Re: What are you doing (ingame) now?

Got the hang of flinging my 'Vette around in the asteroid fields now - much more manoeuvrable than my old 'Conda - learning how to use fixed weapons now, ready for when the Class 4 Fixed Pulses arrive.

Then will actually move out my current system and do some trading etc.

Re: Corvette loadout thread

I get a feeling the 'Engineers' part of the update will allow you tweak some of the core components for much more varied builds and better power output etc, going to be interesting to see what is planned. Of course if it's like anything else of benefit - it will take loads of grinding to find all th...

Re: New res farming ship

Personally I would stick with the Python, it's a great ship and even after spending 500M+ on my old combat 'Conda it wasn't much better than my old Python in a RES. If the python earns you enough from RES hunting ie. around 3-5Mil per hour depending on spawn - then changing it just for RES hunting w...

Re: What are you doing (ingame) now?

Learning how to fly my new corvette, very pleased with how it handles - much better than the 'conda imo - may not kill npc's quite as quick as my old 'conda but once Class 4 lasers arrive that will change methinks :)

Now to rebuild my credit balance which seems to have vanished :)

Re: Some advice on Turrets please

Some advice on Turrets please

So got myself a corvette and trying out some turreted weapons - slight problem - they just wont fire by themselves. If I set to Fire At will - nothing - unless I manually fire them - which kind of defeats the point. If set to Target Only they will fire on the target - but only if I manually trigger ...

Re: What's in a name?

My character name goes way way back to the days of tabletop RPG's when I used to play Runequest - Colin The Grey was my barbarian fighter - thick as 3 short planks but thews of steel lol. Since then every character in every offline and online game from Asheron's Call, to Elite has been either Colin ...

Re: What are you doing (ingame) now?

Seems Bob had a Corvette lying around - just 1 previous owner - so Arnie has been traded in for Colette my new corvette. Colette.jpg Now to see how she performs in combat. Build is this at moment - but will prob change as I try different loadouts out. http://coriolis.io/outfit/federal_corvette/28A7A...
