THARGOID ATTACK IN 32 c PISCIUM

I wholeheartedly agree! Why aren't the 'goids running around like normal NPCs? Because n00bs like me would be hopelessly outclassed in every encounter and the game would become punishing!

But FDev don't design the game around players, that's what we've been told over the years - that it'sa cutthroat galaxy and we're jus ta part of it - now the game is being designed especially for players? Which one is it?

So, the pattern is clear. They attack the server first .... and while it's down, they go for the station(s). Sneaky [alien]

LOL +repped :)

Ah, my bad. I wish this was announced somewhere... So I need to help with evacuation I guess.

It would be much more exciting to know there's a limited time to get the people out and there's a limited amount of people.

Right now, the RP would be "we need help before all the people burn to death and get them out"

"How do we know when we've got them all out"

"Oh just imagine it"


If we had an actual number of survivors then it would be a thing to save them all. As time runs out your taking more risks to evacuate everyone then all of a sudden a bbunch of Thargoid lovin defenders show up and start attacking passenger ships - the defence force patrolling that station kick in after burners and dive it but the rescue effort has to go on! People are still burning alive or suffocating - they still need your help!
 
Noble of you, to help finish off the bubble. :)

Lol, of course I meant on our side ;)

Cant you just buy some anti thargoid weapons?
Yep, AX weapons you can anyway.

Obviously with engineered shields, armour, weapons etc you'll last longer, but without you can still join in.

Btw, I found in my lightly armoured mk3 Cobra I could take on 2 scouts (NHSS threat 3, or get 1 or 2 scouts to chase you away from the rest), it's got military armour (possibly engineered lightened, I can't remember), 2 medium beams (not engineered, but need to be for lower energy use!), pwr dist is engineered for engine focused (so weap capacity reduced), & shlds are standard A grd (whatever the max size a Cobra can take).
The main thing is to make sure you hit boost & dodge, the moment you hear 'incoming missile', those caustic missiles will eat a away the flimsy Cobra haul pretty quickly! If you do get hit by 1, you need to over heat your ship to just over 150% to burn it off! (If you don't have decontamination limpets to hand).
In my next fights with the goids I'll be bringing my heavily armoured & engineered Python to take 'em out! :D

Alert.... Alert...

Calling all Pilot Federation commanders:

Thargoid vessels are flooding in to 32 c Piscium, an Antal system well within the inhabited bubble. It would appear that Eagle Eye was correct.

The system has a population of 19,643,033 who's lives now depend on the response of Pilot Federation cmdrs.

Pranav Antal has already activated as many Enforcers as are available, but our limited numbers may not be enough to fend off this attack. Other attacks on inhabited stations have been averted by engaging the scout ships immediately, and we are hoping that a solid response from commanders will achieve this aim.

I am pleased to report that Enforcers fought side by side with Imperial and Federation commanders last tonight, as well as with non power aligned pilots, and to some notable effect. This is no time for petty politics - this is a time to defend the millions of souls living in this system.

Pranav Antal also calls upon pilots unwilling or unable to attack Thargoid ships, to proceed to the system in order to protect those engaging the aliens. Certain commanders have been sighted attacking ships already suffering corrosive damage, alleging defence of the Thargoids. Were this truly the case, they would be engaging pilots before they attack the Aliens, not after when badly damaged and vulnerable.

On behalf of Utopia, we thank you for your support.

Fly Safe Cmdrs o7

...Message ends.

*yawn*

they can have Sol and whatever they want. I don´t feel like its important to anyone.

Show me the money, otherwise...burn baby burn. Sorry but humans pay better to wipe out other humans and wont cough up to save their own species? Yep, that makes perfect sense. Bubble can burn fer all I care...but redemption is at hand because caring comes with a price tag...
 
AEGIS: Where were you????


This is ridiculous. They really need to give us more than 24 hours notice if we're supposed to intervene!

We also need gimballed AX weapons (the god weapons from the guardians can remain fixed only for that "Git Gud" motivation) and in more sizes (C1s and C4s!).

And don't even get me started about the personal grind you have to do to unlock corrosion resistant cargo racks and then they only come is size 4! (not 2 and 3, just 4!)
 
Even GalMap provides me no reason to worry about thargoids whatsoever:

Shouldv'e gone in and run greenpeace-type non-violent interference on the dirty war-mongering apes bent on squishing bugs.
Would've been funny, esp with the C&P effects in play.

You can actually get a 2 just not at the same place as the 4.
 
<whispers> You can't actually fit it all in your ship at once, there is no reason to try and eat the whole steak in one bite beyond looking silly for our amusement.

While you're technically correct, I'm pretty confident that the amount of grind I need to endure to outfit my one ship from stem to stern is still going to take anywhere from 1 year--to never if I just randomly acquire things like you've so often suggested;)
