Except all those Osiris they for some reason chose to share with the sairs right?

Failed decision of devs looooong time ago before our current team based on OORP decision that OC had Zeppelin (old OC dread) and Corsairs had nothing.

So what? You want a retcon?


RE: Discovery 4.87 Tech Compatibility Chart Draft - Omicron - 08-19-2013

It would be great.

Actually i think that would be great, too!- and if we could somehow find out that there is an extreme material shortage that forces the Legates to be scrapped andrevamped into supercool pirate-boats ( aka a real piracy cruiser, mabye not a "war-cruiser") then i would call it a happy day Big Grin

^Ye that. Remove all BS's from Unlawful factions and remove Zoner caps, ganks>caps so the we-need-caps-cuz-balance argument is moot anyways*. Cap battles would still be present in House vs. House conflicts, and those battles are more fleet-oriented and thus fun PvP-wise anyways so no vital gameplay lost.

*Although bases makes that argument relevant again, but hopefully bases will get an update at some point too).

No one knows why Hessians still have a BS..............


RE: Discovery 4.87 Tech Compatibility Chart Draft - Hell Hunter - 08-19-2013

Yeah what's the point of having fun, I mean considering the Hispanic factions (outcasts, corsairs) are still a house, why wouldn't they have caps for their pirate war and defense of their home space? Hessians are weird for sure but I still think they should keep their BS, they're the special kind of local-house pirates, I guess afterall they are revolutionaries

You could also ask "Why would they?" A lot of these things are quite arbitrary in Disco, really, even though we like to imagine otherwise.

Certainly I'm not against fun; but it would bring fleet battles to more appropriate settings like Gallia-Bretland or Liberty-Rheinland rather than the Tau's and such. I mean the gameplay would still be in the mod, just in limited zones so to speak.

Maybe that would be better for dedicated snub lovers as well as dedicated cap lovers too?

We'd see less caps, dedicated snub lovers would forfeit the right to be butthurt if they get killed by dual bs missiles in one of the cap heavy Zones, and cap pilots would have the chance to have fun and kill stuff without having to deal with buckets of tears afterwards. Win win win.

Well seems the sairs are getting their own version of the osiris, once it passes testing:

If you mean the "Sair-ified" Ossie model by Curios, it was submitted way past the deadline for initial release, so it'll be reviewed for one of the early updates and implemented with the rest of "late" ships if it manages to pass the quality check and whatnot.


So a retcon isnt happening. I dont like the decision to give sairs Ossies in the first place, but retcons are worse.

Also you guys are getting offtopic, but I think its fine for factions to have caps, dont see why you think itd help to take em away? Whiners still gonna whine. And caps are much more fun to fight than;
