There are three black boxes in the systems controlled by the Dom'Kavash. They are on the wrecks of Rhineland scouts. After finding those boxes you will have to wait until the release of CF 1.8 continues the storyline.

They don't. After awhile they run out. From that point on they can't repair their hulls and the shield regenerates in the same way as it would for a player using the same type of shield.

The meeting ended approximately twenty minutes ago. I would like to thank everyone who was able to make it!

I fell asleep and my connection was severed, but I am back now. O.o

No reason folks couldn't do both if they would stop spending hundreds of billions of $ to prepare to obliterate human life on our own planet. Periods of high funding for space programmes in the past have tended to be linked to state interest in military applications... such as for ICBMs or spy satellites. If it were really about discovery, progress, or even glory the funding would not have been gutted in the 1970s. If plans had gone ahead, I venture there would have been boots on Mars two decades ago. Nevertheless, happy New Year everyone! Welcome to 2010!

It is worth noting that the targeting against Corsair Titans is a bit... off. If you shoot from directly behind the ship, for instance, your shots are liable to miss or inflict damage to expendable ship parts rather than its hull. I have found that the most effective counter is to use subtargeting. Lock onto the Titan's shield generator or nose-mounted weapons to get a more accurate fix on the target.

Let's turn that down a couple of notches, shall we? Everyone has been waiting a long time, and I certainly am not taking anything for granted (the mod's potential release included). I may be mistaken, but for now this is simply an update on what is going on. When/if the time is right the mod will be made available. Until then let us remain cautiously optimistic and be grateful for the work being done rather than rushing to more self-centered thoughts.

There is so much that I like here that it would be foolish to laud any handful of particular examples; this is fantastic to read! Congratulations to both OP and rest of the team on the imminent completion of this project!

+1

I'll be there. We're going to need at least a few sober people in that channel. xD

It is good to hear from you, CA. I hope that you are able to emerge from these hard times with high spirits. You have always been an indispensable part of the community; it would never be the same without you. Best of wishes m8, and good luck on your new project.

Spiky had no scheduled event for the 25th, m8. Try again tomorrow for the Smuggler Event.

We're in the top 40 right now as far as I can tell. Turn out those votes!

Merry Christmas everyone!

You shouldn't be interested in the wreck loot so much as what one of the space stations sells.

If there is a wipe I will also limit my activity to one character. I do not believe that multiple chars inherently lead to abuse of in-game features and RP, and that there are several disadvantages to having only one character on a server with somewhat low activity (not to mention you can still F1 to log out from one char), but Saxon still makes a good point.

Yeah, people are a little crazy.
