fuck

steel sparrow
#

lol

crystal sleet
#

the turret itself is s7, but the guns it can use is s5

#

wait no im wrong

#

two s7 laser cannons as stock

#

for the M

#

its the K that gets downed to s5

steel sparrow
#

I see, not for the k?

crystal sleet
#

idris K doesnt list any s7 weapons, just the turret itself

raw lichen
#

There is a S7 twin turret on the Idris - at the front

lone bloom

#

Maybe a better view now?
This is how I imagine the Perseus 🙂

crystal sleet
lone bloom
#

Already, for 4.1.1? kekw

crystal sleet
#

ye lol

lone bloom
#

lmao

raw lichen
#

I died twice to the Idris, on my third attempt the ship was just stationary... so.

lone bloom
#

yeah see an guide where they just set their spawn point in the med bay of the idris xD

#

Which makes it .... pretty easy to clean it especially with T0 Item Recovery

raw lichen
#

So you board an enemy vessel, set your spawn there and then gg? this is cheap

lone bloom
#

basically, yes

#

i mean it works on player ships too

#

Basically being a permanent parasite till they give up

crystal sleet
#

maybe then, with the Perseus not having a medbay, its a silver lining?

lone bloom
#

Nursa

#

and if someone decides to be a parasite

crystal sleet
lone bloom
#

just throw the nursa out

crystal sleet
#

literally, just lower the cargo bay floor

lone bloom
#

well - yes

#

Peak Perseus

crystal sleet
#

Perseus is perfectly equipped with anti boarding functions

lone bloom
#

just missing an interior automated turret in the cargo bay

crystal sleet
#

a tiny s0 repeater

lone bloom
#

yes

#

I hope either way that the airlock is armored

#

like the one on the polaris, needing multiple magazines of LMG's to open

crystal sleet
#

considering the airlock tucks away under the armour, id assume teh hull of teh ship will act as the second hatch

humble anvil
#

Hey

#

Good news

#

We can expect 110 SCM, and 850 NAV for Perseus

#

At least 🙂

crystal sleet
#

hmm? how so?

#

Biggest pirating tip, clear the respawns, then attack the crew

crystal sleet
#

oh i see, just derived from existing numbers

raw lichen
#

The Idris felt like flying a heavy fighter. Something is off there

lone bloom
#

Can do all party member that or only the owner

#

Or everyone?

lone bloom

#

Somebody called me a hacker last time I used it when they were trying to pirate my polaris.

lone bloom

#

Yeah the whole event was a comedy of errors

#

the admin panel is owner only^

crystal sleet
#

ah wait im being illiterate again

raw lichen
#

Interesting:
The Idris has remote turrets 4x S4 twin gatlings - and the according stations were not manned, but the turrets were shooting after I restocked them. Did not notice them earlier.

I believe we get something similar for the Perseus. After all it was said that the ship has automated remote turrets.

humble anvil
#

Perseus? ):

humble anvil
#

WHAT THE FUCK

#

Idris M actually getting released for ILW

foggy beacon
#

Nah

#

No fricking way

humble anvil
#

thats a fleetweek paint

foggy beacon
#

Oh

#

I thought they’re gonna wait for sq 42

#

Maybe it’s like a one time exhibit thing?

humble anvil
#

I DONT KNOW

foggy beacon
#

Oh god

#

I really want the ship

#

How many Idris are they selling

agile tinsel
#

If they ever let us buy it like the Polaris after release, I might get one, otherwise Polaris is already too much for me kekw

#

I ain’t playing the F5 wars

foggy beacon
#

F5?

humble anvil
#

Idris is a Hull Limited ship. They may not even sell it

#

if they do, maybe a handful lol

#

its Idris P

#

so no big cannon

foggy beacon
#

Oh

#

Right

#

But there’s Idris K too

humble anvil
#

wait, im sorry

foggy beacon
#

That kit

#

Honestly

#

I might just steal an Idris when I want one

humble anvil
#

The Idris-P is the civilian variant that features a larger cargo hold with the trade off of not having a missile bay and it also has no front mounted gun installed on the size 10 gun hardpoint, other major key features are identical to the Idris-M.

#

so they'll sell lots of it

#

the Idris K is the upgrade path for the P

#

Idris-K is an upgrade kit designed for the Idris-P but is also compatible with the Idris-M, it includes one size 10 Exodus Laser Beam and several automated turrets.

#

perhaps you could get the P, and pull a Softdeathed idris weapon onto it?

foggy beacon
#

Uhhhh

#

I highly doubt that

humble anvil
#

like the new missions have the idris as an ambush target........ no one except polaris can deal with it...

foggy beacon
#

The weapon are fricking massive

humble anvil
#

i'd like to see an Upgrade Kit for the Perseus

#

Trading the Torpedo bay for an upsize in guns

foggy beacon
#

Turn it into laser instead of ballistic lol

humble anvil
#

or that

#

it has the powerplants to do it

foggy beacon
#

Yeah

humble anvil
#

Perseus - K

#

when cig?

foggy beacon
#

lol

#

I would instantly buy that

humble anvil
foggy beacon
#

Wait so it was a Polaris at the end?

#

I only saw a hammerhead

agile tinsel
# foggy beacon F5?

refreshing the page the moment it becomes available to buy in order to get it before it sells out

foggy beacon
#

I gotta try my luck for that

#

My internet ain’t exactly the best

agile tinsel
#

it's pretty reliable if you put it in your cart beforehand, but it sells out within a few seconds for the warbond versions

foggy beacon
#

Is there store credit version?

agile tinsel
#

the new money ones aren't an issue, because they stay available for minutes, sometimes hours

agile tinsel
foggy beacon
#

I don’t have that kind of new money lol

agile tinsel
#

yeah lol

#

most people just want to melt their fleet to get it

#

you can always buy back your fleet over time, but getting an idris or javelin is a chore

humble anvil
#

they have these capital ship missions. BUT NO ANTI CAPITAL SHIPS IN THE GAME

#

WHEN WE COULD HAVE THE PERSEUS

#

SMHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

lone bloom
humble anvil
#

absolutely

foggy beacon
#

We only have a semi anti cap ship which are the ares

humble anvil
#

the only paint we need

lone bloom
agile tinsel
#

if they do the wikelo route then I'd rather do some easy missions regardless of the grind than outright buy it

lone bloom
#

But has also S7

agile tinsel
#

I was about to say, yeah

lone bloom
#

but Perseus is anti sub cap but has 4x S7

humble anvil
#

ohhhhhhhhhhhh duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude, so there's new armor coming, and spring promotion is starting

#

PATCH BUNDLE TIME

agile tinsel
#

CIG is really strange about how they categorize things

humble anvil
#

maybe when 4.1.1 actually releases live we'll get patch bundle

lone bloom
#

Yeah its stupid either way, they said S6 is the largest anti fighter gun

#

means S7 is entry level of anti cap ships.... yet perseus is classified as anti sub cap

agile tinsel
#

and it's not like the ares has maneuverability to make it sit behind caps or outmaneuver everything, it has worse handling than a connie, pretty sure worse than a corsair

#

if the ares is anti-cap, so is the connie with its 8k DPS lol

humble anvil
#

they been fighting this polaris for an hour in a valkyre

#

ommmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

#

lmaooooooooooooooooooooo

lone bloom
agile tinsel
#

the only reason I think they don't want to call the perseus anti-cap is because

  1. shitty shields
  2. large and cumbersome
    in terms of firepower it can definitely go after something like a polaris, but in terms of protection it stands no chance
lone bloom
agile tinsel
lone bloom
humble anvil
#

anyways, 4x S7 guns, we're all sucking copium hoping that perseus gets upscaled guns to make it more prevelant as an anti capital ship (sub or not)

#

as there's LEGIT NOTHING

#

else

agile tinsel
lone bloom
#

way before ? Engineering has T0 Armor

agile tinsel
#

T0 isn't going to be fleshed out at all

#

or even working I'd say

lone bloom
#

better than nothing tho

agile tinsel
#

T0 is literally "hey we want to work on this but have pretty much nothing"

#

it's just a way for them to say they want to work on something

lone bloom
#

Even the tutorial polaris is shield cycling lmao kekw

humble anvil
#

its funny as fk

lone bloom
#

good luck beating that thing if they shield cycle now

agile tinsel
#

with the way star citizen is looking, there will never be balance when it comes to sub-caps fighting caps

#

you are meant to get steamrolled lol

foggy beacon
#

Steal an Idris, kill Polaris, profit

humble anvil
#

steal idris, ram polaris, profit

lone tundra
lone bloom
foggy beacon
#

You don’t even need to ram, the ai turret are brutal

lone bloom
#

better of farming the hammerhead ERT

#

at least payment wise

foggy beacon
agile tinsel
#

even in the case that you spend 2 hours killing the enemy idris, you still have to spend 10 hours unloading the 1000 SCU's of cargo lol

foggy beacon
#

The Idris I stole killed a HH in like 30 second

lone bloom
#

166K every ~5 min (including travel time)

#

doesn't sound bad kekw

agile tinsel
#

it's also really easy if you just let a guy torp it, hammerhead usually dies after the first or second torp

#

and then insurance scam (scummy but required)

lone bloom
#

but torp costs money

#

or insurance fraud which costs time

#

also showing up with an idris is cooler kekw

agile tinsel
#

insurance scam, expedite, munch on something for 15 mins, do another 15+ ERT's

humble anvil
#

Perseus upgrade kit when

lone bloom
#

I wonder if its still as easy to stick on an idris ass like its used to?

agile tinsel
#

although, it's not like you need to worry anyways, the AI can shoot your polaris for an hour and you would still be fine

lone bloom
#

I assume you can easily fly with an ares behind a polaris aswell then

#

or hammerhead

#

And just stick to its ass, staying consistently in the blind spot

agile tinsel
#

hammerhead is an annoying one with the ares, but polaris is very doable

lone bloom
#

i meant sticking with a hammerhead behind a polaris/Idris :p

agile tinsel
#

I think someone tested it recently after the ares buffs and it was like 80 hits with shields up

agile tinsel
#

hammerhead pilot view is also questionable at best haha

lone bloom
#

well I did it multiple times very easy, but that was pre 4.0

#

and pre polaris

#

dunno if they changed the behaviour of cap ship AI since then

humble anvil
lone bloom
#

if not, it should be easy to kill an polaris AI or Idris AI aslong you have the fire power

agile tinsel
#

last I saw, they're pretty much flying dress up dolls
they look nice and dangerous, but they're the most baked AI to ever exist

lone bloom
#

well hope it works with a percy then aswell kekw

agile tinsel
#

they might hit you some with the s5, but they never use their main weapons

agile tinsel
lone bloom
#

the dual S6 is pretty easy avoidable either way lol

agile tinsel
#

for example

lone bloom
#

it should be more agile than a polaris, period

agile tinsel
#

look at the ares, it had a anti-cap gun, should be able to shit on sub-caps in terms of raw damage
it took them years to finally buff it to damage better than s6

lone bloom
#

less than a hammerhead, more than a polaris

agile tinsel
#

with the perseus I fear they'll give it too low hull HP because they expect armor, a missing feature, to compensate for it

#

so it'll just get chewed up because it has the same shields as an M2

#

so shields are out of the question kekl

lone bloom
#

Well fair view, i mean the HH also has way to low HP

cursive drum
lone bloom
#

Sub Capital with Medium Armor but only 200K Hp while lowest armor for a cap is ~4 million??? kekl

agile tinsel
#

AI hammerheads are incredibly easy in ERT's

humble anvil
agile tinsel
#

when the AI isn't having a stroke they're somewhat scary, but otherwise I just sit there, shoot them for a couple dozen seconds, and profit

lone bloom
#

Because for some reason they always stick as group .-.

#

and never leave formation

agile tinsel
#

I beg CIG to give the eclipse a reasonable rearm rate for the current economy hahhhhh

#

I melted mine after a while when they nerfed the torp cost to like 200k+ each

humble anvil
#

we'll see how the perseus releases... untill we have raw data....

#

the old data is not the best.....

#

old data stats are dated..

agile tinsel
#

regardless of how the perseus turns out, I'll still like it ofc

#

half of star citizen is about looking at the eye candy kekl

lone bloom
#

its still an extremely good 2+ person ship

#

especially for bounties

agile tinsel
#

yeah, it's one of the few large ships with a realistic crew requirement

lone bloom
#

even if they make its shields or hull Hp shit

#

2 S7 just kill the target faster than the shields are down

agile tinsel
#

getting you and 2 buddies in one ship to have all the guns running is going to be a great feeling

#

especially when those guns are s7

foggy beacon
#

Hell yeah

agile tinsel
#

it's the annoying thing about the polaris for me

#

love the ship, but it has insane blind spots if you aren't running 6+ people

foggy beacon
#

Bruh my autocorrect is been annoying lately

lone bloom
#

Well if they balance the perseus as it should be, less agile than a hammerhead, more agile than a Polaris, but damage wise 4x an ares inferno

#

Polaris is in for a very bad time

humble anvil
lone bloom
#

im pretty sure a 2 player perseus will absolutely kill an 2 player polaris

#

100%

humble anvil
#

A single perseus with a full crew, will be able to put ALOT of damage on target, with or without shields on enemy... The ballistics will knock off shit that lasers just wont touch

#

atleast untill shields are down

agile tinsel
#

yeah, polaris can't do much against a ship like a perseus without having like 4 people (including pilot) minimum, until AI blades ofc

lone bloom
agile tinsel
#

and most polaris' are solo or duo crewed

lone bloom
#

Polaris needs badly escort then

agile tinsel
#

although, shooting a polaris might not even be worth it if the perseus cannons don't deal reasonable damage

#

which I fear is another thing CIG will do

lone bloom
#

if they do similar, if not higher damage than an ares inferno, which they should

#

The engines of the polaris are pretty fast gone xD

#

how many shoots do they tank from an Ion? 10?

agile tinsel
#

each perseus cannon imo should be way more effective than an ares one
the ares is the case of putting a smaller gun of the same class on a smaller ship, while the perseus has a proper s7 gun

lone bloom
#

thats what I would think of realisticly even if i would be fine if its simply the exact same dps

#

just with a way higher ammo amount

agile tinsel
lone bloom
#

yeah now imagine that with a single dual turret....

humble anvil
#

if same dps, as a cannon. it will be really good.

lone bloom
#

or even both turrets

foggy beacon
humble anvil
#

because the gatling has spin up, and it has massive spread

lone bloom
#

i mean its still 12 but the time of 6

foggy beacon
#

Yeah

agile tinsel
#

I'm more looking at the ion instead of the inferno, the ion is more similar to what the perseus has than the inferno regardless of one being laser repeater and one being an actual cannon

lone bloom
#

But Inferno has ballistic

#

Ion laser

#

Ballistic DPS is way higher than laser usually

foggy beacon
#

Inferno have marginally higher dps than ion

agile tinsel
#

yes, but the inferno is a gatling gun, which is more of a damage by volume than single shot damage

lone bloom
#

(idk if it was 1.5x increase? compared to laser?)

agile tinsel
#

the perseus and ion both focus on single shot damage

humble anvil
#

10.3k Per Turret (2xS7) or 5.15k per gun.

foggy beacon
#

For cannon type weapon of same size, ballistic have more dmg per shot

humble anvil
#

I'm hoping they negate current game environment to artificially buff it to squeeze past resistance modifiers untill armor but .... people will bitch

agile tinsel
humble anvil
#

let me check something so we can maybe get an idea

agile tinsel
#

few hundred difference I think

lone bloom
#

just mixxing things up now - 2 AM lol

agile tinsel
#

the ion is kinda a scam in terms of its DPS though. The way SC damage works is that if a laser repeater shot takes out a shield with 10 HP left, it doesn't transfer the rest into the hull, it just disappears

#

so a shot that SHOULD 1 shot a small ship, will usually take 2

lone bloom
agile tinsel
lone bloom
agile tinsel
#

yeah

lone bloom
#

and we don't have any S7 cannon yet

humble anvil
#

Ballistic Cannon : 1024 Alpha. 100 FR. 3300 Range. 820 Speed.
Laser Cannon Equivalent : 922 Alpha. 100 FR. 3300 Range. 920 Speed.

lone bloom
#

well - besides the one on the javelin

humble anvil
#

I think its a safe assumption that Perseus turret will be slightly above ion's alpha

agile tinsel
#

CIG is too lazy to design a s7 ballistic cannon, so they'll just make another shitty bespoke

#

which is wild, considering you would expect MOST larger sized cannons to be ballistic

#

there's a reason why we don't make super tiny railguns kekw

#

it just doesn't make sense compared to making a massive one

#

in terms of cost and demand

lone bloom
#

Railgun you say?

agile tinsel
#

Hear me out, if they ever wanted to design a 160m capital class Perseus….ill be the first to recommend that as the concept

lone bloom
#

Still copium about having basically a bigger perseus as carrier from anvil

wooden trench
# lone bloom

I think you'd probably lose the front turret to that. But fix forward 2xS10 with only the rear turret would be cool

lone bloom
#

More like losing the torpedos

agile tinsel
#

Or the bottom turret, that bottom turret would have more use turned around lmao

lone bloom
#

3 top turretskekw

agile tinsel
#

I say we can fit another one on top of the bridge

humble anvil
#

what if they make S7 gun require a "Large" Computer to blade

lone bloom
humble anvil
#

womp womp solo dreams

lone bloom
#

but I placed another smaller turret ontop of the bridge actually what

agile tinsel
#

they even mentioned that the manned turrets can be bladed as a fallback

agile tinsel
#

and the 2 s3 (s4 maybe) are remote, not manned

lone bloom
#

the 2x S3 /S4 are automated either way

#

by stock on the percy

agile tinsel
#

yeah

humble anvil
#

"Medium computers have 3 blade slots"

agile tinsel
#

I still have my doubts that it'll release like that, but I can dream

#

I can't wait to hear their excuse for not copying over the PDC behavior onto them

lone bloom
#

i mean, not much difference to pdcs

humble anvil
#

mhm...

agile tinsel
#

all they need to do is allow them to target large ships

#

and it would be no different from current PDC

humble anvil
#

apable of shredding sub-capital class goliaths

lone bloom
#

hope they increase the range if they should copy the behaviour from pdcs

#

because pdcs have a range of what? 2 km? 1?

humble anvil
#

yes

#

1-2k

lone bloom
#

fair its S1, but percy got S3 (leaked S4)

#

should be around 3K then, just like usual S3 guns

humble anvil
#

suppposed to be automated if not manned *

#

going to be (really good) if it releases with automation out of the box

#

will make alot of people upset

#

but also alot of people happy

#

but S3's hoo boy... that's some weak sauce right there, but yay for automation, no one will ever man those pitiful turrets

#

(i still think they'll get upscaled)

lone bloom
#

better have it than not having it

humble anvil
#

so many people bought it for the 'automation' promise

#

they'll get fucked by law

lone bloom
#

against the average player they're still good enough, in PvE it will do its job

#

but sure some people think they can do the same with the polaris

#

just go into an bounty and just sit there and wait letting the pdcs and automated turrets do their job

#

don't think that will be possible with a perseus xD at least not on higher threat bounties

humble anvil
#

In the brochure, it states that “Twin ballistic Gatling guns can be fully automated or remotely controlled to keep incoming ordnance at bay.” Will it require AI blades to automate these, or is automation part of the ship design as this line of the text seems to imply?

These turrets will come equipped with blades, so can be automated by default. In addition, they will be controllable remotely from the bridge if a player wishes to manually control them.

lone bloom
humble anvil
#

if it gets upscaled

#

and AUTOMATED

lone bloom
#

hold up

#

whats that

#

i want that

humble anvil
#

nova? lol

lone bloom
#

thats no way the nova

#

the barrel is way to long

humble anvil
#

some bullshit

#

idk

#

concept art

lone bloom
#

as usual

#

concept artwork by miles better than the actual thing

#

thought its some kind of artillery tank

#

would be sick, like standing a few km away from your target and a small minimap on an MFD

#

and you can shoot like over mountains to an target on the map

500k HP, Grade A Components Default

humble anvil
reef wind
lone bloom
#

Also if I think about it it has S3 components I assume... just like every other ship that size... but we cannot 'extract' them like on S2 and S1... how are you supposed to get S3 or bigger military components if not by stock if they're not buyable? Since you also cannot get them fron CZ I assume

foggy beacon
#

Iirc exec hanger have s3 comp

#

Though it’s kinda rare there too

humble anvil
lone bloom
#

isnt HH also grade A by stock

humble anvil
#

Nope

#

HH is fucked full grade C

lone bloom
#

how do you get grade A HH components then since you cannot buy them lol

humble anvil
#

Some industrial stuff

#

It needs updated lol

#

All that is

lone bloom
#

so - you don?t

#

till updated

humble anvil
#

I guess lol

#

Use industrial stuff and competition? XD

lone bloom
#

it has military grade C

#

but only for powerplant and cooler kekl

humble anvil
#

Ommmmm

lone bloom
#

and everything military is grayed out so you cannot buy it

humble anvil
#

L ship

lone bloom
#

and also don't get it by CZ since they don't offer S3 components

#

so - if your ship has S3 or bigger components and don't has Military B or A by stock you're borked

#

I see

humble anvil
#

Welp

#

Guess that's also why no one flys those ships

lone bloom
#

I assume you will be able to craft S3 components but till then good luck XD

humble anvil
#

Underwhelming, overmanned, and quite literally outdated boomer ships

lone bloom
#

HH barely got used either way only by orgs because those were the only ones able to crew them

#

thats prob why the percy is so beloved besides the design

#

it only needs 2-3 crew

#

instead of 7

humble anvil
#

If Perseus doesn't release with grade A or B military by default, I'm going to assume they will update it, just like the stealth ships recently had military and got it updated to all stealth by default

#

But it'll probably release full Grade A

lone bloom
#

if pooplaris has A

humble anvil
#

Just because RSI and Polaris got it

#

Back to work I go

Reason it takes so long to make a ship or not

Is whether the team doing it is multitasking other things as well

Tbf just seeing it in a future video would be enough for me to cope my cope

I am here to receive my daily dose of Perseus.

How

#

ohhhhh

#

nvm

Has to break in half to get what's inside

Swimming to CIG HQ to get us Perseus Leaks. Be back soon

God I hope I had a 3d printer

I’ll get 1 soon.

#

Is the Perseus top turret S7 or S10?

vast lagoon
#

Size 800m.

#

Every dollar makes the guns bigger

#

Plenge more

crystal sleet
#

im now wondering why youd think they were s10

#

i presume persepectives

charred basin
#

I could have sworn I saw S10 on the RSI website

#

Maybe I’m schizophrenic

crystal sleet
charred basin

#

It’s quad size 10 for Percy

the full arms upgrade

humble anvil
#

lol dude

#

hammerhead legit exploded just from the idris's vtol thrust with landing gear down

#

oh man...

#

it pushed polaris and 890 J with zero issue

crystal sleet
#

a physics kill? damn

humble anvil
#

happy that the ship is nearing completion. can finally move on to other things

#

but... lol

crystal sleet
drifting solar
#

now im really hoping to see it out for invictus but that's just hopium
the fact is... end of white box in march is a bit late for invictus

crystal sleet
#

i assume youve seen the supposed leaks for the perseus changes?

drifting solar
#

yes

#

happy about the s4, it would make sense
But idk about the reliability of the leak...

crystal sleet
#

i feel like the PDTs are real, but the comps are just placeholders

#

some people are also thinking the Perseus will get quad s4 instead of dual, which is apparently due to the Paladin

drifting solar
#

let's wait and see 😂

crystal sleet
#

either ILW or IAE 2026🤞

drifting solar
#

yeah, i was also wondering, did CIG ever got large ships out in the game, between these 2 events? like, just part of an update

crystal sleet
drifting solar
lone bloom
#

But there is the possiblity that they may introduce / release it with an ingame event like fight for pyro

#

since that story event thing will go on till 2026

drifting solar
#

would make sense as well

lone bloom
#

Like "oh watch faction XYZ has stolen a prototype of the Perseus" and 1 patch later we will havew it flyable ingame

crystal sleet
lone bloom
#

I mean they never had such kind of mission but

#

What if

crystal sleet
#

theres always a first for anything

lone bloom
#

Steal / capture the stolen perseus from faction YXZ and bring it back to facility XYZ

crystal sleet
#

plus the ambush contracts

lone bloom
#

could be an ambush X Capture contract

#

would be even better with engineering

#

Ambushing the ship - softkill it - board it and clean all hostiles - repair it - bring it back to the facility

#
  • you may encounter quantum interdiction on the way back to the facility
#

would be a better mission than most of the fight for pyro missions kekw

crystal sleet
#

itd be cool if you had to dock at those navy capital drydocks at statioms

lone bloom
#

or could also be an optional mission with infiltrated enemy base and steal the perseus

#

like one ambush ship vs ship fight mission or ground ops mission

crystal sleet
lone bloom
#

Sure could even expand that mission even further

#

Maybe the percy is not refuelled and you have to open XYZ ventiles and defend those against enemy waves till the percy is refueled

#

same for an hangar console for the door

crystal sleet
#

also manual turret reloading

lone bloom
#

So many possibilites - and they surely could do those things by now

#

and yet they don't

crystal sleet
#

theyre waiting for the perfect moment to drop

lone bloom
#

i mean mission wise they could do so much better stuff

#

I mean it works with hathor, why not use the same stuff for general missions

crystal sleet
#

they used up the "Cool mission mechanics" budget up

lone bloom
raw lichen
lone bloom
#

Its just painful, had high hope for ILW with Ironclad and perseus, now there are maybe not even display models

crystal sleet
lone bloom
#

and the ships which do release there are quite bad kekw

crystal sleet
#

ILW is gonna be dead

lone bloom
#

Guardian MX nobody will use

#

SL Tac is shitty from concept

#

Asgard is leak wise only perhaps an valkyrie "variant" which is also trash

crystal sleet
#

its just variants

#

again

lone bloom
#

The only usefull ship would be the paladin

#

No actual new ship what

crystal sleet
#

literally either the Ironclad or Perseus would make ILW worth it this year, but Ironclad is probably Defence Con and Perseus is in limbo

lone bloom
#

i mean asgard can perhaps still be a good concept ship and maybe theyre just trolling with the datamined stuff but pain4

wooden trench
#

And possibly a second power plant

humble anvil
#

perseus has 2 power plants

crystal sleet
#

the Perseus comps are jsut the stock Hammerhead ones, indicating its just a place holder atm

lone bloom
#

Polaris got Military A stock wouldn't be suprised it perseus gets the same treatment

humble anvil
#

not looking at leaks

#

if they dont give PDC's, then the remote turrets need to be automated from the start

crystal sleet
humble anvil
#

still... so easy to gimp the perseus

#

:V

#

hey you know what!

crystal sleet
#

still migth be outdated with how engineering is shaping current and future ships

lone bloom
#

There is literally no way to get them

crystal sleet
#

i have not ran any CZs for a while

lone bloom
#

CZ has only S1-S2

#

And shops don't sell Military comps anymore

#

so if you have S3 Industrial you are stuck with it

crystal sleet
#

maybe theyre introducing a new area to get large comps?

humble anvil
#

dude holy shit wtf, the PDC has 1800 m/s speed, and almost 2k range. BRO. NO

#

WTF

crystal sleet
#

the s1 automated ones?

humble anvil
#

YES

lone bloom
humble anvil
#

i was thinking, if the perseus didnt get upscaled, we'd atleast have automation S3 turrets which would be miles better than the PDCs

#

fuck no

crystal sleet
#

yeah, its impossible to dodge, gotta kite them or just keep moving backwards aaway from them

humble anvil
#

HARDLY

#

any better

lone bloom
#

Or wikelo (?)

wooden trench
#

I assume another feature coming in a couple months

crystal sleet
#

oh wikelo, i keep forgetting bout that guy. Highly likely since theyre adding a new room at the Imporium

lone bloom
#

I bet crafting will be 100% one way to get those comps

#

but surely not the only way

crystal sleet
#

crafting implies basebuilding t1

lone bloom
#

I know

crystal sleet
#

or maybe thats what the asgard is

#

crafter ship with t0-t1 crafting

lone bloom
#

Still copium and hopium that Basebuilding will come this year

wooden trench
#

Maby buying through beskar, I mean merc guild credits

humble anvil
#

wtf did they add recently for wikelo.... new armors coming, some crafting recipes got changed, and they're adding the merc scrips

crystal sleet
#

we will atleast get t0 this year

crystal sleet
humble anvil
#

ace pilot helmet, and merc scrips get wikelo favor. which would be cool if they added 'wikelo' components

lone bloom
#

also crafting thing in the left corner

#

at the red wall

crystal sleet
#

they have it, atleast as an object

lone bloom
#

they have millions of assets by now possibly

wooden trench
lone bloom
#

the only thing that holds them back are probably only the simple mechanics how to let players use it

#

not the models

humble anvil
#

has like a couple merc scrips on the body too

#

idk if you have to kill the ace pilot of if hes already dead

wooden trench
#

Aww ffs, that's going to slow down the loop so much. And make it shit playing with friends

crystal sleet
#

yeah, itll be really wierd to just see fabs just blink into existance with the precursor base building UI, itll probably be quite laggy with animations and effects

lone bloom
#

imagine Org bases with 20 drones building at the same time

humble anvil
crystal sleet
humble anvil
#

ambush and escort missions

humble anvil
#

they're small handheld object so can fit in your backpack

crystal sleet
lone bloom
humble anvil
lone bloom
#

But model wise they should have everything or at least the majority already just from the cities

humble anvil
#

they seem to only spawn in hurston

lone bloom
#

it was 26 then 30

#

now 32

wooden trench
crystal sleet
humble anvil
#

dont do the mission xero, its always bugged

lone bloom
humble anvil
#

have to cope with the beacon missions

crystal sleet
#

aw

wooden trench
#

I want a stilt town anyway, as long as they add catwalks between buildings

humble anvil
#

you'll get them

crystal sleet
#

ooh ok

lone bloom
humble anvil
#

i can only do the yellow contracts as orange spawn like 12 enemies and by the time i try to get in and save the ship.. it's already dead

crystal sleet
#

ah, i mustve not noticed or paid attention to that part

wooden trench
#

Our little org is planning a microtech build and I seem the only one interested in building and cargo/logistics so looks like I'm a foreman now

lone bloom
#

it was like the second clip or such with the stones

#

can give you timestamp if i should find it

crystal sleet
lone bloom
#

Finally I can put my thousand of being an builder in Minecraft for multiple servers to an use again - in star citizens kekw

crystal sleet
#

minecraft was more forgiving tbh, itll be like Satisfactory with how you need to place them in a certain space

#

i hope we get actual logistic stuff like pipes and power lines

wooden trench
crystal sleet
#

that will be fun to do

crystal sleet
lone bloom
#

almost 1K hours kekw

wooden trench
#

Need to find a nice spot with mountains and trees in the snow, but also next to one of the ice lakes

#

Use the ice as a landing field

crystal sleet
#

oh god, yeah your base is gonna be efficient as FUCK

lone bloom
crystal sleet
#

mines probably gonna look like a beginner Space Engineers base

lone bloom
crystal sleet
lone bloom
#

No

#

Lorville outer walls actually kekw

#

But i wanted to build a distro center in space engineers 2

crystal sleet
#

god, structures in SC would take ages to make in any other base building game

#

either due to the scale or the details

lone bloom
#

well that wall there took me like 3 hours keksalute

#

but only because you usually cannot place foundations like that and have to use a mod for that xD

crystal sleet
#

SC is just modded X4 Foundations

#

wait, i must spread word of this

lone bloom
#

So either way, you can expect my base to work on 100% efficience and also look good kekw

#

But will probably become expansive as fuck because of all the material you need for everything probably pain4

#

And also because I have to find someone first to rent at least 1 L drone first to build the large drone build tower so i have 4 Large drones myself

#

unless they sell the SL BLD at ILW and if its not that expansive and has L drones I may upgrade to it

crystal sleet
#

ill need to see how forgiving early basebuilding is, then imma just plan based on what i know about logistics

lone bloom
#

I assume it will be buggy as hell tbf

#

Because it changes so much about the enviroment and such stuff, Map holes just everywhere

#

I hope foundations are easy to get

crystal sleet
#

100% players will figure out how to put stuff in the ground mesh, and buildings inside one another

lone bloom
#

I mean the hangars go into the ground

#

just like the cargo elevators

crystal sleet
lone bloom
#

I bet the hangars will be fucked up at least because the game surely will think there is still "planet" ground mesh there were the door of the hangar is

#

and even if the door is open you will crash against the planet

crystal sleet
#

itll have all the bugs the hangars used to have before

lone bloom
crystal sleet
crystal sleet
#

"The Town in the Air"

lone bloom
#

If you build it on castra it may also be in the clouds xD

crystal sleet
#

god, cliffside bases, or on the sides of mountains

#

i bet theyll add different styles of bases for that

lone bloom
#

They want to

#

but they said T1 will release only with the modular standard skin

crystal sleet
#

the conventional flat ground bases, and then the side hanging bases

lone bloom
#

Oh god

#

Basebuilding will give them the opportunity to sell basebuilding stuff for real cash

#

EA Sims 2.0 yeah overpriced DLCS

crystal sleet
#

fuck...LTI bases...

lone bloom
#

I mean they already started to sell overpriced basebuilding stuff

#

7€ for a wikelo hologram

#

thats worse than EA actually what

crystal sleet
#

i dunno, ea kinda on their own level

lone bloom
#

well there you get an entire set of new furnitures for 9€

#

SC offers you a SINGLE ITEM

#

for 7

crystal sleet
#

EXCLUSIVITY

the next cheapest one was 120 AUD

lone bloom
humble anvil
#

i got it GM too, for $50 usd

#

then proceeded to get my buddy it for $55 usd

lone bloom
humble anvil
#

now its 69 usd, or upwards of 100 usd

crystal sleet
lone bloom
#

Would prefer to upgrade my ship for that money, over than buying a single freaking skin

humble anvil
#

absolutely

#

but its the perseus

lone bloom
#

but the base skin isn't bad either yeah

#

And don't forget that there will be farmable / earnable skins ingame too

crystal sleet
#

the stock Perseu paint is mint

lone bloom
#
  • cheaper paints at release
humble anvil
#

yah but fomo paint

crystal sleet
humble anvil
#

yah they would

#

ommmm wikelo

lone bloom
#

And then you wasted those bucks on the fomo skin kekl

humble anvil
#

wikelo upgrade kit pls

#

hell nah

#

then i have the fomo paint

#

my buddy, hes in the navy

lone bloom
#

When purple perseus skin tho

humble anvil
#

he's obsessed with this paint type

crystal sleet
humble anvil
#

he fucking loves the blocky white camo

crystal sleet
#

that concierge paint is just the start

humble anvil
#

inb4 they have

#

a bright orange paint

lone bloom
#

or CNOU

crystal sleet
#

i want this paint scheme, the lower half being red and the upper half being navy grey

lone bloom
crystal sleet
#

it was shit and non combat

lone bloom
#

but in SE2 monke1

crystal sleet
crystal sleet
lone bloom
#

Simply because of resource farming

crystal sleet
#

definitely, itll be Warframe level grinding

lone bloom
#

7 days build time just for a single furniture

#

and having to grind the same mission 100 times before just to get a single use blueprint

crystal sleet
#

spend scrips or store credits to expidite

#

Vaulted vehicle and item sales too

lone bloom
lone bloom
#

Limited time offer - only for the next 24 hours

id be juggling debt with groceries

#

wait, i got a forklift license, i can get good money

lone bloom
#

Forklifting to the percy

crystal sleet
#

once the Mule gets working forks, itll be my go-to shuttle car around my base

wooden trench
#

90% of cargo is chaff atm but I feel it will all be useful once basbuilding gets there

lone bloom
#

Well if they won't increase ERT difficulty

#

If ambush and patrol got now both an Idris as max rep enemy, why not bounty

#

I hope looting from bounties + mining via base build miners will be enough to have an consistent flow enough to build easily without having to go buy a salvager or / and mining ship

humble anvil
#

Ambush and Patrol missions will be fun with Perseus

#

Well

#

Idk what ambushing we'll be doing with a Perseus lol

#

@crystal sleet almost got gotted by that fake leak

obtuse solstice
#

courier missions will be fun with perseus

humble anvil
#

yah know i yoinked an enemy spawn andromeda

#

both the turrets were manned with ai

#

CIG could ... COULD. give us the ability to have ai man our turrets

#

but they dont want to 🙂

lone bloom
#

They pretty much want them to be like "sims" from sims

#

Aka needing food, water, rest time

lone bloom
#

6 years ago yeah

lone tundra
#

and they're not even at the company anymore yeah

lone bloom
#

Well he said yes to that question

#

That part changed by now

#

So far I know they said AI crew will only be as good as an 'average player crew'

#

whatever 'average' is in their eyes

#

because average isn't that good from what I've seen kekw

cursive drum
#

I am well above average.

humble anvil
#

What if they scrap ai crew completely?

crystal sleet
crystal sleet
#

well they could just make the Perseus bespoke weapons line like the Vanguard nose guns

pine root
#

A perseus MX with even more s5 torpedoes

crystal sleet
#

actually a missile boat Perseus might not be a bad idea, just a massive VLS cluster in the front of the ship

humble anvil
#

That's totally doable

crystal sleet
#

basically a guided missile cruiser

humble anvil
#

Yep

#

Would be cool to see

crystal sleet
#

maybe then the Perseus gets a spinal mount for something to balance it out

humble anvil
#

A spinal mount?

crystal sleet
#

like idris laser beam or something sp it istnt completely a sitting duck

humble anvil
#

Mmmm

#

For the missle and Torp boat varient?

crystal sleet
#

yup, just for that since its S7 turrets would be removed

humble anvil
#

Just upscale the PDT xd

crystal sleet
#

make em quad s4's

humble anvil
#

Tbh should be S5 because we're fighting bigger ships

crystal sleet
#

maybe

humble anvil
#

Lol

#

Only scared if they're s3

#

That's not.... Very.... Good.... When platform like the paladin gets quad S5, and a quad S3(?) plus two wing guns at S3(?)

crystal sleet
#

well the paladin is a multipurpose gunplatform, for both antifighter and large ship

#

perseus focuses on anti large and xl ship

humble anvil
#

I know we got big guns and that should be it's focus, big ships

#

And maybe the relevancy comes in when armor comes in. But feel that dual S3 ... It's not going to deter a heavy fighter with ballistics to shoot the turret off

#

They could legit face tank it

crystal sleet
#

i trust the leak that theyre upgunned to s4, just not the quad one

humble anvil
#

S4 is a little better, def more of a deterrent

#

In Chris Roberts we prayge

crystal sleet
#

plus with s4, it can be modded for anti large ship too, slap on some laser cannons on it

humble anvil
#

Was thinking

#

What if they bespoke the whole ship

#

Except for the turret heads themselves to sell an upgrade kit

crystal sleet
humble anvil
#

Bespoke S5 laser cannons (with slow velocity) PDT

crystal sleet
#

which would mean, since the S7 guns are the focus of the ship, the other stuff if bespoke would be bad

crystal sleet
humble anvil
#

Flak turret

#

Fuck it

crystal sleet
#

flak lasers go hard

humble anvil
#

Would

#

Inb4 Perseus doesn't get the leaks

#

And remains the same

#

No PDC

crystal sleet
#

id somewhat be fine with it, since i fell in love with how it is preleaks, the leaks would be a bonus on top

humble anvil
#

Ye

crystal sleet
#

esp since i run with a group that maintains anti air squads

humble anvil
#

Automated dual S3 still a decent missle deterrent

crystal sleet
#

s3 would be the perfect intro into bladed turrets

#

then afterwards they might just upgun it in the future

lone bloom
#

Railgun Perseus?????? yeah

crystal sleet
lone bloom
#

You mean like a S8 Mount on the tip or what yeah

crystal sleet
#

like the Vanguard nose guns

lone bloom
#

but

#

it would look better yeah

crystal sleet
#

i guess, maybe have the bow open up and the railgun just slide out

#

make it look like a trident from above

lone bloom
#

or

#

Just make the percy modular but not the guns

#

but the torpedo room

#

Torpedo room switchable to either torpedos, or a railgun, maybe even medbay

crystal sleet
#

that would be pretty cool

#

maybe give us an electronic warfare suite with jamming and scanning

lone bloom
#

Imagine

#

Perseus with QED and Snare

#

with like 30Km Range

crystal sleet
#

or a directed jamming/microwave emmiter thatn slowly cooks the crew or components inside the enemy ship

lone bloom
#

sure, smaller ships could outrun it, but same class or bigger would have a very hard time

#

would be also cool, slowy to cause enemy ships around you to rise interior temperatur rapidly

#

slowly at the start but then it goes faster up till components start to take damage, maybe start to burn, and crew needs anti high temperatur armor to not melt alive

crystal sleet
#

wait, what about instead of a railgun or laser beam, the torp room was replaced by a small particle accelerator for a particle accelerator spinal mount, or an electromagnetic containment tank for antimatter to fire fast pellets of antimatter

lone bloom
#

wouldn't be that just a plasma cannon

#

just worse?

crystal sleet
#

something like this, but on a smaller scale and shots instead of a beam

#

does insane damage but very limited numbers of uses, liek 3 or 4 shots

lone bloom
#

so - like a railgun

#

xD

#

just different

crystal sleet
#

yeah actually, im not sure how im trying to explain this but yes its a railgun

lone bloom
#

BUt that would break their point of it being sub capital focus

#

Since that would be an clear anti capital weapon xD

crystal sleet
#

the characteristics of the antimatter pellets would be more localised and be more like a sabot, punching through a hull and spreading out in a tight cone through the ship

lone bloom
#

So - more like AOE damage

#

instead than one point

crystal sleet
#

not enough to blow massive holes into a ship, but spreads the effective area of damage through its direction of travel

lone bloom
#

Basically a railgun shotgun

#

xD

crystal sleet
lone bloom
#

dunno if plasma will be something in that direction just weaker

#

since it is AOE damage

crystal sleet
#

its AOE in a cone

#

rather than a sphere

lone bloom
#

Yeah but don't think we will get anything close to that xD

#

MAYBE the retribution in SQ42

crystal sleet
#

would be cool to see though

lone bloom
#

I mean the Kingship is probably the closest to that

crystal sleet
#

the Ret is just gonna delete things

lone bloom
#

Even if its just a huge laser beam

#

You know whats funny

#

They build the Ret to compete in an direct fight with a kingship

#

Yet an single squad of heavy fighters and retalliators was able to kill it pretty much

crystal sleet
#

the problem is that it required the entire fleet based at Vega to distract the rest of the vanduul flet

lone bloom
#

sure they would never been able to get that near the kingship with its fleet around it
