The corpse with the data chip moved to a platform at the top of the passage and I can’t find out to get to him

Does it still work in 4.0?

How do you zoom in to rerad the code at the start? I right click but have no zoom (3.24.3)

The ship never needed to be nerfed.

the body u get the carg off of to deliat your crom stat thing isent there any more

Where did you get that lovely paint job in the screenshot? I mean my goodness, that's pretty.

sound like a frog

The fucking stairs near the end are diabolical... The warning came way too fucking late in the video man...

Im still confused on this.. Does this CCU Game app tell us when to upgrade and when to melt and buy with melt credits? some shit just says "Store" and others says "store(wb)" for warbond but doesnt tell us how to buy these ships or do upgrades.. im lost.

I cannot get this to work on my phone... It said on the site worked on mobile now. Any word on that?

Seems like it's he easier to just serve the time..,

i made it out just for the ursa to not be there :( i overheated and died

sadly in 3.24 they added multiple spawns to the datachip it seems.. one of them in a spot i couldn't figure out how to get to but thanks for the vid none the less

People buy ships and they make them weaker after people buy them with real money? No wonder the govt is being so brave.. It knows the truth about the masses.

Yesss increased range was exactly what i was thinking. 100% agree

Get rid off the charge and i think you fix it combat wise

no weapon names ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Unfortunately doesnt work as of 3.24.1 with the introduction of heat damage to modules, the ursas drivetrain will overheat and get destroyed within a few seconds of leaving the hangar, and 4km on foot is too much because of the heat so you just die.

without a medpen for some reason i lost health in the room with the mines. the lasers turned off so unless it's a bug it's very frustrating regardless the whole design of the prison

Thank you, Best begin ship discussion I've seen, will use your code to get the Cutter 🦾

My first. Arora ln

Since 2014. 1500 bucks

I think you need to discuss both burst and sustained dps, as the F7 has high burst, but runs out of ammo in 4 seconds and then takes a further 8 to charge. This means over the course of a minute it will kick out an average of 1,200 dps (ish) vs around 2,000 (ish) for the Ion. Against larger target the Ion will take it down much faster, and the nerf to its fire rate, maneuverability, charging etc just its hard to use in dogfighting, which is intentional, as it's not a dog fighting ship, it's an anti capital ship.

I have trust issues with CIG over things like this. Are they nerfing it as part of genuine balancing work - or have they taken enough money and now they need to sell the next new hotness? I think the Ion cannon should have 25% distortion added on top of the existing laser damage. Not more lethal in DPS terms but more effective, especially when hammering big targets.

and rovers are gone everytime anway

the body with the key was somwhere completely else for me, 30 meter above where you body was

As an ION Pilot who flies in a squad of 5 even with the "Nerf" it still kicks ass. Solo though Its not as fun. Sitting in the back as a sniper and just continously nailing the one spot on large capital ships makes it so much easier for the crew, that and it can tank when it pulls aggro makes it still super usefull. In pvp its fun to still two shot small ships (feels similar to quick scoping). So if you're an ION pilot in a crew its still fun, If you're solo then yes the ION sucks and dont buy it. After watching this video I went and bought a paint for my ION, thanks :D

Im going to be frank here... Your dogshit at flying and fighting you don't even turn off the BASIC settings of forced head turn and forced zoom... I currently am pretty nasty with the ION i don't think you should be talking about the ION or at least state you are average at best in your piloting skills...

It's all completely busted now, you don't get your gear back when you clear your crimestat. The vehicles don't spawn and the mission doesn't

Can't really agree with you on the mid-tier rankings Don't get me wrong, the Cutter is a nice ship but the interior is all it really has to offer. The Titan has better armament, more cargo, and is just a better flight experience. The lack of weapons on the Cutter hamstring it from doing anything but the lowest tier bounties.

Rockets are terrible. On normal ships with burst dps you can shoot your mag, switch to rockets, go back to your gun, rinse and repeat. That’s called a damage rotation. Since the Ion has no burst damage, only sustained dps, swapping to rockets instantly takes away from the guns damage, making the rockets much much worse than they usually are

This is a ship I want to really like. I like the idea of a long range anti capitol ship sniper, which isn't the size 7 cannon is just not useful. I like the idea of having a charge mode and a constant fire mode, but I don't think ALPHA was the issue. I agree that Projectile speed and range should have been the balancing factors. Make the fire rate slow, but make it hurt! I dont' care if I don't have a constant fire rate (not what the ship iss for, though I coudl make sense if little fighters are coming at out, but will id o enough damage?) That's what the missiles are for anyhow on the Ion, keep small fighters at bbay with long range fire and S3 missles (and btw, as of 1A I do believe Firebird has more missiles and it can defend itself well against small fighters). Again, I love the look, the components, and the diea. Maybe, when ships like Idris and Polaris are more common, and hull armor is a factor, this ship may get its redemption, but then, there's teh inferno... I tend to prefer laser weapons, but at this time, I'll keep my Ion on buy back, hoping for it to get fixed.

I was thinking that maybe they could replace the typical stagger fire mode to a continuous fire mode on the Ares Ion. Default would be the charged shot with it continuously charging and firing as long as you hold down the mouse button. Continuous mode would instead fire the gun without charging whatsoever and would continue firing while holding the mouse down or when the system overheats. I would still buff the continuous mode dps to 1/3 or 1/2 of the charged to make it still competitive with other ships while not making charged completely useless.

this is probably the worst "quest" in the game. there are so many things that can go wrong and the low gravity fucks things up at every turn. i've actualy increased my crime stat twice over just trying to get out 🤣

Sadly i think you can't scape anymore, at least without the mission , you reach the surface, but there aren't any vehicles in the garages, and you die because of extreme heat conditions in a couple of minutes up there

Make its a 1.5 full charge time and increase the ammo speed to 2 to 3 thousand speed.

lol i have the Carrack pack. but i genuinely like all the ships it comes with except the DUR which i'm partway through CCUing to a Corsair instead. it's not an awful pack, it's just not for beginners. so far it's the largest pack i've seen (there are even bigger packages available once you hit Concierge) that is not overly redundant in gameplay loops. the most overlap between ships in the the UEE 2950 Explo Pack is between the DUR and the Carrack, but one is a 2 person ship while the other is a 6 person ship. i guess there's the C8X/C8 overlap but that doesn't really count imo and cynics can use the C8X as an LTI token if. anyway, i got it after almost 3 years of playing and i'm happy with it, but yeah it's not a starter pack at all; very much an veteran's pack for people who know exactly what they're doing.

only 4 minutes in when i write this, but like i really think that having high alpha, low dps ships will be invaluable to combat in the future once armor is implemented, or at least it should be CIG's goal to make such ships important. high grade armor should be immune to damage from an Aurora or even a Gladius, but should be concerned when a ship with size4 or larger guns shows up since the higher alpha should be able to punch through armor plating or give hardened shields a run for their money.

The problem with PvP in this xenothreat was everybody was red so you couldn’t tell who was attacking other players, so you couldn’t figure out who to attack until they were already shooting you. The other issue was that without any crime stats PvP players would just respawn at pyro. And the other issue is after the 3rd day, so few people cared that typically there were more pvpers than people actually trying to do the mission. It was annoying to do all of the overdrive events just to not have a chance to get the armor because when I finally have a few hours to sit down and play, that PvP players are dominating the area. Overdrive was good. Bite sized missions is best. It lets us save our progress, leave and come back. I never had the 4-8 hours to finish the missions

Its got the bones to be a good event, when it works, I think its just the same old problems, very 'sandboxy' no substance. Problem is i dont see that improving for at least a couple of years.

Ion need an Beam Laser the longer. Making more Damage over Time. Small Targets can manouver the Beam. Big Targets get what they get from ION.

XT is now a box ticked, reward obtained and move along. For me the big problems were the reliability of the event working as it should. The wreck site on more than one occasion had no Starfarers, indeed someone in chat suggested [redacted for public consumption] Agent Dooley and tell her she's got the wrong location! Payment was still ticking over, as was CDF rep. Not knowing if you were even scratching the Idris was a massive nuisance, I got to the level.of flying out in my Eclipse, launching all three torpedoes and crashing into the Idris, call Gladiator, launch all missiles and crash into Idris runs and repeat. All the while CDF rep is ticking. Veteran First Responder, but CDF rep gets you nowt. There's no real link to Overdrive and if you RP, as I often do, no significant reason to attend. With the flaky (amateur level bad) UI and,PvP types adding to server load it just wasn't as good as last year and that's a very low bar to clear. Good video abdcsome very fair comments.

Best youtuber! ❤

I think the problem with .23 and why it hit people so hard was the distribution centres. Weirdly, adding new content made the game feel emptier. From what I've heard from other people, people exhausted the new gameplay within the first week and then ended up back where they were in .22; and I sort of feel like the CIG promising all this new content and then not really delivering on it is what bothered people. Also, MM has so many teething problems that I know a few racers and semi-PvP players have taken a back seat this patch and likely will until they do a second pass and work out the kinks.

Finished it more than 10x ... can be quite quick if someone boards the Idris :-) . Its a good moneymaker and a lot of fun. The FPS is sooo low, indeed 😞

For the algorithim. Also including all known positive emojjis: ❤😂😊🎉👌🔥😇😍🥰🤑💯

4.0 Will fix all the issues (Mask on, Deep breath)

P2W is not about the game: Its about the hardware. With my 1500Eur Laptop, I'll never win against a cheap AvengerTitan on a 4000Eur desktop PC. P2W is about the hardware... For PvP, there is always P2W. Play chess to avoid that.

well... there is 1 gun and 2 weapon groups/mouse buttons... maybe they could just use that for modes... but if their intention was to make this iteration of ion and they were ok with it, i fear what other nonsense they will come up xD

I personally don't think PvP is pay to win. A good pilot in a starter ship (aurora or mustang) can easily outfly and beat a lower skill level player in a dogfight even if the lower skill player is in a top of the line "meta" fighter, as PvP requires balancing ship power distribution, decoupled mode and a host of other things in the fight that just having a good ship won't allow someone to do. Now yes if you put two equally skilled pilots in the same scenario, starter ship vs meta fighter, the meta fighter would win. But to me in order for something to be pay to win the thing you spend money on needs to severely blur or fully erase skill gap, and I feel at most fighters like the F7A mkII only slightly blur that line and in the end skill, practice and understanding game mechanics still trump how much someone spends on a ship. (also a side note, the two "meta" PvP fighters I see most PvP pilots use, the arrow and the gladius, are two of the cheapest ships on the store)
