VoA Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 We just had a Blood Moon Unit meeting where we Theory crafted the Argo SRV versus the Vulture and the Prospector and how useful the SRV will be in game ....and just as I mentioned in the meeting I talked myself into a CCU changing my Vulture into an Argo SRV because I do think it will be more profitable have more uses and I already have a Reclaimer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a Vulture and a Reclaimer so.. it does sort of make sense to CCU my vulture to a Argo SRV. However, we have no idea how far away tractorbeam tech is. At least salvage is on the roadmap (though since they delayed that like 4 times, it doesn't mean much). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just do what I do ------ keep your Vulture ..... and keep the CCU to the SRV in your hanger without applying it........ use the Vulture for awhile ...... then when the SRV is playable - apply the CCU Fizzlefuse 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Painmiester Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Looks like a good addition for the carrier. Everyone's a kraken to habe a go at it .Looks like a good addition for the carrier. VoA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danakar Endeel Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Well, still going to wait for the Q&A but I got me a little $10 Tracker-to-SRV CCU just to have the option available. VoA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowZone Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Something occurred to me while watching the latest RTV on the SRV concerning the timing of the release of the SRV concept. A lot of comment was made about using the SRV to re-orientate ships that have landed upside down on planets, already a problem in the current iteration of the PU, I was hoping that it would not be such an issue with the upcoming changes to the flight model. It may be just pure speculation but maybe the number of larger/non-aerodynamic ships unable to maintain correct orientation near the planet surface or leave the atmosphere under their own power will be a such problem in 3.5 that it necessitates the need for the SRV. I was hoping that they could address this issue with the use of temporary jet boosters/fuel, but that may well be harder to implement than creating a new ship with strong enough tractor beams. Either way, I'm still looking forward to setting up a Spaceside Assistance Service! Fizzlefuse and VoA 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be a more versatile ship to use then the Vulture and it just makes more sense for me with industrial salvage in mind, 27 minutes ago, LowZone said: It may be just pure speculation but maybe the number of larger/non-aerodynamic ships unable to maintain correct orientation near the planet surface or leave the atmosphere under their own power will be a such problem in 3.5 that it necessitates the need for the SRV. Maybe... but I think we'll always have people messing around, or just being terrible pilots. Also, they'll add misfires to various systems and item degradation, so I expect we'll see more crashed/disabled ships in the future that need... erm... "helping".

Fizzlefuse Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Some of those questions were just asinine... and of course the "how can I game the system and make my non-gunboat into a gunboat" questions were there *rolls eyes*...but i did like that they adressed the ship security concerns. We'll have to remember to keep the power running when landed outside of safe havens and keep your shields up at all times. What I would have loved to hear is how multiple SRVs would work together. Would they need to be grouped in order to drag the same target? If you're tractoring something, can another SRV just lock on to your target and now you're in a tug-of-war?
