Gravity bombs in space? Like that stupid Star Wars scene?

The only real issue with the Retaliator is the state of turret play right now.

Something with range. Eclipse, Harbinger or Retaliator. If you want more of a fighter, then the Harbinger. If you want to play with friends then I like the Retaliator. I hate the cockpit view from the Eclipse.

Apparently it is releasing in 3.9 after all.

Or flips around for braking.

M5As. And Attritions.

It has 4 S4's and 6 S3's in the image. Those are Revenants, not GT-220.

My earlier plan to pick up a Connie Andromeda to Redeemer CCU is now more justified. If it doesn't work out, I still have the Connie. If it does, then I am back to an all Aegis fleet.

Most of the mainstream MMO's are developed on proprietary systems, created just for the MMO.

At the time, when I got into Star Citizen, I was running QA for Daz 3D who was branching out into game assets and has assets, under the Tafi brand, for gaming assets. So yes, I was doing seriouos research at the time. :) Unlike CryEngine, Unity is specifically designed for MMO, the network code...

UnReal was impressive 5 years ago, not quite this impressive, but very impressive. When I first looked into Star Citizen I realized, immediately, that the CryEngine was the wrong engine for the game and Unity or Unreal was a much better choice.

Don't forget you aren't going to have to haul gas.

One other point in the Starfarer's favor. Take a couple of Starfarers equipped for fuel, one or two equipped for cargo and a pair of Vulcans and you have a FARP capable of supporting a few squadrons of Vanguards and Retaliators. The Cargo bay in the C2 is not as well set up for the cargo role in...

I still see the Starfarer as a momey maker, however I can't stand the cockpit view or the interior. On the plus side it should be able to carry all your vehicles at once and when equipped with cargo pods rivals the Hull C for cargo capacity. Further if you are going to crew it you might as well...

But I already have a Retaliator, and I belong to Test so crew and escorts shouldn't be an issue.

There are two ways to accomplish a fire them all at once, from a practical point of view. 1. The ship, not the seeker head needs to see the target and the data is passed to the missile. 2. Staggered time for the missiles to light their engines. Combine the two and the Retaliator should be able...

I never saw anywhere that ballistics were to completely ignore shields, just that they would have better shield penetration. A weapon that ignores shields throws game balance out the window. Why would you ever use a weapon that doesn't ignore shields, when there is one that does? Especially...

No. For example, the M70 is a slow firing weapon with a much smaller magazine compared to the M16 or M249. The M70 has a lower distribution rate in the US Army than the M249 but each serve their purpose. Again, just because a weapon exists, that does not mean it is, or should be, equal or...

The round may be more massive, but it is also larger and slower. These factors lower penetration in the real world. The larger round gives the shields more surface area to slow. The lower velocity gives the shields more time to slow the eound. Just because a weapon exists that doesn't mean it...

Where are you seeing the strife is designed to ignore shields?
