This is a common issue with “infinite games” that have no stated goals. My observation is that players who get that the process is the goal, tend to do well, while those that don’t tend to grind until disrupted and then rage-quit. It’s then all the game’s fault. It’s not the game’s fault. The...

I was under the impression they were all in the same instance. There was a label at one point marking the simulation as “500 players”.

What do you get with 1,000 players? One thing you can get is multiple ships, each twenty times the size of a bunker. https://youtube.com/shorts/DayOkCLK6g4?si=XFiIKX-seE9SoRLz

Amidst all the fanfare concerning the rage-quitting over MM, is the real news about server meshing. Yeah, there was news of this some months ago, but that was 100 players. This is 1,000 players. This is the real news that doesn’t deserve to be set aside while the tantrums get attention. News...

I’m curious what you think caused the exodus from Eve. I think it was when players learned that the most potent force in their universe was betrayal. The largest and most powerful orgs were all undone by their own people, rendering service to others useless, pointless and counterproductive...

I’m curious what others think. I know Avenger believes pirate fighters the hands down winner in every contest they create (which arguably should be the case), but I have to wonder what percent of such contests are against fully crewed ships? Most multies are still being flown solo. So what...

I think it’s 2S4 plus 4S3. Very slight upgrade from the MSR and 400i.

The spviewer has a really nice detection calculator that made me rethink the entire function of a deep penetration team working in Vanduul space. Instead of looking at how much damage it might do, I looked at the minimum Human Resources needed to be effective, flying 3 Eclipse off a Liberator. I...

So continuing to tinker with the spviewer, turns out the twin S5 gun turrets on the Redeemer are also S5 turrets. So according to this unverified story, you can currently put the biggest, baddest turrets on the top of the Vanguard. The twin AD5B guns do much more damage than the HH turrets— over...

I think ultimately, getting players to man turrets is getting players to play together. If two guys enjoy playing side by side, well now the turret gunner has real guns compared to the pair of S2 that made him wonder why he wasn’t in another ship. They gave turrets better capacitors and made it...

Agreed but if I know Favreau, what he’s after is something that adds tastefully to the legacy that fans will really cherish. The story is about Mando and Grogu, and he won’t detract from that, but if the original crew somehow impacted them and saved them, or otherwise have a serious moment...

The reviewers don’t know how involved these characters would be. For now it seems on hold because Harrison Ford is not cooperating. The conjecture is whether he’s been put off by the flop of the last Indy film. He’s getting old and his recent experience was he worked hard for what became a...

This is a good reason to post the spviewer link. Note that this fit out calculator gives the actual size of various turrets. So the manned turrets in the Hammerhead are the same S5 turret size found on the Vanguard. Theoretically, right now you could place the 4S4 manned turret from a...

If this is true, it’s a huge, big deal. View: https://youtu.be/ZsD05dnrnQk?si=L0Y5PnHTG968B2hR

No, it’s not. No one thought that way during the 14 pages I defended Ahsoka. You want to be known for censoring open discussion? Is that the hill to die on? WTF did you come here to poison the well for? Trying to prove you can control people? Are you going to celebrate that you cancelled a...

Can we do this? Can we just have a civil discussion about Jon Favreau trying to save Star Wars by bringing back the original characters, or does someone need to come and object for personal reasons? View: https://youtu.be/uCr42bvg_nQ?si=ynEdPluiDExbrSpe

People are so angry. I just have to shake my head. What did CIG say about this ship before anyone bought it? We were told it would be fragile but it has four times the hull and five times the shields of a Sentinel and it costs less! We were told it’s a multi crew ship but players are flying it...

What I’m wondering about in particular is that CIG has always listed the Terrapin scan as S2, yet this source says S3. Perhaps it is directional, and reaches S3 range with an S2 slot, because it is not scanning all directions at once? So I decided to check this viewer for the value of the...

It’s not just that $230M is an insane amount of money to spend, but in addition they spent on the order of $100M on marketing, and this was all AFTER Bob Iger instructed Kathleen Kennedy to cut back the costs of the project. People will recall, after the show tanked, Iger fired the entire...

It’s a copy of all the storyline theatrical vid from the game, start to finish—basically gives you the story of the game. I personally thought it intriguing. I think complaints that the story was boring or predictable were a bit harsh. I admit I am not the game connoisseur that others here are...
