    20 Teams Delivering for next patch

    I was glancing at the roadmap https://testsquadron.com/forums/general-discussion.7/post-thread and noted there is what seems an uncommon number of deliverables coming in July. 20 teams expecting a total of 238 deliverables. That sounds impressive but the Polaris is gone from the roadmap...

    Great VOIP tutorial

    Good tutorial. I'd love to see one just a cut above this, by someone who actually knows what this guy says he doesn't, recommeding specific settings on this, Discord and Voice Attack all combined that works out all the bugs. New players would flock to that and eventually a single standard...

    M1 Abrams vs Nova Tonk size comparison

    While we're on the issue of vehicles again, I'm curious if anyone else is impatient to get on the X1s. I just do not get why CIG has not released that entire line. It seems to me there would be very few changes from the Nox, and we'd have 3 more vehicles. Maybe I should become a whiner...

    M1 Abrams vs Nova Tonk size comparison

    True, and stranger still; we actually found out about this by accident. Bazookas were not very effective against the really big tanks. Shermans had to hit them in just the right spot at very close range. However, the killingest platform for killing any tank in WWII gets very little press in the...

    Is this thing on?

    Welcome, only you misunderstand. We don't say "is this thing on" here. We say "TESTing, 1, 2, 3". Means you buy the first round.

    M1 Abrams vs Nova Tonk size comparison

    Tonks exist in Mechwarrior as a bridge between smaller fodder vehicles and larger Mechs, based upon economics. Tonks are much cheaper than Mechs. Without Mechs (SC), Tonks become ship fodder instead of Mech fodder. However, massed tanks have enough power to kill a Mech. What you're...

    Pffft. You call that BIG? Mine's bigger than yours. Neener, neener, neeeener. View: https://youtu.be/IRsFc2gguEg

    I'm torn between a Redeemer and a Vanguard =/

    Note that there is some sort of module swapping update due in 3.14, so if that includes the hoped for Vanguard modules, they will go up in price next patch. Currently they're still maked as Battlefield Upgrade Kits (BUKs) but I think those include all the guns, etc, and the new expectation is...

    Just wandered in

    Six welcome posts in and no one has bought him a beer. Oh how the mighty have fallen.

    Figured out the shape of the stealth ship?

    Just released, the new 400 series!

    [Vid] Calling all devs touches on repair which is a huge game loop in the making!

    So awesome to have guys around who remember what was said 6 years ago!

    Figured out the shape of the stealth ship?

    Interesting to find reports stating they "know" the 400 series will compete with the Lancer and Cutlass, and other reports that they "know" the 400 will compete with the Connie and Corvair. Nice to see, no one has a clue!, but the bases are covered. Still hoping for an overgrown, sexy 300...

    I'm torn between a Redeemer and a Vanguard =/

    Well, they both carry about the same missile load. IIRC, the Redeemer carries 20 S2 and the Vanguard 16S2. Not sure how many launchers the Redeemer has. Could be it can only launch 2 at a time. Could be at times the Vanguard has the missile advantage and it can carry S3 missiles. I don't...

    I'm torn between a Redeemer and a Vanguard =/

    The Redeemer is never going to be stealthy, and totally not useful for a solo pilot. It was designed for small to medium teams (small only if they do as rumored and remove the rear squad seating--which would suck.) You don't lose your investment if you swap to Sentinel, you just don't gain...

    I'm torn between a Redeemer and a Vanguard =/

    The Redeemer should go up about $45, but that could be a year from now. In the meantime, enjoy what you fly. Look at the raw power of this thing, from 10 km to point blank range: https://www.erkul.games/loadout/m39KfNNt and now look at how invisible it can be while sending big missiles from...

    I'm torn between a Redeemer and a Vanguard =/

    Only the Sentinel has the stealth frame. Given it is the stealthiest ship in game, if you want to explore that dynamic, buy the Sentinel and the Hoppy and Harby modules.

    Figured out the shape of the stealth ship?

    I'm still daring to hope for an overgrown 300 meant for 3 person expeditions, including a med bay. Does anyone else feel this patch is meh. . . and it's the next one that's important, with radar and sensor updates, healing updates, hacking updates, module swapping! and the Taurus?

    Vanguard Warden Distortion Loadout

    Yes well, I get all that. The point remains however, that describing energy weapons as fast kill weapons is incorrect. If you're afraid of running out of ammo I'd just note the gattlings have a ton of ammo, and if you practice any trigger control you shouldn't run out. They kill targets much...

    Vanguard Warden Distortion Loadout

    To the original question, though I keep hearing the ATSV melts shields and then the ship comes down, the times to kill seem very long to me. Way past ten seconds minimum. I think ballistics have got to be killing much faster.
