Perseus Pals

[steel sparrow]

that would be ugly as hell

[humble anvil]

I actually thought about that

Reason we haven't seen an updated model is because the front turned rounder

[humble anvil]

When I say that I mean

The belly got extra chunky

[crystal sleet]

https://tenor.com/view/space-battleship-yamato-gif-26236691

[humble anvil]

Bye bye Torp Bay

Hello beam Cannon

Telling ya man

I'm calling it

[crystal sleet]

https://tenor.com/view/spacebattleshipyamato-starblazer-gif-12898464

[humble anvil]

Perseus Upgrade Kit, have to apply it to the Perseus

Becomes an entirely new ship

PDCs and all

Like we get base Perseus from concept

Then we have upgraded Perseus

You want S8/9 Turrets? Or S7 with PDCs? Or do you want a beam cannon no PDCs

Not to give them a terrible idea

But it's cigreed we're talking about

[crystal sleet]

the fact that the idris is getting interchangable turrets, and the nova getting another bespoke weapon, the Perseus might get some... additional selections too...

[humble anvil]

Especially with how they're full streaming ahead with modularity

They're all a test to the fuckery that's coming

[crystal sleet]

imagine if the Perseus becomes the combat ship testing bed, like it gets s8 EVERYTHING, distortions, gatlings, repeaters, fucking tachyon railguns

[humble anvil]

Which look. I'm not mad if they do it, I love options. I would honestly take S7s with a S8 Beam cannon for the Pilot

I really really really really think it's very very very very possible because they planned for it to have every fukn ammo type

[crystal sleet]

perhaps that one fake leak of an ai generated perseus could come true, the one with fixed forward guns

[humble anvil]

Imagine

[crystal sleet]

the Perseus gets Elite Dangerous'ed

[humble anvil]

Upscaled to S8 but you can buy the Perseus 'weapon type' x Kit

We got Railgun Perseus

We got Beam

Shit we even have scattergun Perseus for cqb

[crystal sleet]

s8 tractor beam

[humble anvil]

PERSEUS LIFT

Dude scattergun Perseus

Would be mental

[crystal sleet]

s8 SHIELD GENERATOR, DEPLOY A FOCUSED SHIELD INFRONT OF THE SHIP LIKE A PHALANX SHIELD FORMATION

https://tenor.com/view/medalusa-space-battleship-yamato-2202-kerberos-gatlantis-gif-3763220836122737566

[humble anvil]

OMMMMM

NO GUNS

ENTIRE SHIP IS A SHIELD GENERATOR

[crystal sleet]

REMOVE GUNS AND TORP ROOM FOR ADDITIONAL CARGO SPACE

HEAVILY ARMOURED BATTLEFIELD REARM SHIP

[humble anvil]

hail Perseus

[humble anvil]

When Whitley fucked shit up

RSI determined it needed a bigger gun

So they had to iterate and redesign. Make it bigger

[crystal sleet]

it was because whitely that they had to delay the release of the Perseus, the only prototype was damaged, so they had to upgrade the hull armour, replace the guns with an s8 because the s7 wouldnt fit anymore

[humble anvil]

Yup

Yupyupyup

And they realized they could go even further

And they took the Torp room out for S3 components

[crystal sleet]

15 shield generators

[humble anvil]

I mean s4

My b

A big fat shield gen

And another powerplant

Jesus lol the Perseus would be so hot to work in

[crystal sleet]

theres a reason why they could put a big powerplant in the original hulls

[humble anvil]

Wait

Wasn't lore reasons that they didn't have shield tech that big

So it had lots of Armor

Wasn't until yi'xian or whatever where they reverse engineered

[crystal sleet]

their shield gens were too power hungry, inefficient with power, so only the largest capital ships could use em since they had enough power to spare

[humble anvil]

Xaaaaaa

Aaaaa

[crystal sleet]

when the tevarins waged and lost the war, humans reverse engineered their more effiecient shield tech

[humble anvil]

Aaaaa

Brw

Btw

We gotta stock up

But tbh

Industrial, is really good

And buyable

[crystal sleet]

illprobably resort to indust first, then collect military

[humble anvil]

Its

Really good lol

5s damage Regen delay. Best shield and Regen.

Military is 3s, pretty good shield n regen

[crystal sleet]

theyve got the range/shield pool/cooling superiority, military is just hp

[humble anvil]

Power requirements the same

[crystal sleet]

except powerplants

[humble anvil]

Yea

[crystal sleet]

mil PP are superior

[humble anvil]

Military power u want

Military just a little more HP

Plus probably best to have military power anyways. Think it's quick to reboot on EMP

[crystal sleet]

Perseus gon need that em recovery time incase someone packs distortion

[humble anvil]

Think distortion shutdown is

Oh bo

It's not fast

305 seconds

[crystal sleet]

time to pack some extra fuses then lol

[humble anvil]

Civilian is 200

Idk stats all over the place

Until tomorrow

[lone bloom]

When leak pictures of perseus cig

[steel sparrow]

what's happening

[crystal sleet]

4.2 potentially releasing, stat changes coming with the patch

[steel sparrow]

OHHHHHHHHH baby!!!

[lone bloom]

So Perseus might be somewhere here

Just like the Apollo

[crystal sleet]

https://tenor.com/view/halfway-there-bon-jovi-living-on-a-prayer-band-concert-gif-15226260

[lone bloom]

I mean its probably more than halfway right?

since there isn't that much happening at final

and flight prep

[crystal sleet]

theyve got so much time to polish and finish the Perseus, surely they wont release it before IAE, let alone CitCon

though thatd be pretty mint, i wouldnt want them to waste time they could be using

[lone bloom]

looks to me like final is polishing, and flight prep is testing if everything works as intendet

and grey box is pretty much finishing the ship itsself as model and textures etc

[crystal sleet]

so then the time frame of November release is still on point?

im bad with time

[lone bloom]

depends

they needed uh

5 months for whitebox

1-2 months for greybox

Technically if they continue that speed it could release august

[crystal sleet]

i feel like we would get a decent udea if we had a timeline for the Hammerhead developemet

[lone bloom]

'technically' they won't because they do not release a ship that size randomly without event lol

[lone bloom]

so total time of 8 ish months

that would be faster than the zeus

[crystal sleet]

ive suggested several times before that they could make a whole event dedicated to the Perseus, like a suprise XT event where the Perseus is the main focus

[lone bloom]

Sure they could do so

but marketing team dependend probably

did they EVER release a larger ship (50+ meters) without IAE, Citcon, or ILW?

[crystal sleet]

i still dont know what id want still, either they spend more time to polish and make ut as close to perfect on release, or get them to release it sooner than Citcon

cant have my cake and eat it too, but what flavour cake will they take

[lone bloom]

I can see them dropping the apollo earlier

but Perseus is still a thing of they won't release a sub cap outside of the main events right?

Unless they do a one time event for it

[crystal sleet]

not sure, i dont think theyve ever released a sub cap combat ship outside of a predetermined and known event

but yeah, a first time for everything

[lone bloom]

I mean at the end they could also just say

jep its finished

and we go work on another ship

and perseus will just wait for months for IAE

[crystal sleet]

aye, just go back and forth between projects to update the Perseus with whatever new engineering function

[lone bloom]

Quite sure Perseus has all of those stuff already implemented

Probably just Engineer Terminal again "coming soon"

[crystal sleet]

but i feel as if they wouldnt be able to hold the Perseus back, like they probably will take advantage of FOMO and release it early for extra income, then update it slowly. Big gains for big effort

[lone bloom]

Thats what I guessed earlier

Release at Citizenscon

But you can only use it, if you purchased it prior

[crystal sleet]

hell, maybe an early sale during a new one time event

[lone bloom]

and the actual 'release' will be IAE

[crystal sleet]

either way, im set since i already got one pledged, the second one i can wait to finish the chain for during IAE

its a win/win fr me

[lone bloom]

And people will see the ship ingame, ofc in its OP state since all ships rn release in an OP state lol - to create FOMO like you said so they wait for the Perseus sells at IAE and freaking storming them

[crystal sleet]

the pledge store is just a stock market, but CIG controls the flow

[lone bloom]

NFT Market

[crystal sleet]

people will buy when it is good, and they will melt when they panic

[lone bloom]

Also I wonder what color the paints next year in that ship vote battle thing will be

since I bet the Percy will be at least top 5

[crystal sleet]

clearly the perseus owners will be loud enough to get the Perseus up there

[lone bloom]

Yeah but we had purple last year

before that red

[crystal sleet]

itll be so fucked if the Perseus ends up being the most balanced ship

[crystal sleet]

maybe theyre choosing based off a pattern

[lone bloom]

dunno if they have one

Aslong its not green or yellow//orange

[crystal sleet]

what wer the last three pain colours?

[lone bloom]

only know purple and red last ones

how is that event named?

ship showdown

[crystal sleet]

because if red, purple and blue have been done, then the only other colours they could do without making insane colour combinations is... Green and yellow and orange...

[lone bloom]

2022 was red/black

[crystal sleet]

oh wait, they can just adjust hue

[lone bloom]

2024 purple

was there no ship showdown 2023?

[crystal sleet]

if they go with yellow, then theres an easy combination to do; Black and Gold

[crystal sleet]

there wouldve been one since they do it each year

so there was a 2023 showdown, the corsair won that one

[lone bloom]

yeah but what rewards

[crystal sleet]

2023 was 2952 wasnt it?

[lone bloom]

2953

2022 is 2952

[lone bloom]

ah right

[crystal sleet]

this sick paint scheme

[lone bloom]

the purple blueish

so red black -> Purple/blueish -> Purple-> soon

[crystal sleet]

so blue based on that short pattern

blue + something

wait

[lone bloom]

mixed it up

lol

[crystal sleet]

maybe gold and white?

[lone bloom]

this was last year

Purple

[lone bloom]

2023 purple blueish

[lone bloom]

that 2022

so red/black -> purple blueish -> purple -> this year

[crystal sleet]

seems like they go with a pattern of single colour > double colour > single colour again

[lone bloom]

Blue black?

Either its blue

or blue black

if its going after that pattern

[crystal sleet]

thats already an existing paint scheme, though its a full matte texture

[lone bloom]

could do metallic

[crystal sleet]

mmm

[lone bloom]

like on the red and purple blue one

I mean I am still hoping for good paints at release either way

Since I may or may not get the best in show skin either way without having the percy as pledge

[crystal sleet]

imma have to get em either way, i need to get every paint the Perseus gets

[lone bloom]

but you know where i would be salty if they do it and I won't get it because of that?

https://tenor.com/view/mad-monkey-i-want-food-gif-14093329

[crystal sleet]

only time will tell...

[lone bloom]

for some reason I have that carrack one btw

dunno why

[wooden trench]

I'd there was a paint to match the shark idris I'd be all over that. But if not as long as there's a black/gold concierge paint I'll be happy

[lone bloom]

There is already a concierge paint

and its not gold/black

[wooden trench]

Was thundercloud concierge? I thought it was concept

[lone bloom]

its concierge

[steel sparrow]

that.... is expensive for a paint

[lone bloom]

its GM

wasn't used to be that expensive

But for some reason the GM price increased drastically, and the paint isn't even worth 15 bucks in the first place lol

[steel sparrow]

wait I thought it cost 55 bucks in the first place?

[pine root]

Man I wish I had bought one when they were dirt cheap

CIG GIB PAINT I DESIGNED MORE THAN YOU ALREADY

[wooden trench]

I wish they'd gone with community paints and put out a forza style creator Even if they charged for them with the creator getting a cut there'd be so many nice skins and something avalible for all ships

[lone bloom]

its GM price since you cannot get the paint anywhere else anymore

[solid anvil]

Is there any events where we might see the Perseus for sale again before release

[lone tundra]

It's extremely unlikely.

[lone bloom]

Next sale will probably increase the price

[solid anvil]

Yeah figures

[lone bloom]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1121113616926638131/1369802022949490718/SmashPass.gif

[solid anvil]

How much do u think it'll go up, 700 somthin?

[lone tundra]

750 - 825 would be the range

[lone bloom]

825 would be painfully close to a polaris ngl

[steel thistle]

i forsee it

750

i have spoken

i was right about perseus not releasing and idris releasing

i see star citizen future

[pine root]

That's why I've got two

[lone bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/kuiil-have-spoken-mandalorian-star-wars-gif-15566834

[cursive drum]

It will probably be better.

[lone bloom]

The perseus over polaris?

Perseus will be just a simply better manageable ship for players over a Polaris

Just getting a single crewman as gunner is easy to do, most people have at least ~one friend either way
but crewing a polaris... meh xD

[cursive drum]

Worse guns, bad torpedos. All it has are shields and a medbay. The Hangar isn’t that useful.

[lone bloom]

pretty much

Well its a very.... highly armored freighter? xD

[solid anvil]

It has its fat health pool at least

Idk what Perseus is at

[lone bloom]

you mean in terms of health pool?

[solid anvil]

Yuh

[lone bloom]

Probably 2-3x of the HH

so like 600Kish HP

[solid anvil]

Yaaa

Will still just get melted by the laser Idris horde haha

[lone bloom]

If the perseus pilot is stupid, yes

But Idris were supposed to be rare, here we are, 3-4 Idris K's or Ms at the Polaris missions pretty much all the time lmao

[solid anvil]

Yeah

This game is capital ships forever now

And will be more and more like that as they come out lol

[lone bloom]

Just that cap ships aren't meta at least PvP wise

[solid anvil]

What beats them?

[lone bloom]

Pretty much any fighter

[solid anvil]

💀 wouldn't that take decades, also pdcs still hit fighters

[lone bloom]

Pdcs don't shoot at 2 km range

[solid anvil]

Oh lmao good to know

[lone bloom]

fighters can outrange larger ships

you simply dodge the bullets

[solid anvil]

Yeah

[lone bloom]

While you can keep slowly downing the shields

ofc takes for ever but its doable

[solid anvil]

Then there is us poor hauling players, completely at the mercy of anyone who wants to ice us

[solid anvil]

Yeah, wouldn't be very fun

I have been getting slammed a lot more lately while hauling to the point where I am givin the game a break, just more combat going on in Stanton at stations I think

[lone bloom]

I mean as hauler you are supposed to have escort in the first place, at least for larger expensive hauls - but also in the end without a ship like a cutty blue, antares, or mantis everyone that can take the damage to the hull can just jump away

Aka something like an Idris won't technically "lose" to fighters

it will simply jump away once the shields are down

Happened to an Org event where I was with rustle, first a Idris M appeared, probably solo or ghost crewed, got scared away after some beating from me and 3 other F7's

After that one a crewed Idris K came a few minutes later, and got boarded by us and selfdestructed because it didn't run

Result: A Idris can't compete in PvP

Same will sadly probably apply to the perseus, and that fighter meta will probably only die once bullet speed will be drastically buffed, or armor V1 comes soontm

https://tenor.com/view/the-weeknd-weekend-gif-5804385657210583522

[humble anvil]

I would hope the perseus isnt good for pvp because then it wont get hit with the nerf bat

cough

just like dumb firing torps into the idris's butt

[lone bloom]

It will fuck polarises and idrises though, probably that alone will cause enough noise

[humble anvil]

about to get ,,, 100 shots per gun, 200 total per turret

with repeater damage

and slow ass fire rate

[lone bloom]

Enough for some hammerheads

Cold take down 12 or more hammerheads with that

[humble anvil]

Tbh

With 10k alpha and maelstrom

That's going to hurt. ALOT

[steel sparrow]

Idris's S7 got 11k DPS turrent( not alpha :O)

so S8 go boom?

[humble anvil]

We can hope

What'd they get

6750 alpha per gun at 100 rpm

Jesus Christ

IF Perseus gets 100 RPM. S8 SHOULD, be... 10.1k alpha per gun

anddd if it's 50 rpm. That should be

13.5k alpha per gun

[steel sparrow]

Still feels weird that the difference between S7 and 8 is so small

[humble anvil]

That's significant

[steel sparrow]

doubt*

[humble anvil]

With maelstrom/ a form of it

[steel sparrow]

So similar damage but literally shoots other ships in half?

[humble anvil]

Tbh nothing but a Bengal will deflect s7 lol

[steel sparrow]

will angle effect malstorm?

ppl gonna angle the ironclad like tiger

[humble anvil]

Ah idk it's just physicalized for everything,

Big shot blows hole in ship

[steel sparrow]

Makes sense XD

[lone bloom]

Doubt that even bengal will deflect that

[humble anvil]

Not deflected literally but negate some damage

Or else I saw I mean like maybe 10% lol

But you know how CIG and their infinite wisdom

Want to be surprised if the size fives that do something barely do something to in Idris

[lone bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/wise-gif-18860997

Well what was entry Level of capital size weapons?

Isnt it size 7

Or was it s6

[humble anvil]

Yeah I'm pretty sure size 7 was supposed to be the bare minimum for capital

[lone bloom]

So

Polaris

Is technically

[humble anvil]

Maybe minimum not bare minimum I think that's size 6 now is like the bare minimum

[lone bloom]

Not....?

Meanwhile idris with its s5 dual guns only

Ah nvm got the s7 turret since 4.2

[humble anvil]

Pretty sure that I'm saying that size 4 and size fives will be able to damage the address in the future is just a PR statement

Lol

They'll back pedal somewhere

If everyone knew now that all these small ships will be ineffective

They'd fucking rage

[lone bloom]

I honestly hope that its true and not just PR

[humble anvil]

(probably)

[lone bloom]

Since it will finally break the fighter meta

[humble anvil]

I believe in the future

S4 / S5 against Idris will not do much lol

It punch but not throw a brick

Then Polaris S6 etc, Ares and S8 perseus

[lone bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/spray-water-gun-water-gif-17471257

[humble anvil]

Start kicking and throwing bricks

I go to work now

[lone bloom]

Well that arnor reduces or almost nullifies lower grade weapons makes sense in multiple ways, causes the ares to finally fullfill its use, just like percy then, big chongus ships arent ass anymore in pvp ...

And you still need fighter Support to destroy stuff Like ares as big ship

[humble anvil]

Right lol

Connie's going to get fucked up for sure

Ares should be nimble enough to destroy stuff on a Perseus

[lone bloom]

Connie nerf when

Either make all connies a literal glass cannon with very bad / low armor

or nerf all connies down to S4

[humble anvil]

TBH TBH they still need their Gold pass

Watch Connie's be like close to $600

And they're going to buff the f*** out of them

[lone bloom]

So... a even more pay to winn ship you say? just for even more money

[humble anvil]

In retrospect how big are they in comparison to some of the new ships

Aren't they also like a fraction of the size of the C2 M2A2

Or are they basically the same length

[lone bloom]

[lone tundra]

Connies? They're not that big

[lone bloom]

Especially since their size is quite artifically inflated by the engines

since its pretty much just a tube lol

[lone tundra]

They also sit really high when landed

[lone bloom]

thats literally a design flaw in my view compared to other ships

[humble anvil]

Wow they're small as fk

[lone bloom]

Just sit a starlancer next to a connie

Starlancer appears gigantic in comparison

and someone went with the idea lets give it the same shield size

and only one of them

[lone tundra]

That's just a cargo ship >_>

[lone bloom]

okay

hold on

Weird - isn't it

[lone tundra]

I guess, idk

[lone bloom]

Same argument applies to the taurus xd

and phoenix and aquila

Just give it a second S3 shield like the Tac has lol

[humble anvil]

Star Kitten Perseus incoming

[lone bloom]

That skin on a percy will be count as heresy

And I know Xero will have to get it since he wants every percy skin

Old info but good info I haven't seen

why is there a second elevator next to the freight elevator lol

[humble anvil]

I thought the one elevator will go straight out

[lone bloom]

I thought so too

that its exit, lower deck, middle deck, bridge

[humble anvil]

Yeah lol

[lone bloom]

apparantly not

[humble anvil]

Really hoping that's the case

I'm gonna oof so hard if no exit option

[lone bloom]

I mean its sure nice to have a third exit in form of a smaller elevator next to the freight one

but hope its not the only "personal" entrance

[humble anvil]

Running through the cargo bay to get to another eleva-

[lone bloom]

Meanwhile also the Cargo bay filled to the brim with Cargo

[lone bloom]

But apparantly they wanted to go with single S7 turrets that would have been baaaad lol

[lone bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/dead-group-chat-waiting-cereal-eating-cereal-dead-gif-25969021

damn it

do yall think they would update the Perseus's stats?

They could have easily made an ISC outta it

[steel sparrow]

Single S7 gonna be horrendous

[lone bloom]

Two Ares for the cost of 5 ares and at least 3 crew

[steel sparrow]

fr

single cannon ugly as hell too

[lone bloom]

Well its not ugly, but not good on that ship

Would see that more likely on something like uh Castra Stations

Like huge Ground to Space Railguns

https://tenor.com/view/pvkk-big-gun-cannon-fire-defend-gif-14003131964127062985

Either Furseus or

but dunno if the percy would get name tokens in the first place

But looks like every ship is supposed to get them at some point (because of the org paints and stuff?)

[crystal sleet]

Well not until universal ship naming comes online, so itll just have to be named in spirit

[lone bloom]

I mean Rustle wants to name his RSI Apollo...

Because you won't shoot at a Medical Ship, right?

Rustle planning literal warcrimes

Honestly, considering they dropped the idris on us this year, i feel like anything could happen for the perseus at this point. If the perseus already had the chance for anything, then now the perseus has a chance for everything

[pine root]

The Geneva suggestion

[crystal sleet]

perhaps strapping several high power weapons on a medical transport is a good idea...

And before they show the Perseus as a teaser in the alien week behind the ships inside Star Citizen

Like we'll see a Perseus landing in the background

I'd f****** bust

But TBH RSI has no business being in an alien week video

Maybe they'll talk about the vandal and then be like oh yeah I remember an RSI ship that killed two vandal destroyers

[crystal sleet]

The blue glass looks hot, i hope we get tinted glass with paints

The size of the turret fits so much better now, the s7 were a tad bit small for tye size of the perseus visually

[round zodiac]

MFers been real quiet about hte perseus

Year of Playability but i aint got no reason to play without my Perseus

[humble anvil]

Perseus; the perfect ship for Merc missions

[lone bloom]

I bet we will get red tainted glass at least

[lone bloom]

Unplayable without percy

Also Rustle and me noticed something weird about the percy yesterday

The elevator that leads to the upper floor and bridge will very surely not have a "exit ship" floor level

Since there is no elevator door on the bottom of the percy at that area, and the bottom turret arc is in the way aswell meaning we have to enter always from the cargo bay room (since there is a personal elevator next to the freight elevator)

Negative: We cannot go directly to the bridge nor leaving the ship via usage of one elevator
Positive: That makes the Perseus pretty unboardable since all entrances all lead to the easiest defendable room due to the highground of the catwalk

https://tenor.com/view/star-wars-i-have-the-high-ground-gif-4939538

[steel sparrow]

not another MSR situation

[lone bloom]

And we all know highground always winns

[lone bloom]

MSR / Spirit situation by now*

[steel sparrow]

real, C2 too

[lone bloom]

ah right

[steel sparrow]

did they plan on increasing the elevator speed?

[lone bloom]

they did on the Polaris

so, maybe?

But Percy is also not as heigh as the polaris

nvm

Looks kinda even that the percy is in terms of playable floor height, higher than the polaris lmao

by a meter or such

[cold spruce]

Did they just change it from 2 remote/automated turrets to just remote?-

[lone bloom]

I hope not

https://tenor.com/view/simpsons-desk-flames-riot-down-with-homework-gif-12778212689976656977

[lone tundra]

I think they did - that update was 3 weeks ago.

It was redundant and irrelevant because automated turrets are just bladed turrets and all turrets can be automated, so it doesn't matter what the turret is actually called - it only matters what default equipment the ship actually comes with

[lone bloom]

Well coping for that it still comes with 2 Turret blades then

[cold spruce]

Fingers crossed. It'll be a bad idea to not include them on flight ready since that's what it was originally advertised for 😅

[lone bloom]

Doesn't matter how it was originially advertised

They always can argue its a alpha and you bought it in concept which clearly states that they can adjust and change stuff about the ship before and after release

[crystal sleet]

Well either way since all remote turrets if not most are meant to be bladable as aftermarket, so it shouldnt matter whether it comes stock or not

[lone bloom]

all turrets are bladable except for PDC's

since... they're automated either way lol

[crystal sleet]

So its just a big "whatever shrug" if it comes stock lol

[lone bloom]

well it would be still a nice addition if it comes in stock by it

so you don't have to buy them in the first place except for the manned turrets (if you go the full blade route)

[crystal sleet]

I suppose itd depends if cig wants to make turret blades affordable or make them akin to military comps

[lone bloom]

I assume they will be somewhat affordable

like 400-500K per blade (?) considering you won't lose them with T2 insurance, and also never have to repair or pay them or anything else, compared to AI crew or player crew

Since its supposed to be the cheapest variant to automate turrets

oh yeah if it comes in stock with it, you wouldn't have to worry about T2 insurance lol

unless you wanna mod the ship further than stock

[crystal sleet]

Especially if its on an lti ship lol

[lone bloom]

So having it stock would be a huge W

Especially for early game after a wipe and once Insurance stuff applies (even if that will probably only apply once 1.0 drops=

[crystal sleet]

The moment the Perseus patch drops, for a short moment before the idris and polaris spawns, the Perseus becomes the most powerful warship in the game

[lone bloom]

just before idris and polaris spawns?

We just gonna fucking swarm them with our percy fleet

Before any cap ships have a chance to spawn in

I wanna see like 5 perseus's coming out of hangars at city space ports every few minutes lol

[lone bloom]

also big advantage of percy, it probably won't have to deal with docking queue

Since it does not neccessary have to dock

[lone bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/armco-salute-star-citizen-port-olisar-gif-1867491126996170897

Nah hurston way worse, crusader is at least shiny

[steel sparrow]

supposedly we nuke a gas giant like Crusader

would it actually explode cause its majority is made out of hydrogen

[grave canyon]

i mean unless you give it enough energy to start creating a self-sustaining fusion reaction probably not given there would not be much oxygen to sustain combustion

[grave canyon]

nah fuck crusader

[lone bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/heyy-gif-928885423345838263

all my homies hate crusader

[lone bloom]

Meanwhile Crusader being my main residence for like 5 patches

[grave canyon]

the only place i know how to properly navigate is a18 sooooooo

[lone bloom]

lol

[grave canyon]

the only way i know in crusader is from habs to the spaceport route kek in case i somehow spawn there

hurston i only know spaceport to the attrition shop

idek when i last went to MT

[lone bloom]

I can remember me searching for like 30 min on area 18 for the ship weapons shop

Till I decided to search on youtube xd

[grave canyon]

ye, but a18 was my first residence so i just know where everything is

therefore i never reside anywhere else

[lone bloom]

MT was my first and after that lorville (because it was easier to farm bounties there lol) and crusader once they finally removed the 90Km atmosphere

I mean Crusader won't be my permanent residence either way

Hoping for Sherman Station soontm

Gonna build my main Base probably somewhere next to it similar to the picture with the F7A

Being always able to restock stuff for my my base (like medical stuff, or resources to build or such or farming) and of course most important: Refuelling of my beloved

https://tenor.com/view/star-citizen-perseus-hammerhead-ram-gif-17374513556486374363

[lone bloom]

I also wonder if we will be able to build buildings that can make out of the air and such hydrogen so we are able to at least refuel that one on our bases on our own (like the one thing in Space Engineers, if you know you know)

[humble anvil]

Delicious

[lone bloom]

If the 'org' doesn't place the space station near Castra you won't see me often there

[humble anvil]

Indeed. I'm curious where they're going to.....

[lone bloom]

Castra

I will force them

ngl Castra is either way in a very great farming spot

[humble anvil]

I don't like pyro, Stanton is getting old, and

[lone bloom]

Castra itsself is high security

but has jump gates to pyro and Nyx

Pyro and Nyx being both the most valuable systems in terms of looting / missions at that point

So its the perfect spot to start operations from

[humble anvil]

You got a good point

Baby steps but a safe system to call home

[lone bloom]

and also could use Castra I aka Bullseye for training stuff

How was Castra II named? Cascom if i remember correctly lol

The one with the sherman station

[humble anvil]

Wouldn't it be great if; security rating of systems; crime stat achieved; comms from the local security of that system; meet a criteria; police start showing up

[lone bloom]

EVE police lmao

[humble anvil]

Out doing an org event and suddenly got police showing up because someone accidentally pressed a CS

[lone bloom]

I mean police is supposed to show up if you attack outposts of players

[humble anvil]

Back to work I go

[lone bloom]

and depending on how much security the more force arrives

[lone bloom]

Even probably bases on cascom won't be raidable due to high security assumably, I will probably still build defence stuff like walls, turrets and shields just simply because of pure looks lol

Also if Percy won't win at least one ship showdown after being released i'm gonna rant

[humble anvil]

@lone bloom When do they run ship showdown

How they determine BIS?

[lone bloom]

Just before IAE no?

[humble anvil]

August

But it's for flyable

[lone bloom]

so first BIS for Percy will be in 2026

almost an entire year post release at that point

[humble anvil]

Ye

[lone bloom]

Not a very good spot for BIS

Since the 'release' hype will be over already and will jump to another ship

[humble anvil]

Unless perseus comes out before it

Xdd so idk

Brb

[lone bloom]

It will become unbalancable lmao

[jolly pine]

need it lore accurate taking on ships 4x its size🙏🏼

[lone bloom]

4x its size... so javelin lmao?

I can see it being able to wound or even destroy depending on the situation polaris and Idrises and everything in that direction but not something like a javelin or such

[foggy beacon]

easy

turn percy into a size 100 torpedo and ram it into Javelin's reactor

[lone bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/astarion-bg3-ajsemprini-really-i-mean-yes-but-really-gif-8510762279903375257

[foggy beacon]

actually

now that I think of it

have Percy shoot down Javelin's torpedo tube with that S8

and detonate the torpedo inside

gonna be a hard shot but definitely possible

[lone bloom]

I doubt that the game allows that

Also I wouldn't like to fly infront of a javelin since at least 2 dual S7 turrets can look at you including the Quad S10 turret

Currently the best way to take out bigger ships than your own is just to stay behind the engines very close lol probably will also apply to the javelin, Percy may be able to take a few engines out and the main turret but prob not gonna disable it fully let alone destroy

[foggy beacon]

yeah

Important info about turrets and large ships they talked about today:

It's not a coding issue, it's a game design issue; their current plans are made to retain the fantasy of piloting a capital ship first and foremost, and they are tackling this design issue from multiple angles.,

Turrets currently lack any medium-range option; flak is one new medium-range turret weapon type they are experimenting with.,

The Engineering gameplay systems will make 'hard deaths' disappear altogether, as ships will no longer have one singular health bar, but many different health bars across each of their segments and components. Current hard-death explosions will occur only if the ship's reactor is critically damaged and not repaired or scuttled in time.,

A physicalized damage model will make laser weapons heat the impact area, while ballistic weapons can potentially penetrate based on the projectile's physics and the impact area's armor model.,

New armor models will prevent smaller and even mid-sized ballistics from penetrating at all, making light and medium fighters need to get close to the capital ship to target specific soft segments, and thus getting in range of the ship's turrets. In one lead's words: "you shouldn't be able to use a pistol (light fighter) to blow up a tank (capital ship, specifically an Idris/Polaris)." This, in turn, will move heavy fighters further into their intended roles, especially ones like the Ares which are specifically designed to target large ships.

[humble anvil]

Idris T turret about to shatter or make my dreams for Perseus come true

If they want to give it 10k alpha per gun but limit it's ammunition, I won't be mad

Like the Idris

[cursive drum]

Flak will let capital ships hit at longer range. Alternative option: Make Lasers Beams and make the flight model suck less. Flak is good and all but like, if Flak is required for combat, does that mean that all other weapons won’t work at the longest ranges?

[steel sparrow]

U know how to solve light fighters kiteing at long range?

fucking hit scan laser weapons

or maybe just scatter guns

like very long range scatter guns

[cursive drum]

Exactly!

[cursive drum]

This is basically just Flak.

But… Hit scan lasers like IRL would be great!

[round zodiac]

supposedly beam weapons will be that, no?

beams are the coolest PDC

[cursive drum]

I hope so. But I also heard they were only size 6 and up.

[grave canyon]

i need me a perseus and i need me a goated paint for it

[steel sparrow]

ngl they could have added smaller laser weapons that needed to have a warm up time

basically like inferno dragon

if yall know what I mean

[cursive drum]

What’s this?

[grave canyon]

if you solve that then the percy is pretty much invincible unless you get two percy's to fight it

because any big ship you'll be able to run from anyway

if ships have no weaknesses then it's a degenerate gameplay loop and is not fun for anyone because everyone will just use that ship

[round zodiac]

ez target

worst ms paint of my life

[steel sparrow]

basically tick damage but increases over time

[humble anvil]

Nocturne be coming

This black paint

Perseus Beam turret be coming

I like ballistics but I'll probably end up using the beam weapons if they are actually a thing

@crystal sleet You like beam weapons don't you

i will jizz

dark black paint with bright blue trim ong

I mean its.... better than non military i guess still

Grade A military powerplant plz

[lone bloom]

[humble anvil]

That's all we need

[lone bloom]

You just don't wanna grind for it

[humble anvil]

No

It's easy for powerplant

But also I don't want to grind for it

Powerplant from hurston wikelo

Ez pz

[crystal sleet]

https://tenor.com/view/spacebattleshipyamato-starblazer-gif-12898464

[lone bloom]

I just hope there will be other ways to get S3 miltiary comps other than hoping and grinding for ever for wikelo and coping to get a military grade large ship you don't want

and just wanna salvage for the comps

Because RNG is shit

[humble anvil]

Called buy industrial Grade A shield

It's literally better

[lone bloom]

Like - make them guaranteed drops in the area 18 dungeon they wanna do

[humble anvil]

By like 3s

[crystal sleet]

surely theyll make it RNG, but with patrol contracts. Like specific ships have the chance to spawn with s3 miltary comps, like how ace pilots spawn in

[lone bloom]

or that that would be fine aswell lol

and they're damaged (because engineering)

and you have to fix them back up to actually use them

[crystal sleet]

that is a decent method

[lone bloom]

but uh actually I don't think that will work lol

you cant pull out S3+ comps

so far i know

[humble anvil]

I'm going Grade A military powerplant. Industrial shields. Probably civ coolers

[lone bloom]

why indu shield, they just have higher HP but way slower regen

Do prefer military for the better regen, especially if the regen is passive on those sized ships

[crystal sleet]

industrials are superior in total shield pool

[humble anvil]

Military 3 Sec Regen time. Industrial 5

[lone bloom]

lmao

[crystal sleet]

military regens quick sure, but the Perseus probably wont be fast enough to shield cycle or retreat to regen shields

[humble anvil]

Depends on what happens when it release

[lone bloom]

who is talking about retreat

[humble anvil]

No more shield cycle Xero

[lone bloom]

just try to face the shield face that is damaged to another direction

[crystal sleet]

people who use every ship like fighters

[lone bloom]

literally what I do with a SL

[crystal sleet]

what shield type are s3 again?

[humble anvil]

Parapet

[crystal sleet]

of theyre quadrant, it could be managable

[humble anvil]

Quad

[lone bloom]

All S3 are quadrant

[crystal sleet]

perfect

[lone bloom]

So you have 4 shield faces

so you can just turn your ship to shield your damaged shield

[crystal sleet]

so ravits technique can def work

[lone bloom]

and take advantage of the military comp

Literally i struggled with the SL Max in VHRT because of bubble shield at the start, since it got quadrant shield those are no issue anymore

[crystal sleet]

considering the type of ships the Perseus is meant to kill, thats very much a solid tactic

[humble anvil]

Could go 1 military shield 1 industrial

To get tick Regen

[lone bloom]

can you mix shields?

ALways went with the same type

[crystal sleet]

you can, but idk what the effects would be

[lone bloom]

probably a mix

aka instead of 3 or 5 sec regen

you get 4

(?)

[humble anvil]

Get a fast DMG down refen

[crystal sleet]

once again the Perseus wins again

[humble anvil]

Need to test which shield prioritize when at 0 trying to regen

In which slot

[lone bloom]

But

what if

it gets a third shield slot

and you go indu, military, military?

[humble anvil]

1 fast down Regen

2 big boys

[crystal sleet]

if anything, the top most slot should take priority, or the stat that is superior between the shields

[lone bloom]

...

[crystal sleet]

equivelant to Wave Motion Shields

[lone bloom]

so.... fast regen and better health pool?

xD

[crystal sleet]

yuh, i suppose

[lone bloom]

I mean I do think it will get a third shield

and hammerhead will get buffed and gets a third one aswell

[humble anvil]

I think it will

With current balance

[lone bloom]

Since... its fucking stupid a relatively large sub capital gets the same amount of shield as a C2 like, bro whats that? xd

[humble anvil]

• combat ship

A2 combat has 3

C2 cargo. 2

[lone bloom]

ANd people complain either way that the HH is way too squishy

[crystal sleet]

maybe they originally pictured the hammerhead being right behind the front lines, covered by eachother and out of direct fire from larger ships

[lone bloom]

so the A2 has more than a military combat sub capital which is way larger and needs more crew

lmao

[humble anvil]

Design of a different time

[crystal sleet]

ye

[lone bloom]

"out of direct fire from larger ship" I can kill a HH with a F7C within a few minutes

[humble anvil]

Or we're getting 1.33m hull hp only 2 shields

Calling

[crystal sleet]

that was before the powercreep that the hh wouldve been effective

[lone bloom]

Seriously I would say

HH Buff to 600K Hull HP

aka trippling it

and a third shield

and Percy being at 1.2 million HP due to having heavy armor

aka doubling it from the HH

[humble anvil]

It'll get buffed when they go over the archetype

[lone bloom]

then make the percy slightly slower, even while being smaller, but also like 10 million more expensive ingame

and reputation locked behind mercenary rep (once reputation locks are there)

[humble anvil]

It'll be crafting only

Can't be bought with Auec

[lone bloom]

or that

[lone bloom]

that would really suck for me then if I have to go for it ingame tho

[humble anvil]

Just like the Polaris

[crystal sleet]

and you cant craft every part of the ship, needing to go around and look for Perseus wrecks to salvage what little you can find to finish your own

[lone bloom]

That would be cool lol

kinda like what I saw from gameplay from Dune awakening

You have to salvage parts from quadrocopter (?) wrecks

so you can build at some point your own

[crystal sleet]

ornithopters

[lone bloom]

(ngl kinda dissappointed from the game from what i saw)

[crystal sleet]

is the ornithopter the only flying vehicle you can get?

[lone bloom]

But even there you can still reputation lock it

I mean they said we will be able to BUY the F7A at some point

But only if you work your way up in mercenary guild

[crystal sleet]

100% rep locked

[lone bloom]

And either buy it once you have the reputaTIon

or buy the blueprint to craft it yourself for cheaper money

but obv have to get the materials

but in both cases its rep locked

[crystal sleet]

imagine if you had to buy multiple different blueprints for each part of teh ship, like how in warframe you have to get prime part BPs to build the complete prime weapon, which also needs a BP

[lone bloom]

I mean blueprint is probably cheaper and more efficient than buying it directly, but you have to have a base including manufacture hangar(s) and also the materials so basebuilding if you want to be efficient is a huge requirement

[lone bloom]

"yeah it just... takes a whole month to build a single piece"

[crystal sleet]

WTB Gladius Wing BP; Gladius Fuselage BP; Gladius Cockpit Frame BP; Gladius Avionics Suite BP; Gladius Engine BP; Gladius Fuel and Hydraulics Manifold BP; Gladius Electrical System BP; Gladius Fuel Tank BP for 6000 MG Scrips

WTB Gladius BP for 145 MG Scrips

I wonder how people that allign with the pirate / unlawfull guild are supposed to get those blueprints or ships then, I know they can steal ships and make them theirs if their rep there is high enough for cheaper money than buying said ship, but that requires them straight to go for PvP and also to look out for the ship they want, no?

Since the Unlawfull guild kinda blocks the access to mercenary

and obv also the other way around

[crystal sleet]

maybe unlawful players can get a contract (locked behind rep) that leads the player to a server bunker that holds blueprint data
