I really hope SQ42 comes out at the end of this year or the beginning of next year. I'm pretty sure it will bring in a lot of new blood into the game. I can't wait to see where this game is 4-5 years after development is complete with how many new ships and classes of ship they come up with. They will probably have a polished demo out by Christmas, but I don't expect that SQ42 will be released until the summer at the earliest. I expect that they will "officially release" the PU or at least move into the beta phase by Christmas of next year. It looks like 4.0 will be nearly feature complete. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

The first shot of the Polaris, where they showed the white box version and the Gladius in the bay, it looked like a little care would let you put 2 in there.

Yeah, despite the hanger being described as "for a single light fighter", there's a lot of talk of fitting up to a Cutlass-size ship (or more than one Gladius) in there. |

I would have liked to see it without the bay, too, but it seems like they want every ship Connie-sized up be able to carry a launchable craft of some sort. |

If they don't (and they said they won't), there's still a chance you can squeeze a Cutlass in there. The dimensions of the bay seem to be large enough. |

I'm thinking a Hornet Ghost or a Hornet Tracker would be a fantastic pairing with the Polaris. Ghost can fly ahead, scout, and come back, and going by stated targets for final balancing of armor/etc, will be able to hang in a fight and survive longer than a Sabre for an eventual to return to the Polaris for repair. Alternately, a Hornet Tracker could fly ahead acting like an AWACS and picking out any nasty surprises that could be waiting ahead for the Polaris, while again being able to hang in a fight.
Avenger Warlock would probably be amazing as well for combat engagements against known assailants. Use that huge engine and its small size to blast by an opposing cap ship, EMP it, and let the Polaris get some free torpedo hits in. I'm guessing the Retaliator will probably be the Polaris' biggest non-capital enemy by a wide margin. Warlock would probably be helpful here too... force the Retaliator to drift on a straight line long enough for the Polaris to blast it. I'm also thinking a Polaris with 2-4 Vanguards flying its wing would be a pretty slick recon-in-force setup that can go a long way out and back without having to bring a Starfarer along. |

I'm not really sold on the Terrapin yet, but I think it would fit the role of "AWACS" better than a Hornet Tracker. If the docking bay on the Polaris allows the Tracker to swap modules to become a Super Hornet (or just more combat focused) while out on patrol, that could be a significant consideration. |

Seems to me that a cryo chamber should work for most issues. Less space used than a brig. Of course, if you're on a patrol that's days long and you use the time out a punishment rather than a storage medium until you can get the malefactor back for trial, a brig might be an idea. |

I really fucking hope they either fix the Avenger or let non-Warlock variant pilots exit via the canopy instead of the rear. Even though it's my cheapest ship, it's still my favorite to fly... except I just don't bother lately because I'm tired of being fired out the roof or the floor when I leave the cockpit. Free-flying the Warlock has been a dream because I can actually use my danged Avenger again. |
