Torpedo Heavy Cruiser Proves it is the Meta Gameplay Choice - Nebulous Fleet Command

[@misham1213]

This fleet really straddles the line between madness and genius

[@hallofo8107]

Pretty much the pinnacle of the "Old Way" of doing missiles. Not so great if you're caught out, but lethal in a knife fight!

[@BSenta]

Torpedoes are a long range weapon in the expanse, then guided missiles. Railguns are a close range weapon.

[@lucalynch986]

​@@BSenta i love the expanse =, it's my favorite book series I've ever read and the show was great but how tf is that relevant to this comment. also im pretty sure missiles arn't in the expanse at all...

[@DWPL89]

You couldn't cap as you had no weapons on that ship.

[@genericname42]

We need the torpedo heavy cruiser to return. We need the ocelo torpedo craft!

Space potatoes.

NEBulous

[@damienjeremytrotman84]

Why does this game sound and feel like Homeworld lol?

[@mikehawkisb1g]

Because it basically is, just with ship customization.

[@CheapSushi]

@@mikehawkisb1g it's almost nothing like Homeworld in gameplay.

[@watch.v-dQw4w9WgXcQ]

​@@CheapSushi nah its kinda like Homeworld, atleast before Gearbox added that shitty RNG dice roll mechanic and broke the Remaster

[@Cooldude-ko7ps]

@@watch.v-dQw4w9WgXcQ huh?

[@watch.v-dQw4w9WgXcQ]

@@Cooldude-ko7ps the Homeworld remaster uses the HW2 engine which for HW2 works, but completely breaks HW1 since the game isn't suppose to function off a RNG generator to calculate hits. If the engine says 0% to hit, no matter what you do it will never hit the target or anything beyond (luckily I think that's impossible to achieve a solid 0.) Ship projectiles don't vanish into thin air in the original. (Like this game your projectiles are real and not a magical hitscan device that's using a dice roll to say if it exists or not) Also Gearbox broke the AI in HW1 so everything's braindead (legit braindead, half of them are unresponsIve to be attacked and your support craft won't auto repair requiring you to micromanage it) and they slapped "dynamic difficulty" which can result in you fighting the entire Tiadan fleet due to increase of resources on missions (they didn't playtest it AT ALL)

[@cpvsgvmnt2116]

That open missile salvo was impressive. You don't have guns as back up? I'm a noob player .. just did my first multi and we won. I think that ship also didn't have point defense.. unless I'm mistaken. If I'm right.. that was a huge mistake for that dude.

[@trontheallmighty9055]

It has some auroras firing at the very start but I don't love that PD setup no. Also sadly this video is super out of date as the missile rework just came out

[@trontheallmighty9055]

So, yeah lol. You definetly need more PD now especially

[@Cris-xy2gi]

The Solomon is a pretty niche ship isn't it?

[@ajasome9933]

Bro imma be honest the Solomon goes crazy

[@rzu1474]

Well that strat is ded

[@genericname42]

But maybe it will be reborn
