😍 Thank God, this will make bullshit losses of cargo so much less worrisome.

Apparently the new damage and armor system will change up from our current DPS system according to what I've read on the various forums and reddit. I haven't seen the info people are quoting first hand though. But think about it like this: pair of 20mm autocannons might be putting more lead...

Yeah, Ares is super interesting. An Ion would be super great for slapping down the shields of larger cargo ships like the Hull C+, BMM, Starfarer, etc etc. If it's designed to damage Capital shields, it should pound Large ones real nice. Inferno also is super rad. Nothing says "power down and...

Thank jesus, spending 15 minutes in QT in smaller ships was a goddamn nightmare

Melt it for the pack, and then grab a Retaliator Bomber -> Nautilus CCU when they're around next 😎

Forum title "Defender of Olisar" would be easy and neat if you help destroy hypothetical pirate Idris attacking PO.

Playing in AC is also a bit different from the intended use of the Ares. Hitting a Gladius with a Combine at 1000m is going to be a shitton harder than a Idris at 8000m. For me I'm leaning towards Ion. Not as good in a 1v1 as the Inferno, but the longevity from no ammo reserves, higher shield...

I am heavy weapons guy....and this is my weapon. She is Inferno class Ares Starfighter and firing custom tooled cartridges at rate of 1900 rounds per minute. It costs 800,000 UEC to fire this gun....for 12 seconds.

I would caution against going off of current shield hp values and recharge rates, as they are going to probably change greatly once the new armor and physical damage is in. Plus standard blah blah game is WIP and balancing is more of a Beta thing blah blah blah

I doubt that (initially) you'll be able to swap weapons, the brochure heavily implied the "bespoke" weapons were locked in options. This also allows CIG to balance the ship and the weapon at the same time relative to other weapons, which have to be compared to every single ship that can mount...

I'll ram my Caterpillar into it as a distraction, or we can just open the bay doors and have people with the handheld mining lasers.

Gonna drop my Buccaneer for one of these, but gonna wait for the Q/A before deciding on pulling the trigger on the Ion or Inferno. Ion has great shieldbusting potential, so great for group play and has the advantages of ammo independence and more buffer tank. Stated to have more long range...

There's something very serene and pleasant about a cargo run that goes off without a hitch. It's surprisingly enjoyable to finally dock the Cat in station, power her down, and curse the fucking hangar designers at Levski and Hurston.

I felt a great disturbance in the verse.... as if a thousand Buccaneers, Hornets, and Gladiuses cried out in terror....and were suddenly silenced. Depending on stats, price, and size might upgrade the ole Buccaneer. I love the look of my Mercury so this would be a nice addition to the hangar.

Plus UEE probably wouldn't be too happy about all the blatant piracy and illegal stuff happening on a land claim in their turf. I don't think you need a land claim for non-UEE space anyway, since the land claim basically just, well claims the land and the UEE checks off on it's yours. If we...

Make a pirate base, park someones Kraken Privateer there and go to town raiding?

Can also fit in a Corsair, it's designed to carry a Rover.

You should have a CCU to the IAE version of the Cutlass/Cat/Hammerhead/Reclaimer in your hangar if you previously had a version of those ships. But yes, they are wholly separate variants. Identical, except for the skin. Which is a really obtuse way to have a skin imo.
