Jesus Christ the amount of back and forth they’ve done with this FM… and each iteration takes YEARS

[–] Kickforce@lemmy.wtf 1 points 1 day ago

It all depends what they put in its place.

Did I miss an announcement somewhere? Are they actually getting rid of NAV mode?

Last I heard they were making a few changes to it, but not in the way of removing it.

Yeah, they talked about it a few times. NAV mode travel will be replaced by quantum boost (quantum jump with minimal "gameplay").

In the future to get to the current NAV speed you'll have to craft/buy higher tier ship (possibly just engine, I don't think they clarified 100% if just component will be enough).

So they invented supercruise that you have to pay attention to. Amazing.

[–] Essence_of_Meh@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Pretty much, at least based on what they showed and talked about before. During yesterday's Q&A they did say this design changed somewhat over the last two years but we don't know how or if in any significant way.

Racing without current NAV mode velocities will be fricking boring.

You'll have to grind those ship tiers, I guess. That and drop as much weight as possible once that becomes a relevant factor.
