    Do we start theorycrafting about the idris now?

    It is in place in the cutlass when you land a Nox in it (I can't remember if that was an ATV or Bug Smashers.) One of the reasons I believe the entire Idiris thing was added before the ship is actually ready for use in game.

    Do we start theorycrafting about the idris now?

    So if we need more than one Idirs, it is fairly easy to get one. :)

    Do we start theorycrafting about the idris now?

    Interesting thought, if someone steals your ship, do you get to make an insurance claim and get another? That has serious potential for abuse, but also appears to be important for playability. For example I own an Idiris, and I leave it parked but forget to lock it, so Owl and a few others...

    Because the Rum is gone again.

    What is the difference between Hornets?

    The cells take up too much space. :) I would need to take someone with me to carry the ground vehicles I figure will be important for the better bounties. :) MISC and Aegis collaborated for the Freelancer MIS, perhaps I could throw the Stalker pods in the forward cargo hold of my Freelancer. :)...

    Do we start theorycrafting about the idris now?

    It didn't appear half ready for prime time. No landing markers for the landing pilots at the end of the fight They have been shown int he new cutlass for the Nox). The Rover falling through the ramp was a problem they fixed for a similar situation on Bug Smashers (Looks like the physics zones...

    What is the difference between Hornets?

    I am not saying you are wrong, but when it comes to facing AI I haven't seen a difference between the C and the CS (The two I have). Yes the readout says the emissions are lower on the CS, but the reaction appears to be the same, at the same ranges, in both AC and on the ICC/Com Sat missions. If...

    What is the difference between Hornets?

    If I could mount the Avenger Stalker pods in the Prowler, and carry a Dragonfly, it would be ideal for Bounty Hunters.

    Face tracking, my worries and issues.

    I was thinking ruining immersion viewing those that aren't using it. :) The Talkback engine is rather old, 2003. :) One product it was used in was called Mimic and is from 2003. A VR headset includes head tracking, in fact, if you have an NVIDIA card that is at least a GTX 660 you can use...

    I don't think I'll ever get over Macho Grande.

    What is the difference between Hornets?

    The current difference between the Hornet variants is the Super Hornet and the Hornet Wildfire come with the turrets that the others do not have stock and the Super Hornet has a co-pilot seat, plus the speed difference. The rest of the differences have no in game effects. The differences...

    Face tracking, my worries and issues.

    I am not seeing this as worthwhile. It only works if you are not using VR and can afford the bandwidth and buy/have the hardware. It also would damage the immersion of those viewing the characters not using FOIP. There are other technologies that would do just as well, some of them actually...

    Wouldn't the Starfarer be the best ship to haul beer? It was suggested I get one to haul Rum. :)

    The stupid thing is 3.0 and updating some webpages to have accurate ship stats is not related, why wait for 3.0 for that?

    Cargo Capacity is minimal, according to what was posted. The new Cutlass Black carries more. The Andromeda (and Phoenix if you want to stay luxury) pack a bigger punch, and carry more.

    Predictions for the 'Game Changing' Ship?

    I am looking for a Stealth Freelancer with the Avenger Stalker stasis pods in the forward cargo bay. Lockers and weapon racks in the cabin area. Now that is a game changer if you want to be a Bounty Hunter.

    Predictions for the 'Game Changing' Ship?

    I thought that was the actual purpose of the Cutlass Red.

    The FCC says mobile internet is good enough!

    As I understand it, it has something to do with tubes. Possibly including hamsters carrying packets of some kind. :slight_smile:
