I got and held onto the inferno post its launch nerf as I loved its design and handling even if its nerfs were rough (never got to experience it back in its hay day). Glad to see it’s finally getting another buff to bring it back to something more viable.
Can't wait for the ion rework. The only problem with the ion charge mechanic was that you could not hold down left click, but if they revers it, It's even better
People who winge about the Ares being a light fighter seal clubber just suck at dog fighting, seriously it's an elephant with a artillery piece attached to it. Iv downed more Ares in light fighters than I can count. Only an issue if I'm in a larger ship like another heavy fighter or a Connie ect.
The ammo counter and heat meter are in the WORST possible locations; did an intern design that shit? The ammo counter/heat bar should absolutely be practically at the center of the screen, where my EYES are looking at the target.
Yogi stated earlier today that they’re getting rid of the charge shot but that will be after 4.0 releases. So hopefully they get back to a good place. It’s a tough balancing act to get the Ares to be good at what they’re meant to do (be used in strike formation in a fleet to soften up capital ship defences) without also making them into the only fighter you need to effectively dog fight every other fighter in the game.
Just want to see a cool off and not a forced reload. If I shoot 100 rounds and wait for a bit. I should be able to shoot 250 rounds not 150. Edit: Looks like they fixed it... cool beans.
I melted my ION after it kept getting beatin (like a redheaded stepchild) with shitty reworks and "nerf". I don't think I'll get another Ares any time soon... unless I fulfil my CCU chains and get bored.
I'm the same way but only in star citizen can I see people say "I'm bored so I'm going to play this money game on the website" I too melted my ion multiple times here's to hoping it's good!
I think the amount of rounds all ballistic weapons carry is way to low to justify using them over energy weapon in anything other than competitive PvP.
I read the comment about the Ion, but I’m not sure if they revert it to .23. I’d like it, but they could also run it on a slower rpm. Hmmm… can’t wait cause it’s so terrible rn, it made me quit playing the game for 5 months straight XDD
This has been my favourite ship since the release of it from design to sound to playstyle so im glad its back to beeing good
It’s about DAMN TIME!
Thanks for testing and sharing!
By far the best asymmetrical design in the game

They need to up the dmg too for ion as well

@piranhax6466 or make it distortion
Thanks for clutch info, I was boutta buy the mirai Guardian, but now I think I'll buy this since the DPS isnt even comparable between the two.
Buy it in game. Only 4.5 mil. Guardian is new and you can melt it later if you don't like it. o7
Nice ending of the mission
Back in business
The Terripin currently has the highest ship HP in the game. Nothing even comes close except the Polaris.
Wrong, The Constellation Andromeda has 180,644hp the Terrapin has 168,201hp

This!
All hail inferno
Let's hope they do the Ion justice!
they are

Id be happy if they gave 1000 more ammo

How's the rearm cost?
Now if only they'd fix the damned Corsair!
Amazing! I am so happy they buff them this ships are worth like 250 pledge to just suck
Nice video! Ammo is pronounced with a short a, rather than a long a. Same as "alphabet".
see now it playing like that makes me want to get it but how it is now i did not but it during the event they had

This ships were always capital killers but they nerf them once people use them and starter to kill the smaller ships like nothing,

Not being able to see your reticle to shoot your target because of the sparks flying, is a problem.

The Inferno is one of thpse ships that cannot be balanced, it will always be either too op or too weak.
You should thank CIG for making these ships balance with there intended role, not some OP bounty toy for idiots......man up
Did you watch video before you commented? o7
Would take any Vanguard or Cutlass over that useless ship.
Yeah, buy only in game.
