They promised these features more than a year ago.

This is the first time they actually showed us some of the results of the progress they kept telling us about all though 2015.

Can anyone think of a legitimate reason why gundams wouldn't exist in the star citizen universe?

Any civilization that has access to this level of technology should be able to create large mechanized suits that mimic the actions of a human body. That seems like it would be much better for fighting in zero gravity then something that barely mimics the functionality of a 20th century atmospheric jet.
>>
>>127731274
Messer gassed the weebs
>>
>>127731274
The reason is that human-sized suits, i.e. power armor, make sense, and will exist.

But there is no advantage whatsoever in making a humanoid-shaped tank, fighter jet or spacecraft.

It's needlessly complex and offers no advantage over a normal spaceship, tank, fighter jet or forklift.

>>
>>127770754
Okay so I don't know if it's still the case, but before, the hangars are actually TIERED, going Selfland - Aeroview - Revel and York - Asteroid, meaning if you have, say a Cutlass so you have the asteroid hangar, you also have all the other three.

It's a very silly system.

Yes, but I'm buying an Avenger right now and upgrading it to the Delta, thanks to a "gift" a friend made me one year ago. I wanted some clarifications, if I kept the Aeroview or stayed with a Selfland hangar.

you will get the hangar the delta comes with. If its a lower tier hangar, then it downgrades, if its a higher tier hangar, you get all the hangars below it.

Are hangars still going to determine starting location and such? That was what they said 2 years ago. I figure that's changed by now, but I haven't heard anything. I've got both a Cutlass and Carrack, so I can choose whatever.

It shares similarities to the Aurora but I feel like it's still too different to call it the aurora+. Maybe it could be an RSI fighter as a standalone ship.

>>127785713
Actually I got the Reliant for free from skelebro. The 325a is my original kickstarter package that I CCU'd from an Aurora MR when the dog fighting module first hit. The Cutlass is a Blue that isn't even LTI. I can't remember why I bought a Mustang, I don't think THAT is LTI either. So annoyed I didn't get an Archimedes LTI token when I had he chance, maybe I can get a Dragonfly token one day.

How is my fleet?

I'm contemplating turning the SH to a Gladiator or Freelancer MIS with the CCU's I have just in case the SH gets the nerf bat. I only bought it to protect my Endeavor, because I didn't buy a single module, I plan to get a hangar and have a pocket carrier. And all the dipshits that bought $75 dollar hangars to add onto their Endeavors will rage on the forums if it can't fit "multiple cutlasses" as noted in the description. All I have to do is earn the hangar in-game.
>>
>>127788947

Honestly, I'm either gonna ride on the SH wagon as the space-superiority fighter, or I'll just switch to the MIS so that I have a well-fitted 4-passenger escort to and from my Endeavor.

>>127787213
>Good, so knowing that, are there actual size limits to the hangars?

Currently no, it's an infinite labyrinth where they keep adding more and more room the more ships you have. Doubt they will change that in the game as it would basically punish you for having too many ships and force you to spread your ships across the universe, which doesn't achieve much.

I guess the only reason to choose asteroid is that asteroid looks cool? It's probably a matter of taste and maybe a bit of convenience, The other two hangars are probably planetside which I assume (not read anything to confirm this) means it's possible to just take the elevator and go to the shops. I don't know if asteroid hangars will have shops in that close proximity.
>>
>>127789357
SH would make a better escort. Freelancer as it stands now is just barely able to defend itself from jousting retards, much less be an escort. MIS only gives it the option for fire support with missiles, not dogfighting.
>>
>>127790532
Hangers can have infinite rooms added, but there is apparently a max size for each room. They were talking about how they had to expand the r&y hanger for the Starfarer.
>>
>>127791051
>>127789449

Thanks guys. I think I may just stay with a SH or maybe a Gladiator if I get in a skirmish with a ship as large as my Endeavor.

You think the MIS might even be somewhat more useful than a SH or Gladiator if they trim the window fitting more to have a better view?

Do we know how big the Starfarer is now?
>>
>>127791353
I assumed he was talking about fleet size rather than ship size but that's true. The hangars are supposed to be able to fight the Starfarer and Caterpillar so they're going to be pretty big. I believe the Idris was confirmed as being able to land on planets, but unable to fit in hangars so it'll be on a landing pad or space dock (which is in space, but for this pose "landing on a planet" means storing it somewhere safely so you can go offline without losing it).
>>
>>127789887

Then perhaps he should turn the Freelancer MAX into a Merchantman and melt the Harbinger and get a Super Hornet?

Got any suggestions?

Ok, good point. I have one last question to ask of you:

Which do you think would have more potential cargo space? The Super Hornet switching to the "cargo-box" the F7C has, or the torpedo bay that switches out with a cargo container?

I want to say that torpedoes would take up much more space, but I don't have any figures to run off of to speculate well.

If you got the Starfarer, can't you carry enormous amounts of cargo already? Or is that only for fuel?

I would use the remainder of your money on a throw-away LTI fighter of some sort in case shit hits the fan. But if you are solely bent on trading and hauling, then get the Hull B at least.

Depends on the use. I doubt the MIS would make a good escort on its own withhout friendly fighters to run interference while it hangs back and lobs missiles. It's just too heavy to intercept and dogfight enemies going after a target unless they try to joust like idiots and get chewed up by the 4x S3s (yes they're still that good).

More visibility would be nice but won't make a big difference at this time unless CIG changes the Freelancers handling to be a little more maneuverable.
