GalYurr Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 The rear engines in those pictures are still angled slightly, unlike the pictures we saw in the Invictus advertising. So it's possibly an older model? I want that increased field of fire... Or maybe they adjust automatically somehow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gustav.Henrik Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Just prepare for a massive increase in javelin numbers. I mean to me it appears CIG marketing are pushing the javelin very hard so I could see them increasing the total number by a doubling in this sale alone. Currently around 2000 are in circulation.

Arcanus Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Just now, pyro nl said: wait this thingh is ingame ? It's "in game" in the sense that there is a NPC-crewed Javelin that will be flying around between Area 18 and Bajini Point (orbital) for Fleet Week. But it (probably) won't be "in game" in the sense of current owners being able to spawn one for a while yet (probably not until after SQ42 releases). pyro nl 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyro nl Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 ok cool, did not pay much attention to it all, seems i need to update and have a look thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcanus Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 FYI... there will be 1 Javelin-class destroyer, and possibly 2 (but at least 1) Idris-class frigates, as well as a squadron of F8 fighters painted bright red acting as an "aerial/aerospace demonstration team" putting on regular shows with fireworks at set times throughout "Fleet Week" pyro nl 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil Khan Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 There isn't a fully working Javelan ingame of asset(s) afaik. Only the shell which we know has been done for a while ( with tweaks here and there ) but no interior. The same goes with the idris shell but no interior. IF they sell the Javelan, they will be really small and very pricy. you will need a lot to use it effectively, otherwise the player pirates would love to jack it. If not for use then for presstige. also it's just a shell no guns, shields or various components. which alone cost more than most other ships (if not even the Idris) on ingame currency. they past few times it came on sale I narrowedly declined it heh 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, you are correct, the Javelin that will be on display is probably just a "shell", and it will (probably) be the same with the Idris. Why? Because there's no reason for it to be anything else. As far as we know, these ships aren't being made available for players to tour or to spawn, so why waste game resources including an interior that no one should be able to access? Doing so would only encourage people to try various game exploits to glitch into the interior and try to take over the ship (which several Evocati already proven, by trying to do just that), which is not the point of Fleet Week. We know that the Idris interior is either completely done or at least 95% done, because we have seen that interior both in CIG productions and in videos that were created after Teller data-mined the asset. The Javelin uses most of the same interior building set, so I expect that the Javelin is almost completely done as well. The only areas of the Javelin that differ significantly from the Idris (the bridge, the hangar bay, and the engine room... which is much bigger) have already been shown previously, so we know that those areas are (mostly) done as well. In addition, it does appear that many of the systems (weapons, engineering, navigation etc.) are fully functional, and it's even possible that the ship is being run (to a limited extent) by AI, rather than running on a scripted flight path (i.e. "rails"). Why? Because I've heard that the ship can avoid obstacles and/or player ships that might be in the way, whenever it departs or returns to the capital ship dock. Taken altogether, that represents significant progress in the realm of Capital Ship Development from what we have seen (or been shown) previously, and probably was necessary to respond to all of the disappointment created within the community (especially the people who owned large Capital Ships) when the Idris mission was removed from the 3.9 update. As for the price, well the Javelin was always pretty expensive, but I don't really think it will have gone up much compared to what it was last sold for.... which, once again, definitely IS expensive. However this time, unlike all of the other times it has been on sale, people will actually get a chance to see it in-game before they buy it. Yes, people will need a large group to support them in running a Javelin, but that's one of the main advantages to being a member of a large, well-organized group (Org/Fleet/Corp/etc.) within Star Citizen. Personally I think Capital ship game play will be a lot of fun. So, anyhow buy it if you want to, or not... either way, let people enjoy Fleet Week, personally, I think (or at least hope that) it's going to be a lot of fun.

Devil Khan Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 I wasn't trying to bring down, I mean I was just trying to avoid them from getting hyped and then crashing and burning everything. There are quite a few ships which we wouldn't know are there until Sq42 goes live(possibly beta). It is the upkeep that will cost you a mint just constantly making sure there is food ingame and fuel (at least 2 types). personally I'm not gonna buy one, it looks amazing. Just it needs a small fleet behind her at all times, not for protection, I mean for refuelling, restocking, rearming etc etc. I know a few ships that will be that way. One thing though, I wonder are they still going to go ahead with possible Mutiny (I mean not feeding or looking after well even NPCs), I'd like it if they implment it well.

Boildown Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 The real price tag isn't the ship, its "how badly do I want to see Star Citizen the game's development funded". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macgivre Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 It is supposed to be an escort carrier .... Regarding the size of the hangars I wonder how is used the rest of the room on this ship (the hanars seems to represent 20% of the ship) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil Khan Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Sorry? you don't mean the Javelan was meant to be an escort carrier? the give you a hint the Pegasus is nearly twice its lenght and carry several Squadrons. There were never any thought that Javelan was a Carrier. It was a DESTROYER. Kemalis and VoA 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
