as of today, the trident in-game's stats are :
Trident Light Frigate

Armor 100000
Cargo Capacity 360 cu
Weapon: 13 Small
Mass: 90000
Thrust: 550 N
Max Speed: 100 m/s
Spin Torque: 150.0 Nm
Turbo Energy: 50/sec

Thank you RelayeR for these stats.

now if any of the wiki mods would post it there, it'd be great.

Hmm, I should have asked about the uber guass that's supposedly on it..

... will do

Can we buy these???
Mar 15, 2006 MSKanaka link
You being a guide, Sarahanne... yes.

Us *not* being guides... no.

oh, then those are the "Filler" stats. I wouldn't bother adding them to the wiki.

Filler stats, huh? Any ideas or opinion of how they final stats'll differ with these?
Mar 15, 2006 MSKanaka link
Well, I could always ask Momerath for the "real" stats. I'd still assume the values that have been given are being used on the things, so I think they're fine as-is. If we get different values, we can change them.

Not that hard at all. That's the point of a wiki.

these are the stats from the tridents currently with the convoys (I think)
Mar 15, 2006 MSKanaka link
If you only "think" that is the case, then yes, it needs to be checked with momerath. I think that RelayeR got those stats from the Uncool Station in Devlopia, which may or may not be the same stats used in the convoys.

Gotcha, next time I meet Mr. Noob I'll ask him.

Ray says thoses are filler stats and they don'thave the final stats available till the new release. The ship updates are still sometime off.
Mar 15, 2006 MSKanaka link
Well, we might as well use them because they're current, but if you've got such a problem with them being up, feel free to make an account on the wiki and change it.

I'd consider these stats the same way the destroyer and raptor pics are supposed to be: having them is fine but putting them out for public display on the Web is a no-no.

@MSKanaka

I am not going to drag a dev away from other more important work to tell you that the stats on the ship are filler, that Relayer should not have given them to you, etc. etc.


Jex got the message; I hope you also get it.

Umm. Why is it a no-no? Why not just keep the stats up, but put a "(These stats may not be accurate, and may change at any time)" notice up next to them?

I also discovered the Raptor pics before visiting the message board - they're plenty public.

Ask the Devs, they were the ones that said not to do it. And when you do, point them to the idiot(s) who did not comply.
Mar 27, 2006 zamzx zik link
Eh, since when? I've never heard this...

anyway, they should be adding em' in any month now (we were saying that in jauneray though, so, it's a moot point)
Mar 27, 2006 terribleCabbage link
Neither. I wasn't quite sure what Jex was quite referring to...
Mar 28, 2006 jexkerome link
If there were an archive of news, I could point you to the news items about the two ships where the devs say that, and which is the reason Joyce's site doesn't display those capships. Then again, if you moro-people missed it the first time, I don't think a second reading would help.

P.S. I have already checked the news page, geniuses, and it doesn't go that far back.

[EDIT] Never mind, found the thread where he says it:

http://www.vendetta-online.com/x/msgboard/1/12203

Very first post, and I paste:

"This one doesn't even have the game name on it or anything, so I'd rather people didn't like.. I dunno, post it on some gaming news site or something. Don't spread it around too much (hence the messageboard post instead of news). It isn't really "marketing material" yet, but I thought you guys would at least like to know that progress is being made in that department."

Since they haven't said "OK, now you can go and show it to the world", which is, mainly, because it is not ingame yet, it is safe to assume the request still stands.

I can't believe we're having this arguement. Is it ingame yet? No. Is it debugged yet? No. Is it ready yet? No. Then why worry about it? If you want to SUGGEST something for stats, go to the SUGGESTION forum.
