I think the moderation has gotten worse. I've never noticed so many on probation people before than in the last week.

Ewar could only mask certain types, no way it could block thermal. Nothing will be perfect to hide or detect. Jamming coms so they can't call for help and speed to catch up and intercept are going to be the most important things imo. We don't know yet if cargo will slow down speeds or just make...

I have a starfarer. Just how many fighters do you think it can refuel on one tank?

Honestly what is better than having a couple of connies? You've already got decent speed, you've got cargo room and deployable fighters that are faster than the connie itself. They've got more than enough firepower to be threatening and if you've got say 3 of them, then there ain't no trader...

Caterpillars have neglected the worst of pretty much all of the ships. Likely back of the queue because they aren't gonna be used in S42 as well.

I'm planning to do my pirating primarily in a Phoenix. I think having a pack of connies pop out, disable engines with merlins and start making demands would work quite well. On another note it really makes me wonder about the Genesis starliner. I wonder if perhaps it might be possible to load...

I thought they'd mentioned that everything but snub fighters can fit a jump drive, they just might not come stock on it. I'd hope for the 2nd (now 3rd) most expensive fighter they'd stick one on it.

I learned in planetside 2 how to ram fighters with a space whale. I should be ok. I'm just hoping they allow for possibly an ammo depot variant of the starfarer to resupply that as well. Although it's more likely they'l stick that in the Crucible to make them important during combat instead of...

As fun as it might be to blow things up, people are gonna run out of gas. I think I might bring my Starfarer instead of a combat ship.

I was really hoping they'd make it something more affordable like $200... then they said it was going to be as big as the reclaimer. I'm not shelling out $350 for one.

Batches of 50 are really low. However we can at least give the Phoenixes a purpose as space taxis to the party Idris

We'd planned on 5-6 but the insanity of the sale I thought for sure would mean we ended up with less. Honestly 2 should be enough to be the backbone of a fleet. Other orgs might have more, but it'l have to mean sacrificing a lot of escorts in order to crew them.

I like the luxury interior.... parts of it. The hot tub needs to go, as does the shower and the bar needs a lot of work. However they did mention something special for the Phoenix and 890 jump, and that was transporting VIPs. So you can shuttle around NPCs and that could very easily be...

Ben jumped in on a podcast today and answered some more stuff on the connie http://www.reddit.com/r/starcitizen/comments/2e8kjk/star_cast_qa_summarized/

I'd love to see the insurance claim on that one. "Um... the ship fell down some stairs"

A bit more than that. - The class 9 CIWS is going to be for both missiles and fighters. This means we have enough time in our likely inebriated states to get to stations and defend the ship before ramming somebody with it. The fact that it hits fighters alone, is going to be very powerful as...

Finally a real official response on the Phoenix and connies here https://forums.robertsspaceindustries.com/discussion/169288/phoenix-facts-aka-constellation-q-a

https://robertsspaceindustries.com/comm-link/transmission/13852-Galactic-Guide-Pyro I think you're forgetting how deathly afraid orgs have already been of spies, especially ones like Imperium. Other orgs have had witch hunts so bad that they have collapsed. The potential for eve level drama...

There isn't going to be selling of strategic assets, only the taking of them. And while it was a cool idea, it never could have happened. A large org would have put enough of their own guys on the inside to sabotage it before they attacked and took it. I think CIG realized this, and thats why...

Got some other ones people might want -Crewman -Support ship. Tanker, repairs, etc -Fleet command/ C&C -Roleplay -Escort. Not in the Phoenix sort of way, but ship escorts for haulers, traders and other people who might need a helping hand in the org. -Racing -Organization Defense. This would...
