At some point, there will be a change to capital ships which will make it so you are not allowed to equip control bots on them. Hopefully we can get some more capital ship content into the game with the server reset and I don't want people slaving cap ships as they were not balanced for this sort of thing.

Any type of bots?
Just combat? Just trade? A lot of people use them for both atm, well at least the T10 ones. |

there a specific reason for this? currently as it stands only noobs are willing to pilot these things. i have not seen any content in game or talked about in development that would make me want to leave my pax to pilot one of these slow,decrepit,creatures. i actualy dont even see the reasoning behind caring if they are slaved or not at this point. tbh they were a major dissapointment because they are so limited in fuctionality..players will not play in a ship no matter how many exclusive items they have if it pilots so friggen slow that the afk timer runs out before they reach a destination.

Yea, i gotta agree with Jeffl, i personally use capital ship, bought myself a bc, and yet, barely never use it, i prefer the t10 one, for the simple reason that the bc is so freaking slow. About the slaves, i understand that they arent "made to be slave" but yet, making them impossible to use as combat bot will simply screw the fleet commander completly, one of the thing that make it strong (way less than many other classes tho) is the bonus on capital ship from fleet focus + the combat slave bonus. Take that out, it just play suck, cant fight itself, not so good with drones, fighters, well, they just suck unless you can use more with some slaves, but then aggain, the fregate are perfect for that...
Well, anyway i know it wont change a thing and ill still continue to play as fleet commander even if it suck even more, but well, it just anger me when i see a gunner or a bersek owning everything while well, im just stuck trying to get my slave back because it went away 30k distance while i was fighting... |

So, what are we meant to do with our monkey aura gens now? if you think im going to leave my ward+ behind, and pilot a cap ship....just to give off some +shields, then your wrong, if you think im gonna aug a cap ship for healing...then your wrong...
I hope players will be reinbursed for the cash they have spent on making these as slaves... This is a complete joke....making them as unslavable ships, wont make players use them more. They truly do suck unfortunately, not at all what was expected. difficult to build...slow...ugly.....enormous.... |

They are meant to have good aura gens to help make a group stronger. You are meant to have to sacrifice a combat ship for it though, if you can have them as slaves you can have a big group capital ships with you on a uber run all with different aura gens which will make your group totally overpowered.
As long as they can be used as slaves we cant make them more useful. |

noone in this game is going to sacrifice a usable combat ship, for one of these, im sorry but it wont happen, maybe some level 200 guy using one will, but there is not a chance on hell, that i would give up my ward, to use one of these...so in effect, you are making cap ships useless, and also aura gens...

Quote: As long as they can be used as slaves we cant make them more useful. It helps if you actually read what I write.... That means that after we have remove the ability to use them as slaves we can start looking into making them more useful. If we make them better now they will be totally broken as slaves. Until then, if you find them useless just dont use them. |
