    Theorycrafting the Carrack

    I will admit this is a ship I have been interested in, but have not bought yet because I do not really know what it will be capable of. I imagine its sensor capabilities and weapons load out will make it a good C&C ship, but I don't know, it could be released and only be good for exploration. I...

    Never know, for instance they buffed the Redeemer like there is no tomorrow . . .

    In a just world you are right, but I would wait till the game comes out before I stick to that. Who knows game may launch and the carrack will be so bad ass it wont matter how good a pilot you are, then they nerf it and we all will be wishing we bought a cat.

    That . . . . does make a lot of sense.

    I am tempted, I really am. But I don't know if the Cat would be better than the Carrack as a c&c vessel.

    Elite Dangerous. Is there a point?

    I still love Elite Dangerous, even though I have not been playing it much. Though I suppose I put enough time into it to get to Duke rank and get my Imperial Clipper . . . . I probably will play more when engineers comes out and I can make my pvp tank even more tanky.

    Fine! Be that way! Raptor Khan and AntiSqueaker for the little people, I will pay you! even though it will make me cry you can have a piece of the Mettan pie. All my ships have lti anyway, so why pay for repairs when I can just crash them and get new ones. More money for you.

    Piracy [In-Game Occupation] Let's raise the Black Flag! (TEST Piracy)

    That's very egalitarian! The way it worked back in the day was the crew got their wage and the captain/investors got the spoils. I gotta small fleet to upkeep man, I got to pay my laborers as LITTLE AS POSSIBLE!!!! . . . that's not true, I will give you benefits, lots of bandits, shore leave...

    I would like to see how the auto crew pay thing works in game. It would be good to know if I could rely on that thing to pay you folks or if I would have to put up with some union BS =(

    Piracy [In-Game Occupation] Let's raise the Black Flag! (TEST Piracy)

    I would say, out of all the starter ships the reliant is probably the most pirate-y . . ish. Decent speed, more cargo space than the others stater ships, almost as much as the hull-A really, and some firepower's there too. Now, keep in mind, it is a starter ship. I'm sure there will be a lot of...

    Piracy [In-Game Occupation] Let's raise the Black Flag! (TEST Piracy)

    Well, traditionally you need speed cargo and weapons to call something a pirate ship and there are a lot of ships that have that. I'm not too overwhelmed with the idea of more cutlasses and for all I care they can call them the space queens and I would probably be ok with it. I mean, really, why...

    Piracy [In-Game Occupation] Let's raise the Black Flag! (TEST Piracy)

    Well said Monster, well said. I agree. With all of the anti pirating groups out there it stands to reason that we will be targeted, big time. We are a big org here so it stands even more to reason that our drunk asses will be targeted even more so. I also love to win, I love to make money . . ...

    You ever see Black Sails, awesome show btw. There the pirates did what they wanted but were regulated by the woman who controlled Nassau's economy. The way I understand the concept of this all, is that you do what you want cuz a pirate is FREE!!!!!. How that works for standard operating...

    On top of that large groups can be hard to organize and tend to die due to drama. Mega blob aside, I do not think monsters idea of having a central base/area is a bad idea, I actually think it is a very good idea but considering the size and scope of this group it seems likely that we will be...

    Piracy [In-Game Occupation] Let's raise the Black Flag! (TEST Piracy)

    I would love to see that - it would be SUPER COOL and I am sure we will do it from time to time, but on a daily basis, I am not sharing my money with you all! No offense but I gotta make a living. I know some of us will be getting through the day to day by running with small crews that will...

    Piracy [In-Game Occupation] Let's raise the Black Flag! (TEST Piracy)

    Every Pirate and their grandmothers will be at Nix when the game starts, if only because of the publicity CIG has been throwing at it. So, yes it will probably be a good place to set up shop if we want to get a sort of black market thing going, but I have a feeling it will not be a very good...

    I go wherever the money is! I would love to sneak into high sec space and pull off some high profile heists. But who knows if that will even be possible. I will probably end up being the bilge scum that sticks to the trade lanes.

    Piracy [In-Game Occupation] Let's raise the Black Flag! (TEST Piracy)

    Well shit, who knows what will be good for us shady sorts when the game goes live but from what I have seen I would say that what you are going to want are fast ships with cargo capacity and enough firepower to kick tiny tim in the balls. If you are running in a wolf pack you may want to think...
