From a project management standpoint the dates are pretty encouraging since only a few of them are near the critical path. Most of the items have a lot of slip available before it impacts 3.0 (although it would invariably impact 3.1 still). I gotta get off my ass and start working on my PgMP. |

Eclipse Q&A here
Boiling it down: -no plans for rotary bays for smaller torpedoes. 3x S9 is it -won't fit in a Polaris, but will in a Javelin -longer ranged than Gladiator but less than Harbinger -straight line speed of a Gladius, maneuverability less than a Gladiator -squishy. 300i squishy. Basically drop your torpedoes and get the fuck away fast. Personally my plan is to use the 'if you can make it fit' loose cargo stacking to fill the torpedo bays with high dollar low volume contraband to run.
Will I be able to purchase a large cloth to keep this covered in my hanger? While the Historical Truth Act has permitted an unprecedented release of previously-classified UEEN military information (including the existence of the Eclipse bomber) it has NOT authorized any discussion of the Crusader Industries B419-AR Tactical Stealth Utility Tarp (TSUT.) Any discussion of its capabilities or availability should be reported to the nearest Advocacy agent. |

Glad I picked a Eclipse up. Might be a great little ship to start a war. Sneak in recon a little bit, drop a load and shoot out of there while a bigger force rolls up.

Big gangs of stealth bombers in Eve were great fun when I played. Hoping for some of the same type of game play here. Where one isnt capable of delivering enough damage in one volley to kill much of anything significant but a few of them can be used to disable defenses, disrupt logistics, or create diversions with hit and hide attacks. Allowing stuff that can actually fight come in and mop up. This ship meshes with that vision pretty damned seamlessly. Hell, all we'd need then is a Herald news ship with all stealth components who can follow behind and catch the big boom for the highlight reel. Of course, my vision also included putting organizations on retainer. For a small monthly fee, our services would not be available against them. |

Okay that's cool. They're working on a smart display system for TV/Ads in the game. Bascially it'll figure out in game player interests and show targeted (fake) ads that your character might be interested in. Proximity or action based, but will also work as TVs for news, etc. 4 minutes for that. Haven't watched the rest yet, as I'm heading out the door.

I was interested in this game along time ago. I played eve for many years and liked the universe aspect of it and this looked really good. My biggest problem is the amount of time and vaporware type of crap that was going on early on. I am probably wrong about the vaporware part of it as it has been many years but the game does look pretty good now.
Is this game like completely out? ready to play? Or is it still in development and if so when is the expected launch date? I am currently without a game which is a rare instance since i started way back on atari in the 80's |

I really like the concept, but I wish the fighters were sleeker. Their designs look too much like they were inspired by ww2 era aircraft. I don't see any modern influences. The Hornet looks like a mess. I guess I'm just too particular about that aspect. Gameplay looks great, though.

There is a mix of sleek and more classical/brutal looking ships in there. The logic for some of them is that the design has been in service for a hundred or two years with just the odd hardware/software upgrades. More common because they are cheap to fly, but there are newer and fancier models out there as well. |

Think of it like a bloodier version of finding the toy at the bottom of a crackerjack box.

So you can do the baby persistant universe, PVP, PVE, racing, FPS shooter (Star marine), your hangar, and Arc Corp, although I think Arc Corp is getting killed off when the 3.0 patch comes out since you'll be able to fly there instead of loading into it. Baby PU has two landing areas, short missions, lots of hidden stuff, etc. |

I think you can buy them for REC earned in Vanduul swarm and the like from the Voyager Direct store on the RSI site. 3.0 might be getting rid of that for earning money in game and the like, but can't remember off the top of my head. Remember, other than basic performance passes, a lot of balance work hasn't been done on the ships. For example, the Sabre was near impossible to kill for a good while due to a bug in the shield coding. You had to pretty much get a godly alpha strike on one to drop the shields. Was something silly like a misplaced decimal on the recharge rate I think. The size of the weapons on your ship and type also matter.

I don't like some of the designs too, but there are plenty of sleek craft. I have a Sabre and Cutlass black. Both of them are pretty bad ass looking (well the new Cutlass is at least). The Gladius also looks amazing. The baseline Hornet looks so so but military model looks fucking awesome and much sleeker. The 300i is pretty sleek and is getting a rework soon so it should look even better. The new Eclipse looks amazing but is not a multi role craft. It's a pure bomber. I want one real bad but can't justify buying one. ETA: Just learned the M50 isn't available? Exactly what is up with the marketing of this game? |

Lot of neat stuff coming down the pipe.
-Ships and components are hitting item 2.0 conversion (pic below) Although I think that was just tossing data onto the screen to make it stick, since the M50 doesn't have turrets or a capital class jump drive.
-Backend logic coding is getting put into 2.0 as well. So they don't have to individually code everything. They can create a generic <lets say airlock> code, then just use that as a global code with a small modifier wherever they need it. They were doing coding for everything. Modularity on the backend is really going to speed things up on the item/content making side. -Grabby Hands 2.0 is awesome. (put above the Ship 2.0 image because it is smaller) -Delmar looks neat

I may have said this already, but I'm disappointed that they're turning the M50 and 350R in to strict racers. I liked the idea that they could be interceptors. I'm holding out hope for some kind of high-speed smuggler or courier.
