The DFN- A Starmade Faction [RECRUIT ALL THE PEOPLE!]

[Midella]

You drawing from past events there? :p

Maybe I am, but the DFN needs to be seen as strong.

 

[Incap]

Oh god, don't get Incap started on "Efficient", They murdered me when i used it XD

Yeah to be fair, my definition of efficient is a craft that can fire and move without draining it's power supply really quickly. Not a massive block that can shoot 1.2 million dps for only about 3 seconds

Makes sense. Although Something you call efficient might be crushed by that massive block.

If it can even accelerate fast enough to catch you.

Some servers have a very low max speed. But yes that is a valid point.

To be honest, most ships I build are energy efficient. At the very least they drain energy very, very slowly. And I never, ever use Energy tanks. My larger ships also don't have static guns, mostly turrets and missiles that do the work. I prefer my captains focus on shield and external damage rather than pointing their nose at someone. My fighters tend to accelerate quickly and use less of a shield tactic and more "Hit and Run" tactics. Hit and not be hit. My fighters tend to not exceed 50m, and my bombers no more than 150. It genuinely varies though.

You. I like you.

 

[EvanDarksky]

You. I like you.

Haha. Now if only I could make the big ships look good. I make decent fighters, bombers, and shuttles. Anything bigger looks, quite literally, like a turd. Mostly because I don't practice big ships often. I hope to have one of these in my fleet some day. I loved it in EVE.

There was a whole faction based around using Amarr design ships called the Calderon Republic. I would go for something new and fresh. Large ships are my specialty, so don't hesitate to ask me to build you something.

I'll keep it in mind. And I wasn't hoping to base it all entirely off the Amarr. I just really liked that particular ship design. To be honest, not many large ships in EVE are visually appealing, and the new Apoc Navy Issue was the one that I liked the most.

 

[Midella]

Large ships are hard to make appealing. If you are one of the few who can do that... props to you.

 

[EvanDarksky]

What would you guys say is an acceptable DPS for a single fighter?

 

[FlyingDebris]

Depends on the size, dimensions, role...

For a good interceptor, I'd say about 20-30k. We've actually gotten ships under 200m long to do 400k, but they're a little...boxy, one could say.

 

[Incap]

For a GOOD interceptor I'd say 1k.

Don't listen to Debris. He's become mired in paranoia and overcompensation because of the evil Vaygr boogeyman.

 

[Planr]

Glad to have the DFN back on NASS :D

Little does Debris realise that the Vaygr aren't evil...
In fact, this conflict's not white vs black. It's in shades of grey.

Or maybe we just got good at insides...

 

[bendm09]

I'm pretty sure it would be abuse of privileges for me to do such a thing. Even if it is my special day. ;p

Yaaar git dat bootay and start swabbing yee hearty's.

well get permission from the people you do it to first

Actually I have found that the vaygr as a whole are not a bunch of bad guys. The only member of the Vaygr I have ever really found to be "evil" is the leader, Zoro. The other members are fairly level-headed compared to their bloodthirsty head honcho.

 

[FlyingDebris]

Agreed.
