Couple thoughts to share. The Blade is useful if you want to specialize in ramming other fighter during jousting runs. That's what it is designed for and is good at. The Railen never had broad acceptance, but I'm betting CIG will introduce an explorer version upon release. They want to sell...

I'd love to see a Tevarin design attack boat, on par with the Redeemer, but with stealth, extended range, and six S7 torp launchers--6 salvos each. Crew of 3, single ventral quad S4 remote turret with under-armor, missile and REO position, 2 S4 fixed guns for the pilot. Fast, almost...

Yes, but the question remains, can you dock two Libs to an Idris? This totally goes to understanding how versatile the Idris truly is. If one idris can support two Libs, that makes a task force possible that we haven't thought of thus far. Note, the Lib does NOT have bunks for all the pilots...

I'm just curious if you could connect two Libs at once to an Idris. Heard something official sounding recently that said when you dock ships they will all quantum together.

I think we'll see a lot of weekly participation, but I would not be surprised to find some ships manned daily. Say a Jav wants 70 players. If you have 100 interested players that can all log into the ship with alts, that ship can stay on the frontier for weeks or months. You might only get 4...

One thing I wanted to mention last week but didn't is, many people buy lots of multi-player ships because they specifically want to Captain those ships. However, I think the cream is going to float to the top. If you decide you want to captain a large ship, like a Polaris, Idris or Jav, I...

I would love to see a great VR tutorial here for SC users. The thing that scares me about headsets is not being able to see the keyboard. Are you using the headset for everything: flying, FPS, etc.? certainly, even the best headsets are not crazy high when compared to a nice 49" screen, and...

Yes. Repeat after me, "stall/spin/crash/burn/die. The TEST way."

More than once now I've read bits by SC players saying they watched Maverick and loved it so much that they plan to buy a Gladius and learn hard flying. So here's the skinny by everyone's favorite drinker. View: https://youtu.be/KEwCne2vnFc

So, simplest is an idris carrying 1 Mantis and 2 Legionaires drops a ship from jump, and land 4 parties of 4 onto a large or cap ship, while keeping it neutralized with a couple turrets of Absolutions. Works for me. Big group though. Needs a huge payday.

It needs to be said that some people acquire many ships to play many roles, some in order to support the game, and some because they're under the mistaken impression that they are somehow "winning" by buying ships. Shades of consumerism peeking into the game. You can buy just the game package...

View: https://youtu.be/pU1I2gcnwoA I really like this level of gameplay. They're all experienced enough, and have enough training in common that they function like a team and communicate extremely well, but they didn't plan intensely nor demand too much from any one player. Laid back end of...

Kinda like eating grapefruit: i like it but don't know why.

I forgot to mention last week that the Vulture was already on erkul: https://www.erkul.games/loadout/qIGn5vVH

To be clear, I am all for cooperative play. I think all the power players in SC will be cooperative players working together. I think if you look at firepower, defense (hull and shield), maneuverability, etc, what you find is that CIG plans to make large cooperative play ships the most...

I'm disappointed we didn't see something like a Vanduul Marauder. It's too long since we've seen some Vanduul ships.

Given we now know the Scorpius has no cabin as originally thought, I can't see a reason to prefer it over a pair of Sabres, etc. I'd love to entertain opposing views. Why put two players in a ship they can't eat, sleep and poop in? What's the advantage? A pair of Sabres would seem to me...

It's certainly the stealthiest S2 sensor ship in game. It helps hugely that it has a third cooler. You don't need to turn the stealth switch on and in fact, that will raise your EM for no real gain, since with 3 coolers the IR is significantly lower than the EM even with the stealth switch...
