Star Conflict OBT v. 0.8.5 Discussion

With 6 engies, I’d imagine there would be a ball of blue walls.  Only counter would be flying in covert ops and dropping nukes to flush them out.  Five engines and one guard would fix that.

because engies totally can’t fly away from the nuke? o.O

Which most probably breaks their formation or might hinder them to execute their goal. Also, usually at least 2 don’t, and also everything stationary they deploy, cant move.

 

Also, I am not impressed by Drones, if I can carry a nuke, because it means I go at least 550, and strafe with their cruising speed, possibly AB speed. Also I got at least 5 concussion missiles or proximity mines for their pleasure.

 

Sometimes, its the small ships covering them making you lose, not the ball, certainly not, without a guard. This will result most definitely in a lock in firefight with the enemy team containing the situation, if they get their bottoms organized.

 

The reality is of course, 6 engis have probably one guard at least. Which is what I implied.

 

Fix these damned heavy lasers! They keep going off the screen like i reported before! It happens only when aiming straight at jericho frigates.

Then that’s ok. You noticed how shiny their ships are, right? It’s like a mirror.

I wonder…

So, where’s this update we were promised?  :dntknw:

apparently it’s thursday…

Seriously? Having been told it’s today, they’ve decided to not bother for a week? I’m pretty sure they could have at least fixed the cosmetic stuff today…

It was said that the update is after the tournament, but everything needs its time and we don’t want to bring the server down for each small fix.

Bet you 20 bucks the extra days won’t do you any good. It’ll still be 1 fix with 3 game-breakers.

nono, it was supposedly a massive update.

Make it 7 try-fixes, 2 actual fixes, 5 possible game breakers.

 

-just joking- though slightly serious as well

I’ll repeat the point I made several days ago; if we were given the patch notes a week in advance, we could begin giving feedback on how things look.

 

I’ll certainly match Oryngton’s bet that things are not going to go down well when this patch launches… there’ll be at least one “obviously wrong” change.

I just want to know, is there anything going to be done about ECMs? A good squad with them is the most annoying thing to deal with and has no natural counter.

There will be some news soon:)

Now I’m very excited.  The Singularity Cannon and the Coil Mortar look especially fun to play with.  My concern is I hope there will be at least 3 options for each damage type for any ship to keep things interesting.  I’m definitely looking forward to this next patch now.

Watching those:

This what I found:

Positron cannon = Hail

Beam Cannon = Assault laser/Heavy laser

Coil Mortar = new weapon

Heavy blaster = new weapon

Shrapnel Cannon = Rapid-fire rails with more bullets

 Pulse laser = pulse laser

RF blaster = rapid-fire plasma

plasma gun = assault plasma

ion emitter = new weapon

singularity cannon = new

assault railgun = assault railgun

gauss cannon = new weapon

gauss cannon = new weapon

Stab Rails at a much faster speed.

 

To be fair, all railguns are coil guns, the only thing that changes is a little bit of theory and how it’s applied.

and fixed accuracy in the video…not sure if hacks are actually so.

so not really stabilized railguns, alike, but not the same

I wonder what will happen to our current weapons.  I don’t particularly care because I’m not stacked with purples, but maybe a certain guntype will be converted into 1 of the new ones?
