[@katastrusmega]

5:45 😂😂that laugh bro. Im so glad I started playing SERIOUS serious again. You and foxyloxy really make Star Citizen look good.

[@JourneymanJohn]

Ha, never thought I'd be lumped in with Foxy. Hard to watch that guy fly a ship. He does a good job testing patches though. Thanks!

[@katastrusmega]

@@JourneymanJohn Its the love of the game as far as he's concerned. Different angles of gameplay but same energy IMO.

[@JourneymanJohn]

@ For sure, there's a lot of different ways to play.

[@cheamanyo]

i hate you and your kind but i gave you a thumbs up for letting me study your strats

[@b1gmass943]

i see youve turned to the dark side

[@JourneymanJohn]

Join the Org: discord.gg/vngd What do you all think of the Firebird?

[@IL2TXGunslinger]

Picked up one two days ago - wish I"d gotten it earlier. What was your loadout? Attritions?

[@JourneymanJohn]

@ I tried both CF and Ardors in the video. You can differentiate by the fire rate and size.

[@brianchristopher8843]

​@IL2TXGunslinger panthers. 1800 meters a second.

[@IL2TXGunslinger]

@@brianchristopher8843 THANKS!

[@SmithFamilyGaming]

Did you end up changing out the stock missiles at all?

[@ftlnetwork6067]

When shooting the starlancer you fired missiles and made his hull red but shields were still up. How did they get through the shields. Great vid btw. Subscribed!!

[@JourneymanJohn]

@@ftlnetwork6067 missiles have shield penetration and splash damage.

I too, am a disciple of the great Bob Barker 🚀🚀🚀

[@MrFWStoner]

How do you find the players cause I'm not getting any marker whatsoever. With the right components you can have the firebird not to be detected outside 4 km so if you install the Strife Mass Drivers you can literally snipe people with your ship without them noticing you. Those weapons have 5.5KM range

[@JourneymanJohn]

@@MrFWStoner I look for dots of light that are moving. A lot of players are running stealth components so you won't see them on radar like you said.

[@MrFWStoner]

@ yeah but how do you get close to them in the first place? I have no idea how to track them

[@JourneymanJohn]

@ I don't really track people. I just know Chawla's and Shepherd's have a lot of activity so there's usually people there. You can always ping to find potential targets and investigate unknown markers.

[@MrFWStoner]

@@JourneymanJohn makes sense... Those Dominators are good eh :)

[@NFEzantiszar]

I run mine with all stealth components and its crazy think my highest radar detection emission is 3.9k so at that point im already almost on them 😂 Me and a friend run in saber stealth groups I do intial alpha and then they go in with normal saber variant and saber comet

[@JourneymanJohn]

@@NFEzantiszar Sounds like a good time.

[@NFEzantiszar]

@@JourneymanJohn oh it be all in pyro and only to group runners no single vulture or mining ships and such

[@Salt-o5o]

Yep this is pvp meta for now

[@roel2377]

What's your load out

[@KomoriFX]

what components and guns do you have on this ? im new

[@JourneymanJohn]

I run stealth components and CF repeaters/ardors (Mission Reward).

[@jrspringston]

I hop in areana commander and cant spawn when one of these ships is playing 😅

[@mateoemanuel3517]

HOW TH did the starlancer almost die in 4 missiles 1 size 3 missile does 3 k hp and the starlancer has 80 k hp wtf cig

[@JourneymanJohn]

@@mateoemanuel3517 I was pretty surprised by that myself.

[@Hugh-Janis-EMP]

It's not really ez mode - Tracking ships can't ruin your day yet because after 6 years tracking is still not in the game. Missiles 95% of the time can't be chaffed off or smoked. A large % of the time you don't even get a warning you have been locked or are being missile spammed.

[@JourneymanJohn]

@@Hugh-Janis-EMP Yeah, it'll be more balanced again when missile warnings and the HUD works reliably again. For now the Firebird is a bit of a menace if you aren't expecting it.

[@helluci6449]

wdym "star citizen 4.0" the game has been in early access/beta for AGES and they're already at 4.0? are they EVER going to publish it in full?

[@JourneymanJohn]

Hey man, I'm not the one who chose the naming convention. SC 1.0 is supposed to be the official release. Should be releasing anytime between the next 2-20 years.
