Crossfire 1.9 status

Quote from Michael

Yes, I'm already busy on the server now announcing and answering questions

Though, Ragnarok gunboats have to be sold as well I guess... lol

Players asked me about gunboats, for FL it is considerated a capital ship as well, so you have to answer "yes" as well.

Why should the Ragnarok have to be sold as well?
Its not a train class and no capital ship, is it?

I mean, cap's and trains use mooring fixture to dock.
the ragnarok uses the regular docking ring as well as the regular docks on stations (even its too big to fit properly)

@ OP

What ships exactly do you recommend to get rid of?
All ships which uses the mooring fixture?
Also the Ragnarok from GR's ?

What about battleship turrets and train cargo pods? Do we need to sell these also?

where is Hägar?

Sold all the Capital ships and letting other know on the server as well. Just building back up to be able to buy again once everything is finished. Looking forward to 1.9, not that this one isn't great as is.

Thanks OP for the update.
Thats great news.
Really really looking forward to 1.9
It might be worth posting this great news on moddb.com (just checked and there's no new update there yet and there's been lots of people asking about 1.9...... It's your news and decision if you want to release the info at this time to the outside community ?) as there seems to be a lot of interest there and it should bring new people to Swat.

Uh somehow i didn't take a look after my comment in this thread...all my stores are Battle ships and Destroyers, not to mention mounted turrets...there is no way to save our turrets due to big cargo space which they need.

Shall we sell all BS turrets?

I em extremely happy u finally decade to release 1.9 OP . This is the best thing u can do to your server . Lake u see the whole community is

Well Zee, nice to hear it

And Bond, your issue is solved from our in-game chat, good luck though

nearly everyone knows that OP does his Job very good, for free and for the good of the Server Zee - sometimes there are good reasons not to release a new version. Just play with us now and trust him when it goes to 2.0 somewhen. Next Time maybe you will be the one telling others to calm down and wait - looking forward to play with you.

andreas nice operating service, you just forgot that buying several Dromedaries to do the same is much chepaer if you will sell them later for new Cap Ships, sry mate.

@OP
would it be possible to get a date until we definatly have time to switch? In my case i am damn busy in RL and i realy need to plan an evening online for switching my cap chars. Are we save until Saturday evening?

A bunch of dromedaries, you'd need 2x810k for the junkie bribe else you can stay risking the load, as you need 2 of them for a cap ship and 3 for a Kusary DS or Rheiland Cruiser.

I'm actually glad I never finished remaking my cap ship fleet from 1.7 lol, I only had the necessary ones, and the losses are small.

Diferent PoV. how many dromedary can you buy with 5 mil?
and Btw michael there are other ways to be neutral without using bribes
and only the coalition turrets are worth to keep.
and yeah it takes some work for people that has many ships but all can be handle in 1-2 days

62820 for the Dromedary + 810k for the Junkers Bribe stores 275 Cargo = 5 Turrets
9952238 for the APC + 810 for the Junkers Bribe stores 450 Cargo = 9 Turrets

The Osiris has 10 Hardpoints for Turrets. You will need two Ships in both cases, so:

Dromedary (62820 + 810) x 2 - 55220 - = 1.690.420 costs

you get half of the ships Price back later when reselling for a new Train (31.410) and you can delete the other character and buy a Patriot LF for a draw back of 23810.

APC (9952238 + 810) x 2 - 9.944.638 + 5 Mil = 14.961.458

you get half of the ships Price back later when reselling for a new Train (4.976.119) and you can delete the other character and buy a Patriot LF for a draw back of 4.968.519.
Andreas fee will cost non allied Clans additional 8 Mil and FLs 2 Mil (meanvalue 5 Mil)

Means the APC part is 885 % more cost intensive than the Dromedary Part. In other words you pay nearly 9 times more credits for it.

edit:

and for the Kusari Destroyer:

The KD has 14 Hardpoints for Turrets. You will need two APC or three Dromedaries, so:

Dromedary (62820 + 810) x 3 - 79030 = 2.539.430 costs

you get half of the ships Price back later when reselling for a new Train (31.410) and you can delete the other two characters and buy a Patriot LF for a draw back of 47620.

APC stays the same as above.

Means the APC part is 589 % more cost intensive than the Dromedary Part. In other words you pay nearly 6 times more credits for it.

i shoulda come in here and read first woulda saved my turrets ah "Salavi" there's always the new ones can't wait

CoP done!
I can never be able to thank you enough!

Good to hear Bond

Daywalker as ideas

@OP
Well, I was hoping to solve and answer all the issues myself on the server by announcing the decisive/clear info you gave me which took out doubts(even if it was the same as on here), as is noticeable even with Bond on here.
Seems some people got scared there would be no big ships at all in 1.9... idea I eliminated for who was in-game.

Your did said clearly what to do, yet people tried to find ways to loose the less possible.

So it's all good as it is now, after your clear post.

Will y'all stop arguing about math? Here's the scoop.

2 droms = cheaper overall
1 APC = more efficient, concise, and easy

Daywalkers math has one error. There are only 13 turrets on the KD.
