Nuke them from orbit, it's the only way to be sure. Best part about people being greedy enough to exploit now is that it has nothing but positive impact in the long run. To paraphrase Lord Farquad "Some of you may be banned, but that is a price I am willing to pay".

CS refers to physical cross section, what a traditional radar pulse would bounce off of or an optical system would observe. For IR and EM the subroutines are pretty much in place, visible and adjustable by player choices. I'll completely agree that there are lots of weirdness in the values if...

During a past show it was put out that the CS values were created by doing a simple 'voxelization' of the ship's profile. It is supposedly a dynamic value now, and 'should' represent physical size in the game. Since we can't see that value or how it's calculated experimentation is about the only...

Shadow, https://www.spviewer.eu/ - datamine of values, goes much deeper than erkul but is not a fitting tool. https://doctrine.substack.com - dont know if this guys thoughts are worthwhile yet; currently on a 'free subscription'. - This person made a clumsy video on the topic. View...

While there can be no doubt that the concept of LTI has been weaponized by CIG Marketing, it will still be a cost avoidance in game especially for those with larger ships/lots of ships. I'm happy to focus on cash-purchased ships having LTI, no matter how that eventually affects game mechanics...

I agree with you that the Combined Arms concept is the path they are on; we know that they have or have had military advisors in the studios helping them concept the gameplay and interactions. For an MMO that wants to be around for a long time after release, the depth this would bring if done...

Yeah, no. As of my response you joined 22 minutes ago, and immediately post looking for handouts with a question that doesn't make sense. If you're legit, spend some time in the Discord and learn how the game works. We're a friendly bunch :)

My opinion of the ship is that I love the interior, think they missed a trick on the exterior. Keeping it though, for the stated bonuses that it is supposed to have for scanning (and the holotable to do that with!). I haven't taken it out in 3.23 yet, but don't imagine that the MM changes did...

Been a fair few times I've wished the foresight had been there to stay with just 3 or 4. That list would be the Sentinel for it's future EW gameplay, the MSR for all that it should be bringing, and a competent medium explorer such as the 400i (although I still consider this slot unresolved due...

Breaking News! (and a good laugh!) The friend of mine mentioned in that post took about 30 seconds to upgrade his M2 to an Ironclad Assault for the Princely Sum of $5. I like the M2 for it's purpose but in his case the upgrade was a genuine steal.

Happening, announced in the announcement. I'm interested in the Mk II Ghost, personally. Want to see how they position it within the *stealth* ship collection.

Hey! I think it's awesome that they are introducing a target just in time for the Polaris torpedoes! 🤣

The chin turret is only moderately useful. You need a person in the gunner seat to make it worthwhile, so if you have a friend to fly with regularly then it helps. The turrets controlled by the co-pilot are also annoying. Last time I used them, had to choose between upper and lower, with the...

"Never Read the Comments". Never fails to amaze me how far some people's perceptions are from actual reality. I need a popcorn machine at work. As to the change itself... meh. Don't see any issue with this, it's NOT new to anyone paying attention, and both the game evolution and development...

10 years?? *counts back on fingers..* Congrats! Have yet another drink and may you launch many more shitposts.

Jared HAS been asking for a jalopy to collect and tinker on; he did again in SCL on Friday. Seems like could be what he's talking about.

Actually, I don't GAF if the respawn on the T3 beds stays or not. I've been using a C8R as a daily driver for a long time now because just having the ability to heal available is an incredible quality of life hack. Having respawn on T3 is like the whipped cream on a skillfully made mocha. What...

Personally, I think this is a good change and should probably be permanent in some form. The lethality of the gameplay combined with the effort involved with getting TO, or getting BACK to, that gameplay indicates that this change ought to be a quality of life improvement. Balance it with the...

I would NEVER deign to judge the glorious flying and fighting skills of a TEST pilot. But you gotta admit our skill bar is very low. Probably so we can reach it after falling down. Legitimately though, the main reasons have been covered. Server performance is better, there's been quite a lot...

You are correct sir.. The AI is better. ALSO, when flying at SCM speeds it is much harder to avoid incoming fire. The 'speed/agility tanking' that used to be the meta caught a shotgun blast to the face with the existing ship tuning in MM. I was able to finish Pirate Swarm in a stock F8C, with...
