Marsten Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 It can certainly happen if we head to Oberon's Uriel: https://robertsspaceindustries.com/comm-link/transmission/13088-System-Unlock-Oberon The historical centerpiece of the system is Oberon V, Uriel. (...) In five years, a swarm of 70-year cyclical insects will devour all organic matter above sea level. Attempts at extermination in advance of the deadline have thus far been unsuccessful. As the saying goes, the most valuable thing someone can ship in the Gonn system is Urielians away from it.

Naros Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 One of my favorite movies - but I hope we would be way smarter and better equipped then these guys, they use zerg tactics against zerg... and the zerg are just better at it...

Wu Jen Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 With no planetary exploration in at launch we have ample time to plan. I've always been more of a 'Orbital Bombardment' type personally. Jon1812, l2k, Darius Marx and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can imagine a small exploration team being zerg rushed, more than an entire infantry company. GreyFox_420 and SushiDubya 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SushiDubya Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 I can imagine a small exploration team being zerg rushed, more than an entire infantry company. Speaking of the Zerg. I think it would be awesome if the game just suddenly zoomed out and we could switch to RTS mode. XD Star Citizen/Squadron 42 would be the ultimate game then.

Only thing would be you'd have to either be a commander of a large fleet, or a drone operator with thousands of those drones at your disposal.

Yep pretty much. I'd imagine large scale ground battle/campaigns would occur years after launch. If CIG decides to "stay in space" rather than grow upon the FPS mode (which would be a total waste IMHO), then we may not get to do this at all. =/ Who knows?

Jon1812 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Actually, we should see how many people are interested and see if we can get an in-game event going, like Operation Pitchfork, but on a smaller scale. If we were able to fight back the insects it would be pretty cool! That would be an awesome thing to have on our characters' resume! Plus, it wouldn't be able to be done again for another 70 years in-game. Here's a spreadsheet if you guys are interested: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1KRrZOZthM0eK66j_DZw8oyAvCEjKLYqvx6vXM_9SCwQ/edit?usp=sharing SnowOwl, tamag0chi, Furioso and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ViciDeum Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Hell, with the sheer size of this guild, I feel like if anyone is going to form a massive fleet its us! I'm sure in the upcoming PSU, we will have some INSANE battles, both on land, and in space. I can't wait! Been looking for an epic game with massive combat. Planetside 2 comes close, but the constant re spawns make your death seem less...important I guess GreyFox_420 and SnowOwl 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
