I kinda want to try a cruiser, since for the most part, I think I've been sticking with more escorty style ships.

MikeJF posted:Yeah, basic Tier 5 is 9-console, and from there you upgrade to 10-console ships in the form of Fleet/Lockbox/Lobi/C-store ships. Or possibly summer/winter event ships, which are free once a year. All the new guys worrying about getting a ten console uber ship like the other cool goons have, you'll be able to pick up a Risian Corvette and/or a Risian Luxury Cruiser (details yet to be released) in a few weeks or a month. All you'll have to do is some bullshit one person race once every 20 hours, 25 times and the ship is yours.

Oh, and another question, as an engineer should I try to get a tier 5 battlecruiser warbird rather than the escorty ones?

Stay away from the Ha'apax though, that thing is a piece of poo poo. For PVP you'd probably want a lockbox cruiser like the Monbosh or the Galor rather than a warbird.

Reviewing is always disabled following a season launch, as new changes usually gently caress up old foundry missions pretty bad and they don't want the authors having their ratings slammed until they can go back and fix things.

You're likely better off with the Scimitar due to it being one of the best ships in the game for a variety of situations, but if you did want to try a D'Deridex because it looks awesome you need to make sure you're space rich enough to kit out a proper A2B build - the Dex is really versatile due to it's boff layout but it is worse than useless without any cooldown reduction due to its' whale-like nature and lack of redundant power options. Auxbatt is the only way to fly it. And for the love of gently caress, don't try to fly a Ha'apax.

It's nearly a copy/paste of the Jem'Hadar Dreadnought Carrier's layout, minus the fighters, that trades health for speed and maneuverability. I had to change very little when transferring over to the JHDC, mostly just replacing Eject Warp Plasma.

Gorelab posted:Why is the Ha'apax considered bad anyways? During Romulan beta it had the perfect cruiser layout and could use the Haakona unique console to seperate it into a support ship and a destroyer, with you choosing which one you piloted while the other one gave support. Flying that thing in destroyer mode with a support ship providing heals and debuffs would have been absolutely fantastic and I was really looking forward to that thing going live. Cryptic, of course, changed the boff layout to the same sub-par garbage most cruisers get stuck with, because god forbid a cruiser do anything except stack engineering tank abilities. It went from a new kind of ship with fantastic possibilites to cookie-cutter garbage cruiser build but this time it's got battlecloak and singularity powers!!!1 It's got a lovely boff layout and not even the zen-store console can save it. Avoid it.

Gorelab posted:Why is the Ha'apax considered bad anyways? The Haakona console is a fun toy (basically saucer separation, but with a sciboat option too that nobody should ever use) but it doesn't really add enough to make it better than the competing cruiser-warbirds. EDIT: What was the original layout on the Haakona anyway? I forget. I recall the D'deridex's being poo poo initially though (a Galaxy-R copy?)

Okay, I've updated Bijor - Part 2: Medical Aid if anyone wants to try it out now. It's still under foundry review content since reviews are down. There's a map transition after you get to the turbolift so you might have to wait a few seconds. e: Please mail me your suggestions/requests.

Found a stack of contra on one of my characters, so I guess I know what I'm doing every four hours this weekend. Is alien still the way to go for new characters with this revamped skill system they've put in?

I'm pretty sure the only thing about Race that matters is how short you want to be and how much you want to look like a anthropomorphic penis.

So I broke down and got a 2 month card on Amazon even though I swore I would F2P this thing. My question remains: Are there recommended Foundry tutorials, especially text-based one? I kind of hate watching video tutorials, I'd rather read them, but I'll watch em if I have to.

Coming back to this after having tried it out briefly when it was first released. Still feels a bit janky, the art direction is terrible, and the story lines are so terribly fanwanky, but apparently overall the game is good now? Started a new Romulan character, why is my first ship a 200 year old TOS era thing?? Requesting access to the goon channel and the wesley guide Wiki name is subyng In game name is Subyng I don't know what the @ handle is.
