Nooo. . .I'm pretty sure when it first announced they were specific that when the turret is forward it is pilot controlled. CIG knows it will be a huge success based solely upon the notion of more firepower than any other platform, no matter how badly it handles. I think it is planned to...

It's not ballistics v slower lasers. It's S1-4 are 1,400 m/s and S5 are 700 m/s. Total FUBAR. Lets all hope they'll go back to more reasonable and divergent stats on the weapons.

Unfortunately, I'm guessing the same as Montoya. I think if they fail to make the rotation rate low, they'll have troubles disenfranchising the other heavy fighters. I could be wrong but it feels like they have to nerf maneuverability such that it's back near where the Cutty is, and that is...

I was a fan of Hercules at the time and of Sorbo now. He's generally a great guy.

You should keep in mind that the AI is being designed such that there will be three different skill levels for NPC gunners, that the least of these should be more effective than AI blades, and the best NPC gunners should be less effective than PCs. So if the gun is consequential at all, you'll...

I don't think he said that exactly, but he did wear himself out expecting stuff like salvage to release on time. To be fair, marking two weeks work to get moist eyes does not ingratiate the masses nor give confidence over why salvage and refueling are so crazy late. Can't blame Morph for...

That is unfortunate, but since missiles and torps are used at distances greater than guns, perhaps it does not matter that much. Ballista would be vulnerable to fighters, but the fighters are very vulnerable to the Carrack manned turrets. What is "Terada"?

Wow. Great vid. Thanks for this. It actually appears there is room for a pair of Ballista side by side on top, though I'm uncertain whether you could enter the one on the starboard side or if the door ramp would not function. Certainly worth investigation. S7 torps are nasty, as are the S5...

Yes well, again to remind, I have never seen a Ballista atop a Carrack. I have mentioned this before, because even just one added to the firepower of a Carrack is a game changer, but I don't own a Carrack and in the months since I made the observation, I'm still not aware of anyone having done...

Yeah, I think we're just not connecting here. To be more clear, we're talking about leaving the Carrack hangar bay doors closed and parking on top of them. Players have found that you can do this with at least three ships (Arrows) at a time and the local gravity of the Carrack will hold them...

Look at it again and think about it. Both positions place the missiles facing directly forward along the Carrack's centerline. They could not be more centrally located. I think you must think I'm describing something other than what I'm thinking. What is not obvious is how to get a Ballista...

The remarkable thing about the Carrack that is not obvious at first glance is that several ships can be perched atop the closed hangar bay and will stay put during flight. For instance, three Arrows can be placed up there, turning the Carrack into a small carrier. There are lots of great vids...

https://starcitizen.tools/Category:Personal_armor https://starcitizen.tools/ADP Simplest to start is all Clarke Defense systems: Medium or heavy helmet, Heavy torso, Medium arms and Light legs. It is never wise to go stronger than light legs as they will slow you down and wear you out. Best...

Honorable Mention: I am still fascinated by the possibilities of the Carrack with 2 Ballista's added. One sitting atop the hangar bay, and one slid half way into the vehicle bay gives 4X Hellion VII torps is 400k+ alpha strike damage, plus 4X4 Scimitar V is 150k+ on each of 4 strikes. If when...

Even after my last disappointing analysis, I am still recommending that those who love this consider operating a Liberator and allowing players to bring 3 Eclipse, 12 M50 and 1 Lancer MIS and work as a strike group. If you really want to carry ships, that is 18 ships flying off your Lib, all...

Necro wizard!

Ask around for the combat flight training. TEST has some real pro mentors that can help you get on top of your game. Marcsand2 has just posted up about combat flight training this Friday. FYI, he has been flying combat a couple hours a day almost every day for more than half decade. There are...

The Idris is a Frigate. Next step smaller is the Polaris which is a Corvette. Next step smaller is the Perseus which is technically a gunboat. In WWII parlance it would be called a destroyer or "tin can", intended to hunt submarines. In today's parlance it would be called a "Missleboat"...
