I've been flying around the Sirius sector in my Barracuda for the past couple days ogling at all the awesome new ships, and I wanted to say it looks fantastic!:DI enjoyed flying around in the Kadesh light fighter I found on the Rio-Grande in Colorado. Excellent name and awesome tubby look, reminded me of the tough little F4F (tub) Wildcat from World War II.
The regenerating shields and Nanobot and Shield Battery using NPC 's through me for a loop at first, but I quickly adapted by equipping more pulse weapons to keep their shields down. Although the lack of class 4, 5, and 6 pulse weapons put a bit of a damper on that strategy.
My biggest challenge so far has been the Corsairs in Britonia, which seem to be addicted to bots, batts, and insane evasive maneuvers in their uber nimble Legionaries. It took me 10 minutes to take a single one down one time! And that was with a buddy!:ohmy: So, I learned to avoid Anti-Corsair missions and headed for Kusari space where I found the blood dragons to be more manageable. :cool: During my travels I found 2 friends to help even the odds. Mike_Fire and Orfeus. Thanks for hanging in there with me against the invincible wingless wonders (after we shot them clear off :laugh:) Orfeus! Oh, I would like to mention that I'm on the Discovery RP server 82.113.48.5 and I love the huge numbers of people there.
To wrap things up I would like to say excellent mod job! Best I've ever seen! And I would love it if one of our discovery veterans would post a complete list of Freelancer and Discovery ships with pictures, stats, where to buy, and which faction(s) (if any) use / own it; for each ship. It could be a series where each post lists all the ships of a faction or all the ships in a class like light fighters. From the other posts I've read, I am sure many people would appreciate this immensely. If you know someone with the skills and resources to pull this off, please send them an email on my behalf!
Zorson over and out!
