so far I was able to get the ship to be invisible, but you can still see the weapons... it´s messed up

ounce for ounce, the kraken type II is a better gun, because of a few things, higher damage-refire output, molecular weapon (most high lvl enemies use positron) so you get more damage than the tachyon weap wyrm II and lastly it looks better with nomad weaps <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

lol no lvl 10, don´t get jumpy. Can´t a guy play around once in while?

look back at previous topics before posting, it´s the bundschu base in frankfort. in the debris field on the right side of the tradelane. must be neutral with bundschu (incorrect spelling).

don´t go to omicron alpha, there´s another one in omicron gamma where the jumpgate (northeast of the omicron theta jumphole) leads to a system without radiation and a place to repair if you need to. (easter egg there too) <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> I prefer a combination of both. 2 of each I´m the kind of guy that will spam around the ship, because of the lag, usually most people wait till they try to turn and take a few good shots. but the player isn´t gonna give you that chance in dogfights, 2 of each is synonomous to having a higher rate of fire, when I hold the fire the area of damage is greater, but that´s my preference.

quote: Hmm where did you find that lvl 10 turret? I havn´t heard of it nor seen it... it´s not a lvl 10 turret, it´s lvl 9 turret and it´s found in sigma 13 gmg station naha. btw, tyrone just proved me right <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

probably the sabre by a hair, I tried to time it, but it´s pretty damn close. lol, didn´t see page 2, this is diected towards zerogravity´s question Edited by - pb8185 on 12-03-2003 03:42:48

another example of an unfinished game, what the hell do these guys do all day? smoke weed? if there isn´t a lvl 10 turret, why have a class 10 turret slot anyways, just have it be lvl 9 so we don´t get all anxious and dissapointed, and the adv. champion shield, how about a lvl 9 graviton shield? or lvl 10 molecular shield? anyone found those? I don´t think they exist either. Also the ammo costs waaaaayyy too much, if you spend that much on the actual launcher, you shouldn´t have us spending 7000 per torpedo or mine, and they´re not that good. It´s also unbalanced.

quote: I got the Titan and i think the nomads are piece of cake can kill hundreds in a row of 4 really. I´m not saying the sabre sucks but the titan can also kill nomads without needing to recharge shileds you know. I´m doing fine with my lvl 10 brigade shield and 4 nomad cannons... I can even blow up 8 sabre/titans of the computer without to much effort so pls stop this stupid talk... good job, now if you tried or considered trying fighting them in the other 2 ships I talked about, maybe I´ll actually pay attention to that comment. I´ve seen people die plenty of times with the titan fighting the nomads, then they switched to sabre and reported the fighting to be much easier. lol killing 8 AIs... applause have you ever tried dogfighting with the titan? with other players? maybe the manuverability isn´t that visible but it does affect the ammount of hits you take. Try timing a 360 spin staying still, then try it going at 80m/s max turn angle of course set something far away as a checkpoint like the sun or a planet. Edited by - pb8185 on 12-03-2003 03:20:03

one more comment about titans being better because it has more armor, eventhough it´s slow someone said they prefer being slow. I know people here has tried fighting nomads with 2 if not all 3 lvl 10 ships. If you have done so you will realize that people with titans will constantly be pressing F while the other two will be able to manuver their way back to a more workable lvl of shield. I was playing with the sabre, and I had NO problems whatsoever, my shields were always up even if they were sometimes at 1/4. I don´t know why but I actually had to use the battery once while playing eagle (this is after numerous times fighting nomads, to give you a figure, I had about 15 nomad weaps by the end of each test). As for the titan I couldn´t stand in the air for more than two runs by the nomads.. I was getting hit left and right eventhough I was manuvering like crazy not even trying to hit while pressing the strife buttons... Horrible, think about when you shoot a hawk or any other low lvl fast manuvering fighters, I bet they took you at least 5-10 sec to kill eventhough 2 shots and they´ll be dead, because they manuver soo much up down left right that if you´re over 300 it´s hard to predict where they will go and if you´re close up you can´t use the crosshair (you should know not to use the crosshair when an enemy is very close to you). Manuverability is much more important, which is why titans suck. Edited by - pb8185 on 12-03-2003 02:31:02

um, dude are you saying everything has the same manuverability? ever tried the freighters... yeah they´re all the same in manuverability right? right? NO. I´ve actually timed 360 spins at the max turn angle, and I found that the eagle has the most manuverability, the sabre is pretty close, and the titan draaaaaaggss. BTW someone said up in the forums that the titan looks cool? well I guess you´re the kind of person that will take a ugo over a ferrari. Titan looks like flattened roadkill to be honest, I don´t know how anyone can stand looking at the for more than a minute. Sabre and Eagle are neck and neck, unless anyone knows where I can salvage a lvl 10 turret, otherwise I´d say both sabre and eagle are good choices, it´s all about preference. (I think eagle does look cooler than sabre)

referring to the question about why we´d want the sabre instead of the titan, here´s the answer, ready ready? TITANS SUCK, in every single aspect. except the 2000 armor it´s crap... might as well label it a freighter ship without the extra cargo space. Sabre has forward turret much more manuverability, not to mention cost less. not to mention it doesn´t look like a bird that got flattened by a car.

kessel run in 4 parsecs, I´m Han´s bigger brother, darth vader, meet my wife chewbaca, and my son Obiwanna Wackoff.... soo tired

why wyrm II? tachyon weaps are not that good against positron which are what high lvl AI all use... why not laser or particle like skyblast or kraken?

I´m pretty sure eagle and sabre has the same power, they cost the same, one has more armor, one is more manuverable, I tried to time it with the same weaps, I think it is the same... not certain. maybe sabre has more.

so what´s all this about black hoes?

why is this game so stereotypical? the whole planet of malta (descendents of hispania) smuggles drugs for a living? real fricken clever.

also good: actual missions where you have to take out nomads, and since they´re the hardest foes in the game, it should pay like 200k per... <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

kraken II is the shiz, that and skyblast B, sweet guns, does kraken II have a turret counterpart? I forgot. skyblast B does...

contradiction, there is a lvl 10 turret, but I´ll leave it for you to find out what it is, I´ll direct you to an outcast &quot;burial ground&quot;. I´ll leave the rest for you. <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>
