Post Latest progress on Olympus
I've finalized all the BP's and loot tables for Ares. Also created "+" versions of all four Olympian tech 21 ships for those who like to spend money. Each one is about 150b to build. Also new to the drop lists are some very powerful hull type locked unstable OL's and diffusers and a tier 3 LF only engine which is pretty bad ass.

Still left to do are finalizing the Zeus BP's and drop tables and remove the first galaxy from the instance since it will be a custom galaxy and not instanced and add it to the custom galaxy list, and that's about it.

By unstable, do you mean with a very large failure-rate? It's just that the wording reminds me of the old days where OL's blew up weapons.

So hopefully it'll stay unstable for 10 weeks or so?

The new one probably adds 5% damage or something, on top of being broken.

Jeff, I do hope you are including content for EVERY CLASS in olympus, as the current UZ failed to do so. FC gets almost nothing from it. Perhaps some FC only fighters that are T21 and fighter bays drop from olympus?

The fighters should be insanely powerful, to acquit to T21.

You noobface, the current UZ was made before cap ships existed. :P

So, 150bil for tech 21"+" ships. Teach 20"+" ships ~20bil. (assuming your going by market cost, which if your not it will be more than this)


1.125 Trillion for Tech 22"+" ships
8.4375 Trillion for Tech 23"+" ships
63.281 Trillion for tech 24"+" ships...


I am guessing you think because there is currently a large amount of money in game its okay to do this. But what your missing or not thinking about is the fact that there is a large influx of money in the game because it took so long to get tech 21 out.

I don't think most of it is direct credits, Trevor. Remember, market price of a Lion commod is 100b. The Lion ain't much more than a Rhino if the commod isn't included.

Post Re: Latest progress on Olympus
the pax levitas has a 100b credit cost tag on it




so what Jeff is saying is that no one of average playtime/uberness will be able to have t21 gear forever.

yay for pointless new content!

You sure, Kath? Have you seen the BP? Have you got proof of 100b? Could it all be a joke on Jeff_L's part?

Hah, I found it! Hush Trevor. The Pax Levitas is not a Tier 1, 2, or even 3 T21 ship. It's closer to Tier Five.

1a) We've been economic modeling resources for these builds, and the costs throughout the T21 process - T1 has been made cheaper, whilst T3 got more expensive (roughly 60bil for their ships, which is roughly double that of UZ ships - although what you, the players, will do with market prices will change that. Could be that real time prices rise from the base costs, but that's naked capitalism for you - we're aware of the price of a lion commod on the open market, for instance.)

Your point is still not effecting what I have said.

I am comparing tech 20+ ships to tech 21+ ships. Nothing in between, not UZ not santa clauses left toe or even Jiraque's mom. I am talking about tech 20+ ships and tech 21+ ships.

That's the + version, btw. In case you missed that.

So it goes from 20 to 60, then from 60 to 180, then from 180 to 540b...but by then we'll have better ways of making money! ^.^
