And behind the ships is a Perseus

#

Surely it'll be in the background

#

Guys behind the ship tomorrow

#

what do we think it is

#

(the correct answer is Perseus)

crystal sleet
#

Wrong answer is the SL Tac or the guardian

Friday for me, i hate technically being in the future

@pine root I'll pay you to get rid of the brown and make it white rainblush

#

#

oh jeez wtf

#

it's getting buffed again?

tepid wasp

#

as if the damn thing need more shield

#

they still haven't fixed the shield cycle glitch right?

crystal sleet
#

theyre buffing it to give it a chance against the Perseus

tepid wasp

hopefully

#

i'm hoping it's more of an NPC thing

#

They need to get rid of the 50% base reduction for every ship

humble anvil
#

Because then it's stacked with the shield modifiers

#

Honestly is fucking ridiculous

#

Not every ship should have 50% res and some have 57%

crystal sleet
#

yeah they should really start reducing the reduction now, atleast to 30%

humble anvil
#

Then again it's tiered in the future

#

S7 will 1 tap alot of ships

#

It's going straight through

#

So mehyehheh... Nyeew

the random new player in an aurora in the middle of a Perseus crossfire

humble anvil

LM

#

LOL

#

I have so many questions

#

Why an Aurora is anywhere near the persues

crystal sleet
humble anvil
#

Lmaoooo

#

Wraps into OM-4 and there's a fucking brawl going on

#

#

Not to mention he's stuck because the Zeus Mr has quantum interdiction up

#

that part in the Hull C ship advert where they drop out into an org battle with Idris'

Anyways

#

Back to work I go

noone knows the aurora is there because the signatures of all the military comp ships are drowining out the poor aurora

#

even a lot of "light" fighters have 50-55% ballistic reduction

#

which is stupid

humble anvil
#

Light fighters taking 55% reduction from a bullet the size of their ship

#

Is insane

#

Okay not the circumference

a S10 railgun doing 55% less damage because light fighter

the pain of using something like an m7a against light fighters lol

they get 1% of their shield regen and suddenly that 1k alpha just doesn't exist

oh yeah

#

the free rent ships

#

everyone flying a polaris for free...

lone bloom
#

oh right at ILW all ships are flyable for free right? what

#

That will be fun I guess yeah

Especially because there is freefly aswell

dont even board it, just leave it to float in space

Of course, nothing else it deserves

Something to test building, like a single drone that can construct miltiary fortifications?

Y'know, Sandbags and gatling turrets and what not?

lets go placing a wall of sandbags infront of JT entrance next time

perhaps but doubt that honestly

They could test basebuilding already with the personal hangars and failed completely with all that jiggely stuff

Why Perseus is the best ship in Star Citizen:
1.) Soloability :
With the eventual release of Ai Blades into Star Citizen, the Perseus carries enough computer storage and additional power to operate the Ai Blade load. fundamentally meaning; you will never need to crew a player if you dont want to.

Explanation: The Perseus has 2 Medium Computers. Each Medium computer houses 3 Blade Slots. So there is a total of 6 Blade slots. 1 blade is used to make the Turret Remote, and 1 blade is used to automate the Remote Turret.

The Perseus comes with 2 Remote Turrets already installed, and without the need of a Blade, so all you need to do is Automate them. (If it doesn't automatically come automated)

That leaves you with 4 x Blade Slots. and 2x S7 Cannons.. 2 for Each Turrets, meaning you can automate your entire ship. 🙂

2.) Punching up and Down:
The S7 Guns, Torpedos, and Small Armament turrets, whether leaks or not means the Perseus can effectively kill connie class ships with ease, and be detrimental to any light figher that comes close as the PDCs and small arm Turrets will dispatch any solo fighter looking to cause trouble. S7 weaponary is also the bare minimum for punching up against ships like the Polaris and Idris, while other ships won't be able to; the Perseus will.

3.) Survivability:
Having the highest rated Armor for its Class, the Perseus can take a beating, giving you the opportunity to fight back, or Quantum out with little to no damage to the Crew. Quantum Interdicted? Blow that Cutlass out of the sky with those S7 Guns big dawg :).

4.) Leaks:
Rumours of upscaling float about ; whether that's 4x PDCs, 4x S4 turrets, or not at all, it only remains to get better with time.

5.) Future Relevance :
Armor introduction gives long staying power to the Perseus.

6.) Ursa :
It can carry a fucking Ursa

humble anvil
#

FUCK

lone bloom
#

You may can only blade one main turret (if they are bladeable at all)

#

6 total blades - if you should need 2 blades per turret - and if the remote turrets also do need blades to work - you only have 2 open slots

humble anvil
#

i mean half of its copium because we dont know how it will release with these 'automations' other than old hashed info from years ago

#

whether or not the automation will require to be plugged in as Blades

#

prob right

lone bloom
#

It will prob be blades

humble anvil
#

probably

lone bloom
#

just that it comes by stock with 4 blades

#

and still having 2 open slots for perhaps blading one main turret

#

(would still make it soloable tho, its still 4x S4, 2x S7 and 20x S5 torpedos for one person)

reef wind
#

Use the blades on the toilets instead. Automatic flushing is the future.

lone bloom
#

Lets go, flushing update KaOS

humble anvil
#

yeah lol

lone bloom
#

Satisfactory flush update flashbacks

humble anvil
#

maybe depending how it releases you can remote / slave the top turret

#

and blade the bottom

#

wwhoooooo knows

lone bloom
#

Slaving the top turret would be crazy kekw

humble anvil
#

it would

#

and i'd fw it

lone bloom
#

I doubt they do it

#

considering they don't want the pilot to have that much power

#

see polaris torpedo turret

humble anvil
#

:corsair exists

lone bloom
#

I mean corsair isn't 2x S6 :p

#

or 2x S7

#

Google Gemini just popped out a purchase justification sheet

It is morally correct to have your local crack head man the nose turret

Perseus May 25th

grave canyon
humble anvil
#

Wow

#

I'm a Perseus simp and you can't even sell me the Perseus

#

What kind of salesman are you

grave canyon
#

i'm the realest

#

the real perseus is the turret gunners we found along the way

humble anvil
#

Meh, yah know. Sure it sucks, but that's why real players are better but that's subjective because I personally cba to field players to turret my guns

#

I think the best even inefficient that I don't have my time wasted and their time wasted

#

Sometimes I like afk for 30 minutes n watch YouTube while playing.. so I'll happily take some shit AI in my turret

fluid plume
#

Perseus is best ship, can carry a nursa for medbed, has big pew pew guns, great minimum crew requirement for people with barely any friends, and you still get a big ship feeling from it, plus bridge overlooks main gun and the hull, and just nice design style overall, you’ll know you made great purchase when you sitting in pilot seat watching your friend turning the turret and going bang bang

humble anvil
#

Or the AI blade in the future

#

Heh heh turret go brrrr

#

Even if it's 1 medium computer per turret, shiiit

#

1 top big gun, and 1 top mini turret

steel sparrow
#

there are flight blade at Invictus???

#

We got a new 4.1.1 PTU Patch today, and we're going to check out the Idris P available to tour, then look around the Invictus halls. Some very interesting things to find there. Then we'll go over a few additional Polaris changes.

WTF

#

no Perseus tho......

agile tinsel
#

depends on what they actually meant when wording that

#

did they mean weapon, turret, and flight blades to mean 3 distinct different types of blades, or just turrets and weapons seperate from blades

steel sparrow
#

flight blade

#

AI flyes the ship for u XD

agile tinsel

#

cursive drum
#

Interesting…

agile tinsel
#

I was looking at the 2nd hall, and there are like a dozen or more podiums with two slots/spaces for things to sit on

#

Which makes me wonder, are they planning to do a wide showcase of the types of blades?

#

Otherwise, why have so many exhibition spaces for small items

cursive drum
#

I sure hope so!

reef wind
raw lichen
#

sounds like a very exciting invictus to me.

errant ice
agile tinsel
#

I just don't understand why they would dedicate an entire hall to display panels that are exactly the perfect size for those chips if we weren't getting AI blades soon lol

agile tinsel
humble anvil
#

They look like blades

#

Blades are legit little chipboards

#

An SSD you insert into slots

#

So yer

#

Flight blades could be tuners for the ship to make them have more thrust or etc.

#

While using more fuel

#

Or it's legit what we think it is

#

The beginning of turret automation

#

Oh derp

#

It's exactly what it says. Yeah we're getting all 3

#

Flight ai for drones, then remote and target blades for turrets

#

GENTLEMEN. WHEN THE PERSEUS RELEASES. WE FEAST

agile tinsel
#

they probably will limit what ships can use turret blades, I assume the larger and more broken ships won't be able to just blade turrets for easy farming

humble anvil
#

They fixed ai having unlimited ballistic

#

For the ships we fly anyways

#

Maybe they'll limit to remote turrets only. Whooooo knows

#

But the fact too they're getting camera shake in. Dawg, you know they're releasing some shit... Otherwise they wouldn't be touching the turrets, or the Polaris S6 gun.vthere was no point

#

IT WAS A CHANGE BECAUSE THEY'RE TOUCHING THE PERSEUS IN THE BACK

#

SQ42 Shakey stuff coming in because Perseus was supposed to have that reload animation

#

If the Perseus had a shit gun, no one would buy. If the perseus had good gun then Polaris would cry.

Maths

reef wind
#

Oh hot damn

#

I'd touch the polaris blush

#

And the perseus mlem

lone bloom

agile tinsel
#

it wouldn't make sense to CCU to a ship that is $975 just to use it as a stepping stone for a better ship

#

you can't upgrade to the idris with it

#

it has no path after you CCU it

lone bloom
agile tinsel
#

true, but I don't really see why someone would melt a polaris for an idris-p

#

trading s10 torps for a single s7 turret

#

and if you want an idris-k, well you're paying 2k

#

because you need the P to use it

#

they're two different types of ships, and if someone is spending double the money just so they can have a capital with a spinal railgun (or triple if they got it before increase), then I'd consider them a little insane

lone bloom
#

Most people who pay that amount of money for a game are either way a bit 'special' :p

agile tinsel
#

I might be biased, but I also think the polaris interior is also way more friendly

#

very simple to get around

#

and doesn't constantly look dirty kekw

lone bloom
#

Well objectively there are barely signs on where you currently are in the ship unless they added that by now

#

Especially compared to the idris where signage is literally everywhere

agile tinsel
#

Blue means you’re on med room side, orange means the jail side

#

Not very in depth

#

But it’s a pretty linear ship lol

are there 2 options to buy it?

these wiki prices are so weird sometimes lol

#

doesn't show the actual kit upgrade there

lone bloom
agile tinsel
lone bloom
agile tinsel
#

then I'll repledge the melted ships

lone bloom
#

Also - I assume Idris P will drop at ILW, its weapons aren't that great (for its size) its just a huge carrier with alot of cargo capacity

#

just to tease the money whales even more for the actual good Idris (M)

agile tinsel
#

as we have learned from the polaris, hangar is just another excuse to put 1000 SCU's of drugs in your ship

lone bloom
#

Of course kekw

#

I mean why did they put TWO elevators inside of the hangar connected to the cargo hold - its literally giving that people use it for cargo

agile tinsel
#

I remember doing the pyro derelict ship and vaughn missions, and we would just toss every crate through the hangar door until it was completely filled with like 1k+ SCU

#

I fell in and got stuck once hahhhhh

lone bloom
#

xD

agile tinsel
#

had to get the buds to move the boxes

agile tinsel
lone bloom
#

So far I know there are alot of cargo grids in the hangar either way of the Idris on each wall

agile tinsel
#

not only are they useless for large boxes, but they also have a 50/50 chance of eating you

#

the amount of times I've gotten stuck in the walls because of those elevators man

lone bloom
#

Yep

agile tinsel
#

oh that's nice

lone bloom
#

Just the hangar middle doesn't have grid at least from what ive seen

agile tinsel
#

the P also has those 24 SCU cargo holds, I assume once the ship is 10000000% done, they'll go up and down

lone bloom
#

honestly

#

Nobody gonna use those 24 scu rooms

#

xD

agile tinsel
#

unless they expect us to fit the 24 SCU's of cargo through the door and hallways

agile tinsel
lone bloom
#

That would be alot of drugs if it even fills the entire hangar bay

agile tinsel
#

I want a billion weevil eggs laying around my ship

#

floating aphrodisiac transporter

lone bloom
#

But still, there isn't much differente DPS wise from the polaris to the Idris P ? Right?

#

Pretty much only difference is the size (and obv cargo capacity - hull HP)

agile tinsel
#

polaris only has s3 and s4's

#

with a s6 turret

lone bloom
#

Polaris has dual S6 quad S4

#

quad S 4 is pretty much a dual S5

agile tinsel
#

s5 is pretty much the golden zone for weapons currently

#

really good with attrition-5's

lone bloom
#

And the 28x S10 torps..

agile tinsel
#

if we're talking pure PVP then I would want an idris, but for high end PVE (like hunt the idris/polaris), I would probably prefer the polaris

#

I still feel like the polaris guns should be upgunned again, as having those tiny s3's kinda feels off

#

but that ain't happening lol

lone bloom
#

I kinda feel it should be downgunned kekw

agile tinsel
#

noooooooo

#

look at the concept brochures!

lone bloom
#

Its a torpedo boat, not an gunboat

agile tinsel
#

the top guns are so majestic looking

#

then they gave us the tiny nipple guns

#

that's exactly what they look like too

agile tinsel
#

I think it's like 12k stock

lone bloom
#

Still a torpedo boat, not gunboat

agile tinsel
#

questionable torpedo boat since torps are useless in PVP

lone bloom
#

So just because they fuck up torpedos, does that mean they should change the ships entire class?

agile tinsel
#

they need to go back and make torps faster

lone bloom
#

Even if they will fix it later very likely

agile tinsel
lone bloom
#

But you want it upgunned again .-.

#

Bringing it to an standart of an idris sized ship

agile tinsel
#

half joking, half real, I liked the way the original concept looked

lone bloom
#

while being barely bigger than sub capitals

agile tinsel
#

I think reclaimer is 155 though

lone bloom
#

Polaris isn't meant to 1vs1 browl other capitals - unless they're already badly damaged - its turrets are only there to defend it against fighters

agile tinsel
#

not too far off

agile tinsel
lone bloom
agile tinsel
#

I just really hate how it takes the torps 40 seconds to travel 20 km's

lone bloom
agile tinsel
#

if they want it to be a torp boat, at least make torps worth using

#

torps need their speeds doubled, PDC's need to be fixed (they still kill you with your own torps)

#

and honestly, a single CM shouldn't defeat the bespoke s10 torps

#

maybe a s5 torp sure, but these are purpose made s10 torps lol

lone bloom
#

?? S5 torps are for a reason faster because they are supposed to hit since they don't freaking onehite most ships xD

#

and like... half the size

agile tinsel
agile tinsel
#

every torp needs their speed doubled

#

they're massive torps, you would think they would perform better against CM than your run of the mill torp

#

especially since it's a military capital

lone bloom
#

They do perform better... they bring more deadly explosives^^ everything else should be the same - since they come from the same manufacture

agile tinsel
#

once again, waiting 40 seconds watching your s10 torp travel 20 km's is stupid, how are they supposed to be long range if a ship can move faster than them

lone bloom
#

Sure. double the speed of them, but then PDC's should be way more aggressive - and that would become an issue for fighters

agile tinsel
#

I'm talking about PVP in this case

lone bloom
#

In PvP case nobody shoots them either way at an range of 30 km

#

more like.... 50 meter

agile tinsel
#

any ship with gunners/PDC's can drink coffee, take a nap, and still have time to shoot them down

lone bloom
agile tinsel
# lone bloom more like.... 50 meter

ye, but I think that ruins the role of its torpedo boat status, if the only viable tactic is shotgunning the target at 50 meters, then there are serious design flaws

lone bloom
#

They want you to destroy the PDC's first on bigger ships, so you can use torpedos after, thats literally how they want it to

celest kite
#

Starlancer Tac orrrrr Perseus??👀

agile tinsel
lone bloom
agile tinsel
#

TAC was always gonna be ILW, I'm doubting perseus at this rate

celest kite
#

Ohhh 😂

lone bloom
agile tinsel
#

perseus might as well be IAE

lone bloom
#

I don't like onehitting torpedos to be able to just fuck the shit out of everyone

agile tinsel
#

an air gun can launch a potato faster than those torps

lone bloom
# celest kite Ohhh 😂

But I assume that post means they will talk tomorrow about the tac, which is a huge dissappointment because its just an useless dropship and not even that, its just a variant, not even a new ship

agile tinsel
#

how are you supposed to take out PDC's without getting within 1-2 km's? A fighter or two is gonna melt instantly

#

and if the goal is to get in close first, then that already means that CIG intends it to be a gunboat

#

in which case the guns shouldn't be nerfed

lone bloom
#

Unless he doesn't know how to fight

agile tinsel
lone bloom
#

and worst case - you still got a shit load of other missiles on the polaris

#

just use them, and hide a torp in between

#

Overloading the PDC's

agile tinsel
#

s3 missiles don't exactly have the range, but I see how that could be used to overwhelm

celest kite
agile tinsel
#

TAC is gonna be a nice ship

#

med beds and enough firepower to melt other ships of similar size

#

2 S3 shields too

#

meaning it should be ~120k shield health

lone bloom
#

Was just about to ask if the BLD also has 2x S3 but there isn't even an page for the BLD yet kekl

agile tinsel
#

hopefully lol

#

90% of galaxy owners probably melted for a BLD

lone bloom
#

Giving a ship that size only 1x S3 is either way stupid (talking about Max)

agile tinsel
#

pretty sure the max handles worse than a C2 lol

lone bloom
#

And is almost the same size minus the wings

agile tinsel
#

would not be my first pick, that's for sure

lone bloom
#

But has half the shield xD

agile tinsel
#

I think the TAC has some real PVE opportunities though

lone bloom
#

and probably way less HP yeah

agile tinsel
#

2x S3 shields is pretty much a middle finger to the AI

#

until you find an AI connie/corsair

#

god I hate those fucks

lone bloom
#

Was thinking about pledging it, just only because of the additional S3 shield

#

but then I saw what you lose for that, and how much it costs compared to the max kekw

agile tinsel
#

I have an M2 that I like, but not a ton

#

and already own a corsair

lone bloom
#

Well I only have a SL Max

#

But 1x S3 shield is shit

#

Especially if it comes to VHRT or ERT bounties

agile tinsel
#

yeah, I don't enjoy high level bounties even in the corsair

#

60k shield is incredibly soft once you get up there, and you might as well give up a hammerhead mission

lone bloom
#

Issue there is that the minimum in bounties is VHRT to actually get valuable stuff

#

Everything beneath that is trash

agile tinsel
#

and vaughns are no longer worth doing 😭

#

I did like a dozen 2 days ago, all the 118k payout ones

#

every decent ship had at max 1-2 SCU of weevil

lone bloom
#

Well I don't have to worry about money till soft money wipe or full wipe

lone bloom
agile tinsel
#

yeah, it's just that I enjoy numbers going up even if I don't need it kekw

#

the time, effort, and ammo spent alone is not worth it for a weevil egg

#

I get better stuff in HRT's

lone bloom
#

HRT 3-4 Quant or and slam kekl

#

if you are lucky

agile tinsel
#

yep

#

gotta pray it's not just a billion F7's

#

really depends on 1 single ship for the money

signal vortex
#

gib perseus

lone bloom
#

Thats why I usually try at least VHRT

#

Because chance high to get a dozens of Quant or Slam

#

Only have to be lucky to not encounter like 3 Connies at the same spot kekw

#

Guess once percy is ingame purchasable - will make bounties by far more easier

#

Shredding the Hammerheads connies and Herkules like a hot knife through butter with one mate sitting in the upper turret

humble anvil
#

i need to grind hrts and shiizzzz

lone bloom
#

it will be so satisfying to just melt Hammerheads and Connies like they're nothing with dual S7s

humble anvil
#

but then foxwell with those scrips are coming and its like

lone bloom
#

Why do you need to grind HRTs lol

humble anvil
#

i'd like to have the rep for the perseus

#

to go pew pew big ships

lone bloom
#

If they don't do a soft wipe till then

#

Depending on when the perseus arrives... I assume at least at the release of crafting and basebuilding there will be minimum a soft wipe

#

@humble anvil do you even have a perseus pledged?

humble anvil
#

i have a chain, and the thundercloud paint. CCU price is locked in

#

all i have to do is fill in the blanks with store credit or warbond offers

lone bloom
humble anvil
#

ya

#

and with the TAC releasing

#

this is stonks

lone bloom
#

Just a stepping stone to the percy or what

humble anvil
#

ya

lone bloom
#

was about to say because connie to SL TAC is technically a downgrade

#

xD

humble anvil
#

ya

#

TAC is underwhelming

#

especially the SL line up

lone bloom
#

SL needs buff either way - all of them

humble anvil
#

big whoopdy fucking doo if theres no medbay.

agile tinsel
#

Honestly, for the turrets if we don’t get AI blades be then, I’ll probably use one of my alts lol

#

That or get some friends to be turret slaves

humble anvil
#

for the perseus we will get people to turret, there is no doubt

agile tinsel
#

I don’t really trust the people in VC’s lol

humble anvil
#

but those tiny s4's aint no one give a fuck

lone bloom
# humble anvil

Well for me its still way to expensive, prefer grinding my way up to the percy even if i would be very happy to start with it xD But aint gonna pay 700+ bucks for a current JPG - for a company thats not very trustworthy

humble anvil
#

you can gray market

#

339 lol but besides the point

lone bloom
#

Ik but thats risky not gonna do that

#

Just grind my way up to the percy and done xD

humble anvil
#

im going to cull my friendslist, so i'll add you Ravit

lone bloom
#

and just "borrow" it from people in this channel till I can afford it ingame kekw

#

Since doing bounties with a percy is probably by far more efficient than with an SL MAx

#

Melting hammerheads and their Herkules escorts, and enough cargo room to fit a shit load of stolen goods from them kekl

#

Probably making multiple millions per hour

agile tinsel
humble anvil
#

ya

agile tinsel
#

I estimate the Perseus will cost like 100 mil in game

lone bloom
#

I estimate 50 since hammerhead costs 44

#

but I do have 108 million ingame

Could be, but I think CIG will try and upsell it, every ship with good armor costs a fortune, just look at the M2

lone bloom
#

But i doubt they will stay till she is available ingame, especially considering if she won't release ILW its more likely IAE, and then +3-6 Months till its available in ingame shops

#

so meaning 1+ year for the ingame purchase

lone bloom
#

Its because of its weaponry

agile tinsel
#

Well yeah, the chin turret is nice, but the price difference is still insane

lone bloom
#

And Perseus is only one class higher than the hammerhead armor wise

#

and DPS wise they're similar - if we take all turrets

agile tinsel
#

True

humble anvil
#

GOOD NEWS

lone bloom
#

Hammerhead is medium armor - Perseus is heavy armor

agile tinsel
#

I’m guessing each Perseus turret is gonna be like 6k or more DPS, but being a ballistic weapon, that effectively means it’s half against most things

#

So maybe 10k per turret since that’s 5k after losing 50%

agile tinsel
lone bloom
#

He says good news and leaves the chat

humble anvil
#

mehjklshfgkjdhfg

humble anvil
#

just that the Perseus turret will have good range

#

since S6 ha 4.9meter range

lone bloom
#

ofc its a S7 cannon what did you expect

agile tinsel
#

If you’ve used the Polaris s6 then you’ll know that range is never the issue

#

Hitting anything at long distances with the Polaris s6 requires a lot of luck and a dumb enemy

#

The bullets are quite slow lol

lone bloom
#

Or a huge enemy ship

agile tinsel
lone bloom
#

So - the things its supposed to kill

#

xD

agile tinsel
#

Yeah lol

#

Still means that having more range isn’t that amazing though

#

Since 90% of targets are not Polaris’ or hammerheads

lone bloom
#

They will be in ERT's :p

#

Wonder if that means you can take out the Hammerhead before it even comes in range

#

That would be funny

agile tinsel
lone bloom
#

always worry about asteroids behind me then

#

But since the gunner has to shoot and not the pilot sure xD

agile tinsel
#

Yeah, that’s my biggest worry with yela asteroid missions

lone bloom
#

I mean I prefer to fight a Hammerhead in an asteroid field

#

than in atmosphere

agile tinsel
#

Tbf, recently I’ve noticed that in atmo the AI ships will just sit on the ground a lot of the time

#

Literally just park there Omegalul

lone bloom
#

Yeah guess thats a bug they introduced with 4.0

agile tinsel
#

Even saw a couple f7’s doing it

#

But they usually fixed themselves

#

After being hit for a good 10 seconds ofc

lone bloom
#

Just that 10 seconds aren't enough to kill a Hammerhead xd

steel sparrow
#

When behind the ship?

#

Can't wait to see my PerseusDeadinside

lone bloom
#

Since they posted a concept artwork of the SL TAC on Insta, i Assume they talk about the TAC

steel sparrow
#

They did mention they will talk about vehicleS

#

with a S

#

So perhaps multiple?

lone bloom
#

Maybe

#

I honestly hope if they talk about one from the leaked ones its the CMT

#

the control command thing that was leaked (yesterday?)

The capacity of a ship to utilize AI Blades is directly tied to the number and size of its installed Computer components. Star Citizen employs a sizing system for most components, ranging from Vehicle (Size 0) through Small (Size 1), Medium (Size 2), Large (Size 3), to Capital (Size 4). It is logical to infer, and supported by developer comments and examples, that larger Computer components can host a greater number or potentially more complex/powerful blades than smaller ones.Several specific examples illustrate this intended relationship, although precise slot counts per size remain largely undefined publicly :

Anvil Hammerhead: This gunship is stated to possess 2x Medium (Size 2) Computers. Developer comments have indicated that it will not be possible to automate all six of its turrets using blades, with speculation often centering around a limit of four automated turrets. This implies a potential capacity of two turret-automation blades per Medium Computer, or an overall ship-level limitation.

RSI Perseus: The Point Defense Cannons (PDCs) on this gunship are stated to come with automation blades installed by default. This suggests either these blades don't consume standard slots or the ship has sufficient base capacity to include them alongside slots for other functions.

#

Thanks Google Gemini

#

B. Evolution from "Avionics Modules"

In earlier stages of Star Citizen's development and documentation, the component slot now designated for Computers was often referred to as the "Avionics Module". This terminology shift reflects the ongoing refinement and standardization of ship component systems. The current "Computer" designation encompasses the role previously filled by Avionics Modules in relation to blade hosting.The recent appearance of "Avionics Blades" or "Flight Blades" in test builds adds another layer to this. It suggests that the fundamental operational capabilities provided by the Computer component itself – such as running the Intelligent Flight Control System (IFCS), managing Multi-Function Displays (MFDs), or processing basic sensor data – might now be represented by default, potentially non-swappable blades occupying foundational slots within the computer. This aligns with the broader push towards physicalizing all ship components and their functions.

#

in before we need avionics blade or we dont see our HUD

bruh

blud been sending walls of text for no reason

#

doesn’t make sense to have an automated manned turret

#

slaved maybe

steel thistle
lone tundra
#

They've talked about it for over 10 years now

#

A blade can physically be put into the manned turret, from old designs.

steel thistle
#

won’t find it here

lone tundra
#

That is older than the video I posted.

#

By years

#

Their intent, which they've been consistent on, is that all turrets can be bladed.

steel thistle
#

so it’s not 10+ years is it

#

this the source we been using nb going 5 years back from youtube when you just google search star citizen turret

lone tundra
#

Can you even read? It literally says any turret can be autonomous in that post you're referencing

#

I'm done

lone tundra
#

Requires a computer and a blade, but any turret can be bladed

#

Entire ships will be fully autonomous, no extra players required.

steel thistle
lone tundra
#

Hammerhead can, by default, blade 4 of its 6 turrets (for example)

steel thistle
#

well done cig for making a multicrew system to just blade all of the op guns anyway

lone tundra
#

Yep, the Idris-Kit also completely automates most of the Idris turrets

#

It's the way of the future, embrace it

#

I imagine having actual players in them would be 50%+ efficient though

steel thistle
#

they’re contradicting everything

#

increased player caps

lone tundra
#

Nah they've always been courting the space dads

steel thistle
#

crew count for ships

lone tundra
#

Hull E was touted as a solo ship when it was sold, same for 600i and such xD

steel thistle
#

what’s the point in master modes if i got an ai blade for the pilot

lone tundra
#

That's the only thing that cannot be automated and they have been VERY FIRM on that one - a player must pilot a player ship

steel thistle
#

how can you put a blade in a turret that needs to be turned by handles 💔💔💔

#

why do manned turrets even exist

#

they’re shit now

lone tundra
#

It gets swapped out completely to the bladed version, supposedly - dunno how they will do it now

steel thistle
#

pilot gets shot through the glass

#

remote is better in every way

#

the only reason i can think of is if manned has to be crewed

lone tundra
#

Oh and utility turrets can't be bladed either - tractor beams, mining, salvage, etc

steel thistle
#

these devs bro

#

i agree with blading everything but manned and pilot

#

cruise control or auto quantum routes is enough

#

like have it take you from arc corp to yela to yela l1 to a farm

#

and that’s it

lone tundra
#

It is strange that they keep using the word "manned turret" alongside remote turrets and such, like with the Ironclad.

#

They're always inferior to remote turrets :(

steel thistle
#

silly ahh devs

#

manned is just more risk no reward just run blades bro

#

much harder to die looking at the wall of the lancer tac than sitting outside the ship

lone tundra
#

I think it'll just get balanced down by firerate/capacitor/something, even then though, they've claimed multiple times that a full NPC crew could be competitive against a full player crew

steel thistle
#

and polaris already has like none to spare

#

if it powers weapons shields and slight thrust it won’t have any really for the computer

steel sparrow
steel thistle
#

you still need power bro

#

how are you gonna shoot the gun if the turret is off

#

you can’t

steel sparrow
#

One power for weapon?

steel thistle
#

ever tried even turning a turret while it’s off?

steel sparrow
#

Just give it one power

#

And a bit less shield

steel thistle
#

pdcs operate on weapons power and they can’t be made ballistic

#

but on percy everything is ballistic so it’s power should be fine

steel sparrow
#

Learn how to distribute shield to save power X D

steel thistle
#

unless it gets them 4x pdcs all lasers

steel thistle
#

and 5 shield slots

#

💔

#

sometimes it’s like cig is just flailing around like a beached whale

#

in random directions with stuff

#

in fact

#

all the time

#

what are we even doing

#

where is the game going atp 😭🙏🏻

lone tundra
steel thistle
#

are we catering for space dads or making an mmorpg

#

which is it

#

are we making a balanced game or throwing numbers on ships and seeing if it sticks

#

like why does polaris have 27 pips

#

is this the new direction for all combat ships

#

less power

#

more stuff that needs power

#

with the excuse of it needs to be managed

#

mate i’m not managing the power

#

the power is managing me

#

and then when one gen goes down i’ve got 13 pips

#

😭😭😭🙏🏻

I am wondering if the Perseus loaner gets changed from Polaris to TAC perhaps.

crystal sleet
#

i hope so, just something with a large hangar, PLEASE

lone bloom
crystal sleet
lone bloom
#

But

#

Perseus probably also comes with xl Hangar kekw

crystal sleet

its smaller (or the same as) than the Hammerhead, the HH uses a large

lone bloom

I mean you want a capital sized percy Omegalul

And probably only then they will decide it if manned turrets will also be bladable or not

But maybe they will talk today also about blades or tease them

humble anvil

I refuse to accept this reality

errant ice
humble anvil

They're remote

I think

Brb

errant ice

What

#

No

humble anvil

Oh god

I thought because they're tiny

#

No God they're all manned lol

Well they said those turrets can be bladed. Guess we'll see what happens

#

Video today better have a jpeg of the Perseus flying in the background

lone tundra
humble anvil
#

The hammy head has a varient with bigger guns?

lone bloom
#

Hammerhead Layout still bad

lone bloom

If they decide they wanna go an other route with blades

humble anvil

Hammyhead has so much wasted space

crystal sleet
humble anvil
#

Google Gemini said yesterday in its research report that they discussed blades to have wide range of features, from flight tuning, to helping mining.

It also said that they can be used to slave turrets to pilot

#

But. Wherever it took that info from the 75 different sites it read through. I don't know

lone tundra
#

I read it, it was accurate. Probably scraped some of my writing even hahhhhh

lone bloom
lone tundra
#

CIG themselves can do whatever though. They have had an entire director change since all of those were posted. They do seem to be leaning more towards the casual spacedad side atm though, so I would put bets on blades and increased soloability of ships for the short term future.

lone bloom
#

Tbf, Im pretty sure there are more casuals than hardcore player, because its pretty much always like that in MMO's

humble anvil
#

Not to bust anyone's bubble. I hope so lol.... I prefer to casual space dad

#

I really really don't want to get players to man my Perseus

#

It'll be do able but still

lone bloom
#

Yet they said multiple times even IF blades will be able to man manned turrets - there will be offdraws

humble anvil
#

Power draw, em through the roof

lone bloom
#

They surely have to find a middle between spacedads and casuals and hardcore players

humble anvil
#

Ain't dodging missiles

lone bloom

In PvP it should always be Player Crew > NPC Crew > Bladed > Solo

Not even Orgs will be able to crew them

NO BLADES ALLOWED

lone bloom

Also them sitting only in their F7A

I want room for all 200 of my org members

That's why we own 5 Idris

RAAAAGGHHHH

errant ice
lone bloom
#

You can pick priority targets already or at least mark them even if you're alone in a ship

#

most people just don't know that its already in the game for like... years

errant ice
lone bloom
#

Well since we don't have blades, who knows

errant ice
#

True

steel sparrow
#

BT u know ur game just got cancled?

errant ice
errant ice
#

This is like the third time its been canceled

lone bloom
#

NPC crew will be either way a long road probably till that will come ingame xd

steel sparrow
#

imagine they add AI language models that you can just yell commands like "delet that C1" of smth like that and npc crews would do that

errant ice

"Cephalon, increase power to coolers and decrease powerplant output"

"Affirmative, triggering total powerplant meltdown in 3...2..."

So - behind the ships thing in 7 min, right?

cig teases new ship turns out just a garbage truck lol

lone bloom
fluid plume
#

Jared looks in camera ah you thought it was perseus but no its garbage truck

lone bloom
#

Of course its the tac yeah

#

Could not have taken an more boring ship ngl

#

not even a new ship - as I said kekl

#

@humble anvil this you? kekw

humble anvil
#

lemmee look

#

no

#

but im in there

celest kite
#

LOOOK AT RSI MAIN PAGE ABOUT INVICTUS. I HOPE THIS IS THE PERSEUS!

lone bloom
#

Thats the idris mate

celest kite
#

Unless it’s the idris

#

Awwww damn

lone bloom
#

Best part is still they said "NEW VEHICLES" last time

#

aka multiple and Tac is definitely not a "new vehicle"

#

Its a variant of an already existing vehicle

#

Also got the feeling TAC will suffer the same problem as the Hammerhead - needing way too much crew to do anything efficient

humble anvil
#

mmm

#

it'll be able to blade stuff but not our cup of tea anyways

lone bloom
#

Pilot, 4 gunners, +1 pilot for the fury or whatever else fits in there

#

Better of taking a Hammerhead with that amount of crew xD

agile tinsel
#

the fury is more of a personal transport

#

useless in combat

lone bloom
#

Also the average CIG Marketing hits again

#

showing the TAC demolishing a Polaris xD

#

"Can punch above its weight class" ykyk

humble anvil
#

fuck

#

i thought RSI would go last

fluid plume
#

welp see you guys at IAE

lone bloom

Also I assume thats just the Ursa, and not the new Command module vehicle?

lone bloom

maybe there's still an opportunity for them to push it at the finale. it's cope but

that was my original cope

Its the spectrum post from ILW

We have to upvote this man kekw

Putting some pressure on the perseus release

steel thistle
#

i did say this

#

i was like why does tac have 7 fucking crew

#

without the troops in the bay

#

like bro

#

it’s a budget polaris

#

and at that point

#

just take a polaris on skeleton crew

#

😭

lone bloom
steel thistle
#

1 pilot
1-2 engineers
4 gunners

#

there

#

polaris crew

lone bloom
#

Its simply a drop ship with "kind of" gunship capabilities

steel thistle
lone bloom
#

And dropships are - as always- not the best kind of ships

lone bloom
#

Would prefer taking the A2 or M2 over the TAC tbf

steel thistle
#

run an A2 bomb the LZ kill everything then land

#

done

#

2 crew

#

10 soldiers

#

more vehicles than the tac

lone bloom
#
  • tanks kekw
steel thistle
#

yep

#

what’s a buggy and a fury doing

#

nothing

lone bloom
#

tbf the storm tank fits inside of the MAX

steel thistle
#

you got room to take cargo home after the raid too

lone bloom
#

Assuming it will fit into the tac too unless they made the rear cargo thing smaller

steel thistle
#

unless it’s AA

lone bloom
#

Well, yes xD

steel thistle
#

tac lowkey cool but mid

lone bloom
#

There are simply multiple other ships that do the same thing - just better

steel thistle
#

i have one it will likely be CCUed to an ironclad assault

#

because the repair bay is way better than anything the tac has

#

it’s the same crew

#

more cargo

#

just drake :/

lone bloom
#

I hate drake - but Ironclad is reasonable choice xD

steel thistle
#

ye

lone bloom
#

Ironclad and Kraken only chad drake ships

steel thistle
#

i can just stick a nursa or a pisces in the ironclad

#

tanks

lone bloom
#

and tons of cargo

steel thistle
#

it’s just better

lone bloom
#

surely a fighter fits there in aswell

steel thistle
lone bloom
#

since the roof can open

steel thistle
#

like 4 f7 probably

#

1.5k cargo

#

so like

#

fighters are def fitting

lone bloom
#

better of going with an ironclad with 4x F7s

steel thistle
#

if nova fits

#

arrow fits

lone bloom
#

than with a tac xD

steel thistle
#

with blades tho tac might be alright

#

but ironclad won’t be much worse firepower wise

#

it’s not got as good arcs but

lone bloom
#

Especially assault...

steel thistle
#

it’s still decent

steel thistle
lone bloom
#

assault has 2 or 4 more turrets or not

steel thistle
#

only downside is it’s drake but you might be able to just make fuses and components in the repair bay fabricator

#

and then the drake issue goes away

lone bloom
#

It still "looks" like drake so there is that issue :p

steel thistle
#

like the kraken

#

also if in trouble you can just detach and fly off lol

lone bloom
#

Not like the connies... oh wait- thats RSI kekl

steel thistle
#

assault still has tractor beam right? i think

#

got an interior turret in case of thieves 😈🙌🏻

lone bloom
#

Nope

steel thistle
#

who’s picking the tac bro 😭🙏🏻

lone bloom
#

It doesn't have tractor beams

#

Many people copium about the tac

#

Pretty suprised of that since most people play solo - sometimes maybe with 1-2 friends and even then thats to less people for a tac xD

steel thistle
#

no impediment to tank carrying abilities

steel thistle
#

price shouldn’t raise

lone bloom
#

Dunno Perseus and Ironclad are both quite big ships, think if they would come at ILW they would be already in PTU for testing

steel thistle
steel thistle
lone bloom
#

Dataminers can always be wrong

steel thistle
#

so unless they managed to hide it

#

ye

#

tbf if it’s a “patrol” vessel then fair enough

#

but as a drop ship hybrid it’s not amazing

#

like i reckon the tac will be better for ship to ship combat but

lone bloom
#

Only stuff I am interested in from what dataminers got is the MTC and asgard

steel thistle
#

yeah i want that MTC

lone bloom
#

Well I want to know what it is xD

steel thistle
#

ironclad ass and idris

lone bloom
#

Like what is its purpose

#

Is it a basebuild thing?

#

Or is it something like the ATLAS Spartan

#

Also its from Greycat.... doesn't make greycat only like - industrial vehicles?

steel thistle
#

command and control for ground units

#

target acquisition maybe

lone bloom
#

Lets go switching from only industrial to a military vehicle kekw

steel thistle
#

probably a truck with an armoury, bike bay and a big radar map thing

steel thistle
#

yeah like hoverbikes or those tumbril ones

lone bloom
#

When real bikes CIG

steel thistle
lone bloom
#

I mean we know already how it will look like somewhat

steel thistle
lone bloom
#

yes

steel thistle
#

even tho hoverbikes are probably 10x better

lone bloom
steel thistle
#

cuz you can use in space

steel thistle
#

it’s just a car with a radar in the back 💔💔

lone bloom
#

Doubt the one with the bike bay xD

steel thistle
#

WHAT IS THATTTT

lone bloom
#

Because of its size

steel thistle
#

TS TINY

lone bloom
steel thistle
lone bloom
#

But its an enclosed tiny vehicle

#

So...

#

Thats something kekw

steel thistle
lone bloom
#

Was really hoping for the Atlas Building platform tbh

steel thistle
#

who wanna bet the c&c or tactical map doesn’t work yet

lone bloom
steel thistle
#

unless it’s just a terrapin but ground vehicle

#

just a scanner

#

radar vehicle

lone bloom
#

But who does need that tbf

steel thistle
#

nobody

#

except atleast ground vehicles have less signature

#

so they’re harder to find

#

than a ship

lone bloom
#

Would be cool if it could be a surface scanner

#

revealing vehicles nearby

#

like - in an 10-15km distance

#

So you could find like hidden ballistas or such on something like jumptown (?)

steel thistle
#

yeah maybe
