ATTENTION! : TP Class
Ok i'll keep this simple
If i was to tell you that tp class ships are being seriously looked into and that
XL cargo was on its way out
Manta's would cost 400k
Cargo capacity was about to be lowered
what would you think.

Needs a `pointless spam, lock this thread` option.
Although seriously, the TP needs fixing because it has made the TS more or less obselete.

If you can`t dazzle them with dynamics, then baffle them with bullsh*t

I would say 'whatever' except for the price change... which would see the TP used never used again.
UNless somehow it was scripted that the existing ships cost more and the balance is deducted from your account in which case I'd go broke.
Fix the USELESS TS instead.

Of course, if I called you a fool I`d be warned by a moderator. If I`d put an option in a poll which referred to everyone as tossers I may have been banned yet its ok for you to do this kind of stuff.LV wrote:stop trying to cause trouble fool
this poll is serious
or is it
Why ?

For gods sake put your dummy back in SHEEESHHH
frantically trying to cause trouble is getting you nowhere, not because i have some secret influence with the mods but because your clutching at straws trying to cause trouble.
People are aware that your grinder over at *goners* has a shrine to me and that he's using his dupes as his pawns
continue this through the pm if its so much of an issue with you but take it from this thread if you please adults are speaking

I haven`t insulted you once yet you have repeatedly insulted me, you get away with it. why ?
Only a couple of people over at TMG have a problem with you so don`t tar everyone withthe same brush.

Must be done, TPs are grossly unbalanced.
A TP is analogous to a bus. You can't fill a bus with heavy cargo, for that we use lorries. Buses are full of seats. Imagine the complaints from passengers if the run before, that TP had been shovelling ore collected from space. There would be grit everywhere.
The TP class was never intended to be an additional freighter - it was designed from the outset as a passenger transport. The fact that they are useless for passengers (no demand) and they excell at the job that a TS is intended for (trucking) shows that they have been inaccurately implemented, and need adjusting.
TS ships are fine at their job - it's just that the TP is insanely better. I think at the very least the TC should be reduced to M - when was the last time you saw a bus that could load pallets?

Re: ATTENTION! : TP Class
Needs to be done, otherwise the TS class is nearly worthless. TS type ships are traditionally slow, cheap vessels, maximizing profits for their owners. Only time in RL this didn't hold true was with the advent of clipper ships, and these were more like TPs anyway. Cargo transports are slow with huge cargo capacity while passenger ships are faster and carry very limited cargo.LV wrote:Ok i'll keep this simple

what would you think.
And during conflicts, they are always prime targets. The Spanish found this out the hard way in the Caribbean in the 16th and 17th centuries. And just look at what the German navy did in the Atlantic in WWI and WWII, and the US Navy in the Pacific in WWII. Freighters are sitting ducks, that need protection.
It's just the way it is.
Have a great idea for the current or a future game? You can post it in the [L3+] Ideas forum.

Done, but sadly as there were already the maximum poll options, it was added at the expense of the 10 Chinese burns...LV wrote:modsFluffy! wrote:Where is the "No, leave the TP's alone" option?
Edit your poll to include this option and give it a few clicks for me...
