Perseus Pals

[lone bloom]

at the very minimum

(not including the concept paint)

[steel thistle]

it’s okay they’ll release the bengal too and probably the game

we’ll be saved

[fallow wharf]

i believe grey for paint and blue red for lights

cop

[azure fulcrum]

so bis skin turned out to be completely orange with some grey and black accents

[lone bloom]

many many hours late

Poop paint

fitting for the pooplaris

[azure fulcrum]

shuss I didn't finish my story

Orange primary color, accent black, orange trim

could the same apply for perseus?

i.e.

Primary hull color: Grey, Blue accents, Red trim

hmmm it would still look like shit

I could live with this

[lone bloom]

very likely its something like that lol

guess we get our concept paint after all?

just with red lines (which would be a turn off for me)

[azure fulcrum]

I fricking hope so

lets hope my theory is incorrect it being in the order: Primary color, Accent, Trim

and the data files color order is just random

yeah the red trim is a bit unecessary

[timid wind]

ew

[azure fulcrum]

tho if the primary color is blue and metallic like the meteor It could still be nice maybe

the orange bis skin doesn't look that metallic its very matte

ugly

L22 Wolf | Silver Yellow White Stripes

uh oh same patern Silver primary color, Yellow Accents and white stripes (trim)

l22 skins color combinations are quite something

the gladius getting another black grey grey skin xDD

[humble anvil]

Ughh

[azure fulcrum]

its quite disgusting

and quite worrying that only 1 perseus paint got leaked

[lone bloom]

so far*

I mean the other new ships will also come with paints no doubt

and none of those got leaked besides the alpha wolf ones

[azure fulcrum]

like it says silver 3 times for the stinger its no coincidence there is a patern here

lets hope the blue and red on perseus are vibrant colors metallic, not the poolaris pastel color crap

[severe lynx]

would be funny if the thundercloud paint turns out to be the best

[lone bloom]

would be funny if it turns out to be the shittiest or just average

[severe lynx]

everyone is expecting that anyway

but ah what if it wasnt

[nocturne raft]

https://tenor.com/view/uma-musume-uma-musume-pretty-derby-ウマ娘-プリティーダービー-agnes-tachyon-beginning-of-a-new-era-gif-18013730469708744976

[lone bloom]

We are expecting it because it is a shit paint

Idris has a similar one and it looks dogshit

unless all other paints are MORE dogshit, it won't be the best one

[humble anvil]

Why I sold mine

Thundercloud pretty unique

You know it's limited so it's exclusive to concept paint Perseus's

And we don't know if they're going to have a metropolis paint for the Perseus you know the concept paint

Like and how that's going to play a role in the ship

Personally I think the kind of dark green base gray paint that we have looks good

But you know I thought I can get some profit out of the paint, You know almost $100 for the paint... And you look at the Star lancer attack and how they did that paint and you look at the Idris thundercloud

That just isn't really all that It isn't really good. So then I ask how will it look against the gray and base greenish color of the Perseus we have now so it's not so silver and I fear it's just going to look really bad

[nocturne raft]

U sold ur Perseus? Shame

[humble anvil]

No I sold the perseus thundercloud paint

I was trying to get close to $100 for it but someone was begging in my DMs for it

[humble anvil]

After seeing all the buffs the Perseus has hell no I ain't melting that thing

Perseus is the ship of the now and future

Now we just pray it doesn't increase in size that much

[fiery blaze]

Solo Persy for box missions? Oh hell yeah

[humble anvil]

They were going to be able to do a lot more than solo box missions

But absolutely

You know the new players when they do their first delivery mission in the Aurora and they see a big ass worship landed at the ground at these facilities

I don't know if I would want to land there

[severe lynx]

thats how i got my first idris

[azure fulcrum]

camo paints on ships are about as cringe as wearing camo clothing in real life

altho the tiger shark stripe paint for idris is the exception to the rule lol

[lone bloom]

Sounds like 890 doing roc mining

[nocturne raft]

whats wrong with camo clothing

[lone bloom]

It looking ugly and awkward in public especially if its a jacket

Its like the people that wear leopard pants

[azure fulcrum]

yeah I can't imagine wearing camo pants even

[nocturne raft]

im glad u guys arent making paints for the perseus cos u got no taste smh my head

[lone bloom]

Glad its literally my job

Just not for cig

[nocturne raft]

my condolences for whoever u do it for

[lone bloom]

Well, not for companies that would think leopard pattern or colors are a great idea

[nocturne raft]

it been found where theyre from yet?

[sand hound]

the king ship looked to have laser cannon PDC's so im assuming the mauler may also have them which would be a "new pdc"

[lone bloom]

isn't that the thing out of the pyro trailer years back lol

Well guys, thats nyx

https://tenor.com/view/looking-around-what-confused-gif-21065154

[humble anvil]

bought 16 of em from someone

No one sells them

lol

[lone bloom]

you not scared of losing them? xd

[celest kite]

I will be using my Perseus for box missions, missing person missions and ground mining. Also combat but I’ll just ask global chat if they want to crew my Percy

[timid wind]

how long r they gonna take with the planets

[lone bloom]

nobody knows

doubt its gonna be this year

I mean one planet is just a gas giant like orison, so that one does not really count right?

[fallow wharf]

cyberpunk cybernetics when

[nocturne raft]

figured. gonna need some to get the wikelo MX

[lone bloom]

You mean the Wike X

[humble anvil]

yes

each ship is a couple fragments, and then the armor is a fragment

[nocturne raft]

i know, i saw the requirements.
been trying to find out where theyre from

i assumed maybe off vanduul pilots like ace interceptor helmets

but they could be in the new QV station

[humble anvil]

i think will be in the new QV

originally got them from hathor PAF sites

this guy i got them from had them for a few patches

[nocturne raft]

this a 2nd leaks channel

[humble anvil]

https://tenor.com/view/sad-sad-man-smoking-rain-raining-gif-25228231

i see

[azure fulcrum]

my wallet is not feeling so good rn those 3 armor with the rune (g) color scheme

... fuckk

[humble anvil]

Dust Devil Set

Navy and Black Coloring

[azure fulcrum]

only the dust devil set gets a weapon? P8-SC ?

[humble anvil]

[azure fulcrum]

yeah RIP wallot

[humble anvil]

Geist is cool too

but it prob doesnt have the scarf

so we'll see...

[azure fulcrum]

ugh I had to admit it but I see no chance of perseus getting a skin with armor set bundle

😩

[lone bloom]

Well I will only get two things at IAE at best, 1 Perseus paint (only if a good looking is there) and deciding if i keep my galaxy chain or melt it lol

[azure fulcrum]

I actually prefer it without scarf

[azure fulcrum]

well you could keep the chain and but CCU to a more useful ship instead lol

[lone bloom]

Did not plan on buying anything^^

[lone bloom]

Its either galaxy or nothing

[azure fulcrum]

huehue

[lone bloom]

would use the store credits for the paint tho

[azure fulcrum]

ohh fuck

[lone bloom]

its only a apollo medivac upgrade

xD

aka only 22 bucks

[azure fulcrum]

jeez why do you have an apoolo

[lone bloom]

i don't

its a upgrade to it

WB

Starlancer Max -> Apollo Medivac 290 value for 22 bucks

[azure fulcrum]

you got a max?

[lone bloom]

+40 value

yep

[azure fulcrum]

oh right thats equally bad

[lone bloom]

so im missing 65 to galaxy

[azure fulcrum]

I'm gonna lose my shit if we don't get any good perseus paints

[lone bloom]

Could've taken rustles Mako for it but he still tries to give it to Iiana

[azure fulcrum]

we need at least 6 paints for perseus

[lone bloom]

(ngl don't even know how much a mako is worth)

lol would've been easy to get the galaxy with that Should'Ve taken it when he asked me but I was telling myself you cannot accept it after he gave me already a free perseus

[lone bloom]

I bet minimum 4 paints

new ones ofc

[azure fulcrum]

I hope

[lone bloom]

wonder if he reads that lmao xD

[lone bloom]

they better do otherwise we will riot

Wouldve probably bought gear with the "too much store credits" and gifted him those back lol

[azure fulcrum]

I need more store credit for IAE but I'm too late now

[lone bloom]

i mean isn't it better to get stuff wb either way?

simply because its "cheaper" in some way

[azure fulcrum]

no cause store credit on GM is 60%

and you can melt it and buyback with store credit again its way more versatile

you can't buyback WB items for the same price

13 + 25.12 +13 + 15 = 66,12$ of crap I can melt for store credit

I already got 38.88$ store credit

so thats 105$ store cred

then I got 350$ in store cred for the asgard

so thats 455$ store credit I can use to get something else

[lone bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-cat-math-math-cat-numbers-cat-funny-gif-13385485103134761656

[azure fulcrum]

maybe I'll trade in asgard for something else dunno yet

and maybe I'll upgrade my glad to the L22 wolf

patchbundle gonna be warbond only so can't use store cred for that

[lone bloom]

really hope the L22 Alpha Wolf will be a cool ship

ngl

maybe one of few fighters I will really like visually

[azure fulcrum]

without the fin and laser repeaters its gonna be hard to ignore for me

[lone bloom]

kruger apparantly one of the peak ship manufacturer

[foggy silo]

I call L22 wolf to be a heavy fighter

[fallow wharf]

wikelo idris

watch it be idris m

i'll go for it, but lose it to wikelo gamble

[lone bloom]

Well guess that confirms that the Percy will easily be able to park on levskis landingpads

if only nyx wouldn't be empty as frek and not just lagski

[midnight crypt]

I have parked the Polaris before a few time at landing pads on the stations. Even on orbituary

[lone bloom]

well ofc its possible, but the pads are clearly not build for it

[midnight crypt]

I was able to fit all landing gears so it was built for it

[uneven thistle]

yeah, just blow up that ugly Carrack and land there

[lone bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/the-square-hole-square-hole-shapes-piklas-gif-24625312

[midnight crypt]

If it fit, it sits

I’m not gonna be able to see shit while flying the kraken

[lone bloom]

Imagine just chilling with your perseus here

[azure fulcrum]

the geist set in the patch bundle comes with an azatalan helmet not a gheist one 😭

[lone bloom]

(that helmet doesn't even look bad in my view)

But still prefer the helmet with the roman commandeur feathers

[tawny fern]

Im gonna buy like 10 of those dust devil sets

[azure fulcrum]

yeah the dust devil set is gonna be sick in gold trim and navy blue

[round zodiac]

broken holgoram in PTU? eeee

[jolly acorn]

Tho kinda nice they did, we wouldn’t have noticed just how many pdc’s that things got, like dayumn was not expecting 6

[lone bloom]

3 dual turrets instead of the two dual pdcs would've been better tho

[jolly acorn]

Tbh id of prefer it to of kept to 2 turrets that act as PDC / remote override

Getting close to being well defended against everything territory

[lone bloom]

i mean it would have been 3 remote turrets that act as PDC

but are size 3 instead of size 1

and would have not hit by the 50% damage nerf

[jolly acorn]

They probably did that because of the Perseus, to force the PDC to be a lot more focused against missiles

I hope it gets ship naming tho!

[coarse cloud]

Credit - tristPWN

drake clipper confirmed

[humble anvil]

Manticore helmet, Warden backpack, and P8-SC ballistic SMG from Behring

[lone bloom]

the only "confusing part" is that it leaves caps even more vurneable to fighters since they don't have said automated turrets like perseus does against fighters , unless they get them aswell added

[humble anvil]

so its the dust devil set

honestly this dust devil patch bundle mmm maybe pretty good lol

have to see how she goes

[azure fulcrum]

it is great especially in that color scheme

[tawny fern]

heavy armor is mega VALUE

[azure fulcrum]

the sand color is boring to me

[jolly acorn]

Tbh they have the HP to ignore fighters for the most part, only scary one would be an eclipse

[azure fulcrum]

I just don't care about the p8 that is kinda disappointing it should've come with the new LMG or AK

[tawny fern]

if the color scheme really is what we think it is im probably just gonna get all 3 sets lol

[azure fulcrum]

huh idk it looks awefully similar to a corsair silhouette

[lone bloom]

They absolutely do not have the HP to not care about fighters

[jolly acorn]

And sets up the use for HH as fighter screening

[lone bloom]

Yes they are bullet sponges, but a few fighters can be very dangerous for a cap if its not crewed especially

[azure fulcrum]

it just makes no sense for the p8 smg to be matched with heavy armor lol especially considering the p8 will have matching colors

[tawny fern]

yea idk whose idea that was

[azure fulcrum]

every heavy armor set sold on pledge store has had a LMG with it

IDK might be a mistake

[azure fulcrum]

I think its just the angle that makes the smaller wing look longer

[coarse cloud]

thats the point 😢

the clipper is baby corsair

but with diffrent facing wings

[azure fulcrum]

ohhh wait do we know the clipper size?

[round zodiac]

does that sillouette thing show any scale?

[coarse cloud]

its quite big

its a big boi heavy fighter as far as we know

[azure fulcrum]

new vehicle class: "Light Freight / Medium Fighter"

[coarse cloud]

ah

[azure fulcrum]

considering the SHIV is a Heavy fighter....

[coarse cloud]

mabye not heavy fighter anymore

yeah

[azure fulcrum]

it might be very smoll

[coarse cloud]

its supposed to be around vanguard size

[azure fulcrum]

IDK

really now? thats interesting

[coarse cloud]

(from what ive heard)

[azure fulcrum]

honestly considering trading in my asgard for a clipper if its good

(it wont be because drake)

but I'm open to it lol

[round zodiac]

Paladin and Asgard has us heavy medium enjoyers eating well

year of hte gunship

they achieved the 'year of playability' by giving us ships worth playing

[azure fulcrum]

hah yeah

I just hope clipper is more of a 1-2 crew ship I hope your theory is right and its a baby cutlass

with a metric ton of pilot controlled weapon and a decent cargohold

or if its medium tuned just decent pilot weapons and great maneuverability and speed

[round zodiac]

that gives drake like 5 different 1-2 player medium to heavy fighters...

i guess shiv is TECHNICLALY not drake

[azure fulcrum]

its gonna be an interesting IAE this year

good ship choices

[tawny fern]

yep seems like cig cooked for this one

[azure fulcrum]

we don't have a holoviewer anymore on the RSI page?

[humble anvil]

I check few hrs ago it was still there

Weird if it was gone

[timid wind]

isnt the carrack like 10 meters longer than the percy

[lone bloom]

26 meters*

maybe only 10 with final release

[azure fulcrum]

right it works for the older ships but not for the corsair for me at least https://robertsspaceindustries.com/en/pledge/ships/drake-corsair/Corsair

should be here

[humble anvil]

its there for me

no worries!!! I think we're okay

[azure fulcrum]

I tried both edge and firefox

very weird that its not there for me lol

[worn prawn]

Is there going to be a new one or something? If you want the old ones I've got a few already, and can get you 10 if you gimme a little time.

[tawny fern]

they're releasing armor sets with the new patch that are dust devils, but with a new color scheme

[worn prawn]

Ah, cool.

[tawny fern]

The Epoque edition features a navy and black coloring, finished with baroque gold detailing.

i much prefer that over the sandstone look

[humble anvil]

xd

[tawny fern]

also im pretty sure the manticore helmet in game still doesnt provide a hipfire crosshair, hopefully that gets fixed with the new armor bundle

[timid wind]

percy still atleast 100 meters

big boi

[lone bloom]

I mean, obvious wont get smaller only bigger

[timid wind]

it looked big in the video

the turret was also massive

i like big ships

[round zodiac]

well the original design showed S7 guns. now theyre S8 and need a housing to support it

[timid wind]

yeh

it also looked like it had the "01" numbering on the side of the turret like the concept

im sorta happy they kept it

i was certain they wouldnt

little thing but i think its a cool touch

[lone bloom]

Considering how much they changed

I wonder did they change the docking collar door?

Didnt check

[round zodiac]

looks like thers 2 exterior doors. one in the hab and one in engineering. then the docking collar airlock for the cargo bay too

maybe symetrical too

we really only saw the right wall in the clips

left to right momentum of the video as usual

[humble anvil]

someone could prob use the hologram to measure the perseus

pdc locations

but is alot of work for peanuts

[lone bloom]

Especially since it will be soon on ptu either way

[zenith finch]

I mean we know its size pretty well already tho?

[humble anvil]

yeah we do. atleast 100meters

[zenith finch]

110x50x30

It is about a bit smaller than this, as it's rounded up to the nearest double digits in the lightgroups

so like 106m for example

[azure fulcrum]

yeah don't think it grew more than just a couple of meters

not even 10

[fallow wharf]

my guess is 115m length

[zenith finch]

Its below 110

Probably fairly close to 100 still

103-104

[azure fulcrum]

my bet is closer to 100 yeah

[zenith finch]

Maybe just plain 100

[lone bloom]

Now you done with clipper now you both here to Do it with perseus ?

[fallow wharf]

if it was 103 it wouldnt make sense to say it grew quite a bit in size

[azure fulcrum]

I did with the sneakpeek it was a nightmare XDD

[lone bloom]

I mean we have way more than a sneak peak by now

[azure fulcrum]

but with the video I might get a better result but its not going to be accurate I'm afraid because of the depth perception

[zenith finch]

It is below 110 tho, which is fixed. Cause of the lightrig

[azure fulcrum]

unless we have an object thats directly next to perseus?

[zenith finch]

Atp just wait the week

[lone bloom]

Think a guardian was next to it

And a raven

[fallow wharf]

let me cope my 115

make it 114

[azure fulcrum]

like what could I even use here as a reference point?

[zenith finch]

impossible cope, but fine

[fallow wharf]

i was coping for more pdcs too and here we go

when it had zero

[lone bloom]

Not like the 5 more meters would matter on a ship thats already 100+ m large

[fallow wharf]

coping for t3 med bed still

[zenith finch]

Yeah but we knew pdcs since march

[azure fulcrum]

I'll try with guardian

[lone bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/the-summoning-bad-cat-hitting-broom-gif-10352523

[fallow wharf]

https://tenor.com/view/no-pixels-cant-see-ben-chang-community-ken-jeong-gif-17361588

[lone bloom]

I still hope the cargo bay is still as big as we originally thought

Let me squeeze in there dozens of 32 containers

Dew it

[fallow wharf]

fitting two ursa then i dont need med bed t3

[azure fulcrum]

theres no fricking way the guardian is not close enough it has to fly directly above it

depth is the problem

[lone bloom]

I mean could slim down a human so it fits to the guardian size approximitly

And then size up the guardian again to the same amount

Dunno

Im bad at math

Whats with the chairs

On the bridge

[fallow wharf]

guardian flew about two and a half guardians more to the left of percy

[azure fulcrum]

maybe theres some asset on the perseus exterior that exists on another ship I can use as a reference point?

[lone bloom]

Still

The chairs

And the pdcs

[azure fulcrum]

wait hold up last time I used the mantis GT as a reference point

[lone bloom]

And the mantis gatlings too

[azure fulcrum]

I need to look up the measurements

That screen there is still slightly angeled tho

[azure fulcrum]

stupid stinger ruins the shot

[lone bloom]

Ik

Tried that screen too

They knew we would otherwise see even more through the Windows and prob did it because of that

[azure fulcrum]

becomes all blurry too can barely see the mantis lol

[azure fulcrum]

Hah I fucking did it

Calling it now did NOT increase in size

[lone bloom]

Didnt john crewe said it did?

But couldve also meant the bridge only

[azure fulcrum]

he never did

[lone bloom]

I mean doesnt change it

The bridge still got fatter xd

So percy still smaller than a hammerhead thats funny

[azure fulcrum]

yeah this is great news

fuck yeah

[fallow wharf]

i want it to be big

[azure fulcrum]

you want a bigger and slower target?

[fallow wharf]

bigger percy

[azure fulcrum]

yeah well, you're not getting it

[fallow wharf]

no proof for rn

[azure fulcrum]

I just showed you proof lol scroll up

its gonna have cap shields either way no reason to upsize

aaahw yeaaah perciouuus

[fallow wharf]

i will laugh if it actually will be 110-115

[lone bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/motomoto-gif-24380022

[azure fulcrum]

powercreep

watch drake clipper be cutlass sized and have corsair firepower lol

[lone bloom]

Percy got powercreept to the moon either way

Even if it didnt grew

[azure fulcrum]

yep xDD

now put some cap shields in there CIG

[lone bloom]

Smaller even more glass cannon ship

Finally a connie competitor?

[azure fulcrum]

even if it had big guns it wouldn't matter because you would lose them if a wing is shot off which is made of paper mache

its not like perseus with god tier armor and defensive turrets covering every angle

[lone bloom]

Tbf perseus still dethroned the connie in my view pretty much

[azure fulcrum]

yeeeeep XD hahahaha

[lone bloom]

Ofc you aint gonna use it solo but if you duo it its way bette than a connie

[humble anvil]

Cig actually releasing a 3 course meal beautifully presented and cooked really well

Actual?!?!

[azure fulcrum]

connie andromeda gunship need 3 people too it has 2 turrets (unbladed)

[humble anvil]

Needs those turrets to go remote and I bet they will in the future

4xS4 and the turrets bladed forward

[azure fulcrum]

what about you do you prefer if perseus stayed 100m or it became 115 or something?

[lone bloom]

Its 4xs5 still no?

[humble anvil]

Anything that gets the ship bespoke capital shield Gen (150k)

[fallow wharf]

so i am not alone with team 115m?

[humble anvil]

Tbh

Hear me out

Riddle me stupid

[lone bloom]

Idc how big it is aslong its more agile than the polaris

[humble anvil]

It's a ship that sits between Hammerhead and Polaris. What if they just 130 it

[fallow wharf]

Man i love you no homo

[azure fulcrum]

wait reclaimer is a cap but it doesn't have cap shield?

[fallow wharf]

[lone bloom]

Its beneath 110 tho guaranteed

[humble anvil]

As long as it gets cap shield

[humble anvil]

They changed it?

[lone bloom]

Aslong a ship has 1 cap component its a capital ship

[humble anvil]

It should have cheap ass cap shield

[azure fulcrum]

if SPviewer is correct let me double check

[azure fulcrum]

size has little to do with it I suspect

[lone bloom]

Not according to cig

Their statement only was if it has one or more capital sized components its considered a capital ship

[humble anvil]

[azure fulcrum]

wait wtf

HUH

[humble anvil]

Fuck it. Maybe Perseus capital

Give it capital armor too

Send it

[fallow wharf]

make percy fully capital

[humble anvil]

But keep the interior small

Just add more armor

[lone bloom]

See

[humble anvil]

30 meters of Armor

[lone bloom]

Even has more than one cap comp

[azure fulcrum]

sooooo reclaimer has a cap shield but somehow its 10x worse than polaris shield?

how does that work lol

[fallow wharf]

and railgun

[azure fulcrum]

both are industrial A cap shields

[lone bloom]

Aint a combat capital

[azure fulcrum]

riiiiiiiight

[lone bloom]

Bespoke components = they can do whatever they want with it

[humble anvil]

Inb4 new category. Baby capital

[fallow wharf]

ship class bespoke

[azure fulcrum]

890j aint a cumbat capitool either

[humble anvil]

Sebas gets it

Size? : Bespoke:

Well Perseus is technically a large. Cig: Nuh uh, it's:bespoke:

[azure fulcrum]

wrong both 890 and polaris have glacis but somehow 890 glacis has half the shield HP

[lone bloom]

But luxury ig

[fallow wharf]

but they get all quality components since its luxury tank

[humble anvil]

Bespoke

[azure fulcrum]

carebear shield buff

[lone bloom]

Pretty much

[humble anvil]

Perseus n hammerhead getting bespoke capital shield

Come on boys

Manifest with me

Combat ships that size need it

[azure fulcrum]

well perseus is getting cap shield hammerhead will not cause its aegis

[lone bloom]

It would be enough for them just getting the warship treatment

Aka getting way more s3 shields

[azure fulcrum]

I 100% believe there is a chance perseus will get a cap comp

however small of a chance

it is there

[humble anvil]

Maybe their way of definition has changed

[lone bloom]

Would go against cigs own capital classification

[humble anvil]

It's only capital if it uses all capital

[lone bloom]

Or percy just becomes capital

[fallow wharf]

Perseus becomes invincible object, cmon guys

[humble anvil]

[azure fulcrum]

idris has 2340000 shield HP

perseus will get "only" 1 holdstrong mil A cap shield

seems fair

[humble anvil]

Tbh though for a $900 ship almost, it kinda needs the stats to succeed

And it's only for combat

[azure fulcrum]

damn straight its almost the same size as polaris and no cap shield?

[lone bloom]

Hh is also only combat

[fallow wharf]

true

[lone bloom]

[azure fulcrum]

that's nothing but outragous!

[fallow wharf]

HH getting rework anyway

[humble anvil]

Prayge

[azure fulcrum]

HH is NPC ship that has a fancy explosion when powerplant go critical

[lone bloom]

Also real money price never so far equalled the ingame value of ships

Look at ground vehicles

[fallow wharf]

The more perseus you own, the higher the stats become just plenge a couple

Gonna go start a riot in general sc

[azure fulcrum]

yeah if it gets a cap shield just not 2 mil hp but 250k hp then its fair no?

because capshield bespoke they can balance it however they want

It can have 100k, but be 'capital' to negate alot of small arms bs

[fallow wharf]

THE PRAYER OF THE PERSEUS

O great ship of promise, forged in unseen bays,
Hear our chants through the vaporous haze.
One fifteen meters of holy might,
Guide us through this endless night.

Grant us capital hearts that hum and roar,
No prefab soul, but bespoke to the core.
Bless our decks with turrets eight,
Size eights born to seal our fate.

Let armor gleam, unscarred, divine,
Each panel fit, each weld a sign.
Make hangars tremble, code redeem,
This pixel dream, our sacred scheme.

Forgive our cope, our faith, our spin,
For every patch we hope again.
And when you spawn — O light, descend!
Perseus eternal, our grief shall end.

[azure fulcrum]

very logical CIG probably think the same

[humble anvil]

Likely

[fallow wharf]

O Perseus, ghost in server mist,
By pledge and cope we still persist.
Forgive our faith, our foolish spend,
Make real this prayer that knows no end.

they didnt straight up remove the fin right? you can just retract it now?

[fallow wharf]

this one was great

[midnight crypt]

But drake is gonna be making your Perseus’ components

Just need a mobile refinery like they are doing for the crafting station and drake can be making your components

[azure fulcrum]

arrastra can do everything dont need no ironclot

[midnight crypt]

Arrastra doesn’t have a fabricator to make components

[azure fulcrum]

lol I knew you were gonna say that but they said we're getting fabs that you can put in any ship so I assume eventually you'll get any size fab you can fit in your ship

t0 crafting just gonna be small arms and stuff butt who's to say that same printer can't print s1 components down the line

I think ironclad fab also is said to only craft ground vehicle components anyways

[tawny fern]

galaxy is basically perseus's non-combat brother

and also 500 dollars cheaper

somehow

400

[midnight crypt]

Most likely will go up in price. Their original plan/concept was probably to sell the modules separately but they might do what they did with the Apollo and have it included and most likely have it cost the same as the Perseus

[tawny fern]

it probably wont go up in price at this years IAE right?

im trying to lock in my galaxy ccu before that happens

[midnight crypt]

It shouldn’t but I feel like next monthly report might have it go into production which they would give a small price increase during ILW

[nocturne raft]

it wont go up till its release

the galaxy will probably land somewhere around 420, then theres the additional module costs

so with 1 module to make it usable, the galaxy will actually be around 500 or so

[tawny fern]

and right now its 380 standalone

which seems, bananas, for its size

[nocturne raft]

380 base + module costs

its very very limited without a module so 380 is deceptive

[tawny fern]

i suppose that makes sense

240 for all the modules currently, plus 380 for the ship is 620

and then the supposed base building module

[nocturne raft]

yeh, puts it a bit more in perspective considering the whole gimmick of the galaxy is the modules allowing it to change role

[tawny fern]

yeah

[nocturne raft]

itll be worse than any other dedicated ship in one of its module roles

so yeh, its pretty expensive if u plan to use it in its intended way

[tawny fern]

it does look genuinely very attractive

at least for me

and the multirole capability, as limited as it would be, is an attractive concept

[nocturne raft]

i agree. i plan to get one with just the cargo module, as im willing to accept it wont be the best cargo ship

i just like rsi ships, and the galaxy itself

[tawny fern]

yeah im glad i can accept the fact that i can pledge a ship not for its stats, but for its concept

[nocturne raft]

then ur more likely to always like a ship than a meta chaser wholl regret buying a ship the second its stats get changed

which, imo, is the better position to be in

[tawny fern]

i think thats what i went through with the corsair

and then it eventually became part of the perseus ccu chain

and i was like, well if i ever want the corsair again, its only like 7m in game

[nocturne raft]

yeh u can always earn it for uec

[raven jetty]

Think the Perseus will end up as a loaner for the Galaxy?

[tawny fern]

isnt the carrack the loaner currently?

im dont think that'll change

[raven jetty]

Yeah, but I'm thinking they might want to keep it in the family, potentially. That said, Carrick does fit atm.

[nocturne raft]

loaners tend to be similar role ships. the perseus shares nothing with the galaxy

[midnight crypt]

Kraken should get the Perseus as a loaner instead of the Polaris. Makes more sense, they both have dual S8 guns

[nocturne raft]

the kraken should get the liberator as a loaner

[midnight crypt]

Getting the kraken before the liberator

[nocturne raft]

unlikely. the liberator is a smaller ship and will be finished sooner

[midnight crypt]

Kraken will be out for next IAE so it can be their fastest capital to go through production. Liberator would come out at the same time or ILW 2027

[nocturne raft]

liberators going to be out before iae next year

the liberator and kraken share tech for being a carrier

[shadow oasis]

"Blast em boys!"

[desert gorge]

kinda feel like Kraken may make it to IAE but not 100% tho its end of Whitebox was it ?

[jolly acorn]

Not a chance not even made it to lod0 yet

[desert gorge]

for 2026

not this year jesus that be fast

[west verge]

This is clear slander, the Perseus is bigger when you hold it

[rose crag]

We all know it’s not the size that counts but how you use it

[fluid matrix]

Perseus is going to be so hot with all the armor... Controlling heat with engineering is going to be a ballancing factor. That ballistic size 8 supergun is going to heat up everything so fast

I dont care about schields gib capital cooling (also the exposed spaces on the armor make kinda sence if you think about cooling)

[humble anvil]

good thing ive bene investing into military grad A coolers

[fluid matrix]

I hope the turrets have seperate rooms like the Idris so you can at least vent the rest of the ship

[crystal sleet]

the turret gunner space should be isolated from teh rest of the ship like teh Polaris

those creds are pushing into concept ccus etc to buy shit n throw it in buyback.. yah know

for sure

they just scalp the limited hull concept crap

[humble anvil]

and that

bot the limited hull

throw it in buyback

[azure fulcrum]

very lame people lol

and here this boy just wanna get arrastra or something

[humble anvil]

This is a hot take but what CIG needs to do, is unvault stuff

[azure fulcrum]

there's a 1k daily limit

[humble anvil]

[azure fulcrum]

oh I thought there was a gifting limit for the RSI site

[humble anvil]

i didnt know that lol

geuss that too

[humble anvil]

oooooooooooo

[severe lynx]

hm maybe i should wait for 4.4 before getting blizzards

or i could get the redeemer for store cred, nab the blizzard, then CCU it to the TAC, and nab the blizzard to get two

[azure fulcrum]

what the hell is a blizzard?

[severe lynx]

S3 military A cooler

[azure fulcrum]

o

[severe lynx]

both the redeemer and TAC come with them by default

[azure fulcrum]

yeah I'm not too worried about it

[severe lynx]

2x JS-500s are going to cost me a shit ton though

[azure fulcrum]

ohh shit I should've snagged those from my redeemer paladin loaner

[humble anvil]

if the comps come from a ship

they're getting deleted

espec since theres no way to clean s3 comps

[midnight crypt]

Just wait for wikelo Perseus for military comps

[humble anvil]

right

[severe lynx]

is it working now in the PTU

[azure fulcrum]

look how smoll my percious is

[midnight crypt]

Need a kraken that’s around the bengals size

[azure fulcrum]

if percius had piloted controlled mounted weapons

it would've looked kinda coole ngl

just 4x s5 like connie

would it be too much powercreep?

[lone bloom]

At that point there isn't enough powercreep anymore

were beyond that point already xd

[midnight crypt]

Every ship that doesn’t have a gun for the pilot should get just 2 S1

And have it mounted on the bridge so they can easily see where it’s shooting

[severe lynx]

it would be interesting to have the S8 turret locked forward and just be able to shoot it as is without someone manning it
but it would probably be op

[azure fulcrum]

imagine they slaved the turrets to pilot but they gave you the ability to aim in third person and rotate the turrets while flying them

LOL

[midnight crypt]

So naval in war thunder and WoWS

[lone bloom]

I still hope they give if it should not release with the stock two blades

the Pilot controll over the remote turrets if not manned

i mean its only 4x S3

its at best a light fighter worth of DPS

[azure fulcrum]

yeah 4xs3 is not worth 2 crew which can crew another perseus with 4xs8+4xs3

[lone bloom]

Thats why im saying its a fair compromise if the pilot gets access to now both of them (since prior only one looked to the front)

until blades

[azure fulcrum]

the main turrets have 2xs3 too XD

[lone bloom]

yeah but aren't remote so don't see them being slaved

without manned turret blades

unless they give the remote turrets temporarily pdc behaviour

that would be bonkers

[azure fulcrum]

thats what I was thinking from the beginning

its what they should do IMO

[lone bloom]

i mean blades are either way only PDC

just for non pdc turrets

[azure fulcrum]

the remote turrets should've been 4xs3 each

it would've made more sense to man them then

[lone bloom]

we all know NOBODY will ever use them

[midnight crypt]

The idris should of had all quad turrets

[lone bloom]

not before blades

not after

[lone bloom]

im kinda unsure about the role of the idris

Kinda looks to me like a medium carrier that can also punch a little bit

[azure fulcrum]

idris is supposed to be a capital ship with non-cap weapons

[midnight crypt]

Railgun is a non cap weapon?

[lone bloom]

Yeah it looks like its supposed to punch only down - not up

besides the main weapon ofc

[midnight crypt]

XD

[lone bloom]

It feels like the Carrack is the Kraken of Aegis

[azure fulcrum]

it lacks the capital weaponry of a cruiser

[lone bloom]

While Polaris is a larger mixture out of Hammerhead and Retalliator

While Javelin is the largest "gunship" if you wanna take it that way

So Kraken = Lighter armored but with more ship space to carry
Idris = Medium carrier with less space for ship carry
Polaris = Bigger Retalliator aka torpedo boat
Javelin = Largest gunship kinda-ish

So javelin is a bigger perseus in some way lol

with nothing in between

[azure fulcrum]

base idris sucks ass it only has 3 pdc and barely any turrets lol

so I get what they mean in the description

[lone bloom]

thought base Idris P has 6 ?

[azure fulcrum]

o right 6

[lone bloom]

same amount as Perseus

while being 10x larger

[midnight crypt]

Didn’t know the idris is 1000m long

[lone bloom]

Its not only about length .-.

I'm talking about volume

its 3 dimensional yk

[midnight crypt]

I only care about length

[lone bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/james-doakes-doakes-curious-suspicious-questioning-gif-14390669560130901665

oh right

i wanted to see if spectrum is on fire after the confirmation of 6 pdcs

and the gigantic amount of weapons the percy got now

yes - yes there are spectrum threads about it

[azure fulcrum]

suuuuure perseus will be torpedofodder to polaris because its 100m long with 6 PDCs

[lone bloom]

Its always fun to go to spectrum

[azure fulcrum]

they got the best takes

[fluid matrix]

polaris torpedo is lunch for pdc

[midnight crypt]

I hope my kraken gets like 22 PDCs upgunned and have 2 remote turrets that are able to shoot at the flight deck so people can’t just easily land and board the ship

[lone bloom]

One person also said "to be fair Perseus has same amount of crew as the Polaris - and is less strong"

[azure fulcrum]

ehhh your krakon will get exactly: Zero PDCs because only military ships get PDCs from now on

[lone bloom]

1-6 crew vs 3-12 (?)

[fluid matrix]

haha have fun repairing something in the polaris tho this ship is running simulator

[lone bloom]

At best the Privateer will get them

[midnight crypt]

Most military looking ship there is

Kraken should get them. Any fighter could just easily land. Blow the door open and steal or blow up the kraken

[lone bloom]

Also some fool doesn't know about law, he thinks that the "stock remote S3 turrets" got replaced by PDCs

You can't change stuff that was specifically sold with the ship

[fluid matrix]

if s3 is not default ai go galaxy riot

[midnight crypt]

cough Apollo drones cough

[azure fulcrum]

lol just found out poolaris has a tractorbeam turret inside of the cargohold but its only for transfering torps because it can't really look outside

[lone bloom]

ANd CIG said they will still get them

and got the modules as compromise for that time

Thats something else than saying its just gone

[azure fulcrum]

it gets some manned turrets

[fallow wharf]

Noise exists

[fluid matrix]

but no shidt 6 pdc and 2 s3 ai remote is crazy

[lone bloom]

not even that, torps not gonna pass the pdcs

its at minimum always 2-3 pdcs shooting at it

[azure fulcrum]

I guess 4 of those turrets could get bladed

[lone bloom]

and later on at the minimum 2 s3 aswell

[midnight crypt]

Smallest is S5 which the turrets will most likely turn slow. Why I would like dual S2 or S3 that is able to shoot anything around the flight deck

[azure fulcrum]

paladin 4xs5 turret does not turn slow if thats any indication

[lone bloom]

Also people keep complaining on the perseus gun thread about that they give too many pdcs to larger ships and make them torp proof - like - they seem to forgot that larger ships are supposed to be multiple step - to take down ? aka in that case... killing the pdcs with ballistic fighters???

[fallow wharf]

Just get behind it and stay there

[lone bloom]

I cannot imagine the outrage once they add shield emitters

that you have to take them down first before being able to actually hurt the ship with lasers

[azure fulcrum]

perseus gonna have cap tier tankiness its gonna be the the same as you would take down a cap ship for sure

[lone bloom]

and they clearly work right now on shield emitters (they use them on the new raid coming next year)

[azure fulcrum]

cap armor, cap PDC, cap turret

[fallow wharf]

[azure fulcrum]

wake up spectrum hellooooooo

[midnight crypt]

Cap speed and maneuverability

[lone bloom]

i doubt its similar to take down a cap, afterall it will still have less HP

also doubt percy gonna have shield emitters

[fluid matrix]

perseus is gonna be real pain dealing with railgun tho... the armor will def help but we will be slow as fuck compared sizewise

[lone bloom]

glad that the railgun is rare as frek

and even if only has one charged shoot before you are already infront of them

[azure fulcrum]

I guess you can dupe the railgun and sell it to other players?

[fluid matrix]

yeah and then 4s8 gonna melt that solo idris away

[lone bloom]

you can rn, but pretty sure they will do something against the dupe stuff at some point

i mean they have to

[midnight crypt]

I got a railgun on my idris p currently. Need to get one every patch

[lone bloom]

otherwise economy will stay fucked if duped stuff goes around

[azure fulcrum]

yeah thats what I thought lol

[lone bloom]

So your P got a big PP?

https://tenor.com/view/boom-stick-army-of-darkness-bruce-campbell-gun-this-gif-17346017

[midnight crypt]

@lone bloom

[azure fulcrum]

I need tasty food what should I get? I'm thinking fat juicy burger

[lone bloom]

also people saying in spectrum Polaris aint 4-5 larger

than the perseus

[azure fulcrum]

the S8 medusa is like 11m long I estimate

[lone bloom]

Guess we playing one dimensional SC

[azure fulcrum]

that s10 railgun is probably 20-30 meters long because it goes into the spine

[midnight crypt]

Perseus gonna have the same bug the idris has, docking collar will be bugged and can just go straight through without blowing it open

[azure fulcrum]

that fucking docking collar was so unnecessary

I wonder what their intetion is maybe the docking collar is used in SQ42 or something

perseus gonna be a SQ42 ship lol

[midnight crypt]

Dock to a cargo ship to get supplies and ammo

[azure fulcrum]

hmm sounds useful

[lone bloom]

also boarding gameplay

[azure fulcrum]

its what bishop asked for probably

[lone bloom]

I mean

[azure fulcrum]

bishop probably knows what he's doing

[lone bloom]

even the freaking zeus and apollo have a docking collar

[azure fulcrum]

yeah weird stuff

[midnight crypt]

I can see the Zeus having it because the MR can transport prisoners so instead of just one variant having it, gave it to all of them

Apollo has one just so you can’t transport cargo

[fallow wharf]

After armor patch it will be sold to Idris p owners

[lone bloom]

until they fix duping

[fallow wharf]

They will just buy the upgrade bundle

Whoever has money to buy an Idris, will also have the money to buy the bundle

[lone bloom]

likely but they only sold the M only once

[fallow wharf]

I’m not talking about M

[lone bloom]

but i guess maybe they will do once money flow struggles

the Railgun is bound to the M variant

[fallow wharf]

P will get the railgun bundle once armor patch will arrive

So the M will have more armor than the P

[lone bloom]

Unless they decide that the P should have a railgun for some reason I don't see them doing a railgun kit

[fallow wharf]

Right now both are the same, that’s why they keep the railgun bound to the M model for now

[lone bloom]

more likely see them selling the Idris M again

[midnight crypt]

Can get it with 1042 referrals, or spend either $15k or $48k

[fallow wharf]

Can’t pull the source but it was said a month ago by a dev that got questioned about idris railgun for P and some other stuff

[fallow wharf]

There is a possibility that the M will get into Wikelo

[azure fulcrum]

cursed

[midnight crypt]

We all know by now that we will be able to get every ship from wikelo

Even the javelin and that battle cruiser

[lone bloom]

I can see them doing a massive grind for it

double than for the polaris

[midnight crypt]

Max rep with banu and UEE while never going to prison on top of the trillions of items you’ll need

[lone bloom]

Funny enough I don't like any cap so far, not even from the concepts, only "okayish" the Merchantman but only because of the huge cargo hold and ability to trade

(and the interior concepts)

[humble anvil]

owo

[midnight crypt]

Not the privateer?

That is even better than BMM

[fluid plume]

“Polaris = bigger retaliator aka torpedo boat”
CIG: “we don’t want Polaris to just be a torpedo boat”
Poolaris: 😑

[midnight crypt]

Polaris is suppose to be the ship that replaces the idris in the lore

[fluid plume]

Lore: Polaris replaces Idris
Game: Idris T replaces Poolaris
CIG: Its even funnier a 2nd time, Perseus T

[lone bloom]

Its drake

so uh no

[midnight crypt]

But if they converted the kraken into something else with other ship parts and slapped a gray’s market on it, you’ll be fine?

[lone bloom]

No

Greys is even more cursed than drake

[midnight crypt]

XD

[lone bloom]

I still want a anvil competitor for the kraken

[fluid plume]

Anvil doesn’t make caps at least not yet

[lone bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/willy-wonka-really-huh-gif-15522979

[fluid plume]

I doubt the battle cruiser will be theirs, would be kinda weird to jump from no capitals to building a battle cruiser out of the gate

[lone bloom]

Yeah I was also asking for a kraken competitor

not for a Javelin or Bengal mixture

https://tenor.com/view/ace-combat-7-aircraft-carrier-scene-1-intro-ace-combat-gif-14055409882676780657

I want this

as spaceship

And Anvil is pretty much that close to that design

(see liberator)

[fluid plume]

Tbh I feel like since bengal comes from wing commander and in same game there is smaller carriers called Yorktown which resembles somewhat of real carriers would probably go to rsi

Unless that escort carrier in sq42 becomes the reference to the Yorktowns

[lone bloom]

Just that Bengal variants are way too large lol

[fluid plume]

I do think anvils first cap would probably be a corvette that can fight or lets get crazy and something up their alley, a capital planetary invasion support ship in the vain of the spirit of fire from halo, slap a war factory on board would be peak with asgards hanging off the side connected to a central vehicle bay + cruise missiles for planetary bombardment

[fallow wharf]

60 crew easy

[lone bloom]

Yeah I just want basically a RL aircraft carrier maybe with 1 Dual S9 on the front and one at the back of the runway, and enough space to store a shit ton SCU + salvage ships

so you just pretty much run combat missions with it, and then salvage the remains

[midnight crypt]

The liberator that went into preproduction

[lone bloom]

Liberator aint a kraken competitor by a longshot

[midnight crypt]

It can do everything the kraken does but smaller

[lone bloom]

just that it wouldn't work for that methode I just said

ik that methode would work with a kraken

But i don't wanna

[midnight crypt]

Carries ships and can RRR? Both are light aircraft carriers

[lone bloom]

just that the Kraken has significantly more space, ability to carry medium salvagers(when ever they come) and has a dual S8 (likely upgunned to S9)

while Liberator has way less space, not the ability to carry medium salvagers let alone light salvagers, and has no larger guns

Best it can do is carry two vultures

[midnight crypt]

3 vultures

[lone bloom]

but is still missing the needed cargo space and mainly which is.... literally a requirement

the guns

unless you go with a three men crew, a perseus (and gunner) and one person in the liberator

but at that point you could also just take a reclaimer as third person

Min Maxing, technically Kraken (or preferred anvil competitor) is better

[midnight crypt]

Has 400 SCU cargo bay which the liberator could get a bit bigger

[lone bloom]

still - guns are missing

[midnight crypt]

Dual S5 turret and 2 dual S2

[lone bloom]

aint gonna do ERT or Foxwell red level against caps

with a ship that as only a dual S5 at best

[midnight crypt]

XD

[lone bloom]

its just extremely unefficient

don't take me wrong i really like the liberator, especially the concept interior with the internal hangar and the side cargo area but its just not fitting for any gameloop

[midnight crypt]

Even if they made a kraken competitor, main issue is your open landing pad ships will be destroyed. Shouldn’t be going to combat. Support ship

[lone bloom]

its the same with the Assgard, its very cool exterior wise (even if interior is lazy copy pasted which angers me still) but it aint fitting for gameloops

that other ships do better

[lone bloom]

kraken has two internal hangars

coping the if ever anvil competitor will have too

[midnight crypt]

XS hangars

But you were talking about medium size salvage ship to use

[lone bloom]

also would be quite dissappointing if the top deck isn't shielded on a ship that has mainly top deck carryability

[midnight crypt]

Kraken Q&A says it won’t be protected since the shields are wrapped around the ship and it isn’t a bubble

[lone bloom]

one more reason to not like the kraken

[midnight crypt]

Gonna be the same for liberator and any other ship that would have a landing pad

[lone bloom]

makes the liberator internal hangar more valuable lol

and obv idris too

good that an aircraft carrier has a internal flight deck
