Late last night, the Serco Support Vessel Rocinante was christened at the Latos M-7 shipyards and sent upon it's maiden voyage. Constructed and piloted by Lieutenant A-Dawg, this is ONE's first Goliath of several slated for construction.

Nice

Oh and with all the cash you guys should have gotten Fleet Consumer a capship a while ago poor guy.

Congratulations ONE!!

But R.I.P.

/me soft claps

JJ's just mad I'm better at swarms than him.

You can't be "better" with swarms than anyone else. It's a fire and forget. Basically a press-here-to-win button.

I removed some posts.

You can be better at swarms than somebody, swarms are chess for people who know how to use them.

Mi5 is correct. Swarms are not a good weapon for anything but distraction and massive burst damage, but there are still right and wrong ways to use them. For example, if you fire multiple volleys of swarms at different angles, they'll take different routes to their target, reducing the directions the target can safely dodge. And you really have to choose your shots, because if you just fire willy nilly, you'll waste most of your ammo. Not every volley is about hitting the target; swarms are good tools for keeping people busy or making them move in predictable ways. But you don't need multiple volleys chasing somebody in the same direction; that is wasteful. Save the ammo and use it to cut them off, or wait until they get cocky and come too close, then unload directly in their face. Etc.

Isn't that special! Only a week after TGFT launched a Goliath. But theirs is gaurunteed to be 100% stolen parts free. You're welcome for my IBA A-Dawg.

Sorry PaKettle, all my parts were homegrown.

As for Blaqk's (yet another) derailment of a thread to make it about himself, that's an old screenshot. He's trying to make himself look tough by killing an AFK Goliath from months ago.

Exhibit A:


That's the old collision mesh shown in his screenshots, not the new one shown here.

Nice Golly Red Giant you have there, A-Dawg!

Off on a tangent, I know, but it was my understanding that the collision mesh remained unchanged on these new models. I know the damage diagram was updated, but I thought it was symbolic, rather than an actual representation of the collision mesh?

Has the actual collision mesh been altered, or not?

I didn't know May 2nd was "months" ago
