If I buy the AMD 'mustang' package off someone from eBay does it include alpha access or is it limited to beta? I already have a package with alpha in it, and I'd like to keep it if I sell my current ship to someone on reddit!

It has Arena Commander access, but it wouldn't have FPS or the other modules before beta access.

Beer4TheBeerGod posted:It has Arena Commander access, but it wouldn't have FPS or the other modules before beta access. To put this in perspective, though, no other packages you can buy right now include access to all of the alpha phases (but all except the $30 one have beta access). The cheapest package including an ArCom pass is $45. So generally speaking, if you can get one of these codes for less than $45, you are saving yourself some money.

If you don't care about what ship you start with or LTI or whatever, the AMD package is the cheapest way to get the game. It's a "good deal" for that, given SC's unclear reputation as a "game"

And if you don't own Alien: Isolation, Dirt 3, Dungeon Siege 3, Alan Wake, Darksiders 1/2, Company of Heroes 2, Total War: Shogun 2, TitanQuest, Supreme Commander, Just Cause, Deus Ex, Payday 2, Thief, Tomb Raider, Hitman Absolution, or Sleeping Dogs then it's an even better deal.

I'd shy away from CoH2, it's a bugfest almost as bad as a Bethesda game. Other than that, the fact that they essentially throw tons of great games makes it even more worth it.

Black Dynamite posted:https://forums.robertsspaceindustries.com/discussion/198452/npc-romance-do-you-want-to-date-your-ai-squeeze#latest I blame SWToR. Actually, it would be more fair to blame rpg games in general, but for now SC seems to avoid most of the rpg stuff like experience and crafting levels. Then again, if there is not encyclopedia worth of facts and stories about every planet and space station, I am gonna be bitching about the lack of immersion, because I am that kind of autistic sperg.

Yes, the Redeemer. A 250 dollar schoolbus for your buddies so you can all look cool before entering the mask fogging simulator. Now, had he said Retaliator, then perhaps I'd be quakin' in me boots slightly. The Retaliator is a proper beast.

I dunno. They just upgunned the Redeemer significantly. More guns and bigger (S3, S4) guns. And S4 missiles. The Retaliator is clearly the kind of thing you use to tear apart a capital ship, but I think the Redeemer's what tears apart Retaliators now. Was: quote:CLASS-3 2× (5x S2) – 2× (5x Firestorm Kinetics ASIM-09/c Spark III) Is: quote:CLASS-1 2× (2x S2) – 2x Omnisky IV Laser Cannon} S5 engines, and apparently very heavy armor plating.

I read somewhere that Beyond Earth is now a part of the deal as well. That's pretty tempting. edit: Ah wait, it appears to be a parallel promotion for the top tier cards only. Shame. tooterfish fucked around with this message at 07:00 on Nov 10, 2014 |

I would like to see CR explain the damage calculation of a Retaliator dropping its entire payload on an Idris in a bombing run. That thing is 238m across, and provides plenty of real estate for unguided bombs to find a home in.

If they do it like most previous CR games then Bombs=Torpedoes and you cannot physically launch a Torpedo unguided. They took so long to lock on you could not physically launch more than one torpedo per pass.

From the sounds of it we'll see a spectrum of it from dumbfire to ones that have their own counter-countermeasures built in. From a gameplay perspective it's a question of how you design it so comedy point blank torpedoing is not a thing. Point defense guns that need silencing, minimum range for the torps to arm, and longish launch sequences including long lock on times would be expected. Else goons will just start suicide-ganking capitals in safe space.
