Really i have seen orb talk about Flickers alot for example::
Quote:
ol, Hive will never be pilotable. Flying a wasp is pretty cool, but that wont be allowed either.
i will put the new ships in for you to shoot at and so i can tweak them over the uni.
But none of the T21 gear/bps etc will be going in until C2.
Hence the Wattage, Flicker, delquad ais will not be player driven next uni but will be ai driven.
Quote:
I removed the Wattage and Flicker at the last moment as I wasnt satisfied. Sorry i should have made some notification.
They will both be in for next uni along with 2 new members of the Hive family (1 being obtainable).
Quote:
Keep an eye on this thread for new updates over the next few weeks. But something new is coming to the game ! The Flicker definately isnt in yet as i wasnt happy with it. I took the wattage out at last minute as well.
Quote:
Doesnt FC have enough for it atm without a T18 slave ship with uber inbuilt electric ?
But if thats what everyone would prefer I am quite happy to do as requested.
So either t19 mf ship with inbuilt electric or a t18 mf slave ship with inbuilt electric.
(The flicker will be sniper i think)
Quote:
So you dont think im ignoring you. Ive read your comments and am currently thinking about it.
I think the wattage will stay a t19 player buildable ship. But reduce the flicker to a lower lvl.
Quote:
The Ampage is a tech 4 ship. The Voltage is a tech 9 ship. Hence i have made the Flicker a tech 14 ship and the Wattage a tech 19 ship. Do we really want such good graphics wasted on lower tech ships that will probably be shot at/used/wowed at for approximately ...
Quote:
Wattage will be a lvl 1k ish ai.
Flicker will be about 500 ish
Both along with some other new content should be out with the next patch.
Quote:
I have built the main part of the Wattage ship.
The wattage is a tech 19 ship.
It may be player buildable and aimed at MF!
There is also a new uber cool wattage laser weapon which is unlike any current laser in game.
Bunch of other wattage stuff as well, but you can find that out later!
Quote:
will look at the other ships in this family (e.g Voltage etc), check thier levels and work out where there are gaps.
If we already have an ai in this family that is level 20 then there is no point putting another one.
Either way at least one of them is going to do something unique and nasty.
Quote:
I will finish off the Flicker and Wattage ai.
Im thinking of something real nasty and evil with one of them though. So be warned. Dont shoot them!
