I had my first SLF launched at me. Yeah - that's how little combat I've been doing the last year. I thought I'd just sit in that Conda's blind spot. Thankfully a cop showed up and got the Conda off my back while I took out the fighter (after I stopped panicking). I think I had 37% hull left. Anyway, yet another thing to think about.
It's time to give this another go.

I only had limited time tonight so didn't have time to drag my ass over to the CG so found myself BH-ing in Exioce for the Order.
The only ship I had was an a rated Viper Mk3 which I used to love but after not flying it for a while, I realise it's pretty garbage. Even if it does sound great

No.. Viper4 and Cobra4 are good ships! You can lose a fight to anything and blame it on the ship, and everyone agrees with that. :D
Then again, you probably will lose a fight against that Hauler with a mining laser in a Viper/Cobra4 because it is a shit ship, so you are right.. :lol:

Call me stupid, but I actually like the toughness of a Viper Mk IV.

Starting with the game in spring of 2015, I skipped the Viper altogether. I went with a Hauler - Cobra - T6 - Asp.

It was awhile later, when I needed to do some runs with 32t+, that I didn't want to de-kit my Asp, that I got a Viper Mk IV. Loved it!

If I could go back in time, I would have gotten a Viper Mk IV and done more missions, than gone to a T6 for the added cargo space.

But I'm also someone who mined -- yes mined -- in a Vulture. Only 1 Large Beam, since the Mining Laser took the other hardpoint, and I only had 6 bins, but that was enough.

I loved it when other ships f'd with me in RESes. "BeeeEEEEEEEEAAAAAMMMM ... pow!"

Drives off-line ... in deep space

Postby thebs » Thu Jun 15, 2017 5:18 am

The Adjudication Server connection issues have been on and off all the past week. I used to think it was my Internet, Router, some various DNS caching at my Router or Windows DNS settings. But no.

It's gotta something at Frontier. They're farting with server-side crap. Why do I think such?

Because I now have the most dreaded regression of all ... the inability to bring drives on-line. But I'm not at some planetary base or on the ground. That was the prior problem. No. This is different.

After getting kicked out, I came back to the sound of my Drives trying to start like they are coming on-line -- just a brief click -- but are not. And sure enough, in the Modules panel, they are off-line. I cannot bring them on-line.

Had this issue before ... but on a planet. Not in deep space.

UPDATE: Using the up lateral, the drives came on-line. Weird.

The MK3 was my goto ship for some time and it was a beauty to fly into CZ's and bounty hunt in RES.
Flies like a breeze and is the fastest ship around.
