Ship Types

I’d like to see the ban on owning two of the same type of ship removed. You have the ability to change a hangar slots type (Interceptor, Fighter, Frigate) but you can’t own two of the same ship, so it’s somewhat useless. The only options are to fly with a ship of a lower class, or to purchase a premium ship, neither of which seem like a good option if you ask me. The first hurts your performance and the second requires a real-money purchase. It seems that you want to force people to play all three ship types in a match or suffer some consequence?

In the past it was planned that players needed to use one ship of each type, but than a lot of people were asking to be able to use more ships of the same type so finally the devs made a change. For every Tier you have 3 ships, 2 can be bought with in game money and in the premium shop. Since you saw the post about the gamebalance it will not be so bad if you have a ship of a lower Tier.

But I don’t understand why I am forced to use a lower tier ship if I want to fly two fighters. What is the reason for my being penalized?

Since it wasnt planned in the begging to have 2 ships of the same type it also was not planned to have 2 equal ships. This could mean that there is no game mechanic for that. It could be that this will be added somewhere in the future.

Ok. As long as it’s being considered at least, I’ll be happy :slight_smile:

You can now buy more than 1 ship of the same kind :slight_smile:

And you see people with 3 frigates with lasers.

That sucks, I don’t think they should be removing the option to equip other weapons, instead they should limit the other weapons performance for all ships.

For example, if a ship has a default weapon of Railguns and someone puts on Lasers, the lasers should get a very Slight downgrade in performance, but not removing the ability to use them entirely. That is NOT good game design.

Sometimes I wish I could work with the dev team hand in hand and help them because it seems like they are having trouble sticking to a consistent gameplay, we had Great gameplay in the version before this one but now the gameplay is utterly broken, needs to be repaired before I will even consider playing.

What is the point in booting the game up if the moment I go to a beacon I am just going to be torpedo’ed into nothing? Not interested.
