Pilot Archive

you remember being able to turn on your personal light inside the cockpit.

you have most, if not all Ace badges.

You remember looting Level 1 Droid controllers with 14-15 delay.

You have more Ace rewards then you have pilot badges.

You have the statstics of every ship memorized.

You have personaly outfitted and flown every ship pre ROTW.

You are bored with PvP.

You remember what it was like when kessel really was a PvP zone.

you were in beta.

You drop and restart pilot just for something to do.

You solo all teir missions, usually the first try.

You have at least five RE'd Borestal cannons, and eight Level 6 reward engines that you havent RE'd yet.

your first reward engine was a 92 speed Level 6.

You mastered Shipwright because it was the only way to fine tune your ships to your liking.

You remember when Engines had two sets of YPR stats.

You can solo the vette in about 8 minutes.

You have at least two RE'd Level 10 guns, and personally looted each of the original 20+ level 10 guns it took to make them with.

You can accurately guess what's in someones ship.

You a view ship's Mass not so much as a limitation, but a minor annoyance.

You remember superfast jousting AI.

You remember when dunelizards had 60-65K mass.

you remember when privateers only had reactor overload as their only droid command, and the Krayt Gunship didn't exist yet.

You remember the orginal Epluse3.

Sooner or later, im gonna be asking for a fork.

Ah Epulse 3, that was awesome.

And i did my first master in Kessel when it was PvP only, doing my 30 ties was a nerve racking experience, but man was it fun. Doing the Vette wasn't as bad surprisingly, no people in as we did early in the morning.

Good list.

Oh and add

...remembers AI spamming unlimited super damage missiles none stop

Did that make it onto live? My early live pilot and beta merge together.

youve been an ace too long when...

>>you remember when rapax was a noob

I dunno if i should laugh or cry


>>you remember people grouping up 20 strong to hit the corvette

Too true. Back then the 'vette was like a big raid or something.

You've been a pilot too long if you have ever not played for a day, and eagerly logged in the next day, only to sit there, stare at the starship terminal, and type in /quit 10 mins later because nothing you can think of to do that sounds appealing.

Need that GCW in space..

Doing half the job doesnt count.

You watch Ep3, and start working out where the subcomponents are, numbering them, and then working out whether you need to change your angle of attack to get gun5...



(Yes, I sat in the cinema last night doing exactly that...)
