Perseus Pals

[lone bloom]

Like, hu?

[swift lake]

Eeeeh no. Not in nautical terms.

[azure fulcrum]

CIG be smoking the good stuff

[timid wind]

just 2 main turret gunners + the pilot (me) until engineering comes

[humble anvil]

COMMAND WHAT CHRIS

[normal fossil]

Yes which equals 3

[lone bloom]

Its a 'smaller' gunship compared to huge naval ships - there is no need for a commander on a vessel that isn't supposed to be the flagship nor command center

[humble anvil]

Exactly Ravit

[azure fulcrum]

I command chris he reworks perseus and delay release another 2 years

[lone bloom]

nah release it and do the rework in background*

[azure fulcrum]

right so there's no command its just a bridge with a pilot

[lone bloom]

"The ship is at your command" typical said sentence in sci fi movies

[swift lake]

People who sail ships are steersmen or pilots. The CO is the overall authority of operations across all spheres. (From my own naval experience) - And all navy ships has a commander in some form, no matter how small.

[lone bloom]

and mostly its the pilot...

[sand hound]

you say smaller but its literally a 120 meter space ship

[azure fulcrum]

nah I don't want whatever this thing is to even be ingame

[lone bloom]

Smaller - compared to larger actual naval vessels speaking of Javelin, Idris, Bengal

[normal fossil]

Yall are way too negative for a ship that you haven’t even seen yet

[grave canyon]

sees 2 chairs in a tight shot
concludes ship must be terrible

chill tf out guys

[azure fulcrum]

literally got no proof

[timid wind]

120m is small compared to a command ship like the bengal

[lone bloom]

even the Polaris is labeled as Small by the UEE

[sand hound]

this is 127 meters irl with a commander on board

holy cope

[lone bloom]

so we gonna compare now the Bengal to an aircraft carrier?

[grave canyon]

also have you literally like never played a game where there's a bunch of comms going around like there would be in a, you know, fleet

[lone bloom]

Or the Retribution?

[swift lake]

Its a corvette, its supposed to be light on crew demand and thus cost. It's essentially a heavy patrol craft.

[sand hound]

commander =/= air craft carrier

[fluid matrix]

no

[sand hound]

do you think only flag ships have commanders?

[lone bloom]

So means any ship now needs a commander?

[azure fulcrum]

well done that's 100% a perseus

[sand hound]

every ship has its own commander

[sand hound]

yes??

[lone bloom]

Yeah, and in most SCi FI movies / games its the pilot...

[grave canyon]

every big ship that has a bunch of turrets, yeah

most sci fi games and movies are wrong

[sand hound]

kirk was not pilot

darth vadar was not pilot

[lone bloom]

Yeah guess what, SC is a sci fi game

[grave canyon]

when you have a lot of comms and chaos going around you will really really really love that the pilot is not the commander

[sand hound]

any star destroyer commander was not pilot

[swift lake]

Its not. - Think of a Star Destroyer. - You have a guy walking around giving orders. He's not flying the ship.

[azure fulcrum]

ehh he kinda was lol

[lone bloom]

So we comparing a flagship again now to a smaller escort vessel???

[grave canyon]

flying the ship is a huge task and communicating and coordinating is an even huger task

[swift lake]

Ok, think of the Hammerhead Corvette from Rogue one. 2 pilots, one guy stadning giving commands.

Smal ship

[sand hound]

this ship had a commander and it wasnt pilot

[lone bloom]

Lets be real here aswell- literally nobody plays the commander on their ship in SC aswell, even if there is a given seat for it, simply because 90% of the time the commander is the pilot^^

[sand hound]

and its the smallest ship in the empire that wasnt a fighter

so just admit ur wrong

[grave canyon]

let's be real as well, there's no need for more than one ship in any content in sc right now aside from pve

[swift lake]

Its not about being right or wrong its a debate.

[lone bloom]

Correction - it had a officer since a commander isn't flying/onboard such a small vessel - but yes that specific ship had someone on its "command" being not the pilot

[azure fulcrum]

peak Clown Incompetent Gaming

[sand hound]

what does CO stand for

[swift lake]

Commanding Officer

[sand hound]

thank you

[swift lake]

Could be an officer of any rank

Not just a commander

[sand hound]

correct

[grave canyon]

when you have 20 ships and there's a command radio channel and you have to also communicate within your ship and maneuver and get situational awareness you will appreciate that the pilot is not the commander

[swift lake]

XO is the Executive officer. Also can be any rank

[lone bloom]

"officer" brother

There is a difference between commander - and commanding officer

[sand hound]

way to goal post

[fallow wharf]

so no captains chair?

[grave canyon]

imagine one singular person trying to talk to the 5 crew of their perseus, the 10-15 other ships with them, understand the situation with tens of ships around them and fly at the same time

[azure fulcrum]

I have zero hope for perseus having a nice interior or exterior BUT there is still hope that it'll perform well

[sand hound]

^

[timid wind]

doesnt NASA use the word "Commander" for the pilot of the space shuttle? or any other spacecraft for that matter

[sand hound]

yes

[timid wind]

so why cant the commander fly here

[uneven thistle]

Yeah, and your mom uses it as well.
I'll let you figure out for what exactly

[azure fulcrum]

what mean?

[swift lake]

He is also the CO, technically.

[uneven thistle]

Cap chair

[timid wind]

why is this dude personally attacking me

[lone bloom]

.... you're just literally wrong

[sand hound]

because nasa is simplified

[uneven thistle]

send a modmail about it

[grave canyon]

because flying a singular spaceship through a chunk of space that's literally empty is very different from flying a spaceship (way more maneuverable than the fships nasa flies btw) in coordination with many others while in a chaotic situation

[sand hound]

dude you literally goal shifted the argument from percy shouldnt have a commanders chair because it should be pilot and when proven wrong with real world examples and sci-fi examples you shifted your argument to "umm aktually its CO not commander"

[grave canyon]

the driver of the car can also look at navigation and talk to passengers, therefore tank drivers should also be able to do their navigation and comms

[azure fulcrum]

wait a minute if thats the captain chair then the co and pilot seat are in front but then the remote turret access seats are not on the bridge?

[fallow wharf]

So its not what we think this ship is?

[sand hound]

maybe got moved to the weird cheeks

[grave canyon]

there's much more nuance to being a commander/captain than to just telling people within your ship what to do

[sand hound]

with the airlock

[azure fulcrum]

I like your thinking

[uneven thistle]

You all missed what I said earlier, the pilot seat will be front and center

[azure fulcrum]

what the fuck does that mean lol point me out the pilot seat then

[uneven thistle]

I LITERALLY SHOWED IT AND YOU ASKED: WhAt ThIS????

[sand hound]

yeah no that middle seat is much further back than the two in the front

[timid wind]

why the side chairs are so far up

[azure fulcrum]

YOU SAID CAPTAIN CHAIR NOT PILOT

[sand hound]

unless it scoots all the way up

[fallow wharf]

captain seat is not =/= pilot seat

[timid wind]

it looks like the mfd blocks ur vision lol

[uneven thistle]

I AM THE CAPTAIN!

[azure fulcrum]

A CAPTAIN IS NOT A PILOT

[reef wind]

I like the funny chair

[tawny fern]

is this gonna be like the zeus where you fly the ship from the right or left side

[azure fulcrum]

https://tenor.com/view/captain-phillips-tom-hanks-captain-richard-phillips-barkhad-abdi-abduwali-muse-gif-5096442

[uneven thistle]

Get a fucking life LMAO

[sand hound]

probably

[uneven thistle]

You know damn well what I mean

[sand hound]

the polaris has it

[azure fulcrum]

XDDD fair

[sand hound]

aswell

[swift lake]

Aight, Imma take a pause from this chaos lol.

[lone tundra]

Looks like it, yeah. At least I hope so

[tawny fern]

yeah, that makes sense

[lone bloom]

Because a CO isn't a commander, a Pilot can be a CO - and only being on the Pilot seat therefor. a commander as rank is something fully different.
Yes a Commander outranks the CO by every means (since the highest rank is the CO basically) but tell me why a ship like a Perseus would need a commander onboard? it has 2 main turrets that don't require that much coordination, nor its the flagship of a fleet

[azure fulcrum]

dude I hope its the captain seat and the front seats on the sides are pilot and co pilot

every medium to large ship has a copilot seat

🤷‍♂️

[lone bloom]

But as I said prior, it would be only there to artificially inflate the crew size, since nobody gonna use that seat ever other than just to "oh look shiny"

[timid wind]

but theres 2 remote turrets no? where would u control them?

[grave canyon]

anything that has a crew of more than 2-3 and is expected to be operated in tandem with otherr things gets seperate people for "commanding"

[fallow wharf]

@uneven thistle Timo if this is Perseus and Pumba if it is not

[uneven thistle]

I'm not going to say shit anymore, I don't want to get someone in trouble.
But don't worry about the middle seat.

[grave canyon]

that's basically standard military doctrine and for good reason

[timid wind]

controlling a remote turret from the center seat doesnt make sense to me

[azure fulcrum]

ehhh some other room

[tawny fern]

what if you were my copilot and we held hands flying the perseus

[fallow wharf]

i need to know if i can kick the chair or not

[timid wind]

i mean the copilot seat controls at least one

but the other?

[azure fulcrum]

it does for the paladin correct

[reef wind]

This ship better have cup holders or someone getting hit with a beer can

[sand hound]

maybe there is a disconnect, nobody is arguing that the percy will have a commander on board. What is being argued is that there will be a CO and it will not be the pilot

[lone bloom]

Well, yes a CO, but not a commander^^

[timid wind]

so where do u control the other one

[sand hound]

commander was used in place of CO

[azure fulcrum]

maybe the captain seat

[timid wind]

thats what im saying, it doesnt make sense

[tawny fern]

that would actually be so fucking sick

[timid wind]

so maybe the middle seat is the pilot seat

[azure fulcrum]

I know none of this picture makes any sense

[sand hound]

even if it moves all the way to the front it would need MFD's connected to the chair and none of the other chairs have them connected

[azure fulcrum]

yep thats what I said

[sand hound]

if that chair had MFD's you probably would see them up and to the side when the chair is in that position so you can sit

[grave canyon]

hold up so this entire argument comes from semantics, nice

[timid wind]

unless theres a desk at the front

[sand hound]

unless CIG intentionally hid them

[grave canyon]

email cig that their ships actually don't have commanders and it's a CO seat

[sand hound]

there is no desk you can see its not there

[grave canyon]

jesus christ

next remote turret seats will become wso seats

[lone bloom]

(likely will even be named captain seat either way )

[grave canyon]

[steel sparrow]

Yall flew the 600i before? That layout is pretty sick, feels like ur commanding a crew

[sand hound]

you can see the two mfd's for the 2 front chairs not the back one

[grave canyon]

it's a seat for the guy who coordinates the comms and what the ship does

simple as that

[timid wind]

whats that then

[azure fulcrum]

wtf

[timid wind]

is that not a desk

[grave canyon]

very fucking fair from the mods

[azure fulcrum]

nothing just set dressing

[sand hound]

the floor

[grave canyon]

you see 3 chairs and a door and you immediately go doomer mode

jesus christ it's 3 chairs and a door chill out

[timid wind]

that is not the floor wtf

its a desk

im calling it

[azure fulcrum]

yeah thats the problem it's bland

[timid wind]

now shush

[sand hound]

mfd's are in the red

why would the mfd be on the floor

this isnt drake

[uneven thistle]

Only Drake does that shit

[timid wind]

desk, and there can be more than those overhead ones

[grave canyon]

you've seen 3 chairs and a door in a tiny room from one bad angle and you conclude the ship is ruined

[sand hound]

the desk on the floor?

do you see how high up the chairs are?

[tawny fern]

its a standing desk

[sand hound]

they dont move DOWN

[timid wind]

well yes it joins the floor

[tawny fern]

perseus is ergo friendly for bad backs

[grave canyon]

you guys have been deluding yourselves too hard here

[azure fulcrum]

it's entirely reasonable because its nothing like the concept and it looks very bad'

[grave canyon]

mate

what

we had no cockpit images from concept what do you mean

[azure fulcrum]

maybe the pilot seat is lower and this thing is the MFD somehow?

[uneven thistle]

Mods, can you close this channel until everyone has taken some sleep?

[timid wind]

the floor in the middle may be lower you flipping twit

[azure fulcrum]

we literally had but OK m8

[grave canyon]

where

[sand hound]

if they put the pilot head level with the beam that goes across the glass the percy will be worse than connie

[lone bloom]

The "shiv" exclusive

[uneven thistle]

Show me, I want to see them

[grave canyon]

you talkin bout this?

3 chairs and a door, seems true to concept to me

[uneven thistle]

[grave canyon]

they moved one seat back omg bro ship is ruined

[lone bloom]

lets just ignore the two missing desks

[azure fulcrum]

[grave canyon]

grow up

[timid wind]

see? desk. and the floor in the middle is lower

[swift lake]

The world is clearly ending, and we are all doomed for our poor investment in pixels.

[steel sparrow]

[azure fulcrum]

yeah that's what I'm saying the MFDs are right behind the middle strut

[timid wind]

pilot seat on rails in the center, side seats control the remote turrets, thats it im calling it. good night.

[grave canyon]

one chair was moved back and the useless clutter was removed from the ship it's now dead guys

[humble anvil]

IM GOING NUCLEAR

[uneven thistle]

The most important thing that a lot of people don't realize, is that the big boom-boom on the underside is on a rail system as well.
Because it moves out of the way for landings.

[humble anvil]

https://tenor.com/view/frustrated-gif-7763054

[azure fulcrum]

go ragebait somewhere else if you don't have anything to add to the conversation

[grave canyon]

it's not ragebait

you're legit delusional

[humble anvil]

[grave canyon]

you see one pixelated picture and you're going insane

[sand hound]

thats not true

[azure fulcrum]

ok man message recieved now move on

[lone bloom]

we already had that topic lol

[timid wind]

and the floor is lower in the middle

[uneven thistle]

Bottom turret on rail, pilot seat on rail...
Might as well call it a Railen

[lone bloom]

Railen coming next month confirmed

[sand hound]

you can see the bottom turret right there

you even see the number 2

[timid wind]

oh snap i never realized it

[grave canyon]

if you look a little harder you can see the text "we are doomed"

[uneven thistle]

I don't see that at all from that shitty shot

[swift lake]

My main hope is that they havent smoothed ALL the sharp edges of the design. I want my goddamn pocket star destroyer.

[humble anvil]

the turret may or may not be on rail

[timid wind]

belly turret removed completely

[grave canyon]

can you pls look

[grave canyon]

and tell me what that is behind the turret

[lone bloom]

It has to be on rail if the main elevator is supposed to go to the ground - if not - the only entrance is the one the cargo bay

[uneven thistle]

It's on a rail alright

[sand hound]

do you see it now

[humble anvil]

i dont see how they're going to get that turret over a 90degree hump

[sand hound]

clear number 2

[humble anvil]

and slant it

[grave canyon]

if only it could fkn turn

that would be goated yknow

[humble anvil]

unless its got a huge cut out

[grave canyon]

wait it can turn

[humble anvil]

maybe the uhhhh

that block will lower and raise

[grave canyon]

mate

[humble anvil]

like it'll lower and the turret will rail back

[grave canyon]

it can just turn back and slide out of the way

[timid wind]

or maybe the landing gear are just big enough to accomodate the turret

[sand hound]

its not on rails

[sand hound]

use your eyes

[timid wind]

just dont land on a mountain peak and ur fine

[uneven thistle]

Ow sorry, my cat was on my keyboard

[grave canyon]

top tier ragebait

[uneven thistle]

wHY ARE you spamming?

[timid wind]

can you shut up

[azure fulcrum]

SQ42 is on rails

[sand hound]

the cope is insane

[azure fulcrum]

SC is a on rails theme park MMO?

[uneven thistle]

Your mom got railed too last night

[azure fulcrum]

yormandi is on rails?

[fluid matrix]

railen

[grave canyon]

also

the part that attaches to the rail can just extend

so the turret stays same elevation while it goes back

[lone bloom]

well I cannot see it

[grave canyon]

the attachment to the rail just gets taller

[humble anvil]

hm

[grave canyon]

regardless guys you should keep talking about how one chair being moved back is the end of all

basically sums up this whole conversation

[steel sparrow]

Turns out it’s the carrack sized ship they were working on

[azure fulcrum]

we got a cockpit with 3 chairs thats it not much else going on there

[lone bloom]

So it cannot be the perseus - right

its the carrack sized - other RSI ship

[azure fulcrum]

turns out its a perseus variant

with bespoke beam weapons

[timid wind]

arrastra

[lone bloom]

Perseus Cargo Variant

[lone bloom]

Please no

[humble anvil]

guys

its not the perseus 4head

its the rsi salvage ship

[lone bloom]

Its surely the Perseus "UPS" variant

[humble anvil]

4head

[steel sparrow]

Hmmmmmmmm

[humble anvil]

basebuilding varient

[azure fulcrum]

lets see if theres any spectrum shenanigans on this

[lone tundra]

yeah it's clearly one of these

[pine root]

Ah yes the M50 XL

[humble anvil]

Port Olisar?

no

[lone bloom]

Its probably the one on the very far right (the not so obvious looking station which is clearly a ship)

[humble anvil]

that aint my baby

[timid wind]

yes its the kingship

[humble anvil]

that is my baby

PORT OLISAR MUH BELOVED

meteor is also blue

[azure fulcrum]

yes

[amber ivy]

Best mod imo

[uneven thistle]

Ex-mod LMAO

[azure fulcrum]

blue stripe on meteor too sadly

[humble anvil]

so everything is off the zeus kit

no wonder perseus looks like play dough

but polaris

[lone bloom]

(they just fucked up the color scheme on the polaris - we knew about that since its release)

and somehow didn't fixxed it till this day lol

[lone bloom]

Ngl, if they changed the perseus like that, im even more worried about the galaxy and arrastra now

[humble anvil]

thats the fucking galaxy

[azure fulcrum]

omg

carrack sized

[humble anvil]

Imagine they fuckingggg ghosted progress on it to surprise drop it

[lone bloom]

Thats also extremely different than galaxy concept artwork

BUT

Galaxy has a Captain/"Commander" seat

[lone bloom]

but they said galaxy won't enter production until percy released

I mean would be a big surprise

[lone bloom]

just noticed it also has the struts similar to the percy

so we can still cope

[azure fulcrum]

lets cope and hope like never before

[lone bloom]

ngl but i loved the bridge the galaxy has as concept

[azure fulcrum]

https://tenor.com/view/copium-cat-gif-27161395

more struts than window

[pine root]

Idris I guess

[azure fulcrum]

chris loves his struts

[versed gazelle]

If that is truly the sneak peak for the perseus you think were getting it before IAE usually like like 1-2 weeks after a sneak peak we get that?

[azure fulcrum]

"looks so big 120 meters"

[lone bloom]

No.

We know the Perseus is already flight ready

But they won't release it before IAE, at very best, a week before IAE in PTU

(also there won't be any other patch before IAE either way)

[azure fulcrum]

I feel drained

the perseus fatigue is real

[lone bloom]

At this point we have to touch the Idris

Go brrr

See this is weird. Don't you want a screen to look at remote turret?

[lone bloom]

There is

Removed the Desks for the shit road Block barrier thing

[humble anvil]

Oh the

Ye

Right

Manned turrets are actually remote now

And can be controlled by the two copilot seats

[fluid plume]

Idk bois the Perseus bridge be looking kinda…… meh

[lone bloom]

I mean, maybe

[fluid plume]

Like they stripped Apollo bridge and slapped it on top of Perseus

[humble anvil]

Well we do what we can when we can get confirmation

Right now we don't know if that's actually the Perseus

We can assume it is

[lone bloom]

Make the connie turrets remote makes more sense than whqtever it has rn

So coping its the connie bridge xd

[humble anvil]

It like

Honestly

Connie rework

[lone bloom]

Either connie rework, or perseus and pray its not the perseus

[humble anvil]

They could legit rework some of the Connie

Atleast give it a new bridge

[lone bloom]

But it would fit to the sneakpeak time scheme

[humble anvil]

Calm before the command

[lone bloom]

Apollo had the bridge one too before release

[humble anvil]

Calm before the command to fly to nyx and fuck up some vanduul

WHY SO SERIOUS CHRIS

[lone bloom]

Calm before the command to fly with perseus to Manchester and ask what the fuck they were Smoking by redoing the entire bridge

[humble anvil]

Copy paste bridges dude

Ez 4head

I'm left with more questions than answers

Could have shown the engine of the Perseus and I'd atleast know without a shadow of a doubt it's the Perseus

Inb4 it's the fucking Hermes

[lone bloom]

I hope so

I dont want this to be the perseus

Gonna skip every room and Sprint straight to bridge to confirm its hopefully not

[humble anvil]

But then again

Gg

@lone bloom

GOOD

GOOD RIDDANCE

[lone bloom]

So, someone finally Pulled the trigger on him?

At least some good news today

[humble anvil]

Best news all year

[lone bloom]

Wikelo release: oh cool first awien
Some weeks later: i stand with xenothreat

[fallow wharf]

it is

[humble anvil]

How do we know

[fallow wharf]

because this is perseus

[humble anvil]

Love it

Great stuff

[fallow wharf]

[humble anvil]

We'll get to play on the slide

I never seen a RSI seat ride on rails

Sorry I'm worried

[fallow wharf]

Help me like the interior

I liked this much more

[crystal sleet]

i suppose the floating mfd panel as meant to open up the bridge more, not make it too claustrophobic

[fallow wharf]

Yeah I thought about that too, but the joysticks from Origin on the seats make it kinda awkward

I hate them

[humble anvil]

Know what's nice

Go from bridge to outside the ship in 2 seconds

[fallow wharf]

Escape pods?

[raven jetty]

It'll be real nice for salvaging and getting into trouble.

[humble anvil]

And the wings are there so you could probably run straight off that bitch

Parkour off and be fine

If only they had a mandalorian jetpack

[fallow wharf]

I am lowkey sad it didn’t got a med bed of any kind, I would have been happy with t3 at least

[humble anvil]

If it grew in size it might

But it probably won't

If it does oh god players going to be pissed

[fallow wharf]

My source denied it

Also low cargo space

[humble anvil]

Oh so I saw the s3 beds are so nice

AAA

No sebas don't say that

[fallow wharf]

I hope it’s a bluff

[humble anvil]

Did your source say

PDC's etc etc

[fallow wharf]

Didn’t ask about that

[humble anvil]

Awhn

[fallow wharf]

I think I will wait for the official preview

I will just down my excitement for the Perseus if I continue

I don’t even understand why people in the normal chat mock me for wanting a t3 bed for at least two respawns. Yes it might should not get one for its role as the opposite role of hammerhead, but the reality looks different and most will use it as their daily runner which includes landing and going into potential lethal places. I don’t want to lose my ship and stuff just because I wanted to check something outside, I want to respawn in the ship. Having 20-30min delay between getting back to playing the game is not healthy for any game that wants to keep a steady playerbase

This game is not meant for 24/7 roleplay where you can only play ships in their dedicated role

[humble anvil]

Hm

[fallow wharf]

Looks like I will permanently house my ursa in the hangar to fix this issue

[humble anvil]

See

Hmm

[fallow wharf]

It’s not like two or four respawns will break the game balance at any point

[humble anvil]

I don't disagree with you because I want the game to be game and be fun

It's s military ship

It's meant for killing and patrol

Escort blah blah

But it's military. How do you not have basic medical onboard

[fallow wharf]

All I do works perfectly fine with the Polaris too, except it is a bit too big and unpolished and consumes time and frames to operate for small activities

So why shouldn’t the Perseus be able to do that better for a crew of 3-6

[fallow wharf]

Exactly

[humble anvil]

I don't think t3 is out if the question

And tbh hammerhead rework hope it gets it

[fallow wharf]

My hopes too

Two t3 beds would be fire

[humble anvil]

I just think of the size, and shits going to happen. But when you're at work and something happens who do you call

Ambulance

Rush to hospital

Unless you're a conglomerate that has onsite medical

[fallow wharf]

I mean either way we can resolve that problem with the ursa

But then we remove the cargo capacity for spoils of war

50 SCU is outdated af anyway

[humble anvil]

Mmmm

[fallow wharf]

I am thinking of running the Perseus as my smaller daily and upgrade my Polaris to a kraken for Orga gameplay

[humble anvil]

Did your source say anything about how it flies

[fallow wharf]

Zero

But I doubt it’s slow

I think it will be faster than anticipated

[humble anvil]

Just in time to get nerfed after iae

[fallow wharf]

I am happy if it’s slightly better than Polaris steering

And with the seat in the middle front we get better visibility

[humble anvil]

Ye I was going to crash out

I'll deal with the side seat angles but I think it's stupid to not have a seat in the middle

Mess up symmetry

[fallow wharf]

Idk how I feel about the roller coaster chair and the joysticks

[humble anvil]

Learn to like it

Did source say anything about

[fallow wharf]

I fly my 890 a lot for cruising and exploring, that’s where I kinda like it

[humble anvil]

Turret?

[fallow wharf]

But for military id rather have Polaris themed seats

[humble anvil]

I sleep

Ty for details

[fallow wharf]

What am I looking at

[humble anvil]

Racking the gun

[fallow wharf]

Interesting

Good night

[tawny fern]

man

this channel sure went ballistic over that pic

[lunar inlet]

I wonder why…

[raven jetty]

Honestly, it ain't that bad.

[uneven thistle]

Good morning, are we still melting down?

[desert gorge]

Think nkt 🤔

I mean it looks better than apollo tho i wish the captain xhair does it all tbh

[tawny fern]

i dont really care about it lol

when we get it we get it 🤷‍♂️

middle pilot seat, left/right pilot seat, either works for me

i think its interesting how you can fly the zeus from either the pilot or co-pilot seat, is that possible in the polaris?

[shadow oasis]

No only from left seat. The Perseus has an amazing cockpit in concept. They went cheap and copied polaris with a little tweak here and there. If that's the case they should decrease the value of the Perseus cause it's just a simple asset copy with a big gun. Don't care if it makes ship building easier, it's plain lazy and cheap, nothing more.

[foggy silo]

Is this real ?

[shadow oasis]

Yes it's the sneakpeak of the week

[foggy silo]

Why did someone think it was good to put the pilot seat here was a good idea

The centered pilot seat was perfect :(

[azure fulcrum]

I'm getting really depressed now this really is the final straw for me

[azure fulcrum]

Damn this picture to hell I wish there was a sliver of hope that it is not perseus but no it is... we all know it is...

Clown Incompetent Games absolutely destroyed perseus concept and fucked us over because they did a rush job got away with minimum effort to just sell and get on with the next concept.

alright I'm gonna accept it and move on, I accept I'm an idiot for believing in perseus all those years I accept CIG prioritizes money above all

[fluid plume]

Bruh after what they did to Polaris, it was 100% gonna be game over for Perseus

[azure fulcrum]

that's it nothing more to say or think about I want to just move on next.

[azure fulcrum]

It was fun while I still could dream and hope for perseus in those 5 years but sadly everything good with CIG has to end

uggh we're CCU trapped its so over

its gonna be 850 at least

[fluid plume]

When money dries up cig will open up ccu’ing to above $1000 ships

[crystal sleet]

middle seat will 100% be pilot seat. Think about it; from medium to large size, all rsi ships to date have all been center pilot seat. It was only when they did capital class ships (polaris) that the offset RSI seat was used

dont lose hope, use logic and history

[lone bloom]

Isnt pollo offcenter too?

[crystal sleet]

well... thats... nuh uh

[crystal sleet]

ignoring the concept, i imagine they did that because theres not much reason to give the apollo three seats

[azure fulcrum]

hermes could be data runner third seat is for scanning dish lol

[crystal sleet]

only a single remote turret

[azure fulcrum]

cargo variant has tractor beam turret

[crystal sleet]

well i suppose the copilot can choose either the dish or turret

again, the single copilot can do that

[azure fulcrum]

logic and CIG? my man CIG doesn't have a history of being logical

you guys think we're getting another sneekpek next week of percial?

[crystal sleet]

of course, we might even get a staged sneekpeek of the Perseus ramming flyign through a hammerhead wreck

maybe even the Perseus in nyx

[azure fulcrum]

its so unfair I don't know what I did to deserve this

must've been hitler in my past life or something

https://www.tickcounter.com/countdown/8394633/iae-2955

[fallow wharf]

It’s still centered but on rails

[humble anvil]

ye

[lone bloom]

how bout the sneak peak is just the connie rework and we call it a day

[humble anvil]

dont worry dude, we'll still have center chair

[fallow wharf]

I strongly believe desks were hindering our view too much

Even though I loved the concept design

[lone bloom]

But why you need view as a remote gunner?

You will be either way in the turret

[fallow wharf]

What I don’t like at all are those ugly joysticks

https://tenor.com/view/the-batman-riddler-no-no-no-no-noooo-riddler-no-no-no-no-gif-25498499

It aint the Perseus its the connie rework

https://tenor.com/view/very-unacceptable-trex-gif-22252091

[lone bloom]

@humble anvil just a sidenote.... the new sneakpeak has no strut in the upper glass area

The Perseus has a strut there tho

https://tenor.com/view/hmmm-things-that-make-you-go-hmmm-yeah-ok-gif-16013961894675410206

[lone bloom]

The upper strut is missing in the sneakpeak

Also the glass is reversed

its from bottom to top slide

not top to bottom slide

[crystal sleet]

i think its same to assume the strut will be under our vision.

i assume the pilot seat, if on rails, will also raise the seat upwards

[humble anvil]

if they screw the Perseus. And I mean it metaphorically, rhetorically, poetically, theoretically or any other fancy way

I will riot

[humble anvil]

1 less strut for man, the whole glass panel seeable for mankind

[crystal sleet]

someones pointed out the perseus canopy is more tilted down than the tilted up canopy of the concept

[crystal sleet]

this seems like a misread on the sneakpeek. They mightve added an extra edge on the canopy

[lone bloom]

I hope not

[quiet slate]

I don't have much to say on the Perseus thing complaining about the cockpit change... I will how ever say I'm actually happy it the Polaris treatment because there is one thing that bugged me all these years... why does the Perseus captains office/quarters... but not a captains chair in the cockpit.. now it does

[lone bloom]

Captain can be the pilot? - HH has also a "captain quarter" but no captain seat

Han Solo : Captain of the millenium falcon (and pilot)

[crystal sleet]

its 100% not a captains chair, theres clearly a console with foot pedals at the front where the floor sorta juts out in the middle

[fallow wharf]

There is no captains chair, its the pilots chair

[lone bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/han-solo-captain-of-the-millennium-falcon-millennium-falcon-star-wars-captain-gif-17228214963022529423

[quiet slate]

it's the angle of the photo but I do believe they took the cockpit from the Polaris for the cockpit of the Perseus

[lone bloom]

Which is a shame

aslong it actually is the perseus

[fallow wharf]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/92000849236066304/1422674609723146240/star-citizen-hot_dog.gif

[crystal sleet]

honestly im ok with it, opens up the space a little more

didnt know i would want it before i saw it, but it looks ok

[fallow wharf]

I got one more last wish CiG could offer me

[lone bloom]

its "okay" - but the concept looked better

[quiet slate]

We know the cockpit got wider from a previous photo, there is more space now to not be so cramped like the Zeus cockpit

[crystal sleet]

cant argue with that, yeah

[fallow wharf]

I want to see all old development stages of the ship and commentary on why they did the changes with reasoning

That would be awesome

[lone bloom]

I mean - technically you can make a spectrum thread about questions like that, and they might answer on it

But unlikely

[fallow wharf]

Nah I want it at IAE

[lone bloom]

Like "why did you change the bridge - what was the reason to make such drastical changes between Concept and game version? Why has it now an airlock at the bridge section? Wouldn't that make boarding drastically easier for attackers?"

[crystal sleet]

perhaps theyll move away from the solid MFD panel cluster and go with a more sleeker floating cluster. Dont worry, the Galaxy will definitely lose the mfd tables for their non pilot stations at this point

[quiet slate]

also... we know not all of the changes made it into the concept release brochure for instance the ramp was old news before it went on sale but is still used in the brochure

[fallow wharf]

Wait airlock at bridge?

[lone bloom]

Well- I would make such a post if they don't make such a video

[fallow wharf]

did I miss something

[lone bloom]

Yes it has a airlock just one room behind the bridge

Seen in the very first sneakpeak

[quiet slate]

the image where we noticed the cockpit got wider and bulkier there was an airlock naming on the side

[crystal sleet]

the airlock on the bridge deck was probably because of how many people praised the Zeus for having access closer to the cockpit

[fallow wharf]

Oh now I see it

[lone bloom]

has airlock written on it

[fallow wharf]

That’s very very concerning

[lone bloom]

yeah ACCESS

[quiet slate]

yes

[lone bloom]

Airlock without ground access isn't really a access for the crew aint it?

[quiet slate]

how so

[crystal sleet]

in zero g would be helpful

[lone bloom]

pretty sure zeus got praised for the ladder it has there, not the airlock

[azure fulcrum]

Praise be Perseus, the snekpek is just a CONNIE REWORK

[crystal sleet]

dont need to worry about waiting for an elevator even in space

[fallow wharf]

My ships get stolen on a daily basis due to airlocks

[quiet slate]

it's possible that the airlock also allows for smaller ship boarding

[crystal sleet]

if someone boards the Perseus, just lock the bridge door

[quiet slate]

remember this isn't going to be an airlock that is opened with 3 punches

[lone bloom]

which they can shoot open within one mag

[fallow wharf]

But that shouldn’t be on bridge

[crystal sleet]

engineering 🙂

[fallow wharf]

Direct access to control

[lone bloom]

This airlock right there will be the entrance point for attackers at boarding scenarios...

[fallow wharf]

so they punch it open

[lone bloom]

They have direct access to engineering and the bridge

within 2 doors away

[fallow wharf]

Is it not?

I am scared it is

[lone bloom]

not even the Hammerhead is that poorly protected against boarding, there its "just" the bridge but not engineering too xD

[quiet slate]

yes the airlock pretected by the fuckton heavy armour of the Perseus we gonna leave this spot here, this entry point right here with flimsy tinfoil for armour

[crystal sleet]

imagine, after all this discussion, the Airlock turns out to be non functional or decorative

[lone bloom]

Doesn't really look armored to me, looks similar to the Zeus Airlock, and not like a Polaris Airlock where it has a fucking huge ass door infront of the actual airlock

[fallow wharf]

I can see ballistics hitting the door at random and then you have a literal open cockpit/bridge

[quiet slate]

huh you ever boarded a crewed hammerhead... did you notice all the turrets leave the body and there is a door right there for boarding

[lone bloom]

Both scenarios would be a poor design decisions actually

[crystal sleet]

not uncharacteristic for CIG

[fallow wharf]

If we are correct it’s a decorative that can be shot open but not used

[lone bloom]

There is just a wall behind it lmao

[quiet slate]

it's part of the exterior which by the way is the armour.. everything else here is heavy armour but we will make sure this door that is part of the exterior armour.. isn't armour... some great thinging from you lot there

[fallow wharf]

Baiting people to go there

[lone bloom]

Yet you can shoot open an airlock on the idris with a few mags.... and its also part of the exterior,....

Also lets not ignore - even if its armored - if you get boarded they not gonna shot it open with FPS weapons either way

They gonna shoot it open with ship weapons

Most people that wanna FPS enter it use a dragonfly (can even open a Polaris Hangarbay with it) or have the option to just use any other ship to shoot it open, so no armor will protect against it, and will just leave the crew extremely vurnable to boarding because it is next to engineering and the bridge

While before that airlock - the only three entrance points would all have lead into the cargo bay, which is way easier defendable, and has multiple floors, a elevator, and multiple doors between entrance point and bridge/engineering

[fallow wharf]

I hope the engines can sustain a lot of damage

Looks like a weakness to me

Polaris Engines get wiped instantly from new turrets at certain stations that protect against intruders

[azure fulcrum]

[fallow wharf]

You can be as armored as you want but if your engines are shut down you pretty much can’t do anything anymore

Would be cool if they add explosives like c4

So you can literally bunker yourself against intruders

[crystal sleet]

https://tenor.com/view/battlefield-tank-fly-shot-gif-890493581016929163

[fallow wharf]

Shouldn’t we be able to also think it increased in length by that amount

So it doesnt look clunky

[lone bloom]

you mean that the bridge got larger in length?

[fallow wharf]

The whole ship a little, so the bridge remains with the design esthetic without looking too clunky/fat

[lone bloom]

Maybe, but won't change the fact its like - twice as easier to breach/board

[fallow wharf]

Yeah

I hope it’s a new mechanic where you can permanently lock the door

So even if shot down it’s locked in place and can only be opened from inside

[lone bloom]

Also I am pretty sure having the highground due to the catwalk in cargo bay makes it way better to defend the ship - than having to defend a hallway just infront of the bridge

[fallow wharf]

Doors like that exist irl, so they can add it in the game

[lone bloom]

jokes on you, forgot hacking where they won't even need to shoot them open?

but just "hack" them open?

[fallow wharf]

Unless mechanical door without panels

[lone bloom]

which we don't have

[fallow wharf]

I am grabbing deep in the coping bag

[lone bloom]

technically doors shouldn't work when reactor is offline tho

[fallow wharf]

But we have manual loading of ammo

So they might have went that way

[lone bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/not-yet-mace-windu-star-wars-gif-9797353

[crystal sleet]

doors could be explained with having small back up batteries built into them

[fallow wharf]

I would love that the use of cutters would come back in cutting doors open only

[lone bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/light-saber-door-star-wars-gif-11063885

[fallow wharf]

Yes

Where did that cool feature go

[lone bloom]

its still there

just not used for ship doors

[fallow wharf]

But useless

[lone bloom]

just for random ass doors or vents on random outposts

[fallow wharf]

Nobody uses it on doors anymore because you can punch them open most of the times

I should apply at star citizen

[lone bloom]

I guess many have better ideas how it could or should work - but I am pretty sure none of us would ever get to a position where they could actually decide that

would have to become director level

[fallow wharf]

Possible

I just looked up

My city is one of their main locations

Lead level designer

I am senior

[lone bloom]

Level Designer isn't ship designer tho

[fallow wharf]

I know

But it opens up the doors

[lone bloom]

Wonder what role actually does that there

Product designer likely

aka the stuff I am trained for

or just "game designer"

[fallow wharf]

I can work with any 3d software and custom engine 3d software pretty fast

I did in the past for world of tanks

And shatterline before its downfall

[lone bloom]

Shatterline was great tho but kinda boring at some point xD

[fallow wharf]

I came contracted from wargaming and decided to stay once they broke apart due to war in Russia and Ukraine

Then they decided that the staff who actually programmed the game doesn’t offer a good opinion and even less the playerbase

Then sold it off to some crypto nft scam

[lone bloom]

good i left it before that

[fallow wharf]

I was their steam hub admin and at some point did some customer support work regarding cheating

[lone bloom]

Trying rn to switch to Multi Media Design / or start into Marketing Design simply because you don't get any jobs in my area as product designer

[fallow wharf]

Then I asked for more pay and they said I should leave if I am not down to work for less until it kicks off

Now I am a pen tester for banking software

[lone bloom]

a pen... tester

lmao

[fallow wharf]

Trying to find security gaps

[lone bloom]

Ah...

Thought of... well

https://tenor.com/view/no-sad-angry-mood-news-gif-25174492

[fallow wharf]

if that would get me money I’d be down

They look for many ai programmers

[lone bloom]

Maybe s they don't T pose anymore on chairs

[fallow wharf]

I hope they keep the broken T pose emote

People who purchased Perseus will also get this armor let’s start to gaslight ourselves into that

https://tenor.com/view/perseus-star-citizen-gif-19365453

[azure fulcrum]

you mean like how they gatekeeped idris and promised us it wouldn't get to PU before SQ42 because of spoilers?

[fallow wharf]

yes

[midnight crypt]

Wasn’t the F8C supposed to be the reward for completing SQ42 but we gotten it a year ago

[azure fulcrum]

yes xD

[midnight crypt]

But the F8A has been sitting in the game files since ILW but no word on when we are getting it

[humble anvil]

Bring on the money Chris

[lone bloom]

how u get 49.8K

[lone bloom]

thats like 5-6x as much as paladin dps xd

with attritions

funfact- a Paladin can melt a Polaris quite quickly

[humble anvil]

i forget exactly what i did

but i think i took the Idris Turret

and .50% it

and idk if i encorporated the s3 remote gatlings either

you know.. the perseus is going to have inflat dps numbers lol and its going to get people riled up

because of the alternative fire gatlings, plus the pdcs, plus the remote turrets, plus the main guns

[shadow oasis]

I hope the chair on rails is a thing, but why do both side seats have joysticks then? Remote turret control?

[humble anvil]

I was told

[fallow wharf]

thats wrong

[lone bloom]

its wrong that its able to - yes

[fallow wharf]

my friend used his paladin and couldnt even get the shields down at all from my polaris

[lone bloom]

Why are there videos of it then?

[fallow wharf]

idk

i tested it yesterday

both stock ofc

[lone bloom]

I mean in the video they melted a shield side within 10-20 sec

yeah with full attrition^^

[fallow wharf]

can you link me the video

[lone bloom]

with full attrition its basically a Idris Laser just with consistent damage

if i can still find it

[fallow wharf]

his main gun did like 8-10% of my shield on one side until he had to reload

[lone bloom]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6HWr77KG-Nk

23:41

from full shields

to 0

roughly 30 sec

with reloading included

[fallow wharf]

weird

it didnt was like that for me at all

maybe because this is PvE polaris?

i noticed the pve polaris can also still fly almost like normal with no engines

[quaint scaffold]

The cope is strong with this one

[grave canyon]

i mean you can smell the cope when you put your cursor over this channel

[humble anvil]

welll

250k quadrant, 8300 dps.

30 seconds for the quadrant if all shots on target. no reloading into account

well geuss the dps from erkul does take that into account

45-60k per Engine

what, 5k per turret

[lone bloom]

Its connie rework take it or leave it, not gonna accept polaris copy paste for perseus

[humble anvil]

paladin is pretty good

[lone bloom]

Hope for Perseus

one Perseus turret still outdps a fully crewed paladin

[humble anvil]

Perseus is twice the cost

does the same exact thing

[lone bloom]

twice as good

[humble anvil]

the quad S5 turret is very very efficient

[lone bloom]

Whats one Perseus turret approxamitly? 12K dps?

[humble anvil]

for 1 person to control

yes

[lone bloom]

yeah thats 4K more than a full crewed paladin

[humble anvil]

welll one perseus turret if i recall

[lone bloom]

yeah one

[humble anvil]

its 12k alpha

per gun

[lone bloom]

meaning 3 person perseus is 24K

[humble anvil]

10k alpha per gun to be safe

[lone bloom]

still more than a upgraded paladin

[humble anvil]

20k alpha per turret

1.3 shots per second

[lone bloom]

wait

Per gun?

lmao

[humble anvil]

yeah?

Alpha

[lone bloom]

so one turret does double the damage of a paladin

even WITH the reduction

[humble anvil]

this is based off the Idris Turret

its higher based off the idris turret

i think uhhhh wtf did i do

scaled the meteor up

1600 S5 , 2400 S6 , 3600 S7 , 5400 S8. Dual Barrel; Effectively 10.8k Alpha per gun

OR

3400 S6 , 5100 S7, 7650? S8 Off Polaris scaling

OR

[lone bloom]

either way- in both cases its more than a full crew paladin

[humble anvil]

6750 S7, 10.1k S8 Idris Scaling

[lone bloom]

so yes they do at the very end both apparantly the same thing - just that the Perseus can do it faster, has more /easier cargo, and a shit ton more of protection

at minimum double the shields (likely gets buffed to 3 shields or 4) hull hp either way will be extremely better

and pilot to gunner coordination will be significantly better since you can actually see the turret

[lone bloom]

lmao

[coarse cloud]

i might have proof that the ship in the sneak peak wasnt the perseus

based of the exterior image we got

[humble anvil]

I was told that it is the Perseus and to not worry about the middle chair as it does indeed ride on rails

[coarse cloud]

from a cig employee

?

[humble anvil]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[coarse cloud]

lol

[humble anvil]

Ight anyways, entertain us Solar

[lone bloom]

I mean, the glass still doesn't match

[coarse cloud]

eh ill take a better look at it when i can be bothered and see if this glass lines up

[lone bloom]

It does not

[coarse cloud]

my thought exactly

[coarse cloud]

but i want to see if its the actual shape that has changed

[lone bloom]

also the upper strut is missing

[coarse cloud]

another reason

[lone bloom]

which was clearly visible in the first sneak peak

so it is there

[coarse cloud]

i strongly belive that this sneak peak

is the salavager

that just has the same build

as the apollo

but fatter at the front

and shorter

[humble anvil]

APOLLO CARGO, DATA RUNNER, AND SALVAGE VARIENT

[coarse cloud]

or

[humble anvil]

BROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[lone bloom]

might also explain why 3 seats

2 salvage heads, 1 pilot

[coarse cloud]

yeah

[humble anvil]

CIG COPY PASTING LIKE CRAZY

MINING VARIENT WHEN?
