They also marketed the Eclipse as a First Strike weapon, to soften up a Capital Ship, and the Polaris as a Capital Combat ship that could go toe to toe with the Idris. If you are using capital ship weapons, Size 7, 8, 9 and 10, to weaken the shields why not just keep using those to finish the...

After today's IAE video, I'm not sure the Polaris, my Retaliator or my Eclipse have any real use in the current plans for how th egame is supposed to work. This is especially true of the Polaris since a capital ship isn't, by definition, a support ship. Instead of torpedoes being first strike...

And the Freelancer MIS just let me replace the Sabre in my chain to the Zeus MR, to save an extra $5.

If I really need to carry cargo, I have a Liberator (with an M2 loaner), but I don't see cargo as a focus. The reason, for me, for Tali Cargo Modules would be to fill the gap between the Cutlass Blue/Zeus Mk II MR and the Liberator. Mostly involving moving my crap from one location to another...

We're supposed to buy in on the concept of a ship, not the numbers. My Vanguard is supposed to be capable of multiple jumps without refueling according to the concept. At a minimum that means Stanton to Nyx or Castra without needing to stop in Pyro.

I grabbed the Eclipse CCU and turned my Scoundrel Pack MSR into a Redeemer. (I really hate the cargo loading mechanic, especially with the MSR.) I guess I'll pickup the cargo modules for the Tali at ILW to handle the mid range moving of things.

It is temporary as they figure out how far they want each size and type of ship to go on a tank of gas. Once they have the basics down, they will adjust the individual drives and ships. (Or at least that is how I would do it. One parameter at a time.) In the past they have changed multiple...

It shouldn't be all that expensive. Cheaper fuel means more commerce, more traveling around. It makes small ships economical. If fuel is "fekin expensive" then only big ships would exist and passenger transport would be the key profession.

Carrier based craft were not supposed to have the range for Pyro. Most small ships were not supposed to be able to even cross Stanton. The lack of range for small ships was the selling point of the Liberator. The lack of range for small fighters was the selling point of the Vanguard. The...

Did anyone really expect anything different? I also expect a ship sale with longer range ships with the release of 4.0. Pyro is behind a pay wall, you can't really experience it in a starter ship.

If you don't include November at all this year is trending to finish behind 2020. With a great IAE they will beat 2020, but that is still a big loss compared to 21, 22 and 23.

My F7c Mk II is my only small ship that can run box missions. Otherwise I'll have to run box missions in my Cutlass Blue. :) Especially since I'm seriously considering converting my MSR to a Redeemer.

"It's 106 miles to Chicago, we've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses."

The only thing I can think of, which would make up the funding loss for this year, is to sell the RSI Pegasus to backers. No, I don't think they will but it would sell like hotcakes.

As a bounty hunter (intended role) Pyro shouldn't be a healthy place for me to be. Given that I would prefer to avoid it without a huge reward for the risk. Unfortunately since they decided to leave Hadrian off the list of initial planets, Pyro is the (Unintentional?) economic center of the...

I personally like these, but I can't fit them in my house. (I'd need 2 in the same room.) https://imperatorworks.com/ I went to IKEA, picked up a 5' long butcherblock desk top and 4 legs. Got 2 pieces of wire management racks, a pair of joystick mounts, a headphones hook and a coaster for the...

See my response to @Shadow Reaper on log out or escape. The short answer is no. The pods will be used to bring in live bounties, regardless if they are NPC or PC.

There was a suggestion, by CIG, that if you were captured, you could either wait for the pod to be delivered, or accept the capture and skip to the prison sentence (similar to waiting for medical rescue or respawning in the hospital). The person in the pod would be switched to an NPC so the...

Thanks to those that came before me, to those that came after me and a special thanks to those that served with me.

II don't have a Polaris. I don't want a Polaris. I don't care enough to argue about it.
