    POW 29 July - 4 August

    Have a good time! These weekly reminders are great you know. I just wish I had the time right now to participate in anything. Live has been intense, just the way I like it - except it cuts into game time. :like:

    Fresh Meat Incoming

    Welcome to TEST! If it's any consolation, I landed upside down and stuck to on the wall today at Lorville. Funny thing was that the ship didn't blow up.

    The Ballista makes me more excited for the Tonk!

    You can do try that but it's a specific use case. on the deck of a carrier might be more doable, assuming we can figure a way to get them onto the carrier. maybe the Hercules M2 @BUTUZ mentioned or the A2. Or maybe we can petition pressure coerce blackmail CIG for more things to do with...

    You can just claim the ship too,. It's a PITA for sure, but doesn't cost anything if you have the time. Small ships are unlikely to be very good at collecting fuel though, so plan your trip around the rest stops is a darn good idea. I have a Freelancer DUR, that seems to be able to...

    Aegis Event coming up in August in Germany

    I just have a question. What does it mean, when I log into my bank account, and there's a picture of a hand with its middle finger in the air?

    The Ballista makes me more excited for the Tonk!

    Thought just occurred to me. The Pioneer has some potential, but it's all external potential. It might need some duct tape and maybe some bailing wire during that kind of operation.

    One thing to add, something I always do nowadays. Do the initial setup in Arena Commander, in the single player free flight mode. That way nobody shoots you while you're trying to figure things out. Just... because Port Olisar.

    The Ballista makes me more excited for the Tonk!

    Can a Starfarer carry it? It's got a big cargo area, with a fairly wide ramp... And I thought I heard CIG talking about it but I have no idea where. BTW the list of ships that can carry a vehicle with these dimensions is going to be very short. These are big... big vehicles.

    It took me a little more than 3 hours to learn, because I went to Lorville too early, before I had figured it out. The advice @Radegast74 wrote is pretty much exactly what I did. I have crashed since, every single time has been at Lorville in a Prospector. Just take it slow. I don't know...

    Yep. It worked for me, and I found it totally by accident. Just don't try to learn to land with anything expensive aboard. @SoloFlyer You can land with your keyboard, even if you have a HOTAS too.

    Ballista as LTI token? You can upgrade it, right?

    It's an illustration. I have no idea what the price, value, or currency for insurance will be. Until CIG tell's us, nobody knows. But ships with LTI we don't have to care about the price of insurance in any currency. It's lifetime insurance. This I do know. CIG has 500 employees or so...

    Ballista as LTI token? You can upgrade it, right?

    Reminds me of a guy i used to know. He owned a collection agency, his motto was "It's a thrill to pay a bill"... no it's not. It's a thrill not to have the bill in the first place. Before you go trying to downplay the value of LTI, consider we don't know what the value of the insurance will...

    Ballista as LTI token? You can upgrade it, right?

    Well, why not get LTI if you can? One less thing to have to pay UEC for after you crash, or the game crashes, or someone decides to gank you while you're trying to land. And you might even get to pay less for the ship.

    My experience exactly... until I figured it out. Video kind of sums it up for me. This is what I figured out. Don't tap your ship, your shit will crash. I went to Cellin and practiced at the research outpost, figured out how to line up and land without looking down, then went to ArcCorp...

    No more Hercules A2, Orion, or Hull-E Upgrades

    That... has a certain ring to it... Selling bad neighbour insurance solutions might become a viable business in a year or two. Or 3. or something.

    Ballista as LTI token? You can upgrade it, right?

    Some upgrades you can select, but if you try to actually make the purchase, the system will give you the "Not today buddy" thing. In those cases, you have to wait, for lord knows how long. The alternative is melt and use the credit to get something else I suppose, but I don't have a lot of...

    A helicopter would actually be easier. We're landing like old VTOL airframes like the old Harrier. You can't look where you're going, you need to know where you are. It takes practice. I don't recommend practicing with a loaded cargo ship... you can lose a lot of money that way. At least I...
