Only tangentially related, but what's with the turrets (and the tiny weapons attached to them) on single-seater ships? Why are they sacrificing tons of space on a ship for the ability to affix size 1 weapons when another gimballed or fixed weapon slot would accomplish far more?

Is the need of literally every ship to have a turret just Rule of Cool for spaceships?

I thought this thing was a fast, light little hummingbird? it feels pretty boaty, and with the low threshold for black/redout you can't even take advantage of what maneuverability it might have.
I really hope they up the G tolerances across the board.
one question is though, should they be different depending on the ship? yes it's not realistic, but it would be another tool in balancing maneuverability, and having it the same currently (if it is) doesn't feel even at all anyway.

yes it's actually quite shitty. I tried racing and had no idea what place I was even in the whole time, I can't find anything on it.

I think the real issue is that every other ship has the same one though; learning the ship's unique hud should be something you go through with everything.

The Freelancer really does seem like it's intended to be a pirate ship. Anybody slow and/or stupid dies easily, people with basic piloting skills easily counter it. So no wonder the super hornet fags hate it.

have you noticed the guns don't seem to shoot where the lead indicator is pointing? I had a hornet sitting 300m out for 10 seconds and not a single shot managed to hit him

Also, random exploding ship:

It happens when you fire, the first one vs conny is the worst example. It's like the weight of the bullets somehow fling the ship to the left or something. I have no idea but it's janky as hell. I struggled shoot the conny driving in a straight line because my ship was flinging itself about randomly.

Overall the experience of flying a freelancer can be summed up with one word: Rushed

Its also extremely unsuspecting. With a fake ship ID any merchants with escort you come across you can just pretend you're another merchant. If you see a juicy target you can drop the ID and swoop in steal everything bug out to an asteroid belt and reestablish your fake ID.

CIG really fucked themselves by trying to set up dedicated pirate ships, they should have let them fall organically out of they system like the one that inspired the cutlass in the first place. it's one thing to have ships intentionally geared toward something when you build it, but when they established it in the lore they were just setting themselves up for failure

The idea of the Cutlass is that you can be a pirate with one ship, and it's kind of cheap, and it can get the job done.

The problem is that solo piracy is gonna be next to impossible anyway, so you might as well just have a hauler and a dedicated fighter.

>>126327681

I really don't understand his attitude there. Women *do* absolutely face unique challenges in some social circles, but guess what? So do men.

It does seem that way.

Though if the Cutlass continues to get improvements, it might actually wind up being able to do the job.

fucking what.

Also, certain cargo boxes are simply too large to physically fit inside of the freelancer, which is basically Hull B and up.

Yeah, that's my idea of pirating. You steal the ship and you either get a mediocre but still sellable cargo haul, or you also get a rare haul with the ship. If you don't get either, you can still get an entire ship

So worse than what a hornet fits.

Plus, FL-33 sure sounds like a S3 gun's name.

I don't buy it, if they need a temp, the Connie has the same size slots, so the two ships should have same pilot firepower.

Connie still has better firing arcs, extra turret, more cargo, and a snubfighter. Plenty of advantages over a FL

Not too worried about the Freelancer changes. I was pretty sure the handling was a bug. Maybe not 1/10 the appropriate mass kind of bug, but it should be fine tuned later.

The guns being shrunk caused caused a little more [CONCERN]. I assume the FL33s wouldn't be as high an alpha as the S4 Berhing ballistics, but I doubt tarantulas are the appropriate temporary replacement.

Anyone get a chance to check the new top speed of the Freelancer?

Rough speed estimates from memory:
220m/s SCM
335 afterburner
1035 cruise

Agility isn't too horrible. Using afterburner literally uses the entire boost tank, just activating ab makes half the tank go poof instantly, then rest goes before you hit max speed.

The worse change is the acelleration/deceleration... It crawls to speed. Takes forever to change speeds. Hitting max cruise takes forever. And God help you if you over shoot something. Youll be a thousand clicks away before you can even cancel your forward momentum.

In your defense most websites and forums recommend cheaper i5 processors for gaming desktops. The reason is only a handful of games are processor intensive and even fewer use hyperthreading. Hell most only use one core which is why the number one recommended processors are overclocked quad cores.
