Discovery 4.83 beta 5 is the last (or almost the last) beta before 4.83 final release. The beta is necessary to fix the last bugs and balance the new ships. Keep the bug reports flowing; infocard mistake reports also appreciated.
There are 3 new ships in this release - Arrow, a light interceptor by Vaporlinx (sold in California), Blood Dragon Gunboat by Vaporlinx (sold... guess where) and the Collector CSV II by Doom (sold in New London).
I remind that Tiger Shark MUST be sold and changed for another ship before or immediately after the beta. All Tiger Shark owners that will keep the old ship until tomorrow will lose a character with no refund.
- New ships:
Arrow by Vaporlinx
Collector (CSV II) by Doom
Dragon Gunboat by Vaporlinx
- Updated system:
Virginia (Liberty Navy system) by Dab
- Tiger Shark updated (larger model, improved hardpoints).
- New commodity: Spaceship Crew.
- Numerous balance enhancements, bug fixes.
- Many infocard text corrections and amendments.
Ships that will require equipment change after this release:
- Tiger Shark must be sold and re-bought!
- Albatross & Assault Battlecruiser: equipping battleship shields is no longer possible.
