Super excited to see the new weapons and subsequent ship designs in the next release... how about a couple of teaser screenshots to hold us over until the first RC is ready?
ja7833 I found this stuff on the Discord server:
Nothing on the gattling yet 🙁
Ultranova oh wow that looks neat af
Ultranova This mother effer is gonna rek!
Ultranova I... NEED... IT!
Ultranova The first screen, it looks like a ...
I guess it will put an end to missiles kites and give rise to rail gun kites.
Equalizer yep, the time of the missiles is running short
Ultranova but then theres the rockets
Dumb what rockets?
What about engine rooms?
fast small ship good dodging
Hmm, I might be onto something.

Dumb
I'd like to see unguided rockets added as a weapon option - perhaps the same launcher and factories as missiles but minus one part "the guidance section" which would allow for a faster rate of fire (and perhaps not require sensors if that aspect is ever implemented).
for rockets you can technically outrange anything and accurately deal damage(cuz u can't really evade a wall of rockets) but for rails if the projectile speed is slow enough the kiter can evade/outrange the projectile
Dumb I reckon with the high penetration of the Railgun, the blasts from the railgun will travel quickly to be more realistic. Highly penetrating blasts that move like snails makes no sense to me
Ultranova the "outrange" can still be possible tho,or else everyone will just build railgun carriers
Dumb Guess whats getting nerfed next 😛
Ultranova it will be nerfed before it is released,so its not counted as a "nerf"
Ultranova or it will just reduce the damage per shot so the shell still pierce but not explodes all the way through
This is turning into an Ideas and suggestions post.
railguns are going to be $$$$
Some ships will be worth BILLIONS!!
