There is when I made note before that I would cut down on repetitive comments. I acknowledged the suggestions but people continue to insist that I am not listening and therefore is somewhat frustrating having to explain again and again.

Why do the TG or any NPC faction need to be the best of the best? Some here insist that these ships be "good". That is subjective. They do not need to be the best. It's not laziness. I have dozens of assets to work on. Trust me. We got plenty of work to do and I am not willing to skip on the...

You will just have to wait till we start building those factions. Don't want to go back on my word later on. Pirates are leaning towards missiles though. Lots of missiles.

Lecic Involve the community with builds? As cool as that would be, it could end in disaster. Everyone has their opinion as to the best ship. That's not the point of these vessels. They are here to be an example, serve a specific role, and to become an interactive part of the universe. Somehow...

Now this is a bit backwards I'll be honest. The easiest way to win would to then not claim territory, as your enemy would have nowhere to mine. Claim a single system, mine asteroids and kill anyone that comes in. The playerbase already does this. There are other ways to encourage risk vs reward...

Yeah guys I would ask that you wait bit before assuming things. There are as I said plenty of assets to get through and show off. As time goes on and you've seen more then perhaps we can debate this a little. Otherwise please be patient and hold off till later. There are 3 pages here already and...

Without confirming or denying anything, I am personally hoping that the new player could find a way to assemble the parts for a starter ship via starter missions around the spawn station or find a way to buy from a selection of starter ships.

Actually it has very crap shields. They were the last thing I added after power, thrusters and jump drives. It also has a very weak scanner. That said it could be made more powerful if the dish on top was docked instead. Standard armor kinda just makes sense. It's pretty much the only protection...

They will be updated. I am not sure what the plan is for them. They are pretty far from the other races in terms of the aesthetics we decided on. They might be used as a default for random factions. It's a bit iconic at this point. No reason to remove it. Also, to the few of you debating here...

Well the escort would be other ships of the Trading Guild. The freighter pays them nothing, they are all working together.

First I would like to ask everyone not get too carried away with off topic stuff or theory crafting around lore. There is a lot that has yet to be seen! Let's keep this about the ships as much as possible. Should have stated that in the OP. As it is a small freighter it might not have a PD...

Hello! Aside from managing social media I work on a lot of the in-game assets that will be present in the StarMade universe. A few others and I will use this thread to show off the work being done on the latest builds and maybe tease future releases. We will also talk about the design...

This was discussed during the livestream and it is either something we are considering or already planned. I cannot recall which.

Yes however we can set them to be devastating with shields already up. The point is that they need to and should be more powerful than the 6 block setup for another weapon. In the end that is their purpose, so it needs to be just as justified as any other weapon. Think not "why bother" when you...

This isn't about the HP system though, this is about warheads and their damage. HP system can be adjusted if it needs to be but the only thing that has to change for warheads to be viable is to increase their damage in comparison to similarly sized weapon groups. To the rest of the thread...

It has not been discussed.

100% true actually. Very good points. Maybe now we can find a value worth working towards? How much damage would you expect a self propelled system be capable of inflicting in comparison to similarly sized weapon systems?

I think once thrusters are being looked at this would be the best time to work on this. Probably not hard from a programming standpoint.

It means they haven't read it as the title of the tag suggests. It doesn't mean anything other than that. It's not as if there is some plot to raise people's posts above others. I can't tell them what to look at. It's volunteer work. There are threads they get really excited about. There are...

Shields are important, however you might be sending less internal space on shields in lieu of crew quarters. Crew will give you benefits, the best crew could make you quite a force to be reckoned with. And with that comes walls lined with (presumably) armor/hull. If by then changes need to...
