What's New - Update 4.0 Video - Watch and Listen!

Well ... I'm happy

 

any ETA on when the update will be rolling out ? Thanks in advance

 

@HAPPY SITHSHA is always happy.
And on seeing this update news,he becomes too too happy

Spoiler

Although he is the owner of Happy Oil lol

Just kidding. Don't be serious.Always be happy

 

This kind of sucks lol. I spent tons of pearls completing 25 retrainings recently and scrapped everything that conflicted with my main loadouts including a legendary EC and quite a few level 20-30 epics

 

"Around the corner" I'm really hoping it's tomorrow but if not itll probably release Friday.

 

Lets hope they're not waiting for league reset

 

Well that sucks?!!!
Just found something out after rewatching the video frame by frame
Seems like the interceptor is gonna be a premium ship
Check out the vip icon indicator on the left upper hand side sticking to the ship from the video
Guess that's a no go for f2p players like myself, if that's the case

 

I think that means ‘new’, because that’s not a VIP icon.

 

I wouldn’t mind getting a Defender+Fixer hybrid, defender with 1 less blue slot by adding 1 green slot.

Please make defenders stronger too, they’re a fat sad ship.

 

That's true, I thought previous updates came on Thursdays or Fridays just before the weekend event but I might be mistaken.

 

Dear god no lol, a Defender with Duct tape would be a nightmare. They are already hard to sink with a couple bandages.

 

You think?
Hope that's the case
If not
Lol

 

With the new training system I'm curious about the non item specific trainings like ship hp/speed, area damage, point damage weapons, all weapon damage, care package rewards, etc. Will these buffs just disappear or be added to the higher levels of the training trees?

 

how number trining weapon in one time

 

I certainly think this is going to have it's benefits but I can't see the big improvement for the fixer so far other than a bit of extra HP. The most used items' talents (bolt and pulse) don't currently clash.

Hopefully healing will get a boost with a chunk of HP as damage will go through the roof now there's no conflicts for talents.

Also, curses to the new fixer killer.. A shooter with a Nitro up its rear is worrying.

 

My only concern with the update is will everyone be reset to the same level or will the veterans who have worked they way up to lvl 50 and completed all the training and have been playing a year and a half be a higher level than say a lvl 40 has been playing 6 months?

 

1st impressions for me are nice functional updates, however losing some of the special things that made this game unique.

Pro: Love the ability to train all available weapons, NO more conflicts in crew training.
Con: Removing the CREW members from the game is a mistake, functionally it won't matter, but each of those Crew members made the game unique and gave us all a sense of family, especially when we relate our own play style to our favorite crew member. It's like going to Disney World and not seeing Mickey, Minnie and Goofy, sure ALL the rides are the same when you visit, but the characters make the place special. They could have kept the crew members and created separate weapon trees under each crew member.

Pro: Using a 1 to 50 system for upgrading ships.
Con: Removing the MK 1 through MK7 ship designs. The ship designs were classic and added something special to the game. They should have instead kept separate looking ships Mk1 = level 1-8, Mk2 = level 9-17, MK3 = level 18-25 , Mk4 = Level 26-33, Mk5 = Level 34 thru 42, Mk6 = level 43 thru 49, Mk7 = Level 50

 

In vid you can see fire dmg training on EC...from this I assume fire dmg, area dmg and such trainings that went across weapons will now be trained against that weapon only?
