months, and they got 3 months to go. However, what I find kinda odd, is that there seems to be little to no progress on it. What's more, the cards that have...

I'll be there. Randomly starting "NOOO DON'T DO THAT" bandwagon in chat. With no indication as to what "that" is. Hmm... well, my first advice would've been to wait until you can get a mobo with DDR5 ram and PCIe5 slots sometime next year (and maybe they'd release next gen CPU architecture as...

Well, all the gatling rounds that miss are just ~60dmg wasted. Every Laser cannon round that misses is ~2750dmg wasted. If you want to take out small targets, I think firstly, ballistics is the way to go, and secondly, gatling. Saturate area and eventually that nimble ship will lose a thruster...

Ehh, either you can't swap that S7 laser cannon out and the ship will be kinda underwhelming, OR you can swap it out for S7 distortion scattergun, and the ship will be imba af. Seems to me someone ends up disappointed in anycase, whether they're looking up or down the barrel I can't say. Kinda...

Hmm, just happened upon this old Ship Shape for Hull C. Rather than all the earlier concept pictures with those whatever boxes, we actually know things about these, and since the video showed such good angel, we can do some math. At first glance, it would seem like the ship is carrying 5*3*8...

Yeah, I've been wondering about those buybacks as well. Got one that I'd rather get back. No hurry tho, it's not going to fluctuate in price for at least the next 6 months. So I'm not that anxious about it.

I had forgotten about that video, but now that you mention it, yeah. Idris has been quite far along for a long while, tho during that video they were obviously very early implementations. And you're right, could very well be they're sitting on them. But hey, SQ42 will come out next year and the...

Yes. They die, police will investigate and nobody gets charged once they find out a wantonly open door was involved. I imagine it's the same in Canada?

Hmm, I had to go look. No, doesn't seem like it was discussed on the Ship Panel. However, it's been around since 2014 at least, seems like.

Well, I live at 61.5° N, it's capital offence to let snow indoors here. But I haven't been to Canada, no. 😅

I know that feeling. I can also neither confirm nor deny that I would be under an NDA doing or not doing work for a corporation that may or may not have replaced Chris Roberts with a realistic, human sized, next gen doppelgänger robot so the real Chris Roberts can get a head start on Star...

It's a semi-autonomous max 2 crew (min 0?) mining vessel from Greycat. I wonder if it'd be just "surprise" addition to SC once it's ready on SQ42. At least as a crewed vessel.

Okey, so Idris-M, Aegis Javelin are supposedly quite far in development on SQ42 side of things. Javelin is 60/70, Idris-M is 49/64. Of course, these are "only" the implementations for SQ42, so could be some functionality required for SC will be missing. However, all the heavy lifting should be...

My trade runs tend to go like this: Make money running random routes. Make lots of money with bigger hauls. Make LOTS of money with full hauls. Decide to mix it up a bit, go to a drug lab. Fill starfarer full of drugs. Go to GrimHex to sell. Sell some of them, shop inventory full. Switch server...
