I haven't said it before but I'd like to use a fighter, also, exactly how many ships can you afford?

I haven't said it before but I'd like to use a fighter, also, exactly how many ships can you afford?

as many as we need

although i dont know if we're going to be able to field more than 4 or maybe 5 battleplatforms. the prices of the ship are as follows:

Battleplatform: 375 million
Frigate: 70 million
Fighter: 0.3 million

We can have all the frigates and fighters we want but Battleplatforms cost a fortune.

how many credits do you have? And holy stuff that battleplatform is expensive, I think you should keep everybody as a fighter pilot but promote the best pilots so you don't end up with brilliant fighter pilots and stuffty frigate ones

That's the way it should be lol

To the people choosing fighters: Keep in mind that fighters are the most difficult roles to play in the game. AI turrets are very accurate, rapid-fire kill machines and fighter pilots have to be very good at not getting hit at all. A good fighter pilot is just as effective as a good capital ship pilot because tying up all of their turrets on a target they'll never hit is an extremely useful advantage, but one misstep can end up with your ship getting blown to smithereens in a volley of laser blasts. You're also responsible for targeting turrets rather than ships, and turrets are much smaller targets that require a bit more aiming to hit.

But by all means, if you're confident in your piloting ability we could definitely use good fighter pilots.


The easiest ship to fly would probably be the frigate, with the next easiest being the battle platform since almost all of the firepower is automated and avoidance isn't as critical to survival since they can take a hit.

That's the way it should be lol

but if your fighter pilots are stuff and they get destroyed it's not nearly as much a financial blow as if you lose a frigate because the pilot does something suicidal


VVVVValso this pleaseVVVVV

What server is this even on? It would be a nice thing to put in the op or at least tell me over skype/steam or something.

It doesn't really matter what the losses are. As long as we get our job done the payment will more than cover any catastrophic losses. What really matters is having people stay in the fight and survive and if they're not good pilots they have a much better chance at contributing to the fight in a frigate than in a fighter where they'll be fed to a turret in the first 10 seconds.

Illusive gaming

If you have team speak or mumble also let us know so we can pick one that is more convenient to coordinate

What server is this on? I have 23 million on one of the servers already and it might be the same.

Ill join, but I'll bring my own ship.
It hasn't been battle-tested yet, so ill keep in the semi-support role of firing tons of missiles.

Ingame name: SnowingLeopard
I have Teamspeak & Skype.

Got any screenshots of it? Also need to know stats like turret loadout, weapon DPS, shields, mass, price etc etc

It would be cool if the fighters were docked in the battle platform, so we could swarm out at the start of the battle.
Also, are the fighters branded with their name?

Someone should record this because this fight sounds loving epic.

No ):

But on the radar they'll be named whatever names the pilot request. So for targeting and logistic purposes the name is useful.

Wanna participate? :P

This shipyard is operated by 3 allied factions so there's going to be a lot of resistance.
