    Doom what about the Borbas Goresaber,?
    

    There was a post earlier today MADE BY A PLAYER.  It had all kinds of WRONG info.  The Borbas Goresaber was part of the post.  The post went viral and was posted all over social media sites.  As the past has shown in this game when it comes to Raids, FM, Special events (LIB, Going Rouge ect).  Until DOOMROOSTER post it, it isn't official and even then is subject to change.

    I know about that post , but the sabet was already made and im weeondering will we see it or is it scrapped.

    You are asking a question no MOD can answer.  Like you the MODs are players and not on the Dev team.  Sorry I can't tell you what you want to hear, but I honestly don't have and can't get that answer.  Only DR and the Devs knows this info.

    I know you cant mate thats why i asked doom because if he already throwed this maybe he could have thrown some about the b saber

    Normal work day at Kixeye . I had Jail Bars Twice does that make me an Double Badass ?

    If the stats that ship has are accurate, it's pretty game changing.  It'll be an answer to crusaders.  
    and interceptors , may build up faster than they can dissipate the buildup ! 
    I hadn't even considered interceptors, unless they have frosty with them, a crusader fleet can massacre them.

    From the feed back they got last time, tokens price will be significantly lower...
    I more so hope they have more to redeem, Yes price was on the high side but i was more disappointed in the amount of time i could get.

    Everybody was disappointed. But I blame myself for believing in kixeye that they will give us unlimited tokens. What the hell are we thinking? 
    I'm not hoping for unlimited tokens this time also, just hoping that the price would be significantly lower than last time.

    Depends on how you play I guess, but for me, the tokens were 'cost effective' but not amazingly so. It still took a few coins to get each token, and that meant that essentially my coins were 'worth more' in game. But it wasn't like tokens were free to get. I kind felt like if it costs me coins to get tokens, the whole system is broken.

    If you are already a coiner, though, tokens can be worth the effort.

    Is it worth getting this ship over my r10 nukes... I'll get the weapon definately... don't have time past 3 valkyries and a couple goresabres to build that's 4 months of new ships not counting refits

    Yes. Just the built-in 3x Supercharge does that. It means you build up stacks 3 times faster than normal.

    Lets not forget that it has 4 specials, base armor is higher and faster base combat speed. Also probably lower build time that the NC's

    Build time is known. 5 days, 14 hours

    Yeah, I know. I think the NC was either the same, or slightly longer. Been a while, can't remember

    The original talk about borbas, was in the description of the goresaber. The Goresaber, was a version of borbas's personal goresaber. There was never a mention of a flag version, though the Data miners found the coding in the game. I think they saw what the players could do, with just the goresaber and decided not to show it, Yet

    Funny you mention that. There's talk around the office of trying to implement a VXP transfer feature that would let players move existing VXP or ranks to other ships. It would probably have some sort of time cost associated to it, but this would let players with your situation avoid that pain. Thoughts?
    That my Friend would be freckin AWESOME!!!!!! ranking NC (cause the BOOM! don't count towards VXP) was the biggest pain in the hole!!!! stuff would die before the guns actually did much damage. This is a fantastic idea as long as the time consideration is got right and doesn't tie up the dock.... give some of the other buildings a purpose at high lv!!! It also makes sense lore-wise as your more experienced crews get transferred to the better posts.... pretty sure that's how navys work in real life isn't it?

    As a concept though I'm sold!

    Ok I am back, clears throat a·hem a·hem. I also analysed all the countermeasure bps in the game and came to my expert conclusion that if a player has two flak turrets and two coxial turrets and a counter measure Harlock triton their base will be safe from this new **** hull and weapon. The reason I say this is because you need 60 salvos to hit to create the 2nd shockwave so all them counter measures will shoot down so many of these ice missles from this new **** weapon that only 2 salvos will it the target. With only two salvos hitting the target I conclude no shockwave will be present thus making this new hull and weapon USELESS!!!!
    I have never seen any launcher weapons shot at by any type of counter measure. 
    "expert conclusion" Jack..... really.... computer says No...... FAIL!!!

    The D98-U have duel shockwave tech does that mean it will not combine with existing cryo launchers to form shockwaves or not?

    wow jack 5 flags as abusive comments for asking you to explain.... you know after telling you you are in fact completely wrong. still no answer? can i flag this one for you?

    Correction make that 6 flags..... You cant seem to decide whether I am being abusive, off topic, a troll or off topic.

    For the record;

    I was discussing you incredibly wrong statement about the new ship and gun which is ON TOPIC

    Flachetts of Launchers cannot be shot down by anything (yet), the correct "expert conclusion" is that the best defense is really high evade. Which is what i was giving the "expert" a chance to explain

    At this point you are just kinda spamming the thread man. He is an obvious (and admitted) troll. He is getting what he wants by eliciting a response from you. 
    Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.

    It would not be good to transfer the vxp to new fleets that have not ranked or earned the ranks. New fleets start at zero,lol

    Hey folks. Thanks for the amazing feedback on the new ships and the VXP transfer.

    I'm going to merge this thread with the Official Pre-Event Discussion since that is what most of this discussion is about. 

    Keep it coming!

    Nice to see the NC cheap at 2M for anyone who can't grind their way to 12.5M for the Fusion, even that with the Antipode at 7.5M total is a beast of a combo for mid levels.

    Kix might have to ramp up the strongholds in the fm.    Fusion and new launcher will allow the fleet to go untouched through the 65 strongholds.
