ANNOUNCEMENT Gamescom Reveals - Fleet Carrier Details

[Red Anders]

Good man, use you key worker status to skip the line of panic buyers at the supermarket. The staff seem to really enjoy letting us cut in.

Its like a ghost town out here. I was at one of the busiest motorway services in the UK at lunchtime a few days ago massive food court surrounded on three sides by rows of eateries and one lonely customer in the middle drinking from his own flask.

For the moment we have decent amounts of food in the house; might not be what I'd choose to buy usually and there are some odd gaps in the stocks but those are luxuries we can't afford to be worrying about at the moment, so I'm perfectly happy to let people like NHS staff on shifts get themselves in ahead of the clownshoe brigade and make sure they aren't starving to death in case they have to treat me next month. Making sure NHS staff are well-fed and healthy is probably the best investment any of us can make in our future at the moment.

I'm working long days this week but after that 'll be able to arrange my hours more effectively to allow me to get to the shops early if needed anyway, which is a luxury a lot of key workers don't have. There's just so much happening at the moment it's going to take a week or so to find a new equilibrium I think.

I just watched this again, and it must be the onionhead talking, but I think I want one of these. Today, right now!

I suspect you might just be disappointed.

I still hold that Fleet Carriers will appear in shipyards everywhere at 0:00 UTC April 1st.
For 1 Billion Fish

Based on the last time I was in Sheffield, it looked like a fairly normal Tuesday.

North Americans: Sheffield is like Pittsburgh with more coal.

Home of Pulp, Thompson Twins, Heaven 17, Arctic Monkeys, Def Leppard, Cabaret Voltaire and ... THE LONG PIGS

RAF Finningley was one of our alternates. Never set down there. Now, it's "Robin Hood"....

Don't forget The Human League!

Something something fleet carriers.

1B only ?...
I think about 5B - 10B (for a end game goal 2020)
that would be a good way to spend stoker money for a long time

Fly Safe, stay in your home.

There are probably players still grinding since the announcement of the announcement, are quintillionaires by now, and still don't think they have enough.

Would be a laugh if they had to be aquired with a yet to be revealed new currency

ARX?

 

[Psyral]

I think it should be loads of cr + loads of engineering mats (raw + manufactured) ... I am only saying that because I just finished topping off all engineering mats to max for every one.

 

[Skip Rockbounder]

Perhaps Created at a Shipyard over time and with the materials YOU provide... 10,000t Iron, 1000t gold, 1200t Drive parts etc etc, and a heap of labour costs!
I don't think anyone should expect to search through their pockets for a couple of rare materials and a simple donation of a couple of billion.

 

[Yargulius]

Searching pockets...

Found: Lint
Found: Pocket knife (dull)
Found: Some kind of candy/dinner mint (most likely inedible)

Hmmm, looks like no carrier for me.

 

[Ignition]

Are we there yet? It was supposed to be ready for december 2019.
Is it going to be delayed a 3rd time?
I gues the new EPIC ERA will be a dec 2021?

They've just postponed the Olympics so I wouldn't expect the release schedule of some DLC for a five year old game to stay unchanged.

Hello... When? in few minutes? or???

Edit ; Ouups... sorry, english is not my mother tongue... But, I think the players are getting impatient ..

 

[Rat Catcher]

I'd love FDev to release Fleet Carriers now, with most of us in quarantine it would provide a welcome distraction and give us something new to talk about.
I'm OK for a while as I also have Half-Life: Alyx to keep me entertained, but levity aside, such a release would be a morale booster for both the Playerbase and Developers I should think.

First u push devs to roll update as fast as they can, second u complaining about poor quality of update and bugs. Stop it. Get some help.

They dont need to push updates however constant updates on progress and discussion over whats coming isn't much to ask for.
