      ...work outside of these constructs but it tends to lend itself more to these groups rather than strict PVP, one-size-fits-all constructions and "meta" gameplay. This is because assigning constructions specific Roles focuses it to a task, removing the "wasted" blocks. "Wasted" blocks are those...

      Minimum Effective DPS on Avarage Ships?

      ...been a big fan of this experiment of theirs. The system essentially forces you to build and play in only one way; lest you get wrecked by the META. The funny thing is; (as you've pointed out) even if you build/play according to their prescribed META and win, you'll probably still look...

      ...might do something. A hud item may highlight these "weak spots" after sufficient damage to zones of a ship to reduce the effectiveness of meta ships. This would also make retrofitting and experimentation fast. Instead of checking every nook and cranny for a system block, zones blocks may...

The notion that old configs were in any way or form "fair and balanced" is complete bullshit. And I don't know how you are...

      What happened to Starmade?

      ...I got Power 2. Nobody played legacy servers, but everyone raged about the current version that they all wanted and played. Only one weapon was META, reactor old intricate lines turned into mindless bulk blobs placed half sector away from each other, turrets were unrecognizable, shields had...

      ...out, because well... there's no point. In respect of QuickFire's argument: "we're being forced to blablabla...." This is all about "making META healthier"... ships that use exploits and lag for "point-click-win" and are not desirable on multi-player-servers... it's a joke right? ... sadly...

      ...much harder to count down between each volleys and dodge accordingly. But that's up to the builder and your piloting skill (and ability to do multitasking). If the META is to build a fleet of specialized ships that compensate each others weakness then i think we did a great job, shouldn't i ?

      Okay, I say it another way - armour can be made as cheap or costly as needed depending how the Universe update works. Until then we don't care what are the recipes and costs for any of the blocks. Because right now they are cheap and thinking about what may happen next is worthless because we...

Also, I noticed there was an argument between Derpgamerx and...

      Hey I don't want to be unpolite, so don't get rubbed the wrong way. But I am not getting paid here and to read so much text is just not worth it for me. I wanted to get a simple yes or no, maybe 5 sentences of explantion. But that's the third chunk of text and I just don't want you to waste your...

      First thing first, no matter what is claimed, everything follows a META. A RP player will optimize his ship to allow him to build a story between him, his character and the ship. PVP players will optimize their ship to fight other ships. PVE will do the same. It's just that their opponent is a...

      As I see it you're distracting from your unlogical argumentation and lack of thought you put into them. I'm not even sure why I'm answering since you will accuse me of distracting again. And that's why I just directly follow up with the answer to your question about the 1-km long freighter to...

      Except you dont need to fill every block with systems. If anything QF encourages interiors, as you're not supposed to fill every inch with systems. If you are filling your ship with mostly reactor it means your systems are too big and you clearly are doing it wrong. Just because you don't know...
