15k collision damage on a ship that have 7k hull ? 
yes continuosly, if you want i can make a screen
Well that’s one way to make Ellydium ships useless, but the Evolution isn’t over yet, a collision damage revamp would be welcome tho.
Holy pierogi.
2k dmg on police lazor, 2.5k on “my ex” laser with 1.25km draining range… Isnt it too much?
Dreads
I am not a fan of 30 min for a tier change for 2 reasons
-
Now top corps can compete for T3 sectors and Then t5 sectors (30 min / 30 min), Before hour time, all tops would be compressed in one tier, now they gonna split, making life of new comers in T3 much less enjoyable and fun
-
Due to only 30 min cycle, sectors will fall and overtaken way faster, due to lack of time to replenish defence points lost at the beginning of each cycle, this way sectors will change owners way faster, and I personally think this is going to be to fast, so you should consider reducing amount of lost defence points at the beginning of each cycle to ~35%.
3) You only get to play like 2 times in a tier, which terrible, with 1 hour it was actually pretty great, getting 5-6 battles in was fun
I understand that sectors stalling at one corporation is a bad thing, but inability to contain the sector to even 7 tokens is not good either, currently cap is 7 tokens, aka 6 days of continuous control and with 30 min cycles it will be next to impossible to hold.
Dread battle
-
Torpedo - they are still way to important, forcing one of your team mates play a boring LRF for an hour. Make torpedo and bomb structure on a Dreadnought mutually exclusive, with small change like that you create a lot of refreshing diversity to the battles, because Bombs are just as important as toredos now.
-
reduce radar penalty by ~10-15%
Dag’tnith’ changes are nice
SlowBeam - I think it was pretty good before for what it supposed to do, but oh well
Thark’th - as a weapon for close range it needs projectile speed drastically reduced and it needs crit dmg nerf with full charge, similar to how we have it with gauss and positrons

Pilots! You need to destroy or help destroy 10 enemy ships in PvP, with a ship of the maximum available rank from any side of conflict in a combat slot. Your reward is a free container with Phoenix and Reaper ship components. <<
Why the hell max rank? That’s pure BS for a r8 ship component container!
Is this mission repeatable? Or one time only?
==========================
Exactly what I’m thinking about all of the recent missions. This is a super bad tactic for player manipulation and I won’t have it. Aside for daily away missions and any event missions, I’m not playing any more.

Max rank can be rank 5 if you have tharga max rank 5. It keeps “better” players playing in higher tier if they want vouchers and worse in the lower tiers afaik.

Definitely confirmed. I collided and exploded with full health… It may also apply to other ships. Collision system is somewhat broken.

Lol the broken ship got broken the wrong way fast xd
A tharga is NO jericho ship. Is NO empire ship. Is NO fed ship. And gain NO r8 ship components(on r7-).
If they change it to rank 8 ships and above, it would make sense. Those who want to play T5, will play it in this tier, but everyone else will have the ability to play mid-hightier.
Sector conquest changes seem to have been made by someone who never has played a dread battle… 30 mins is a really short time. Nobody wants to make organise a group 3x a day for just 2 games.
Before this patch Thar’ga had greatly reduced collision dmg, just like Destroyers, you could definitely feel it in Sec Con since you could hug and slide asteroids without taking much dmg, while on a classic ship - you touch an asteroids and you go to resp.
Now Thar’gas (and hopefully) all Elly ships use same collision as standard ships, all those 700 m/s thargas better be more careful with driving now

What about my Tackler? It exploded, when I bumped a ship with station protection on… There must be some bugs.

+1 Yes , exactly. It is right time for this already …

You realize how terribly awful that statement is, right?
It either:
-
Makes people want to not upgrade their alien ships because it will actually LIMIT THEM IF THEY INVEST IN IT or
-
Makes it a terrible hassle to actually complete missions because nobody wants to be trapped in their highest tier.
Many people say that the grind is much less terrible now, but all I see is one wall after another being put up. It’s only gotten worse.

Very well! That might be the case. Other explanation is testing purpose for MatchMaker !
BUT: I was mistaken and researched my tharga to r10 and fixed it back to rank 9 but for missions its still counted as rank10 in regard to max rank… I thought the new Ellydium <apply> research-mechanic would be a remedy against this max rank ship madness (or indirect player influencing by devs) and against the tier rush phenomenon because t5 gave the 4th crew and expanded the docks in hangar and t5 was better for open space , but skill did not come with the tier rush. Sadly!
I would love to see the <apply> research-mechanic fixed in this manner to get the max rank in Ellydium what you build your ships at not what you researched!
I could be wrong, but if you die in a destroyer and if somebody revives you in PVE/OS, did you have any issues with the camera? Because my ship was not fixed as it should have been.
It only happens, if your debris gets pushed, then someone else revives you.
>>I would love to see the research-mechanic fixed in this manner to get the max rank in Ellydium what you build your ships at not what you researched!<<
While it sound genius, it’s just useless.
Think about the future with x+ more ships released. You would have to do it with ALL elly ships then. And that’s something very unhandy.
The max rank of any side is just BS. Nobody ask for that!
This whole “max rank” bs is just that: bs. It should be abandoned and removed immediately.
And no more exclusive parts. We don’t need any more currencies.

Imho, they understood this, because they will ‘outsource’ the Phoenix&Reaper special ‘currency’ into steam’s DLC (from March 22th on on - maybe will be the release date for the new Elly ship to come ).
