What happens with barges in 4.86?

[Decerebrated.Individual]

Ship models sometimes get replaced, but we never "get rid" of a ship entirely. That would cause too many problems. Usually, in terms of ship-usage, you'll be notified if you absolutely need to swap out your ship. But the Barge seems to be staying mostly open-use, to those with the proper IDs. I haven't seen any notifications for Barge-changes come 4.86.

When your ship is worth 500 million bucks, it would be kind of a loss to have to sell it for half the price in a few days..

And another thing. Why do you even think there will be a 4.86? I mean come on.

Dont they would have made all those storyline posts and ship models just to fool us.

They would give you back full price or equivalent ship.
Also, that was a joke.

Thats not what I heard about when the phantoms took those 2 fighters which everyone loved.

The Staff will make no guarantees of anything...ever, especially things like this. You never know what might happen.

They were replaced with equivalent ships, and the models and names were taken for a new ship line.

Because Zelot has hidden my posts, and edited yours without pointing neither out, I refuse to honnor you with any furhter post on this matter, knowing that my and other's words will be changed to suit somebody else's whims.

I might post again on other matters though, if you are lucky.

Barges are too slow and can't escape from Gallic invasion.
All barges should get GRN IDs.

Well, I'd prefer them getting Jinx's model in 4.86, but who cares.

Nope nope nope, all Barges should have GMS IDs. Eet is ze will of Ze Arch!

Anywho, I doubt the admins would've pulled down the SRP and had Dieter repeatedly beat his head against his desk with the sheer volume of Barge requests if they're just going to undo all that work in a few months/years/decades when .86 comes out.

Don't let anyone in on my little secret, but I've heard from a good source that the water commodity is going to change into a new kind of ore come 4.86. they'll add in a new water commodity that is sold on less bases and is almost profitable to trade. Shhh :wacko:

EDIT: Oh snap not a PM

False, only the Slipstream (LF) was replaced. Lib forces got nothing in exchange of the Raven Claw (shadow?)

On an other subject.

From what I know as a dev team member, the barge, FROM WHAT I KNOW, will not be altered

No they wouldn't. Admins don't refund you if your current ship/ID set up becomes an illegal loadout when the mod is updated. They give you ample time to find a new ship before they burn you, but they do not refund you your cash. At least that is how it went last time.
