How much money to build my ship ?

[Exospectron]

From a lead modeler standpoint - we've since 4.85 stopped doing unique ships for individuals or individual factions. There are 5 unique ships that were grandfathered in (Satsume, Tundra, Persephone -which is no longer going to be so unique-, Necrosis and Barge), and two more which have been removed from the game but kept for backwards compatibility (Battlestar and that Star Destroyer).
We've had a few rejections (Hogosha playerfaction specific cruiser, AI battleship come to mind). Unless Cannon overturns this, I don't forsee any exceptions being made for throwing money at it - ingame or otherwise. I certainly won't back this kind of favoritism.

If it is not a ship the average player -can- attain with a bit of work, it has no place in this mod, that's my thought on it. This is a volunteer project, everyone should have equal opportunity to the same pewsticks. If we allow this, we'll end up on the sliding pay-to-win slope. Something I loathe (and would leave this mod over).

If you have a nice idea for a general-use ship that isn't overpowered, and can find someone to model it, we'll consider it for inclusion. Best run the concept by the devs though so you aren't wasting your time. A Freelancer cruiser or battleship for instance... isn't happening.

So U want to tell me all ships are balanced in this game ?

I can tell U right now that they are not !

Why ?

Because in order to be they need to have same HP, shields weapons maneuverability and etc... all ships need to be same by the stats to be perfectly balanced and player skill will determine winner.

That is true balance.

Every time U take Outcast Dreadnought over Legate U are paying to win because it has more HP, more turrets and what not more than Legate.

Same is with all other ships, if some has more guns than other, this is not balanced, if one has more HP than other it is not balance and so on...

And I am asking for some ship like I am asking for your liver, man this is a game and possibility is limited only by engine and dev will and imagination.

And here I as some dumb idiot trying to give some money to U to help in Ur running of this game and server by making U work for money... excuse me for being rude...

AS I was stating in earlier post, I do not seek any superior ship, nor any advantage over any other player, as this is discussed by devs if I can have that may guns, what shields, and who knows what... I only ask for unique ship.

If U want make it useable to others as well if it pasts the tests of devs...

Who knows maybe people would like the design, and the more ships to pick from the better.

Opinions ?

Thanks.
