I'm sooooo fecking pissed off......

Once yet again...I have lost all the fucking video due to a crash.......

I lost my ship on take off......Just spun around and went boom.....I then was booted out and could not connect to server......

I got back in.....But it seems that crash completely knackered the video......It stopped recording even though it was showing as still going onscreen.....

There were some absolutely priceless moments as well.......There really was.....

Gutted aint the word.....

:( :x


I'm am a little sad to hear this. Kharma, I have an idea though. We can try again on the Weekend to recreate all our mischief and in the end we will be creating all new Mischief :)

And because of last night I am going to setup ShadowPlay so I can record as well. There has to be some epic bloopers coming ;)

Cheer up, Beer is on me!

That moment when you accidentally press boost instead of "UP" thrust while heading out of a station in a fully loaded Anaconda. Knowing you are going to miss the mailslot and there is only one outcome. Ouch!

Sorry to hear about the crash Kharma. :(

Was just at a few CZs, and for some reason I get the feeling that FD is monkeying around with the damage tables again.
Yesterday my multis were cutting through armour with no problems. Today I'm pumping round after round at close range at a Master level vulture and Deadly Python and their armour is barely coming down.
My C3T Bursts have also decided to go to sleep today. They seem to be taking their own sweet time to track even though I've been using the same strategies as before.
I'm beginning to get this sinking feeling that in order to balance the NPCs with the big ships, they've been buffed up.

Have fun, fly safe. o7

P.S.: Sorry to hear about the crash Kharma. Know the feeling of loosing a ship at dock. Even though that was my fault.

Taking part in taking snowballs into Hell. CG Bento to Hel, many many Cmdr's to many to name there. Nice to see so many people.

Started with an Anaconda, but since you can only have 12t of cargo, seemed like overkill so broke out the Asp to do it instead.

With you on the multis, F_D, I've just been in the Asphodel CNB & it was taking about 3 or 4 clips (and I use 3 x 2F/G!) to off a mere Asp Scout :(

Seemed to me that the recharge time on shields has been nuked too, with 4 pips I only got 1 ring back between leaving the CNB & touching down, I'm certain it was much faster than that a couple of days ago.

From what I've seen on YouTube, the Bi-Weave isn't so much faster to recharge that it's worth sacrificing THAT much overall oomph (Using A6 atm) to get them. Nowhere near 50%, more like 15%. i.e. useless gimmick, just like prismatics.

I've already flogged my 2nd A6 SCB as I just can't stand to see so many sparks in the cockpit of Monty :(

Seriously considering splashing an extra 84 mill to upgrade the bulkheads from mil-spec to mirrored, and adding at least one more HRP. If FD wanna nerf shields, the only logical answer seems to be to beef up the hull and carry on tanking, and DAMN the expense!

I'll have to part with my Courier to do it though. Not so much for the new bulkheads themselves (got ~90 mill 'cash'), more to be certain I can cover the extra 5 mill in insurance & still have some 'walking about money'. Not gonna make THAT mistake!

One surprise I got was discovering that I've now got a planetary approach suite. Wasn't expecting that! But as I won't be getting Horizons for a long time, guess I'll just get rid of it & get my tiny cargo bay back again.

Anyway, I'm not gonna whine about the changes, I'm just gonna learn to work with them. I'm saving my vitriol for the BGS situation :evil:

Introducing my new Planetary Exploration Ship.

She has a Class 4G hangar with 2 Buggies. Advanced Discovery Scanner as well as Detailed Surface Scanner. She is A Rated and can haul only 16 tonnes, but that should be more than enough to bring home the stuff I find.

Why are people taking more than one buggy?

Trying different load-outs on Nightshade, started with a large beam and multis, but I think people are right about the multis being nerfed, so now on pulse and just 2 x multis, this seems a lot better.

Got to say the new FDL is definitely improved on it's previous iteration, still not sure it's worth the price tag though, but hell it looks nice.
