  • Hello Everyone!


    As the title says, I'm new here.


    A very interesting mod. My compliments to everyone involved in its development.


    I'm currently playing SP and need some advice.


    I'm not sure whether to save up for an Osiris or settle for a robust VHF.


    The Osiris seems small enough to pilot through asteroid fields. Do caps have their own shields in this mod? What additional modules should I invest in? I understand that battleships don't need power upgrades.


    If I opt for getting a VHF instead, what would be a good one? What modules should I invest in for a VHF?


    For now I just want to explore and hunt aliens.

  • Hello,


    if you still play campaign, please stick to fighters ... storyline is made exclusively to these ship types.


    Capships have own shield. For theirs equip you need to buy turrets (for battleships and dreadnoughts), scanner and tractor, this is all. For VHFs equipment is good idea check CF wiki.

  • Hello! Welcome aboard! Sound advise in two above entries.

  • From what I've seen of some of the upper tier npcs, I'm assuming that using a gunboat or cruiser is pointless.
    I'm going to follow AZO9's advice and get a Redemption when I get the chance.
    As soon as the SP campaign is over, I'll save up for an Osiris.
    The BS turrets are quite pricey, considering that they don't pack much punch.

  • hi, the redemption is a good ship.. :thumbup: .. and when you start flying in MP you will have the advantage of having many char's... ;) which means you can have many ships at your disposal to use as you wish... happy flying and hope to see you in MP soon... :thumbsup:

    first the eagle is a great starter and then on to others but the redemption and the new ship quasar which is swift at killing aliens. but each pilot has his own preferences and so will you as you try them out. good hunting

  • i totally agree with kermit's comments... there are so many good ships to suit all styles of flying/fighting and purpose:- i.e. hunting, trading, smuggling and exploring.... its really a case of finding the one that suit you... and its so much fun trying them out :salutes
