25-50 years since the late 40s. Mobile solutions? USS Nautilus (SSN-571) was launched in 1954 and we've been using fission for mobility ever since. Fission is fine for mobility, as long as the thing you're moving is big enough. For smaller options see NEPA and ANP. Programs that were...

Nothing. What happens outside the game isn't about CIG. They have no control, that is a matter for law enforcement.

It seemed closer in 1989 when they claimed to have achieved cold fusion.

We've been hearing about nuclear fusion as a power source since the late 40's (Which is well before my time.) It is always just around the corner. There is only one stable fusion reactor in the entire solar system, and to call it stable just means it isn't likely to explode in the near future...

Ah. Just a thought but my guess is the Hawk and the Stalker and the Blue and MR are pairs in tier 1 and tier 2 bounty hunting.

You have to be linked for that function. Follow the directions for hangar link.

Intersting, an MR without an Avenger Stalker or Hawk. May I ask why no Bounty Profession starter?

I'm not interested in the Legionnaire. We have Hawks for Carrier fighters but the Sabres or Hornet replacements could be for that as well.

Thanks.

"Two is one. One is none." (Old pilot adage) "Never leave your wingman." (Top Gun) You should fly combat craft in pairs. One, possibly both MSR might change we might need to change one to a Herc or Hull-C. Moving your base is a royal PITA. After a trip in an MSR, and two trips in an M-2 I...

My wife and I intend to play together. Her fleet is similar, other than the Eclipse, up to, and including the MSR. Always fly with a wingman. if I'm understanding your question correctly, For the multictrew ships the intent is to fly with crew, either us together or with additional players as...

I think, like Garman Humble, we're going to wind up taking most bounties on the ground, long term.

I still don't see much utility in a snare. Allowing a person to set waypoints, very prevalent in current navigation software, would render them pretty useless.

The Ares has a bigger gun and a large haul of size 3 missiles, plus can mount a couple of torps. The choice would depend on your target selection, what else you've got, your available crew, and aesthetics. I've had a Freelancer a couple of times, and hate both the view from the cockpit and...

The Hornet, right now, is a hell of a ship. It may have to do with a bug, or it could be that it is the intended differentiator for medium fighters. The straight line acceleration is unreal.

Thanks guys. What I'm seeing so far is not to worry about replacing the Sabre.

I was thinking Hornets instead of Sabres but, yes, a medium fighter might not really be needed. Thanks.

Yes, Bounty Hunting is the primary purpose. Thanks. The Vanguard has a Sentinel BUK, so it, the Hawk and the MR have EMP covered. The Blue and MR both have the Quantum Dampners so that seems covered. The Antares doesn't maneuver as well as a medium fighter, doesn't have more firepower than a...

If I can't land I can't hit the bar inside. :) If I need to sneak past something, I have the Eclipse, but neither the Eclipse nor the Sabre have a way to haul a prisoner. Put a prisoner in the cargo hold of a Hornet Ghost, or build a Ghost version of the Super Hornet might work though.
