New Federal Corvette looks hype. Is that ship class bigger than what was in the game by default?

The multi-crew thing has me ready to buy the expansion when it hits. I hope its thoroughly implemented with something like crew-stations etc.

Alehkhs posted:They've made no indication that Multicrew includes SpaceLegs (TM). Walking around is still a ways down the line as far as we know, and I suspect that's where we'll see changes to stations. Oh I meant like one dude controls the ship itself, other buddy controls a weapon battery etc.

This is NOT the one with Multi-crew, right? Thats the Horizons expansion?

Space Skeleton posted:ED is $15 on Steam right now. If you preorder Horizons while owning the base game it's $15 (10gbp) off. This owns, ordering tomorrow. Sale's too drat good a deal to pass up.

That droning music is neither soundtrack nor radio. Its ambient ingame, the entire colony hears it and is on lockdown. People are panicking, and making GBS threads their space-drawers.

Arthil posted:I think that I'll buy the base game on discount, there's not really a rush to buy Horizons and while I'm sure it's amazing going down into a planets atmosphere I'll have plenty to be in awe of cause it's space. Same, just bought it. $15 seems like a reasonable enough price.

How do frag cannons factor in compared to the others? Should I want to concentrate max frag projectile on power plants etc via gimbals?

I really liked dual large Pulse gimbaled on my Vulture. I was totally happy with it.

Hope I get real close to Frag cannon a some thargoid, and get my ship torn in half by a tentacle or some poo poo. I'd gladly take the bankruptcy.

It'd be so loving sweet if there was an eventual event, and it leads to players having to run Refugee evacuations en masse from the targeted planets with constant threat of interdiction by Thargoids etc.

Want to get back into this soon. Have an FAS with appropriate armaments but stopped because insurance costs were getting intimidating. Is doing RES bounties still a go to for shootmans guys?

# ¿ Apr 21, 2016 07:58 |

How will the change affect my FAS I wonder? I want to try out the new gigantic multicannons with 2 beams or a pulse and beam to bust shields, but if jerks are just boogeying away I'm kinda boned. This beta requires Horizons, right? I'd test it myself but Im under the impression you sorta need it.

Shine posted:That would be cool, yeah. Space Rangers 2 (FRONTIER PLEASE COPY) had missions like that, where you were tasked with preventing civilian deaths in an area for X amount of time, so if a pirate attacked a trader and you ran the pirate off, it contributed to your success and thus felt rewarding. This would be awesome, and actually make hanging out waiting in an area tolerable.

I just dont have very good luck with the frags, so I hope to go for the M-M-M-MEGA VULCAN setup on my FAS with a Beam to shield strip too. Hopefully the ammo will last a good while EDIT: Can I not buy Horizons on its own now? Its priced at 37 bucks on Steam, with Elite itself being 30 and only available in a merged-format.

Finally got Horizons. I assume that Engineer grind guide is still relevant? Seeing vids of full multicannon setup on the FAS. Is that a decent setup? Dandywalken fucked around with this message at 05:24 on Oct 1, 2016 |

Wow, "KILL THE SKIMMER" missions still generate for bases without Skimmers it seems. Same with Goliaths. Lol gently caress.

Ahh fair enough. Thats a drat shame, I really wanted to be a bomber and blow the poo poo out of bases for profit in Horizons I'll bust out the SRV though.

Anyone have any tips for FAS versus NPC FDL? They can gently caress me up pretty good it seems. Should I be using Assist Off to keep sliding around onto their rear end in little boosts? Using full Multicannon loadout, both large with Incendary ammo. EDIT: Actually gently caress it, they cost 30 million credits more per unit for a reason I suppose. Will stick with small poo poo. And man, the FAS stinks now it feels like. I'm thinking of downgrading to Vulture :\ Dandywalken fucked around with this message at 00:10 on Oct 4, 2016 |

Man having a bounty on you and not able to pay it off manually just seems like such an affront to common sense in design

Am I dumb for considering downgrading back to the Vulture from the FAS? Seeing the price of Military Composite at 14 mil for the Assault Ship just kind of stunned me.

So to power level to Diry Drives 3, I should just go to the starting woman who offers that tree of upgrades and grab em? Not wait for the upper tier guy who goes to 5? Its 30 jumps away, so would rather not waste a trip and end up in that totally unfamiliar area

K8.0 posted:Engineers fundamentally makes the game less fun to me. The good part of the design of Elite was being able to swap around what you're doing without spending too much time or money on it. Tacking a bunch of bullshit on to make it harder to be optimal is the exact opposite of what was good about the game. It's not something that can be fixed by changing the numbers - not that they want to, as evidenced by the proposed module change, making combat less fun, and basically everything else they've done. Frontier's design goal has become to great the ultimate grind simulator, rather than to have a game where there's a lot of fun stuff to do, and you do it because it's enjoyable. There hasn't been any point in the past 6 months where I've looked at this thread or the patch notes and thought "that's a good change." He nods. Nostalgia4Infinity posted:
