Does this game lack a per match economy system where you get resources and spend it on upgrades throughout the match?

You cap mines and kill ships to gain resources, which when the team gains enough you'll go up a level. That will increase your stats across the board. On levels 3,6,9 you'll have the choice to add a bonus to attack, defense, or utility.

Bigass update + hotfixes. I think the game is more fun now. Anyone still playing? Would love to get some people on discord to stomp pubbies. Gladiator with sequential cannons and phalanx fire is dope as hell

I'm still on pretty often. I don't know if I'm a fan yet of the smaller lanes but that plus the mining ships you can shoot and the lowered respawn time certainly reduce the down time during games.

I think the new sizing is a little too small. Combined with the faster respawns and you get a kill but it almost feels meaningless - you haven't bought yourself 60s + transit time worth of 'breathing space' from that same ship coming back at you. This has played out a lot lately in Frontline: I did a 1v1 and won. Second enemy ship came in and I started fighting it. Before I could even finish it off, first one was back on the point - full health and upgraded. It's like I traded time for nothing, and that kill certainly didn't mean I had a chance of capturing a mine. i think some speeding up of things was valuable - there were times when I just died and alt-tabbed because I wasn't going to be back in the fight for a long time - but the way it is now I think it's a little too much. I liked knowing that if I put some lovely Displacer or Raven or whatever down for the count it was going to stay gone long enough for me to accomplish something. I don't feel that now, especially against the AI. I also think the changes do some bad things to alpha ships like an Interceptor or anything with a magazine-reload system. I'd like to see a small increase in lane size (smaller than old, bigger than new) and a slightly slower respawn clock, and then try that out, see what ships need modification at that point. Because some ships will need changes to be competitive when you can't trade distance for time the way you used to be able to.

I played a match with two of those guys I think right after and they were raving about 5x heavies. Of course the rest of our team wouldn't get on board, because pubbies.

Smoove Jazz is my steam name. While I haven't tried it out myself, I'm getting feedback from better players than me that 2x paragon is really good.

The Levi 426 (30 day login reward) is pretty drat high quality; it's got custom effects for almost everything (guns, beam, jumping, beacon deploy, sound effects) and I like the Leviathan, so color me impressed at a $0 investment except clicking a button once a day paying off in spades. I'll know what day 31-60 are tomorrow, assuming they give me a roadmap, but I'm real interested in the new ship they're teasing. Deployable turrets with guns and missiles? Yes, yes indeed.

Day 31-60 rewards are as you'd expect. Standard mix of creds, DNA, plat, pods, implants, and whatnot, but day 52 is an unknown ship and day 60 is an unknown ultimate. Same silhouette for both. It looks unfortunately (or fortunately) phallic. Assuming I can add, at the end of day 60 you'll have: 1 unknown ship/ultimate 4 Gold pods 4 Silver pods 1 Crew pod 1 Implant Pod 250 platinum 137,000 credits 3000 DNA If they even do something half as good as Levi 426, I'm really liking this as a method of player retention.
