    2.6 weapons

    From what I have gleaned from past CIG sources, it appears all maneuvering, propulsion, missiles and unmanned turrets (like on the Lancer and the chin gun on the Polaris), cannot be used when the computer aboard ship is down from EMP, distortion weapons or spike missiles. Since without...

    2.6 weapons

    Yeah, except you can't target any of the Lancer's weapons save the teeny turret when the 'puter is down from a spike missile. Best outfit that turret VERY carefully.

    2.6 weapons

    Has anyone noticed the 2.6 weapons changes? The DPS calculator shows greatly reduced weapons' speeds and several of the larger weapons now shoot further. The dynamics of this are striking. It used to be you could out-range others just by choosing specific weapons, but now many will not have...

    Am I setting myself up for failure on multi-crew? Not a bash post!

    The closest thing to the Firefly class is the Hull series, but the SC universe will be much more violent and Serenity could not survive here with no guns. If Mal were choosing a ship here I think he would pick a Carrack set up for transport, or a Banu Merchantman, but in either case he would...

    Need suggestions for next ship.

    CIG will carefully choose prices for NPCs that are whatever the market will bare, and probably allow us to have as many as we like. If I had to guess now, something like $2/month for a base level NPC, and $7 for a high quality one, would not be unreasonable. Eventually CIG must charge whatever...

    Need suggestions for next ship.

    I'm not sure what kind of play you are most interested in. If it is solo hauling with the Starfarer I would consider leaving some cash back to purchase whatever works best as escort, or you will spend all your time supplying ships and fuel to others. So for instance, if we find you need a...

    Next Gen controller for your dog-fighter?

    After Jessica Alba, there is just no reason to ever do another, and they are all doomed. DOOMED I say!

    Shive now ranks #16 in Star Marine! Can you do better?

    IMHO, the real skills to hone in FPS are not twitchy shooting type skills, but communication and cooperation skills. Those who dominate in the PU will be those who work well as a team. Of course, you want shooters like Shive on your team!

    Isn't this the geometry the Vanduul fly in?

    Oh, how nice of them! Isn't that one of the fleets that is temporarily holding Reclaimers, Carracks and Star G's for me? I think they may even have 1 of my 12 Vanguards.

    Bounty Hunting Combat Fighter

    What is the scan range like? Is there any indication whether that bird will be able to wear Void Armor? I am still thinking about a forward spotter to paint targets for the Polaris to splatter with those nasty missiles and torps. It comes with the S1 Starheart reactor that puts out 1100...

    Please turn off the animations

    <-----does snoopy happy dance THANK YOU! I do appreciate it. It is terribly taunting to be able to quickly skim posts for just a few seconds and then have the machine lock and I so much what to know how the folks like 2.6.

    New missiles

    Great analysis! Would love to see the same for the S2 missiles. They are faster and if you can carry enough of them, they might at times be worth the space. I would just like to note, the vast bulk of the damage from the Arrester III is supposed to be spike or distortion damage. They are not...

    New missiles

    You need to understand how each missile works to thwart it, and to know which missile to use in each situation. There are no shortcuts.The skill set for using missiles well is the same as doing scan and EM warfare. If you excel at this, you might consider the REO or Rear Equipment Officer seat...

    Every time I have tried to contact the mod, my machine has locked up before i can send. And really if you had a clue, you would not be trying to parent me.

    Please turn off the animations

    I have made several public attempts because my machine locks if I am here more than 20 seconds. Security software does not want me here.

    Please turn them off. No one using a work machine should be using this website so long as you are putting security risk into all our machines.

    Squadron 42 Maps

    Whatever the in game FPS is currently being called. The person who originally posted it called it "Squadron 42" but I think technically you are more correct. What does it say in your interface? I don't have the game installed. Won't run on my current 'puter.
