  1. Shadow Reaper

    Polaris weapons update/clarifacation

    The above chart does not seem to me reasonable at all. I would love it if the Retaliator suddenly had good cruise. It is the horrible cruise to date that has turned me off from it. I don't believe the stats here on the Starfarer or StarG. They make me think someone has published nonsense...

    I think CIG has backed away from the permadeath notion, as they realized they will lose players that way. There has been a lot of discussion as to what the penalty will be for dying, but I don't think it will be that. Longer spawn times the more you die might be the answer. There has also been...

    . . .in an SC vid the other day, that personal armor will not allow you to be in vacuum, but rather than you need a vacuum suit. Does anyone know if this is true? It would make sense that in order to board a ship, you need a docking collar unless you have protection form vacuum. No collar...

    Polaris weapons update/clarifacation

    I am thrilled with the size guns, but astonished they are putting 32 S3 anti-fighter missiles aboard. Arrester III S3 missiles have a 36 km range and 12 km tracking distance. Fighters might be safe from them if they maneuver hard, but little else. This ship is a BEAST.

    [Poll] Which ship is your favorite and why?

    I am more in love with the Polaris than I ever expected, despite that I have always loved Corvettes. I just hope they don't nerf the turrets. It does need to be its own, effective anti-fighter screen. What do you like in the way it looks? Prettiest ship yet. I am shocked they appear to have...

    Dead Fish, Rotten eggs, or buttered popcorn?

    When I was a kid, we had fun games that didn't involve any means of torture, whatsoever.

    Okay... Now I want my Vanguard Sentinel

    One hopes you can fit several NPC's in back, even if they have to stand. Someone said they think CIG is going to limit the number of PC's and NPC's that any given ship can carry so you might not be able to fit 6 standing, but it is worth finding out. In any case, imagine all the cash you can...

    Okay... Now I want my Vanguard Sentinel

    It does make for fascionating conjecture, what a single Warlock with half dozen PC's and NPC's in the back might do out at the pirate station circling Pyro VI. If you really have 300+ meters blast radius, you could stop everything there and have your guys blow hatches at least on those craft...

    Okay... Now I want my Vanguard Sentinel

    Yes. CIG is on record that boarding will be very difficult and only possible through team work. They have also said you can't board a ship with working thrusters, and the way to stop them is pulse them or spike them. Trouble is if the time down for most ships is on the order of ten seconds...

    Okay... Now I want my Vanguard Sentinel

    I wonder if bigger ships with larger computers go down for longer periods of time. As is I can't see how the time down is especially useful. You would still need to hoot up the ship you're after.
  12. Shadow Reaper

    Okay... Now I want my Vanguard Sentinel

    Wow. I never would have guessed the damage is so short term. You certainly can't plan to board a ship in the time that the thrusters are down and you can't board with them up, so either they need to be shot apart or a secondary disabling blow needs to be offered. I wonder can you extend the...

    Okay... Now I want my Vanguard Sentinel

    It would be really interesting if it does not penetrate all ships equally. If the 'puter in a Lancer or a Conny is safe at 200 meters from center, but a Hornet is not, that kind of thing can be used to build very complex attack dynamics and make the Warlock into a monster. Really getting a fine...

    Okay... Now I want my Vanguard Sentinel

    , Can you tell us, how much time does it take to charge the EMP Generator, what is the burst radius, does it affect all ships the same in the radius and how long until you and your victims' computers come back up after a blast? I have never seen any stats published about the Warlock.

    Okay... Now I want my Vanguard Sentinel

    That's what I'm hoping! Remember the old vid of the Lancer that gets hit by a waiting spike missile while navigating an asteroid field? CIG is taunting us to believe the best about this game!
  16. Shadow Reaper

    Okay... Now I want my Vanguard Sentinel

    That's a fair bet. Making EMP mines available would be a game changing dynamic. The only way I can see they could do it is restrict the pulse radius severely, and have it be inadequate for larger ships, but we'll see what we see. One thing you can be sure of is that the martial ability of...

    Okay... Now I want my Vanguard Sentinel

    Yes, I have wondered long and hard about the notion of "EMP Charges". I think most here know I intend to buy a Sentinel or two when they come out. I am thinking of buying a pair of Sentinels and four Hoplites. In any event, the Vanguard will be my main ride and the Sentinel my favorite, up...

    Please put this to rest for me (argument amongst friends)

    Sure it is. They turn at the same speed whenever horizontal V=0, is when the engine is off or if the plane is tied down. Given the flawed form of the question, both these are decent answers, but i think we can agree, there re no correct answers because of the flaws in the question.

    [idea] TEST Suggestions for SC

    I agree with the above and would note to you, there is a group of outsiders CIG goes to for active feedback and ideas. They have all signed NDA's. I believe I have heard BoredGamer claim to belong to such a group so apparently CIG hears him out and considers his recommendations. You might...

    Ship Loadouts: AEGIS Sabre

    It should be easy to check. Take them out. If you have three reactors installed in the Sabre and remove two of them, you should be able to tell really quickly if they make a real difference.
