I agree to much can be toxic to the community as a whole. Luckily it seems CIG is first making sure the game world is populated with NPC's both acting as pirates and as security forces and so the player population is but a small part of the overall game world. This should help pirates have...

Ya but the hype is real and I am finding myself digging the shape so far.

We have some from ships like the Aurora, Cutlass, and Avenger, then there is the Freelancer and its variants Hull A, Constellation and its variants, Mercery, Hull B and as you go bigger they go slower like the StarFarer, Hercules and Hull C/D/E

Indeed we are suckers for pretty spaceship graphics.

True, but then you couldn't have the epic StarWars battles with large ships slowly closing in on each other's firing range and swarms of fighters and bombers interacting with each other as well as the slow-moving capital ships. While it is unrealistic it does give lots of gameplay options and...

RSI marking hype over drive and I am loving it.

Wait I can't continue to chase you down and smother you in a manly embrace?

Ya I agree but it was done for game play reason to allow for fighters to catch larger ships and engage them.

Even this gets messy. There have been times where I am sure the player thought we where griefing/camping their corpse as they kept coming back and we kept killing them on sight. In truth, we were just protecting the second group that was trying to accomplish a difficult task without raising...

Ah yes, those braves souls are fun to hunt. They either attempt to run back to PO or fly at top speed as some sort of javelin contest.

Has anyone filled him in that failing is often all we ever achieve? That the backup for revenge might just be listening to the story of wreckage while drinking copious amounts of beer, then agreeing to go on some half baked revenge plot while too drunk to stand upright? If one does manage to...

It was and you are right. There is this subgroup within the Spectrum forums that seem to be fearful of PVP and any gameplay where they can be targeted by other players and are very vocal towards anything they perceive as being hostile to them that is not an NPC. And so at times, I read what...

And it is said you can't get blood out of a stone.

I agree I really look forward to some sort of landing aid on the HUD's. But there is a certain amount of satisfaction about knowing your ship's volume and sticking the landing entirely in 1st person. In which case the horizontal hangers are much easier than the vertical as you can fly...

Not sure if you are saying this is a bad thing and I should refrain from shooting first then justifying the satisfaction of a kill as some sort of honorable killing to increase my worldly wealth. But honestly, there is no profitability yet in-game for piracy outside of accepted unlawful...

Wait do you guys even know what grass is or is that a blue screen?

That's the issue they already said they are not going to pivot the development staff working on SQ42 to the PU as they will start working on Ep2. I just hope that the cannibalized resources will return to the PU and not remain working on SQ42 until it dries up.

It looks like its about ready to prey on the Caterpillar.

It is a bit under-gunned but when you take it for its role as a strategic torpedo ship and add a 3 fighters for protection it becomes a huge risk to ships like the Idris (especially if they increase the torpedo count). I am Ok with the pilot not having control of any weapons, in fact, I...

Mostly sound advice. The only thing I would like to add is to use your mouse button to adjust your top speed amounts. In fact, you can easily just hold down the button mouse wheel the speed to almost zero and then you just move slowly. Make sure to not attempt landing in decoupled mode or...
