Oh so looking forward to this.
thanks.

 

[Andro]

I want whatever that dropship module with the harnesses is for my ship, not holding out hope though.

 

[PhanttoM]

Looking forward to it, but I've kinda been spoilt by the combined arms first person shooters that I've played — 12vs12 sounds like it's on the lower end to me, but hopefully it will not feel like it if the map area is small.

 

[Bigmaec]

Oh boy, this will be fun.
Especially the Dropship part.

Dropship

 

[Bottom Hat]

It still makes me think of the flea treatment you put on pets....

Thanks for this though StuBot @StuartGT

 

[Factabulous]

So the whole of the news is ...Phase 2 soon? okaaaay...

 

[xzanfr]

Thanks for the update StuartGT, much appreciated!

This sounds like all the things I dislike in a game so roll on phase 3.

Good luck to all those who like this sort of thing - enjoy & happy testing

Is the drop ship some kind of New Shuttle? Or just the federal dropship, or any ship...?

So - Phase 2 is - testing if Megaship Looting is fixed

You need to use the plasma arc to cut the panels off.

During the stream, they said they are aiming for next Wedenesday.

Makes sense - Monday is a UK holiday, Tuesday to recover from it

The NPC versions seem to be using Vultures:

Might be a module we can fit? Never know.

The SRV bay has been prettied up. Guess they’re expecting modules like that to be inspected all the more. Could see a drop ship module going in the same slot maybe?

Well, you'd think the Federal DROPSHIP would have this.

Definitely this. I want one.

6-12 players per dropship would be dope.

On foot CQC!

Would be great, but I'm afraid that with frontline we'll have to suffer 5-10minutes taxi travel just to get to the place where there is actually some game to play...
