Oh, did I mention the Doomsday Device? Hehe!  




Did I miss something? Is that going to be a fix so its harder to kill?

This new patch sounds wonderful. Thanks again to Firesoul for posting this and all the other playtesters for working so hard on this for us.

BUMP

This should really be at the TOP of this forum.

Is it too late to sign a non-disclosure agreement and be a playtester?

Qapla!

You'd have to send a note to someone in the company for that.

They did just add a couple of well known people from the community though so it may be possible.

A lot more players play EAW. OP is superior in design and has more material, weapons, etc.

Most EAW players didn't think there was enough of a difference between EAW and OP to wararnt spending.  



I picked OP. I support OP. I work a lot for OP. I did a lot of stuff for OP. I say: OP.  




FireSoul, thanks a lot for keeping us informed.

I think many EAW players actually have acquired OP and just did not play there as much because of the issues related with the map.
Form what we gather here, this patch may actually establish OP as the platform of choice and combine large portions of the two player list into OP.

I am looking forward to the patch.
Thanks

In the EAW house an age old phrase is spoken through gritted teeth, "Thank you Sir, may I have another?"

Meanwhile off in the distance you can hear the faint cry of "Toga, toga, toga".

And Dean Wormer is putting OP house on double secret probation.

Man, there's no  "may" about it.  OP is superior now.  What has already clearly been fixed in the current build of the beta patch cements that beyond any stretch of the imagination.

Since there IS going to be another patch, I'd like to report two bugs, just in case they haven't been addressed.

BUG 1: I cannot target a Mauler weapon with boarding parties. This is ridiculous as I can target any other weapon on a ship with boarders plus the transporters, tractor beams, sensors, and shuttle bays.

BUG 2: When playing as Mirak, upon getting any new ship with MIRV launchers, I must complete a mission before I can get my full missile loadout and load ammo for the MIRV launchers.

(BTW, calling them MIRV is rather a misnomer, MIRV = Multiple Independent Reentry Vehicles, usually used in ICBMs. These really are just cluster missiles. Even though you can fire them at a planet, it's not their intended purpose.)

Hope that helps with developing the new patch.

1. Not as ridiculous as you think. In SFC terminology, a mauler system is indestructable. Therefore cannot be targeted by borading party, nor be destroyed. (the in patch before the current one, Mauler could. But that was a bug.)
The rationale you ask? A Mauler is not a system, it's the ship. The mauler generators are integrated with the ship so tightly that it cannot be distinguished from the ship's frames. The only way to destroy a mauler is to destroy the ship. (you can however, disable mauler by destroying engines. Since mauler damage is proportional to battery reserve. No engine, no battery recharge, no damage.)

2. Definitely Mirv is broken... Hopefully it'll be fixed. (and re: misnomer, you should know better than bringing modern sciences into Star Trek... :P)

Nod to 3Dot.

A Mauler is not a system of a starship, but a weapons system with a starship built around it.
