I doubt that's reliable intel. Thus far CIG has always treated reactors, cooler, and such as 3:1 size jump, so as far as I can recall they have never put three of any component into a ship. They'd merely trade up in size. That said, I'd much rather have the flexibility of triple components...

I think it's going to depend greatly on how much hull the ship has. It carries 2 Large shield generators so can take some beating. If the hull is beefier than the HH, then I think it will have a place at whatever speed it offers. Like the HH, it could prove a great in system interdiction...

You know I'm an erkul addict. I own it. Here's the standard stealth loadout, components overclocked: https://www.erkul.games/loadout/RsdNeWzI Note I had to use a low draw stealth shield to keep power management balanced. Three FR-66 was too much, but that is with everything overclocked and...

The Lancer has the best range for a single explorer. If it looks too clean for you, throw used teashirts, pizza boxes and empty BEER BOTTLES around the cabin.

What's missing are the lateral acceleration stats, and these are what determine evasion most--strafe, slip through a turn, etc. It appears less than a dogfighter. Not sure how it compares to the Vanguard, Cutty and Lancer, but it ought to have lower lat acc. than any of these. It's really a...

The in atmo flight vid shows it handles very nicely, and it's top burn is 10% higher than the Lancer, Cutty and Vanguard. I may have a new favorite ride. It's interesting each reviewer I've seen thus far says it's their new favorite ship. I am dearly hoping it has a ~200 EM with all but an...

We don't have rotation and lateral acceleration figures for the MSR yet, so comparisons to other medium ships seem a bit early. It's quite possible it is as fast as a medium ship, but does not turn well (like the 600i and Carrack). That would end the comparison to medium ships like the Cutty...

I think it is a new Banu logo. Certainly it's not been around long.

I think the general notion of cap ships requires workbenches. The stated premise for the benches was that all components can be repaired by players if they have access to a bench. So inclusion of a bench is a big deal. I think thus far the only ships in game intended to have benches are the...

There listed Nov 26-27, is that a new manufacturer between AOPOA and Esperia?

Would be nice to see some other choices in the Lancer/Cutty category. I'm hoping for a Medium ship, more agile than the Cutty and intended for stealth.

Agreed, and what I was saying. If the knee slides down to connect with the foot, it's only a few inches taller than a person and can get in and out of ships for easy transport, then extend the leg and only then do you get the enhanced speed and maneuverability of an additional joint in the leg...

It is sexy. Do we still not have the speed and acceleration stats?

Certainly players have been hating on the Star G since the invention of quantanium. They rightly feel they're place in game was edged out. Would be cool if they did just as you said.

Ok so, my reading of what he is saying is that there’s been nothing changed in plans. There are still just the three types of detection: radar cross section (RCS, what the ping is designed around), EM and IR. Your ability to sense in all three is tied to the size radar you have, so if you’re in...

Having computer troubles so signed in frim my phone (which is a terrible pain in the butt) but I did note the thread and will jump in to digest what I can ASAP. Indeed, it is one of my chief interests in the game!

Maybe. Maybe not. Point is, you can build the suit so it’s 8’ tall and runs like a gazelle on the battlefield, and still be able to transport it and walk it through standard doorways.

I thik CIG has been pretty good with describing the capabilities of various ships. There have been disappointments afterward like changing the role of the StarG by adding in Qunatanium, but that was not really a disapppointment with the ship. CIG has been very clear the Ares is intended as a...

I think what he meant was, he wanted a flight, or table full of beers. Given an average table, I like him already.

Kill the Vanduul!!! Sons of Orion UNITE!! All the vermin deserve to die, Die, DIE after what they did in Orion! Kill them all!
