    One thing i feel we desperately need is multi crew bed logging. If we're going to be repairing our ships and traveling further and further out into other systems we need to bring back crew logging so its easy to hop in and out with sessions with friends or orgs

    • @luistigerfox
      @luistigerfox Місяць тому +31

      I think when they run into the next iteration of long term persistence they're gunning for people logging back in wherever they logged off. I know that's an end goal, and logging in a bed is just supposed to provide a rest bonus at that point.

    • @blackmamba___
      @blackmamba___ Місяць тому +33

      The plan is to remove bed logging so you can log off anywhere and once you log back in, you just pick up where you left off.

    Two things:
    1) When are we getting rid of the automatic doors that will vent half the ship when you just go near them. Also the option to lock the doors.
    If pirates want my ship they should have to force their ways through doors.
    2) Where is the beacon/quantum jump point for ships. Say your ship goes dead in space and you want to come back with replacement parts.
    Without a way to mark your location this ship will be lost to space.

    Considering everything, I would love if we get a power plant eject button on single-seater ships that don't have internal spaces. Something where you know you're going to go down as you're power plant is dead in the water, and you can't do anything about it (say Gladius or more importantly a ship without an ejection seat like the Bucc) so you do an emergency ejection of the power plant and hope to survive the crash landing.

Or what if the speed was already reduced and gear is down, but you are still about to blow up. Ejecting yourself might kill you from the height, but ejecting the power plant gives you the opportunity to safely land, especially if you have passengers with you (Like the cutter or Aurora).

    I would have thought the ideal solution would be something like:
    - Armor soaks up to a maximum amount of damage from a single collision with any damage exceeding the armor's soak limit penetrating into the structure(s) below.
    - When armor soaks damage, it ablates some percentage of the soaked damage degrading its ability to soak further damage.
    - All values are tracked in a texture map, thus impacts spread out across the surface of ship is less likely to degrade any single point of the armor significantly. This would make big ships significantly tougher vs. small weaponry AND it would make hard hitting weapons actually epic feeling.
    Is this basically what they're describing?

    • @DarthPoyner
      @DarthPoyner Місяць тому +1

      What you are describing is a slightly more component system that Cyberpunk Red uses in their TTRPG. It works really well in my opinion. Your armor rating for a specific body part deducts from the total damage. Anything over that is subtracted from your HP and if the damage does exceed the armor, then the armor is ablated (rating lowered) until it is destroyed or repaired. Allows for penetration weapons or ablative weapons (rending), and works evenly across all possible weaponry.
      Now I just want to know how their disrupter weaponry works.

      That sounds good in theory, but you have to worry about the meta game play. You would have to give just an astronomic amount of options or someone will just go to a website and get a read on the best loadouts. Which, if their are multiple loadouts to answer situations, then that isn't so bad. Say 6 different loadouts for a specific ship during combat depending on what result you want. While having 3 loadouts for travel depending on the main focus.
      So long as there isn't just 1 or 2 loadouts that are optimized for every ship.

    Hi CIG, a few questions:
    1) With all the added work going into running a multcrew ship, it really highlights a major concern by the community: What advantages, other than quantum range, does crewing a multicrew ship have over everyone piloting single seaters of their own? The engineering gameplay looks fun, but the added hassle has to be worth it somehow.
    2) Could you elaborate on planned changes to the 400i, especially in regards to engineering? She was renowned for her legendary speed and component redundancy ... yet you nerfed her speed and now removed her redundancy as well by zapping two-thirds of her power plants and coolers. Is there going to be some sort of special gimmick about her so she doesn't just in turn into a $250 dollar paper weight? Right now, she's ... well ... kinda sh*t.
    3) What frequency of engineering events can we expect? If players man the turrets, and one player needs to keep an eye on the engineering station, how many players are expected to be on repair duty during combat?

    If you make these chores so intrusive that they literally stop combat, all you’ll do is reinforce the “use the smallest ships for everything” meta.

      I agree on the basic principle that multicrew ships need to be much more powerful than equal player amount of single-seaters for any task. However the single seaters with outside mounted components are going to have a bad time when their powerplants and coolers take hits. That will basically start a ticking clock on how fast they must either win, escape or surrender, the more they abuse the already damaged systems by boosting to control the engagement the more those systems will degrade. And to repair them they have to stop and EVA...

    • @piedpiper1172
      @piedpiper1172 Місяць тому +1

      @@EeroafHeurlin I wouldn’t even say “more powerful.” Parity would be a fantastic start. Even in the most simplistic terms, imagining a hypothetical ship with exactly 8x the dps and 8x the total “toughness” (shield/armor/general difficulty to hit/speed all added up) of an F7A would present a meaningful alternative to flying 8 F7As (assuming it had access to weapons that can hit them). The primary advantage of such a ship is that it does not degrade in combat power as quickly as the fighters do. Each fighter out of the fight removes a full 1/8th, while a lot of damage must be done to the multicrew to even get through the shields, during which time it’s not degrading at all.
      But even that’s not what we have right now. A huge quantity of multicrew ships have just terrible crew combat power. Who is excited to log in and be the tail gunner for the Redeemer, Freelancer, or Hammerhead in a game with Master Modes that compels fights to seek nose-to-nose engagements and literally locks you out of being able to fire weapons and run away at top speed? Even the best turrets in the game are pretty meh. The Scorpius and Hurricane have viable turrets, but both have those turrets in the wrong place (they should be chin mounts for the front-arc-dominated combat of both 6DOF and even more so Master Modes), and both turrets are still pretty weak compared to… just flying two Corsair’s.
      It doesn’t matter that the Corsairs are less maneuverable, the Scorpius can really only maximize evasion vs one, so a team should be getting shots in (this is, btw, what we see happen in basically all pvp tournaments that allowed multicrew-two fighters just pincer the 2-seater and take turns kiting it).
      And your point about components would be more compelling if big ships could reliably hit fighters. Which is exactly why I am so focused on the need for flak / anti-smaller-than-yourself weapons. A ship’s toughness only matters when it gets hit, and big ships desperately struggle to land even single hits on competent fighters operating at their own range limits.
      If your multicrew runs ballistic, one clean hit might do it, but now you’re ammo limited.
      Run energy and you’ll need enough hits to knock down their shields and hit them again to have a chance at component damage-but the fighters have total control of the engagement range and can just drop back to recharge the fastest charging shields in the game.
      This isn’t even a fighters vs large ship problem either. It’s a everything fighting anything 2-3 sizes bigger than itself problem. The Idris is gonna struggle to land those S10 shots on a Corsair as badly as the Hammerhead struggles to hit fighters now. Even S7 and S8 turrets on the Idris and Jav are gonna have pretty real issues vs the faster medium and large ships without access to flak.

    The mechanics look excellent, being able to quickly apply presets is cool, it will really add more reasons to have (and be) crew, and I hope engineering comes into its own as the game matures. However without changes to shield pools and the introduction of armour (armor) ships are likely to soft-death far faster than engineers can keep up with.

    If we shoot ballistics through the cockpit/bridge of a ship, will it kill the crew?

      Cockpits are made of see through metal. But I suppose if you have enough ammo and the crew just lets you once melstrum is in the game sure, it's possible physics wise.

    Anyone else think this is getting overly complicated? Starting to sound like more unavoidable gameplay. So now not only will we we have to travel to 3 separate planets for component supplies, we also need to babysit all the components. Dude, I just want to fly.

      This is what will make exploration gameplay actually have some jeopardy in the future - they have said for the most part you don't have to get involved if you don't want to.
      If you don't fight people it won't really be an issue

    The problem when making a game into the perfect real life simulation is that you also have to build the parts that are tedious and boring in real life and which are why we play GAMES in which the boring parts from real life are excluded. The ship management gameplay sounds incredibly boring. Managing AC? Managing CO2? Come on! I hope that the ship can self manage that or theres an option to switch that off.

      btw I've been following this game since the very first kickstarter in 2013 or so. 11 years. But it feels like this is getting ridiculous. Dont get me wrong: I wish there was a way to make the engineering gameplay actually exciting and fun, but from what I see I doubt it.
