Starlancer build sucks

lone bloom
#

Literally asked that earlier in the chat

#

if i should

#

do that

#

but otherwise its 72 bucks - without module

humble anvil
#

i cant wait to finish this perseus man

lone bloom
#

If they would finally announce the banner winner I could go for it since I could melt the winner ATLS Geo and reduce those 72 bucks by 45

humble anvil
#

i need to get these ccus out so i can focus in on what i need for arrastra

#

rn ccugame is just pulling whatever makes sense and i cannot comprehend wtf is going on rn

lone bloom
humble anvil
#

correct

lone bloom
#

so you have 6 months of waiting either way

#

xD

humble anvil
#

It doesnt matter much, it'll bne available at IAE, and Ironclads will release

lone bloom
#

maybe

#

there is no talk about ironclad at all still

humble anvil
#

so either or. if i have to use store credit i will

#

well its drake

#

we know about corsair?

#

i dont think so

#

it just kinda popped up

#

or the cutter

lone bloom
#

were both not insta release ships without concept?

humble anvil
#

ya

lone bloom
#

yeah Ironclad isn't? xD

humble anvil
#

btw remember prison thing

lone bloom
#

its bugged?

humble anvil
#

went to prison, got out, still have crimestat

lone bloom
#

@humble anvil and, how goes the crimestat?

humble anvil
#

cleared it

lone bloom
#

It actually worked? lmao

humble anvil
#

after some fighting

lone bloom
#

I mean there are always PvE Enemies at those stations

#

I myself never cleared crimestat, and don't even know how it works

#

Just know you need a Tigerclaw from grimhex and go to a security post

humble anvil
#

only need the ironclads to come out, or Warbond for M2 and Carrack at IAE

#

but still pretty good imo, was fun.

#

What did you think of the Phoenix?

lone bloom
#

and i mean connies are pve meta because of said S5

#

Also, in terms of thinking about Galaxy, may make it dependend on the current giveaways if I should win anything (currently think there is one for the TAC, Asgard and Tonk and still waiting for the LTI Golem announcement who won) if i may win one of those I may upgrade my SL to Galaxy but its not worth for me for 72 bucks to upgrade to it lol (In terms of melting said giveaway ships and use them to upgrade)

#

Even if it means losing now the warbond abilities from the Paladin/tac/Guardian

lone bloom
#

Would be an easier choice if they would've finally announce the winner for the banner contest but they don't for some reason kekw

humble anvil
#

the giveaway ships might be CIG supplied

#

so they have 0 melt value

lone bloom
#

I doubt they would care about such small content creator xd

humble anvil
humble anvil
#

Drake day I think

#

Hmm

#

Caterpillar likely

#

Unfortunately can't really squeeze more in

lone bloom
#

Fixed what

#

Oh

lone bloom
#

Also misunderstood the CCU chain thing Max -> Galaxy would be 84 bucks to upgrade and not 72 - 72 would be the savings yeah

lone bloom
#

@humble anvil Caterpillar warbond

humble anvil
#

hmmm

#

another 250-300 area ccu

#

i dont think i can do anything with catepillar

humble anvil
#

Nope

humble anvil
#

awh man cant wait to finish this bloody thing... truely

humble anvil
#

its just a bit annoying

#

having so many chains

lone bloom
#

Thought you only have two?

humble anvil
#

while yes i want the arrastra

#

there's almost a 3rd

#

i need to get this shit cleaned up lol

#

because i didnt understand ccu game earlier so i have alot of one off things that i dont have anything connecting to it

lone bloom
#

Well you get cleaned the arra chain and perseus chain up at IAE or not

#

Since both will be available

humble anvil
#

ye

lone bloom
#

Perseus is only Carrack -> Perseus left or did you go with the ironclad route?

#

ANd arrasta dunno where you are xd

humble anvil
#

speculating that ironclad will go up from 450$ to 500$
and assault to go from 535$ to 585$

lone bloom
#

so you sitting now on two ironclads or what xd

humble anvil
#

two

mint stratus
agile tinsel
#

if you hold onto the chain until the ironclad releases before buying the ironclad assault to carrack upgrade, then you will see some amazing savings

#

all you need is a carrack to perseus upgrade to lock in the price

humble anvil
mint stratus
lone bloom
#

Its not for the ship

#

Its for CCUing to Perseus and Arrastra

humble anvil
#

the problem is, if it goes uppity, way past the price for the carrack, then cant ccu

#

and i can also see CIG putting ironclad into those price points so we cant ccu to the carrack

mint stratus
#

ahhhh ok sry my bad yeah that would put you in a though spot

humble anvil
#

this is speculative if ironclad went up 50$ each

#

they could go 60$ each but CIG might as well squeeze the 5$ to keep people from ccu'ing

lone bloom
#

question is how much did ships went up at release that size prior?

humble anvil
#

cant ccu to Arrastra from assault if it goes up 50$ each 😭

#

lets look at the Hull C

#

350$ to 500$

#

but that was substantially under price

lone bloom
#

so it could go up way higher perhaps than you think xD?

agile tinsel
humble anvil
#

its got what. 1.5k scu of cargo?

agile tinsel
#

15-20% is normal

lone bloom
#

assault 1.1 or 1.0

humble anvil
#

*whistles

lone bloom
#

nvm

#

normal got 1.536

humble anvil
#

iron could go to 540 if 20% bump

lone bloom
#

and the assault got 1.1 at least that was correct lol

#

would that be bad or no xD

humble anvil
#

if Ironclad goes to 540$ thats GOOD

lone bloom
#

Sounds like it would be good, at least for arra

humble anvil
#

really good

lone bloom
#

would skip the carrack

#

lol

humble anvil
#

wait

#

yeah if ironclad jumped to 540$

#

thats huge #1, but... but

lone bloom
#

carrack is 600

humble anvil
#

It would put it in line with a WB Carrack

#

wb carrack is 560

lone bloom
#

well 540 to 560

humble anvil
#

but would also put arrastra into a good spot too

lone bloom
#

depends

#

arrastra warbond is 525

#

you would need to go for the 575 normal pledge

humble anvil
#

doesnt always have to be warbond xd

lone bloom
#

via store credits

humble anvil
#

ye

lone bloom
#

how stupidly expensive the perseus is wtf

humble anvil
#

i also picked up every cheapest ccu with possible upcoming warbonds for the concept ships

#

lol

lone bloom
#

675 while being way smaller than the arra

humble anvil
#

Arra will go to the moon as well

#

Onboard refinery, s3 laser heads

#

lots of cargo

lone bloom
lone bloom
humble anvil
#

*whistles

#

its drone based aint it

lone bloom
#

Cannot recall anymore where it was said

#

but that those would be also upgraded to S4

humble anvil
#

gyad damn

lone bloom
#

to crack "bigger" asteroids

humble anvil
#

yeah

#

wow

lone bloom
#

Not the huge ones like the orion

humble anvil
#

holy smokes

lone bloom
#

but bigger than mole

humble anvil
#

Mole is s2 i thought

lone bloom
#

no

#

Mole is S3

humble anvil
#

ah okay yeah

#

thats what i was going on about

#

Arrastra has a size up on the mole

#

which is 👌

lone bloom
#

And since Arra is the middle thing between Orion and Mole... xD

#

Like you want huge mining and everything on one ship but not a capital

#

also in the video it was said Arra will be probably the biggest mining ship that will still be able to go into atmosphere

#

and land

humble anvil
#

im ready

lone bloom
#

Since the orion can't

#

yeah the paint is great too

#

wasn't it also a concierge paint?

humble anvil
#

yea

#

the concept paint

lone bloom
#

May pick up a arra paint and perseus paint

humble anvil
lone bloom
#

I mean perseus pretty sure aslong there is one single good looking one

#

still don't like that one that much

#

xD

#

And since I will get Perseus I can use the paint day one

#

Wonder what Ironclad will get for paints

#

because flying brick

#

(not official or leak skin, I made that lol)

#

I really hope btw they don't make the SL BLD that expensive because its BLD, since I went not with the galaxy CCU now

humble anvil
#

Galaxy the size of Arrastra

lone bloom
#

yep

humble anvil
#

man

#

multi crew gameplay

#

🤮

#

oh well

#

claim times gonna suck but is what it is

lone bloom
#

outside from combat

humble anvil
#

Behold... My Fleet

lone bloom
#

Unless they make it absurd annoying that a fuse can pop every few minutes or stuff

#

The perfect triangle fleet

humble anvil
#

Ye

lone bloom
#

Literally only big ships lmao

humble anvil
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

humble anvil
#

Maybe if other ships come out with a good Aesthetic i'll rethink life choices but

#

legit;

#

Pewpew, basebuilder, and everything else ship

lone bloom
#

The fact

#

That the most expensive one in that fleet

#

is the smallest one

humble anvil
#

and its going up

lone bloom
#

oh right yeah surely will go up to 750

#

or more

#

where is it now? 675?

#

I may grind ingame for the Galaxy after the Arra, simply because of it looks

#

I mean - wait

humble anvil
#

tf is with reliant kore having anything weird

lone bloom
#

just look at that difference

#

They even have an TV in there

#

xD

lone bloom
humble anvil
humble anvil
lone bloom
#

But do you get it for the prior price then? If it releases there?

humble anvil
#

yeah i get it for what i pay for it now

lone bloom
#

but if it releases the price goes up

#

so how? xD

humble anvil
#

already have the price locked

lone bloom
#

or do you already have an carrack / Ironclad -> Perseus thing

humble anvil
#

locked in

#

yeah, worst case scenario the ironclads dont release then i have to use store credit

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

lone bloom
#

so you only need the carrack lol?

humble anvil
#

mmmm... kind of

#

but all those ships will be available IAE

lone bloom
#

was about to ask for the arra, but that will come either way maybe in 2-3 years XD

humble anvil
#

yeah lol

#

tbh perseus might even be a citcon ship

#

which is like a month before IAE

lone bloom
#

Maybe

#

wait

#

how did the polaris release?

#

did it release Cit or IAE

humble anvil
#

iae i think

#

yes IAE

lone bloom
#

wasn't there a weird thing that people already had it prior

#

dunno anymore

humble anvil
#

like the TAC

#

was flyable patch day 1

lone bloom
#

Yeah but the patch was at citizenscon yk

#

Maybe that was it, people who already had it were able to use it

#

but others had to wait for IAE

humble anvil
#

im gonna have to melt the phoenix lol

#

i like the ship but out of SC atm

#

xddd

lone bloom
#

where comes the phoenix from

#

xD

humble anvil
#

its a holder until perseus

#

then its gone but will prob get rid of it again soon, despite it being really good

#

drop back to andromeda

lone bloom
#

I mean didn't notice the pdc last time at all doing anything

#

But may be because of its position

humble anvil
#

i picked up all those concept ships and it ate so much store credit

#

pdc does stuff, its helpful xd

lone bloom
#

Wonder if galaxy and arra will get pdcs

humble anvil
#

galaxy is civilian so prob no

#

and arrast prob not

#

best case will be able to blade the turrets

#

Galaxy : 3x2 S5 Weapon Could see them upscaling to quad S5

#

okay thats a little much but e

#

it has 2 computers so should be able to blade all the turrets

#

Arrastra : 3x4 S3 Weapon . has enough computer to blade all turret

lone bloom
#

I could see them slaving two of the dual S5 to the pilot honestly

humble anvil
#

yeah

#

prob

#

and then making the manned turret quad s5

lone bloom
#

or at least the one front turret beneath the nose

humble anvil
#

ye

#

beautiful with the newer ships, the cockpit is more in the middle of the ship

lone bloom
#

or more in the back

#

way better than having them pretty much everywhere on every ship on the front lol

humble anvil
#

think what i'll do is get the f7c mk2 back

#

or the MX lol

#

gonna go buy this shit in game lol

humble anvil
#

picked up 2 more ironclad store credit ccus incase they go to the moon so my arrastra is a bit cheaper

lone bloom
humble anvil
humble anvil
#

Same goes for all the concept CCUs

lone bloom
#

Croberts would be proud

humble anvil
#

It's store credit

lone bloom
humble anvil
#

Yea

lone bloom
humble anvil
#

I'll def be done after These few bits

lone bloom
#

So your fleet is just ironclads now kekw

humble anvil
crystal sleet
#

Ship of the Year

humble anvil
#

mmm

#

the finale

#

@lone bloom just realized i didnt have a giftable pulse for you so had to do a thing. :>) But its good now.

#

you actually can throw shit in buyback, buy it with real money and it will become giftable lol

#

crazy

lone bloom
#

Why would i need a pulse

crystal sleet
#

Mini "stealth" shuttle to use form your Perseus

lone bloom
lone bloom
lone bloom
lone bloom
#

If you did play battlefield 4 you know what I mean

lone bloom
#

Some people srsly, like whats the point in that comparison in the first place?

#

They have literally nothing in common

agile tinsel
tepid wasp
agile tinsel
#

carrack isn't a combat ship, so the only way that comparison works is by looking at amenities

#

more cargo, better rooms, better medical, better hangar

lone bloom
#

Yeah stupid comparison to beginn with

agile tinsel
#

oh yeah, and you pay $200 more exactly because that's what it offers over the TAC

tepid wasp
lone bloom
#

A comparison between a Kraken vs Perseus would be that kind of level

tepid wasp
lone bloom
#

lmao @humble anvil Carrack and Perseus warbond

#

Looks like the risky way with the ironclad lost kekw

humble anvil
#

Mate telling me that assault may not come

lone bloom
#

I mean I told you so to

#

but nobody listens to me

humble anvil
#

ironclad might but the assault may not

lone bloom
#

Well because assault has no use yet

#

why would you bring 4+1 Nova anywhere

#

But that they do a carrack and perseus warbond at the same day is sus ngl

humble anvil
#

all need is a warbond M2

lone bloom
#

why M2 lol

humble anvil
#

OR

#

the ironclad releases

lone bloom
#

So you still sitting on your ironclads now in speculation that it releases and may make it cheaper than the Carrack and Perseus warbond together?

#

I mean the current carrack and perseus is -95

#

But I also don't know anything about CCU so fair kekw

humble anvil
#

i got a hull D to Carrack, (pointless), and an Assault to Carrack. then the follow up is Ironclad to M2, is what i need

#

and using speculation that Ironclad will go up in price, i wont have to buy the WB M2

#

besides that... its filling in the spots that will release at IAE

#

or possible other savings wherever

humble anvil
#

TLDR:

#

Closer to your perseus

#

will have it at IAE

lone bloom
#

And your Arra?

humble anvil
#

that'll come, in time

#

hey

#

if the ironclads release and go up before arrastra. i eating good

humble anvil
#

IAE will be guarantee perseus

#

owo

lone bloom
#

I mean its confirmed already

#

Or at least planned for IAE

#

Still guess Perseus will be an Meta ship for 2 Players for PvE combat

#

Unless there will be at some point a ship that does exactly the same stuff the perseus does, but is soloable (MAYBE the Merchantman because dual S8 (maybe S9) for pilot)

#

But BMM is either way in a weird place because once it gets worked on, then not again and now it may be post 1.0 lol

humble anvil
#

Idris sized ship

#

Hell nah

#

We cope with Perseus 4x PDCs

#

And possible AI blade turrets at release

lone bloom
#

Me watching some Idris vs Idris videos or Polaris vs Polaris - meanwhile the pilots in pretty much every case not using all their energy pips....:

humble anvil
lone bloom
#

Also only 1 pip to engine should be considered a crime

#

Especially in larger ships

cursive drum
#

Why?

azure fulcrum
#

if PDCs won't be able to attack fighters in the future the 2x dual S3 bladed turrets are gonna be hella useful

humble anvil
#

Mhm

#

But every other ship will be able to blade something but ye

#

Those turrets should have that tech pre installed or operated remotely by Copilot/aux Operator

lone bloom
#

I mean, if they are like PDCs.... they will be very deadly considering their aimbot tracking of ships kekw

#

Just still worried about the turret in the back

#

The top turret is great but the one in the back may have the same issue as the phoenix PDC because it gets blocked by the engines

lone bloom
humble anvil
#

That turret will do God's work

azure fulcrum
#

fuck I can't believe we're only 4 months away from perseus release

#

it's coming boys and girls you better believe it

#

we might get a sneak peak at shitizen con what do you guys think?

lone bloom
azure fulcrum
#

??

lone bloom
#

If the copium of rustle would have been true

#

Ilw Finale drop (didnt happen) kekl

azure fulcrum
#

usually with concept sales they update us on the progress every now and then

lone bloom
#

More like a full on video

azure fulcrum
#

unlike assguard which was kept completely silent

azure fulcrum
lone bloom
#

Cutter was one

#

Zeus

#

Now asgard

azure fulcrum
#

oh wait shitty con is october 11th and IAE is november?

lone bloom
#

Meteor is also only known by name and class

#

Yep

azure fulcrum
#

fuck so it is safe to say we won't get any status update until then

#

because we're way too close now

lone bloom
#

Depends

#

They can always do a inside star citizens

#

I mean they made one for the Pioneer also last month(?)

azure fulcrum
#

behind the ships?

#

hmm I hope so

lone bloom
#

They also had one for the BMM showing the progress

#

And also for the polaris

#

Pretty much for any bigger ship thats worth talking about

azure fulcrum
#

with the upgrade in weapon sizes announced at bar shitizen I'm just eager to know what else has changed

#

there must be other changes, size interior etc

humble anvil
#

Meteor might be my daily flyer

humble anvil
#

Perseus for my straight into the flames and fire

azure fulcrum
humble anvil
#

Galaxy for muh base

azure fulcrum
#

I remember the BMM one was years ago

lone bloom
#

The one were they Showed white Box interior

#

Before they stowed the bmm again

azure fulcrum
#

the earliest one is 2 years ago

lone bloom
#

Guess its that

azure fulcrum
#

yeah I've seen that one

#

almost 3 years

lone bloom
#

Yeah there is one from the polaris just months before release

#

Last month from the pioneer

#

Dont See why they shouldnt make one on the percy or and ironclad soon

#

Especially after officially saying that there are changes

#

From concept Till now

lone bloom
#

Still coping for T3 med bay or at least dedicated armory copium

#

I mean even the sl Max has an armory, and isnt even a combat ship

humble anvil
#

It's a gunboat, not a drop ship

lone bloom
#

Sl Max is a freighter

humble anvil
#

But a medbay would be nice 🙂

lone bloom
#

And has a armory

humble anvil
#

You got a point

lone bloom
#

A armory would make more sense on a gunship

#

Than on a freighter

humble anvil
#

Ye

lone bloom
#

Not like i would mind the slmax to have one since its my only pledge xd

#

Hoping the bld also keeps that one

humble anvil
lone bloom
humble anvil
#

M2 is a military transport but

#

Yeah

#

Has like 12 jump seats

lone bloom
#

Its just a heavier gunned c2 tbh

#

Hm

humble anvil
#

Ye

lone bloom
#

Has the carrack a armory?

humble anvil
#

Fk if I know

#

That ship is shit

lone bloom
#

I cannot remember it having one kekw

#

Military Explorer my ass

humble anvil
#

It's probably milita contracted

#

Not so much a military explorer

#

Just like the c2

lone bloom
#

I mean it was used by the uee

humble anvil
#

Hauler but was contracted

#

Ye

lone bloom
#

Has the galaxy one on concept?

humble anvil
#

After all they get the government contracts

#

Huh?

lone bloom
#

Just wondering because its the same class as the carrack

#

But newer kekw

humble anvil
#

What about Galax

lone bloom
#

If it has a armory

humble anvil
#

Idk tbh

lone bloom
#

Do you even look at ships before buying them kekw

humble anvil
#

The only one I have without a shadow of a doubt is Perseus rn

#

And all I know is Galaxy can base build but not at release

#

And Arrastra can mine n refine

lone bloom
humble anvil
#

Inb4 you need someone standing by the refinery otherwise it stops refining

#

To click buttons

lone bloom
humble anvil
#

They're updating it idk how

#

For refinery station

lone bloom
#

They have to reduce the refining time by alot lol

humble anvil
#

Think they will. Probably cut the refined prices too

lone bloom
#

Not done any refining but know it can take up to a whole day

humble anvil
#

The more you have the longer it takes

#

Uhhh

lone bloom
#

To make ship refining usefull they have to reduce it to Minutes

humble anvil
#

I did like 190 SCU of Argo mole in one shot and it took 36 hrs with the fast option

lone bloom
humble anvil
#

I wouldn't be surprised if it's like salvage head

#

Get 32scu of ores, ship starts processing it, taking idk 10 minutes?

#

And has to get pulled out

lone bloom
#

Just make it General often used Material is instant and depends on how fast it can be stored else where (like salvage)

#

And more rare Material like Quant needs 2 min per scu

#

Pretty sure it will end up either way like salvaging

#

That someone has to press manually the Button that it poops out the refined scu containers

humble anvil
#

Sounds bout right

#

I sleep now

pine root
cursive drum
#

Those 2 are not related at all.

#

Definitely…

humble anvil
#

The fucking stick

lone bloom
#

Calls Ship to hangar....

#

Hears a few seconds later a ship explode

humble anvil
solid anvil
heady escarp
steel sparrow
#

let the bullet fly

#

We are gathering more numbers to bolster the Grand Fleet ranks

steel sparrow
#

me trying real hard not to get a second perseus

azure fulcrum
amber crest
#

Or, just defeat the enemy

steel sparrow
#

How dare u think the Perseus would falter in the anvil of war

steel sparrow
#

So me and bro can violate the enemy harder🍆🍆 🫃

crystal sleet
sullen seal
#

which are necessary for something like exploration gameplay, even tho the TAC is not ment for that, its good at it

#

I wanted the carrack for exploration but it's way to chonky, the TAC is a good alternative, no other ship has all those commodities at the same time, it's basically (on this pov) like a mini-carrack but more nimble, so a better solution

lone bloom
sullen seal
#

I think this is the here the difference between an exploration ship and a pathfinder ship

lone bloom
#

Taking an Aurora then

sullen seal
lone bloom
#

Okay, Zeus ES.

#

Usually you don't need a snub hangar, neither medbay since you aint fighting, rover fits, cargo and have firepower and a single turret lol

sullen seal
sullen seal
#

i know people can do without, but i don't want to

lone bloom
#

So, you make it more complicated than it has to be? got it

sullen seal
#

end of discussion

lone bloom
#

Also - Polaris has now main turret slaved to Pilot, hope for Perseus getting the top turret slaved to pilot guys kekl

tepid wasp
lone bloom
tepid wasp
lone bloom
#

Literally most of other ships got that treatment a few patches ago lol

tepid wasp
lone bloom
#

Mining, exploration, combat, salvage lol

#

So, whats your point now?

lone bloom
#

Might be more likely too complicated for you, if you think the Perseus isn't a part of said "primary function" list kekyou

tepid wasp
lone bloom
#

You asked for their primary function of said "reworked" vehicles, combat, aka the same primary function as the perseus.....

#

Which also has "no" pilot guns, yet.

#

Like the other ships on that list prior.

tepid wasp
lone bloom
#

And I just explained it to you, no need for thanks

lone bloom
tepid wasp
lone bloom
#

So you don't wanna bring any arguments, and only wanna be rude? got it

tepid wasp
lone bloom
#

Just that you seem to not bring a perspective lol

tepid wasp
lone bloom
#

So, you're against ships that size getting pilot controlled weapons because of multi crewing?

lone bloom
#

Its a simple yes or no question, and you do only that lmao.

#

Brain gymnastic

cold spruce
#

I'll likely be soloing the perseus even though the engineering update will make it a pain

lone bloom
#

Since they reduce the amount of ships without pilot guns significantly

cold spruce
lone bloom
#

Well, sure, I mean its also confirmed that someday with AI Blades you will be able to slave manned turrets either way to the pilot

cold spruce
#

We'll find out when the perseus comes out anyways but fingers crosses

lone bloom
#

If AI Blades are till then a thing

#

Perhaps the slaving guns to Pilot is just a bandaid till then

#

TIll there is an actual modification that does exactly that

cold spruce
#

Autoturrets are classed as AI blades I think which they did advertise for this ship

lone bloom
#

Dunno if its actually classed as AI Blades by that directly

#

But I am not talking about the two smaller turrets that are automated by stock on the perseus, I mean the main turrets

#

Because of:

#

Weirdly enough, announced in the same year as the Perseus

cold spruce
#

Ahh

#

Might have a watch in a sec

lone bloom
#

it has a timestamp

#

The important part is just maybe 20 sec long

#

"A manned turret you can man it with a human, and if you don't have any human friends on board, you could hire a NPC or could use a blade to slave it to the pilot seat or could use a blade to automate it - its the same for remote"

cold spruce
#

Ahhh

#

Fingers crossed we get crew soon though, that'll be cool

lone bloom
#

So Perseus might have 2 AI Blades by stock for the two dual S3 turrets, but you may can still put the actual buyable AI Blades into the main turrets - just like in any other ship like descriped

#

And Pilot slave them, or let they do their own thing

cold spruce
#

Next year's going to be fun then

lone bloom
#

And since Polaris a combat focused ship also got now its main turret slaved to pilot, just like many other ships that had no pilot guns prior, I assume its a bandaid for most ships till AI Blades are there

#

Assuming if there aren't AI Blades till release of perseus, perseus might also just get one of the two main turrets slaved to pilot temporarily till AI Blades

cold spruce
#

So perseus could be a do-able large solo ship

lone bloom
#

Just like the Polaris is with 4.2

#

At least for PvE

cold spruce
#

I'll likely be doing pve and exploring tbf

lone bloom
#

But some people like DrHaunteo seem to simply have a hate towards AI Blades or giving pilots a weapon in the first place, but cannot bring any arguments why not xd

cold spruce
#

So solo players we need it like me

#

Sounds sad but a lot of players struggle getting a crew (like me)

lone bloom
#

Even Orgs will need it in the end, sure, not for a perseus, probably also not for a polaris

#

But an Idris, Javelin, or Bengal.... good luck to crew that without blades or and AI Crew

#

Even with large orgs

lone bloom

cold spruce
#

I just want to have my own big ship and have fun with it really. Atm it's hard to get a crew for my ship because most like to be in their own ships

lone bloom
#

Thats the general issue of SC lol

cold spruce
#

Mhm :D

#

We definitely need AI crew

lone bloom
#

Some people may bring always the argument in MMO's you also cannot run raids solo (well some can but whatever) but I don't really see that comparison to ships lol

#

For me its a difference between operating a ship, and having to fight extreme strong enemies

tepid wasp
crystal sleet
#

so apparently you can control the Polaris s6 as a pilot???

#

i thought it was a joke

#

wtf

lone bloom
#

not a joke- its in PTU

#

Its just bugged rn, but you absolutely can pilot control it kekw

crystal sleet
#

istg polaris owners are gonna start usinig it as a superheavy fighter

lone bloom
crystal sleet
#

at that point its clear they want to take teh easy Elite Dangerous route

lone bloom
#

Probably, might be also a bandaid for till AI Blades are there and you can slave turrets either way to the Pilot

crystal sleet
#

yeah probably, but is the s6 turret even bladable?

lone tundra
crystal sleet
#

ah thats alright then

humble anvil
#

smash

marsh zephyr
#

Why do nerds think the Perseus will be effective against fighters?

crystal sleet
marsh zephyr
#

No no. A heavy gunship with s8 turrets and token PDCs will be able to defend itself against a heavy fighter

crystal sleet
#

"What do you mean i cant kill fighters in my heavy anti large ship gunship? I kitted out my anaconda with engineered repeaters and turreted engineered laser beams to kill dangerous threat conflict zone fighters"

#

"Why cant i do the same in star citizens?"

marsh zephyr
#

no no no I just need to do a mega broadside TM and theyll all get 1 shot

#

ezpz

#

THE PERSEUS WILL LITERALLY TURN AND BROADSIDE THE HEAVY FIGHTERS FROM 2k

#

idk how

#

people believe

#

that will be the case

#

mad copium

lone bloom
#

Literally stated on the page about the perseus

#

Weakness: Fighters

grave canyon
grave canyon
lone bloom
#

Tbf they are wrong at least in one part there

#

Hammerhead and good against fighting swarms of fighters? kekw

#

Hammerhead loses against a single gladius kekl

grave canyon
#

wym it's literally designed to do that

#

well, they say hammerhead is designed for that which it is

#

it just sucks at it's job

lone bloom
#

In other words

#

it sucks kekw

grave canyon
#

yes but still it was designed for it

lone bloom
#

Anti fighter ordered from Temu

grave canyon
#

literally the entire reason for the hammerhead to exist is anti fighter + anti torp

#

yet it's ass

lone bloom
#

Its like

#

Those temu kitchen gadgets

#

They break after one single usage

#

but they are designed for it kekw

grave canyon
#

yes

marsh zephyr
#

they need to make the turrets some kind of bespoke anti fighter and torp weapon for the HH

lone bloom
#

Bespoken guns on a Hammerhead? People would not be happy xd

#

Even while it would be probably better

grave canyon
#

some kind of faster homing round maybe

#

not much but just enough to have a bit of aim assist on it

#

have it be ballistic and give it faster homing rounds

lone bloom
#

If they will work like flak rounds usually are supposed to work.... then the HH might be actually doing what it was ment for

crystal sleet
#

its gonna be so fucked if the Perseus is the one ship that somehow counters fighters

grave canyon
#

counters fighters
no subcap can ever kill it
very dangerous for caps too
?!

lone bloom
#

looks at Scorpius Antares - Polaris - Roc DS

grave canyon
# lone bloom Lol

do people even take what cig says seriously about stuff like this nowadays

lone bloom
#

And probably also the one hand doesn't know much what the other one does

grave canyon
#

almost as if trying to run a game while developing it breaks the game

lone bloom
#

tbf balance issues aren't probably part of that at least in context of that specific problem

#

More like huge miscommunication between teams

grave canyon
#

it's just shit design

lone bloom
#

But you know what it comes down to if you say bad things about obviously bad stuff "Do it yourself then if you can do it better" hahhhhh

#

like you would have casually laying 800 million around

grave canyon
lone bloom
grave canyon
#

i can almost promise you that if you give 12 years and 800 million to a good game designer and if they were actually trying to make a game like star citizen the product would be way better than what we have now

#

maybe in another 12 years star citizen will be even better than that but at that point it'll be 1 billion + and 25 years of time

azure fulcrum
#

I really doubt perseus is only going to have 2xs3 shields

#

Ironclad has 4xs3 shields

lone bloom
#

They need to badly update it lo

humble anvil
#

and it does have the 2nd powerplant... a 3rd shield would be pretty tight on power but it has ballistic weapons

#

so should be good

azure fulcrum
#

it does, even TAC has 2 shield comeone mane

#

yeah the 2nd powerplant might also be to power the bladed turrets

marsh zephyr
lone tundra
#

2x S3 is fine when you're rocking 4x S8s, needs to have a weakness somewhere

humble anvil
#

just my take, Shields aint dick at that form factor. a Hammerhead, sure hits hard, but its not invulnerable

#

shields aint dick on an 890J lo

#

but its a yacht so

#

my take is hammerhead needs to be brought up to 3xS3 shields

lone tundra
azure fulcrum
#

I think we should bring out the pitchforks and demand a capital class shield

foggy beacon
#

LMAO

#

i'm in too

steel sparrow
#

Imma buy yall a percy if it worked(not really)

humble anvil
#

Ugh

#

I need s9 croberts

#

It's the only way the Perseus will be able to having staying power in this meta

#

Croberts plz

#

We need quad S4 PDTs too

#

And 4 PDCs

#

Thanks croberts

lone bloom
# humble anvil I need s9 croberts

Croberts be like: we like to introduce you the perseus MK II, the manufacture decided that their outdated Model needed an full rework to fullfill the New Standards of the Navy, including an fleshed out armory, medical bay Tier 2, and two additional Main turrets, also it got upgunned to S9 and has 2 Cap shields. Therefor it grew to 150 Meter in size and costs now 900 bucks yeah hahhhhh plenge now

#

Also: it can punch above its weightclass kekl

lone bloom
humble anvil
#

You're going to get someone with that shit

#

Hold on imma do some trolling

lone bloom

wooden trench
humble anvil
#

There's no other ship capable of using as heavy weaponry as the Idris. I HIGHLY believe we will see a Perseus upgrade kit or a beam upgrade kit

#

There's really no reason why they wouldn't

#

They said at baijini it's year of the beam and it's made for bigger ships.

wooden trench
#

Nice

#

Tbf, bomb racks we're very unexpected, as was the nova gatling and scorpius turret

humble anvil
#

Let me see if I can find the exact words translated I guess

#

Beam Weapons:

  • For larger ships.
  • "This is the year of beam weapons."
#

So maybe it doesn't but considering no other S8 in game. I think they will do it to further boost the sale of Perseus

lone bloom
#

We got Beam weapons also for FPS

humble anvil
lone bloom
#

Beam Perseus

#

Imagine the torpedos being swapable with a weaker version of the Idris godbeam

humble anvil
#

Don't give me hope

lone bloom
#

I mean you can swap it on the idris too

#

aslong you have it in the first place kekw

cursive drum
lone bloom
#

Not for the perseus but for every ship that may get hit by them xD

foggy beacon
#

insta shut down lol

grave canyon
#

ballistics are for real men

cursive drum
lone bloom
#

It just takes forever

cursive drum
lone bloom
cursive drum
foggy beacon
#

yeah, it don't do hull damage

#

just turns off their system

#

i've used the S5 distortion scattergun on my corsair before

#

it can shut off a medium ship around C1 sized in about 5 burst with shield down

#

or if you hit it's engine, around 2-3 burst

azure fulcrum
#

this color scheme but for perseus

lone bloom
#

Was thinking about buying that paint till I saw videos with it

#

The red appears in a strong orange lol

azure fulcrum
#

yeah that happens a lot with paints

#

same with the talon paints they suck, only the base ones are good if you ask me

lone bloom
#

dunno never looked at the talon paints

#

great looking ship tho

lone bloom
#

Ya see what i mean kekl

azure fulcrum
#

ewww orange

lone bloom
#

also

#

the leak picture of it had a waaaaay darker gray tone

#

that there is blueish gray

azure fulcrum
lone bloom
#

the frick

#

is it the paint I think it is?

azure fulcrum
#

it look orange ingame

azure fulcrum
lone bloom
#

like.... I know the name of those lmao

azure fulcrum
#

red means orange

lone bloom
#

ah okay is not the paint i thought

#

Thought its that one

azure fulcrum
lone bloom
#

now i have to look up how that one looks ingame

#

ah that one is actually red ingame

azure fulcrum
azure fulcrum
# lone bloom

actually thats one of the best red skins I've seen so far hmm surprising

lone bloom
#

So

#

They can do make red paints

#

why are others then freaking orange

lone bloom
#

Might also appear orange 90% of all times

#

Hope the purple paint guy gets its hands on the percy kekw

azure fulcrum
#

oh lol

lone bloom
# lone bloom

yeah imagine, 80-90% of the hull is that dark/black paint, and there are stripes and accents in bright purple

#

like - wait

#

(because i randomly found it, here is the leaked paint of the starlancer, with the way darker gray tone)

lone bloom
#

For the perseus

lone bloom
azure fulcrum
#

wait no it looks more faded then that

lone bloom
#

Thats still not orange

#

lol

azure fulcrum
#

yeah it's still red

lone bloom
#

Like its still way off

azure fulcrum
#

CIG is so weird sometimes

#

I wonder if color blindness plays a role

lone bloom
#

Also I would never buy paints usually especially not for a ship like the starlancer knowing I would trash it after getting the percy

#

But

#

The standart paint on the Max looks so shit kekw

azure fulcrum
#

I think the TAC paint looks a little better?

lone bloom
#

It is

#

Matt grey

#

Max is chrome/metallic

#

Its literally like you would go in GTA 5 with your car into the workshop thing and make it full chrome to feel cool while it looks horrible

azure fulcrum
#

is this the default tac paint?

lone bloom
#

don't know if it has those red markers everywhere

#

but very similar

azure fulcrum
#

oh lol the red does not look red either

lone bloom
#

ugh wanted a preview of the tac on yt but everyone uses that ugly ass Minions Skin xD

#

ah it has those """""once again RED""""" Marks

#

so yes it is that skin

#

hold up let me cook

#

gonna do something now

azure fulcrum
#

weirrd skin looks like a blender model

lone bloom
#

its fucking brown

#

(used colorpicker from photoshop)

azure fulcrum
#

yeah I was about to say

lone bloom
#

Thought it might be a brownish red

azure fulcrum
#

it's not even brownred RAL3011 it's just BROWN

lone bloom
#

But even in photoshop its straight up brown kekw

azure fulcrum
#

yes straight up

lone bloom
#

I mean kekw

#

I mean to be fair

#

its still by a longshoot better than the max standart paint#

#

I mean

#

Just noticed it also has those "I tried" red marks

#

I really hope they don't do the persy so dirty like they did with the slancer

azure fulcrum
#

the marks look even worse with the failed chrome paint

lone bloom
#

Well I don't know if its just a wannabe chrome

#

or like "unpainted metal"

azure fulcrum
#

freelancer has the unpainted metal look

lone bloom
#

Because chrome is usually... noticable because of reflection like a mirror but since SC is not able to do that and also doesn't have Raytracing in the first place...

azure fulcrum
lone bloom
#

Ngl

azure fulcrum
#

I didn't mind the freelancer paint it looks like metal

lone bloom
#

Looks like chrome material put on something in blender

#

without having it rendered

azure fulcrum
#

;p

#

oh CIG you so lazy

lone bloom
#

like - the prerendered material like you can see what it is

#

But it only appears great once rendered

lone bloom
#

Hoping the SL BLD has an other stock paint

#

I know there was somewhere with all three SLs

azure fulcrum
#

BLD seems just metal color

lone bloom
#

oh no

azure fulcrum
#

with the brown markers

#

you're welcome

lone bloom
#

whatever... will dump it either way once my base is build

#

lol

#

something aint right there

#

Pilot controls 2x S4 guns? I clearly see the side turret there still, or does it mean the turret on the other side is missing and its assymetrical?

azure fulcrum
lone bloom
#

Yeah

#

but the normal Slancer has 4xs4

azure fulcrum
#

oh yeh

lone bloom
#

dual S4 turret on each side

#

and on that picture there is a dual turret

#

or they went lazy and that in the picture isn't the BLD

#

And its the max just as "placeholder"

azure fulcrum
#

yeah they just went lazy

lone bloom
#

My guess would be also that its a typing error

#

SInce there were MANY

#

At that citizenscon

azure fulcrum
#

CIG make lot of error lol

#

30k erorr

lone bloom
#

It was literally a thing of

#

Tell me the Powerpoint was rushed without telling me

#

Back in school, every single error would have a impact on your grade kekw

azure fulcrum
#

yeah they didn't even have concept art of the BLD probably

lone bloom
#

ah no

#

there is one

#

With the metallic paint

#

And still has its 4x S4 pilot guns lol

#

So it was a error in the powerpoint

#

lol

#

there are many pictures of it even which i never saw

#

It does not even lose its whole cargo capacity unlike the TAC

azure fulcrum
#

yeah that would make sense because it needs it for building stuff

lone bloom
#

yeah obv

#

But doesn't make that the BLD

#

simply just a upgrade from the MAX?

azure fulcrum
#

is it just me or do the wings on the engines look out of place?

#

they look dumb to me IDK

lone bloom
#

They do

#

they also do ingame

azure fulcrum
#

yeah they don't even look like wings

lone bloom
#

also why has it red glowing engines

#

its blue ingame

azure fulcrum
#

IDK what they were thinking

#

maybe to make it look like a bird or something

#

it would've looked better without them

lone bloom
#

look how fucking wide it makes it

azure fulcrum
#

yeah especially from the top wow.. the "wings" ruin it for me

lone bloom
#

I mean I would have went with the galaxy

azure fulcrum
#

wings that don't give any lift or have ailerons

lone bloom
#

But wasn't sure if its worth 82 bucks to upgrade my max to it via CCUing

#

especially since it would have no module

azure fulcrum
#

I have the warbond CCU to tac.. but I'm not going to keep TAC its too slow and the wings are dumb

lone bloom
#

hold up

#

you ccued to a tac

#

not knowing how it looks ?

azure fulcrum
#

no lol

lone bloom
#

also Tac and Max get buffed with next patch

#

in terms of speed
