Just got home and saw this.. awesome STUFF., Also, if you need help running through journalists, I think the 'rule-of-cool' pokey on the right wing of the Corsair would stack a fair few...

Well, since it's opinions you are asking for, TEST is the right place 🍺 Truth is, almost anything you hear will be opinions. Where scanning is concerned, and especially the 'Long Range Scanning' that some ships are supposed to be capable of, there isn't much in the way of solid information...

Feel like this is one of those areas of the game that you almost have to take on faith.. almost. The AI required for NPC's to fulfill useful roles on the ship is and has very much been in development, as it is needed for SQ42. 'Companion AI' for the player was even mentioned in one of the...

Yes, this is the nail in the coffin.. I'll stick with the Carrack as Exploration is how I intend to spend most of my limited game time. Having a large utility ship is appealing, but this one just moved to the 'aquire in game' category.

IIRC, this is not a hard boundary. In the same show where he gave this explanation, he also stated that there would eventually be a much wider variety including things like anti-fighter cannons and larger weapons. Edit: What they ACTUALLY decide to do remains to be seen. But the problem you...

Agreed.. can't think of any time they've downsized. The memory claims there is one but won't give up the details lol. And as you point out, the Size 5's and up are worthless against smaller ships, especially fighters. The Odyssey shares the same problem with it's weapon configuration. Yogi has...

Fair, in terms of risk for money can't disagree. I was more specifically referring to the long time since concept plus the long time till expected arrival. From the perspective of game engine mechanics though, I'm still going to hold that the Endeavor has the most programming required. Medical...

The base Endeavor is still at $350 because it's had no development since concept. The most positive thing they have said about it in any format is that it needs re-concepting to the metrics that exist in game now. John Crewe's face is meme-worthy when the Endeavor is brought up; but by the...

https://testsquadron.com/threads/iae-2952-faq-is-live-including-stock-limited-ship-sale-dates-and-times.20062/ This thread includes the table from CIG about which ships are on the quantity limited sales, and when. Polaris came off the list either last year, or the year before, don't remember...

Odyssey and Polaris should be straight up purchases.. (RIP wallet!!) The Phoenix is restricted stock, but in the past has been slower to sell, so your chances are good!

Nope. The Cutter doesn't fit into much of anything right now; I think the 890J is the sole exception at time of release.

Welcome! Active group on Discord just about all the time.. jump in on there, even if only to scream in agony as you crash yet again. They'll understand.

Thank you for pointing this out.. beat me to it :)

DOC you rocked it!! I tried for this one also; was stuck in a meeting for the first wave, was fractionally too slow for the second wave, and fell asleep by the third.

I'm not a fan of Drake (yeah, I know, shun the unbeliever.. ) but this ship is set for the game. It's going to be good at most of the things we have available to do now and in the near future. Think of it as a bigger, more capable, somewhat stodgier Cutlass. Actual scanning performance remains...

It's a much easier transit between the front and back than the MSR, and arguably even the Connies. Plenty of room in the back for a ROC; the landing gear seems a bit short so rougher terrain might be an issue. Other than the usual Drake detractors, first impression is that it is a...

Leaks are bad, info covered by NDA leaking is very bad.. the law doesn't care if it's a real spaceship or an internet spaceship, the contract is what matters. Zyloh persists in bringing a human perspective to his communication, and I appreciate that. I think he choose to express this because...

It's a sweet ship.. mine made a lot of auec when stealth worked, and nothing else looks quite like it. If CIG ever does release a non-intel-restricted-variation I'll happily throw money at it again.

Solid theorycrafting 😆 !! Serious, I agree with you, based on the very minimal information that has been gleaned so far. CIG has a violent aversion to ships that can genuinely perform well in a jack-of-all-trades role; personally I think they go overboard on that philosophy. As presented...

While avocado leaks create a desire to go medieval on the leakers.. As @CRISS9000 points out, there is some really important info missing here. On the basis of what has been mined, this doesn't offer anything to compete with either the Carrack or the Odyssey. It looks to me more like the...
