@BlackPuddin Yes, I will be doing some reorganizing of the forum page this week. If you all don't hear from me for a few days, It's just because I'm at work. I work long hours so I don't have much time to do much during my work days. Anyway, a roster will definitely be posted. It would be nice for everyone to be able to see TS names easily. I've already seen that sometimes people are online and I don't know who they are on TS. Adding the "365 Steel Eagles" tag to the TS name is a great way for us to keep track of each other. Also, if people would like to use their call sign as their nickname (could be this way already), I think that would be great too!
@Incubuss Yes, formation flying can be very fun. It's a great tactic if used right; even in space. This, by no means, will be a requirement though. I respect that a lot of people simply aren't into this kind of thing. However, if everyone is willing to be cheesy with us, I'll do it all day long
Can't say for sure how NPC's will react, but we'll find out. This may be it's own training session for those interested. This would be even more beneficial for people who are using joysticks/hotas'. I'll get with you on it, and we'll make it work
Also, I am desperately awaiting custom squadron decals for ships. I can't see why they wouldn't allow this, but I'm not getting my hopes up just yet. I get the feeling that they are already working on another major update that may/may not include this. In any case, it would be awesome if it does happen.
@Crisp I will definitely come up with a way for pilots to refer to some sort of a "jargon" sheet. I don't want it to get too complicated, but this would make for a pretty awesome replay/video if we can get it to be realistic. Who knows, we may even end up featured in a newsletter on Frontier's website? Lol. Anyway, the jargon won't be strict by any means, but it will take a little time to get setup if we're going to use it consistently. Just want everyone to try and be patient. I use a radio every day at my job, and it can be difficult to learn the proper way at first. It gets easier and easier as time goes on
@Whiteneck Yes, trading is a pain. For the foreseeable future, this seems to be the only way we're going to make enough money to get the things we all want. Trading together can actually be fun though. Like I said before, there's going to be a perk to trading in groups. A fleet of type "whatever's" could be fun too! Lol. The good news is that you don't have to spend a year trading in this game to get the great ships, upgrades, weapons, etc... It really just takes a couple months of grinding to get substantially rich. In short, keep your type 6 and have plans to get you a type 7. It will benefit you greatly in the long run. Yes, we will accommodate smaller ships as well. We'll strategize to make it work
Most of all, Welcome!
@Kehlin No worries my friend! We don't discriminate here
As long as you don't mind 10-9'ing (repeating) your transmission now and again, we won't have any issues
@Mox Vandal Fellow Rhino Jockey here! Love the X55. Probably the best piece of computer hardware I think I've ever had my hands on. Soooooooo jealous of the pedals though. I may get some eventually. We'll see
Eagles, Just wanted to let everyone know I'll try to be on as best I can this week. I have Wed, Thurs, and Fri off, but I go back to work Saturday morning. In any case, I'll try to get most of the housekeeping stuff done if I can. Just keep in mind that I like to play too
Lol. Looking forward to this more and more as we go along. Thanks again for being a part of it
Turbo out.
I plan on making guides for bounty hunting, combat tactics/wing flight (yes, I have to admit I'm interested in using a bit of formation flying if it's not too difficult;), trading, ship outfitting, and misc. tips. Hopefully this will help out everyone in the mobius group as well!
