Re: Mining Lance?

So in the end it sounds like it completely serves no point. I dont see a situation where you would be able to get one without actually having weapons that are effective. The only argument I was ever able to make in favor of it, when playing devils advocate, was in regards to mining in smaller ships...

Re: Why I currently have no motivation to play

I almost didn't reply because even though we differ in some regards I think you will appreciate the game more after a break. That being said here we go. I'm confused here, you say missions are OK, but then you say you only do smuggling and charity missions (the 2 mission types that are broken the op...

Re: Why I currently have no motivation to play

IMHO... 1) Missions are not all bad. Not sure when you started playing, but being from the original 1.0 crew I don't think I have touched a mission that was not long range smuggling, a CG, or for charity in like 10 months. I usually see missions as what new players are forced to do before they have ...

Engineers and Power Play equipment.

Is anyone else scrambling around to acquire the Power Play faction equipment they are missing in hopes that the engineers add-on will breath new life into some of the otherwise disappointing gear? I am hoping that you can add damage to the Pack-Hound Missile Rack; rate of fire to the Advanced Plasma...

Re: Mining Lance?

The Mining Lance is more useful as a weapon but less as a mining laser. Basically you trade the speed that it drains capacitors for it's ability to do damage. In all most people consider it to be a really bad trade off because there has also been testing that shows it cuts away fewer fragments than ...

Re: AMA about Elite Dangerous

I read a couple of suggestions in the last few days that UA’s might not be of Thargoid origin, but made by an AI (or AI’s) that has/have been banned (which would justify they use of Morse code). Know anything about banned AI’s? The problem in researching the topic is that the two main sources, Drew...

Re: Background Sim test

Sterling work. However, the differential seems to be variable (https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=193064&page=86&p=3521622&viewfull=1#post3521622) - it used to be thought 5% for a Civil war and 10-12% for a War. We lost a system this week where both parties came out on par (...

Re: Weapons for Python

Well because it was brought up by someone else first I will go ahead and say that the Vulture, FDL, and FAS are all better combat ships that can be built for cheaper than the Python. Fitted the Vulture cost 15 mill, FAS is about 60 mill. and you are looking at about 90 mill for a combat FDL. That is...

Re: AMA about Elite Dangerous

Hello, We have yet to explore even a significant portion of our galaxy, let alone Andromeda and the other know galaxies out there. So why all this talk in ED lore about finding an entire unknown Universe via Raxxala? I read somewhere that Thargoids are actually from a another dimension. Why go so f...
