How long did you massage the CPU to get that turbo measurement?

No new ships yet. Which should have been expected since that fancy new Python which probably isn’t going to be very fancy or get my interest was only announced as a work in progress at the end of January.

But people are having “fun” blasting the Titans which can’t end up going wrong in any kind of way, and it’s definitely not a shitty thing to go and kill them when we’re the goddamned idiots who attracted them in the first place.

I really hope the 30GB update provides more than only replacing "Slow down" with "Gravity well"... on the other hand, I have no idea how complex these alterations are.

Hi! Has anyone had problems with the system map after the update? I have in one of the systems after opening the local map the game froze. Only a reboot helped. Tried several times. As soon as I left this system map again began to work as usual.

So that new python mk2 ... with 6 hardpoints (4L + 2M) supposedly having design intention to rival FDL and Mamba in combat (we already know that it will have 6 utility slots but it will need at least max speed buffed to Krait mk2 levels) ... From the work in progress footage it looked fast enough to me.

And about its release:
I understand that Python mk2 availability is linked to narrative event which will come from the stuff in Update 18. Yesterday's stream hints that new function is related to things delivered with U18. Since the U18 content is mainly focused on Maelstroms my best guess is that either we will be able to bring the fights to Thargoids or Maelstrom will become extremely dangerous for current ships, hance we will need those new ships for that. This guess is also enforced by the fact that the ship have potential to be also good for AX (+2 utility slots for more heat sinks, +1 hardpoint for thermal vent laser, but let's see max speed? first)

Taranis is getting absolutely smashed right now so if it has anything to do with the Titans, we might find out soon.

A ship with four large hardpoints and two mediums could mount one or two medium torpedo pylons and four large AX weapons - providing use of a weapon stabilizer(the only useful thing Azimuth did throughout the war) while keeping a vent beam too. Or do the Guardian torpedoes not count toward the experimental weapon limit? I haven’t looked at them in the game yet, but their description from a screenshot makes no mention thereof. (And one launcher would probably be enough.)

And yeah, the speed also matters, but if it can’t even do around 500 with a boost(on engineered thrusters) it’d be pretty disappointing.
