Looks cool that C4 beams and multicannons have a little bit of unique flavor to them. A redesign across the board so that larger classes of weapons gradually feel less pew pew and more like heavy ordnance would be cool but probably doesn't justify the work. Everything in the Road to Beta videos so far looks exciting.

Nostalgia4Infinity posted:Gonna lol forever at pubbies still insisting the 'Vette is bad after 2.1. Thing about the Corvette is, bullet for bullet it's pretty much as powerful as the Anaconda, for sure. The big difference is in manouverability, which is super important for bigger slower ships, in which the Corvette is clearly better than the Anaconda, and in survivability, in which the Corvette has those all important class 7 slots for shields and batteries. The Corvette will have shields for days on top of pretty great armor, which gives it along the lines of twice the effective hit points of the Anaconda. All told, the Corvette is and will be amazing as a pure slugger in combat. I just like my Anaconda better because it looks cooler

Don't worry, they will put out a module meant for explorers that lower the effective mass of your ship and it will have the side effect of making a corvette handle like an eagle and FDev won't notice until it's too late.

I think it's amazing on paper, it just looks so loving ugly. I really hate that chrome-and-carbon militarized look in a spaceship, like some sort of commando discount Star Destroyer. And honestly, for its size I think it's dumb that it's not slow and unwieldy with just a fuckton of weapon hardpoints. I'm talking several huge, large and medium hardpoints meant for turrets to turn that thing into an actual Cruiser type ship that can do just about everything. It just looks like a brawler and a heavy duty hitter much more than a fighter. If that makes sense. I've had a hard time deciding if I should go for it or stick with my conda, but in the end I decided against it. I just don't like it and I probably wouldn't be happy in one.

Corvette looks loving amazing, Black Friday or no. I'm glad you people think your uggo anacondas look like anything other than dog crap formed into a wedge with a weird tail flange, because that means I can fly the real murder triangle and be a special snowflake doing it.

To be fair I do quite like the top side of the anaconda, my only beef is that the boxiness of the undercarriage looks like it belongs on a different ship.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8OMgaDgFGq4 One thing with the new outfitting UI is that it looks like there's no 'compare' utility - so to compare a pulse laser vs. a different type of laser for example, you have to go in and out of the main weapon types screen. Wondering if they'll add an option at some point to just load up all lasers, all projectiles etc. as otherwise that could be a bit of a pain. Generally looks good though. Kurr de la Cruz posted:

Dramatic silliness aside, that's the only real problem with it. I never noticed until I went exploring and came up under one in an SRV, but the undercarriage really does make it look like some kind of unholy type-9 and python fusion.

As far as I'm aware no, unfortunately. It's not on the store last I knew. I don't see a reason for them to not release it since the Horizons preorders still got a deal by getting it for every ship.

Making all those icy rings have a purpose beyond trolling players is a neat little idea. But I'm guessing planets with icy rings won't get their exploration payout adjusted upwards, because that would make sense and I'm cynical. Also I'm getting anxious because we get all those infos about Engineers, but so far zero stuff to do with exploration. Apart from ice mining and missions, this update seems to be all about weapons, weapons, weapons. Nice for people who like to shoot, but right now it looks like explorers get a kick in the nuts, and that's it. Man I'm hoping so hard that I'm wrong.

I mean just driving around in the SRV increases your exploration rank. I know there weren't fancy modules to buy, but there were whole new worlds to land on. I'm okay with this update appeasing the pvp/pve side of the game. Maybe the next update will fix the background sim and trading.

I seem to get betas and all the seasons, and I only bought it because I felt bad about playing, er, "evaluation versions" of Elite: Frontier and possibly First Encounters. Uhm.... the game? To elaborate a little, at the time it was something like 40€ the game, 40€ Lifetime Expansion 20€ Premium Beta access, which was beta access a couple of months earlier than the "paesant's beta". Plus of course access to any further beta, ships and other benefits for the beta-ers (both premium or paesants) so yeah beefy enough for me.

Anybody have thoughts on the 'They will even notice if you drop off the scanners" comment? I'd expect just flavor. But I'm sure some pure strain Real Elite Players are hoping that means they cancel your docking permissions if you are in silent running.
