  • Server acting strange

    i gave up again everything acting eratic with missle attacks and no ships around. ships jumpimg around the chat windows empty or messages passing through with jet engines in them. everything was great two days ago with the odd crash but now. blowed if i know. :S:S:S:S

  • Help needed: Ship's name

    i don,t recognize the system or the ship pilot.i don,t think it,s got anything to do with crossfire at all ( but i could be wrong the wise one will let us know the answer) ?(:/

  • Troubles with Battleships

    m8 i fully realize it,s complex and enjoying all the practice i,m getting :) but give me a break thats 7 times at different distances from j/g in x3043 to alaska. going to enjoy more practice too. i gave the tradelanes the flick and travel in cruise everywhere . too time wasteing. umm dreadnought too by the way m8 (celestis). all aspects of the bs/dn i don,t have any problem with just as i said j/g ,tradelanes. so i use jumpholes instead. oh well

  • Troubles with Battleships

    well thats been an interesting session. a couple of things, the lining up of tradelanes, jumpgates is shocking especially if your hit by virtually anything throws all out of wack and everything just freezes. so you cancel then slowly try again. i fully realize they are big and awkward and dead straight to preform these actions. 7 attempts to jump from x-alaska is bloody ridiculus and all from dead in front. also while tractoring in individual items your ship is is just going willy nilly with your course set and and in movement. if i put cursor on item in scanner box bottom left and click an item i want to tractor the ship is changing course. the cursor is not anywhere to warrant a course change. blowed if i know it,s enjoyable and fun

  • Server acting strange

    ?( i have just suspended play again, the server is acting strange, everything is going like delayed action eratic. again was ok today for me with one crash. i signed off at server reset and lately things go haywire after that. yesterday i docked my b/s all ok signed off. signed back on and b/s in different place and sessions cargo of big ships gone. same today with haidar signed on and it,s in space and not in dock where i left it, and under attack. one question is there a kill ratio for pods being dropped. i have started counting kills again in suspicion the server is not adding kills to the total all the time. and strongly feel it is going on at the moment :/:/:/:/:/

  • Battleships turrets???

    Quote from Martind Forlon

    ... there is not yet any public info about these turrets, bcs no one yet updated old entries ;) . One from reasons "why not" is, that I waited if someone else will give here turrets stats as part of "exploration" and search for new stuff coming with CF 2.0. Get them is quite easy, all what player need to do is visit houses capital planets (Planet Manhattan, Planet New Berlin, Planet New Tokyo, Planet New London) plus Crossfire Dock 1 (or 2), Earth and Planet Murmansk and check out there actual turrets stats :):P


    well thought that was a challenge to explore so i did with massively long distance but came to the conclusion waste of time. found nothing new the incentive, but the turrents at earth are actually on b/deliverance, understanding other pilots have different views with respect. the best turrent is at x dock 1

  • Questions about Battleships

    i have been avoiding b/s as big and boring, but decided to have another go with them and slowly enjoying there use. the action is slower but exciting. 2 things though come to mind. 1st why sell b/s where there is no way to arm them for fighting or defend itself. 2nd the mass weight of a b/s being thrown of course by a fighter running in to it or any other ship except the bigger which you would expect to do damage in a collision. it is mighty frustrating going to jump in a tradelane,hole or gate and a ship knocks you of course the mess to get acurrately straight again for a second go.ohh another lesson i got is don,t take them through asteroid belts they go nuts :)

  • Where is Kusari Battleship - Navitas?

    well the b/s navitas is one mean looking ship but thats all. buyer beware, it is hopeless at docking with tradelanes to the point of avoiding them and flying on cruise everywhere. it is clumsy and i would say too big for the screen and needs resize down compared to the rest of the b/s, the afterburner needs looking at.
