    The fighter swarms I suspect is a new mechanic allowing more "pets" on the field but in reality the DPS is just spread among them more. I suspect that for each "fighter" a normal hanger launches this probably chucks out say 5 sub-pets that all act as one.
    So rather than needing to control 50+ pets using a humongous hanger HUD you only control the various squadrons.

    Honestly IF it works then it should be rolled out to all carrier craft in the game, unless they are just planning to add hanger pets that specifically use those visuals/mechanics.

    Well done Cryptic.

    But this is likely going to be a Lockbox Ship. When the Crossfield was brought into the game and released as a lockbox ship. It was because CBS didn't want a huge number of them flying around in game. Why? I don't know. But that is just what I read at some point.

    The Disco-Connie is likely going to get the same treatment. Plus Cryptic will make bank with people trying to obtain one.

    It's a cash grab, but a beautiful one. Big Grin
    Those two ships are going to be Promotion Boxes.

    I just watched the video again and realised that the Connie has the blue effect dual phaser arrays. If they're able to be upgraded and kept, I find myself wanting the ship that bit more now purely on that basis.

    My guess is that they’ll just be a new type of fighter.

    Promo Box, Lock Box, same difference, IMO.

    It's not exactly apples and oranges when it comes to "games of chance". It's all a gamble.

    Personally, I don't bother with it unless I'm willing to lose whatever I'm throwing at it, as I know "House Rules" well enough to know the deck is always going to be stacked against the player. Always.

    Lucky! I barely have 7 million.
    Hey, don't feel bad- I don't have hundreds of millions or billions of EC either. Then again, I do have RL responsibilities to attend to which preclude my ability to invest copious amounts of time in video games. Perhaps when I'm retired (or rather, relaxed- as I don't understand why anyone would want to tire themselves again) I'll have lots of time to sink into it.

    Then again the way things are going lately with government and business I may be working until I'm planted in the dirt. Facts of life, I suppose.

    Those drones may also be a console ability to not open up for the balancing nightmare of having them effected by traits that buffs hangar pets. Kinda like the guardian drones. Or the ships core ability for the same reason, like the vanguard wingmen. If its the latter then they will be affected by +damagetype consoles like the Vanguard wingmen.
