I call this formation "Filmatic scatter". You might have seen it being used in such films as "Every sci-fi movie ever".
Note the total lack of positioning per role, small ships in the back with no line of sight to the front, larger non-combat vessels in the front... but it looks good! And it's...
Ah, I was actually just watching a vid about this the other day. I don't play EVE, but I'm glad they're kind enough to provide us with all this entertainment.
Have also been in the receiving end of such betrayals in the past. I was in a top 5 faction in another game, one of our major officers...
So I was chatting with this one guy in SC last night. We started talking about orgs and I mentioned I've been in TEST pretty much since I started actively playing SC. So then he says "TEST huh? Those guys who are drunk all time but couldn't fly straight even when they are sober?"
Well, I took...
Welcome!
Ask you anything? Huh, sure:
An Aurora starting from 355, 677, 899 is flying along vector 5, 3, -6. There is a stationary idris at 1200, 900, 100. How many beers must the aurora pilot consume in order to crash into the idris?
Brevity is not a secret code. It's an agreed upon list of terms with exact meanings to shorten and clarify communications (for combat purposes). Without brevity, that video would've been much longer, there was significantly more information passed around than just "there's a bad guy, shoot him...
I think we might need to also add few words more suitable for futuristic space fights, don't think the original US brevity covers those situations very well.
In any case, putting the brevity up on the page somewhere would most definitely help with those of us who haven't served in US military...
I'm personally going with Taurus. I figure it has enough cargo space to be making profits out of even the cheaper goods which have smaller margings. Or, that's what I'm guessing anyways. The thing I especially like about Taurus, is that it supposedly has a lot of upgradeability. More so than a...
Ah, I see. Still, it seems those manouvering thrusters are 100% effective, since the ships don't drift up or down. I guess that's just very futuristic then :D
Guickly scanning the thread, didn't see anyone else mention gravity yet. This was really my main concern in the demonstration, there was no kinda gravity whatsoever, the ships just stuck to air and spun around looking silly. I mean, that constellation landing in the beginning, you could...
I got constellation Taurus, because:
A. It was way cheaper than the other models
B. Afaik, we're able to customize the ships extensively in the game, probably even turn Taurus to Andromeda etc as long as you got the hull. I'm pretty sure I heard somewhere that you could even swap out parts like...
