Toxic Fart Syndrome posted:Oh lort I can't wait for those mat caps to go up. So absurd...especially when there are broken mats in the game, so it's not like you can just "get rid" of those 80 exquisite focus crystals that don't spawn any more (did they fix that?)... I dunno, but if they did fix it then it is likely to be broken again at 3.0 release.

hey I just picked this game up and after running a bunch of black box missions for about 120k each I want to buy a new ship. Are there any like, known bad ships? Like certain ones not to buy or certain ones to buy at comparative prices? I'm not looking for anything combat oriented but I just don't know if I should sink a bunch of money into upgrading a hauler or spend more on like a type-6 but not be able to buy many new parts. Sorry if this has been asked a million times or is on another page but if so can someone link me it? Thanks edit: just found the link in the op I'm dumb and missed it! ghosthorse fucked around with this message at 02:08 on Jan 29, 2018 |

The Viper IV is a 'bad ship' til it's A-rated and lightly engineered, then it's awesome. The various cargo ships are often poor against general purpose ships if you want to jump anywhere or do anything else. I've never seen a use for the 'scout' variants vs just getting an equally priced combat ship. Other than that every ship has good things about it. The answer to the question you didn't ask though, is buy a Cobra III

So the stick rotation went out on my T16000m. I lost the receipt so I can't RMA it. So if anybody wants to try a T16000m and thruster for considerably less than MSRP then PM me. I think this time I'm going to try the X52. Does anybody who uses that setup have good binds they could share? Thanks.

X52 has enough buttons that you can just bind them yourself and do whatever comes naturally to you! It also looks just like the virtual cockpit, so you can just copy that, if you want. I'm still using the old Mad Catz software, so I don't think mine will be helpful to you.

If the pot itself is hosed (they're pretty cheap and cheerful on these things) you could buy a new one for a full quid (or whatever your equivalent currency).

This kind of stuff would be really cool. Making PVP an integrated part of the gameplay loops and not just ganking/anti-ganking for it's own sake. Better yet would be also implementing AI to take part in new piracy activities too which solo players can respond too.

Adding cargo space to the limpet controller so they don't just sit in general cargo hold is something I've been hoping for myself. Very nice thing to have, if that is what they're actually doing.

Hobold posted:Adding cargo space to the limpet controller so they don't just sit in general cargo hold is something I've been hoping for myself. Sounds to me it'd be more like a dedicated small slot for a limpet controller, so you can equip at least one or two without actually sacrificing cargo/module space.

Assuming they go the route of emulating vehicle bays (which is a super great idea in any case), screwing it up could involve: - Making the number of limpet types you can equip in a controller really restrictive - Not letting you equip multiple controllers anymore to get around the above - Changing limpets from cargo into ammo for the controller, but also making the limits really small so you have to frequently dock or use synthesis to restock

Would this be a sane compromise? Fuel + Repair + Decontamination Limpets in one Field Support module Prospector + Collector (and maybe also a refinery) in a Mining Bay module Recon maybe separate?

The Python even as system defense frigate by some of the less awesome tiny powers around. (Also you forgot the corvette. The corvette is also a ship class, or did you think the Fed Corvette was named after a car?)
