Chris Roberts has said more than once that UEE ships do not have a self destruct. Vanduul ships have a self destruct, but humans do not kill themselves willingly, and if you think you will blow up the ship to stop someone boarding it, you will be disappointed to find that is not an option...

Has anyone ever said officially there will be a way to lockbreak, other than blowing up the door? same with ship access. Is there going to be a way to circumvent personal permissions and take command of ships without owner permission? Seems that would be less necessary for boarding, since the...

I've been through several hurricanes, latest including Sandy the eye of which passed right over my house, and I know from experience the reports are true--the flooding afterward is always more dangerous than the high winds. The reason is primarily that people are smart enough to get out of 80...

Prayers for you guys. . .

. . .but I got a box that goes BOOM! that says all doors are open to me.

Is there a way to put the Ghost Void armor on the S-Hornet? If you buy the S-Hornet frame, what can you not do with it by swapping out components that you can do with another Hornet? If you buy something like the Tracker to S-Hornet upgrade, so you lose the Tracker turret? If you buy the...

Ah but we already know Montoya has 6 Javelins hid out back behind his house. Shhh! Don't tell anyone!

So far as I am aware, there is no shortage of ships of any sort. I would focus on purchasing ships that will be in game ASAP. Purchasing ships that won't be released for a coupe years let is probably not going to be as satisfying in the short term.

This is true, but with exceptions. It is objectively true they can add people to work on more ships at once, for example. Right now, there is no hope to have all the ships flyable in 2 years, and most of the ships offered and paid for are never going to be ready by Beta. That is something...

I think that was a good analysis, and good guesses as to how the various community components will respond. Certainly there was too much to lose and too little to gain by doing a live demo. If it were me, I would make a very public explanation of how I am hiring at least 3 more workers for...

This would be a kick to fly with 6X S4 ballistic cannon on the nose, and all those glorious S3 missiles; if you could point the ship like a fighter. Instead it is going to handle like a garbage scow. 4XS2 main propulsion sucks. This thing is the mass of a Tally, and the Tally has 2XS5 pushing...

Yeah, white with pink trim and a mural with care-bears dancing around around the loading area.

Confirmed you will be able to buy ships with aUEC by alpha 3.1: View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qzN6L3W0kxo

Can't help but wonder if the drilling rig on the Prospector works as a weapon too. If it did, that just looks like incredible power. I don't think there are any other continuous beam weapons in game. Imagine several of those things as point defense weapons. . .ouch!

<<there's a few parts where the players are inside ships flying in the atmosphere and tilted almost 90° to the ground with doors open, but the player inside just sticks to the floor of the ship instead of falling out.>> The way the local physics works for all ships is, they have their own...

He is doing something. He is peeing himself. That is a Banu. Banu are slavers. If you are out prospecting by yourself, and you meet a Banu, the proper tactic is to soil yourself so they don't want to keep you. No one wants an incontinent slave.

I think people don't realize what the Max and the Hull C will be like unloaded. The C is a pretty cool ship when not weighed down with so much cargo. Indeed it will be enlightening to see how fast the cargo haulers go when unburdened. If the C can accept an external missile pod it could like...

I don't think they extended the cargo past what it was originally intended, 33 units. I think the last version did not have that kind of space and they wanted that much. The Lancer carries nearly twice as much and the Lancer Max carries almost 4X as much. And the Lancer still has the bigger...

I think one of the reasons the Connie was done so early is it is intended to be like Serenity and the Millenium Falcon. It will be interesting to see if the BMM is fast enough to compete in the same mission space, and who knows what is with the 600 series? We find out tomorrow?
