Erkul's numbers are just for the placeholders that have been used for QA testing (and game capture, advertising, etc). John Crewe himself said that they were looking to up-gun the ship so it would have tools for larger vessels. The torpedoes are going to be expensive and powerful; using them...

I believe you, never did get into Elite even though it's in the collection. But what you are saying is that 90% of the playerbase opted out of whatever PvP looked like in that game. That's a pretty strong statement that it wasn't satisfying to a large portion of the players.

I think you are correct here Boss. I'm not a creative, so there may be other ways to manage or mitigate that are beyond my vision. But what I do well is analyze systems, and the game as-built is not going to reach the goals they claim to be aiming for.

Sharing this without completely endorsing his argument. He is very, very good at the small piece of the game he engages in, and it's not until late in the video that there is an acknowledgement of other gameplay outside of that. However, it is my opinion that he identifies the core problem...

With not one, but TWO P-8s. Hitting with the full FOMO on this one. Which won't keep me from buying it, we are in need of a good DMR in game and I'm not rich on time to farm them. As the package appears in your online hangar, you hear, ever so faintly, a trace of sinister laughter from your...

The ship with the lowest signatures overall is the Sabre Firebird; right now it sets the floor for stealth gameplay. However, none of the ship modules that affect signature have been re-adjusted to that reality yet i.e. a shield is a shield is a shield. A point worth making is that CIG has...

Yep!! It is so consistently bad that I've come to think of it as some kind of weird marketing ploy.

For reasons completely inexplicable in our universe, the ship matrix has never been accurate. Current patch information can be and is mined by the folks who maintain Erkul and Spviewer, with each tool having a slightly different focus. As to long term intent.. who tf knows. So many game...

I'm sorry. Here's a beer 🍺

Ummm.. where are you pulling those numbers from? Erkul. games reports: M50 280 SCM, 620 boosted, 1450 max Peregrine 267 SCM, 654 boosted, 1448 max (spviewer.eu , pulling from the same data, agrees with this and adds that the ship has 30G of forward acceleration on tap) Razor 280 SCM, 620...

It has no weapons; it's a dedicated racing ship. Also, per the release info and Erkul, it has 13 thrusters. 1 main and 12 maneuvering. It's got ridiculous thrust and boost capabilities. So no Interdiction ship or anything else useful beyond a really fast, expensive taxi that you'll look cool...

It's the most favoritist, power crept, really expensive but limited-gameplay, can't effectively pvp and might eventually be useless against armor single seat fighter in the game! What's not to like? I do use the ship for running missions, and another paint option is never a bad idea, but I do...

While I see your point, I have to respectfully disagree with you for this event. It's a popularity contest; the point of it is to engage the audience which is best done by showing the ships they actually like. Also, CIG is already manipulating it behind the scenes to improve the variation in...

Are you joshing us man? It's always had a bed. Other than the handling being jerked around in the various flight models, it's not changed since release. I love the look of the Peregrine, it's a pretty bird that would be fun to fly. But no weapons, as @Mudhawk pointed out, makes it a hard pass...

If this is life in your shard of the multiverse, then yes, it's worth it. You'll find it much more relaxed and friendly, although aesthetically might be very similar.

I've held on to one for a long time, but have 4 or 5 different CCU's on hand to upgrade with should it underperform in it's job. With the Radar and Scanner being combined into one unit (and a replaceable module) the hull itself is going to need to have bonuses to scanning to make keeping it...

This is like the worst reason ever. How much ARE they going for on the grey market?

No, no we don't! Have you MET the man, the myth, the legend whose ball/gown got swished by none other than Disco Lando himself? Who is so deep into gaming he actually gets PAID for it? Who is the only TESTie I've seen drink more than O'Lefty? (well, recently :drunk:) It's worth getting into...

This probably falls under Man Cave rules.. but does she know you're this handy around the place? And which corner is the new Apache going in?

It's all good.. honestly, as crappy as some of the early patches can be, I usually prefer to play in them for a couple of reasons. One is that I like messing around with the new stuff; hard to go back sometimes once a new quality of life feature is working. The other (and tbh main reason!) is...
