Okay... assuming 3 games per hour you have to get killed nearly 5 times in each game. Not likely, unless you face premades pretty often... Anyway... I will come to the birthday party, trying to make sure all candles will be blown out

Hah... did you fall in love with my char on game 9?

BTW Would be nice to post time also in UTC... Especially with daylight time that is additionally confusing. Not everyone is from US/Canada, you know Assuming it is 3-6pm Pacific *Standard* Time it will be 11pm-2am UTC

Planning to stay for the duration of the event... hope I will find a team this time Character name: Challintra. Republic side, all ships, moderately to severely upgraded, none mastered yet.

It;s because T2 scouts are totally overpowered, people don't want to fly those ships - they want to give opponents a chance And seriously - this is a sickness on every server, so don't count that switching server will change it.

There is an Imp guild that was started as a response to Ghost Squadron - "Spectre Squadron". Too little people though on Impside anyway...

As I said before - shooting when you won't hit isn't bright. Shooting when you have a "small chance of hit" is different... sure, in open space fight it sucks, but near sat it is actually useful. And fun

Seriously? I had a match with epic battle for B node, with mostly strikes and scouts (rarely seen a bomber, never got hit by mine or GS) and killing was pretty heavy on both sides. I can agree that gunships are ballanced in stock Domination (stock configuration = bad in close combat). In TDM though they have too much advantage.

In TDM this was all about 'everybody with gunship in hangar hop into gunship'. In Domination bombers were disrupting the ballance as well (however, less people had bombers in hangar). Sure, there were few good matches (one TDM ended 49:50 from 49:48 ), but I think that it would be much better with only 2 basic ships allowed.

Thanks for the matches. Unfortunately "all ships allowed" does not go well with stock night.

A quick hint - check your timezone, it should be something like GMT-X or UTC-X Now substract the X from 21 and 24 http://www.worldtimezone.com/time-usa12.php Tl;DR: EDT: 4pm-7pm CDT: 3pm-6pm MDT: 2pm-5pm PDT: 1pm-4pm MST: 1pm-4pm (Anyone from Arizona? )

If it is, I am in... Urteon-stock and Reiko-stock

While I agree that they are worse than BLC, they have their usefullness - mostly in sat humping, where the ability to constant 'spray and pray' with frequency capacitor means at least one will hit. And when they hit, the shield arc regen is blocked, so in a war of attrition they have their use. Weak? Yes. Useless? no.

How much do you have? I have counted mine today... 5850 battles, with 34 days of my life lost

Starfighter passes - but they won't do anything for subscriber, just increase f2p/preferred to subscriber level. Also, I forgot to add - CM versions of ships have 10% increase fo reqs gathered, because those ships are considered already 'mastered'.

Well... The equipment cap is unaffected by payement. You will get the same gear at the end, regardless of being f2p or sub. There are no bonuses for p2p players except the progress speed. No damage bonus, no speed bonus etc. The only difference isspeed of progress - P2P players go 50% faster, excluding daily/weekly rewards that have the same value regardless of sub status. So, while it will take longer, f2p player can become an ace pilot as well.

Edit: Nvm, I dont have cartel ships on Impside Congrats By the way, how much flights on each character did you have?

Problem persists for years and apparently devs aren't doing anything about it. I did the same mistake, buying in haste mats for conquest farming I had my revenge though - unsubbed for a month And seriously, don't know who had this brillant idea of placing comma after 3 digits but this person deserves to make the same mistake on ebay

Blue24.... LOL.

The pops got better later. Though I was often running into Drako&Xiayou group and with my team... well, it was bad Thanks for the event - it was fun anyway

Meh. Solo que times - 15-20 minutes.

I am afraid it will be pretty little used. Both scouts that have it (Novabolt and Spearmark) have much better options (EMP field and Tensor Field respectively), so Sensor Beacon won't be a good option. It can have some use in Mesas TDM, in Domination maybe too (place in hard to get location so enemies won't bother with destroying it... or near sat), but I don't think it will be too good. EMP field is useable every 45 seconds and reduces accureacy by 20%, disables turrets and drones, destroy mines... Tensor Field is a must in higher level TDM. Sure, with teanplay it can be pretty nice (accuracy reduction is cumulative with other debuffs) but for solo que I'd suggest EMP/Tensor. Or Targetting Telemetry with Rocket Pods - pretty devastating for stationary targets ...

Well, I have seen some guest pilots on RE joining the Rep side (that has heavy advantage) and bragging about their win/loss, KDR...

I was talking mostly about stats records one game with not going optimal - your stats are lowered.

in TDM with 'aces vs newbs' - no. If you show mercy, the newb will be killed for someone else, denying you the point. In Domination - sure, the best tactic for stats is to cap one sat (or no cap at all) then spawncamp. However, this will be also as frustrating for new players. Losing ;0:100 with no chance to fly to the sat at all will give the same frustration (maybe even more, since people KNOW that they are being farmed) than losing 0:1000. In a total wipeout 3-cap it is a struggle to record more than 30k damage or top 15 total kills + assists. The game just ends too quickly, and the enemy team is often so disorganized that you have to chase all over the map to pick up stats. The only stat that is likely to benefit from blowouts in either TDM or domination is Kill to Death Ratio... so you have one case of a stat that is going to benefit from blowouts and about a dozen that are negatively impacted by them. Blowouts suck for everyone, including veterans shooting for records. On Red Eclipse I have seen some guest characters joining Repside (that has a major advantage) then bragging about their stats. And they were pretty good players... so it isn't true for all situations. About 'to 3 cap or not to 3 cap' - I'd say - leave B or A/C in Denon - and 3-cap. Cap and fly away - so the other side can learn that it is better to stick to sat than chase you... however, this is my opinion only. The problem with "switching to weaker ships" is that we have only 5 slots in hangar. Since someone who mostly ques solo has to be prepared for any situation, having even one weaker ships hurt their
