No. That would be crazy. Beer is way too low proof to burn.

I don't think the Y-8 quest was broken intentionally, as that other similar quest got broken at the same time, but I wouldn't be too surprised if it was kept as low-priority until the new turrets and stuff were added. That bothers me a bit.

Pub 24 is practically going to end up as a pilot revamp, though. DP is a machine.

I already posted this in another thread but I just want to make sure everyone reads it..

Before Publish 24 hits make sure you unload all components from you the Y-8. Since they're gonna be adding hard points, it might mess up things if you still have stuff on the hard points.

Remember the mess with the hardpoints,lost components and mystery mass when they added the cargohold hardpoint?

Better be safe then sorry.

EH?! Y-8 fixes i dont think constitute a pilot revamp. There something else to know here?

There's the MP ship components too, but I'm not sure that'd constitute a revamp either (it'd be fixing a rather broken aspect of space, but not quite a revamp).

Not sure if I should get excited or worried.

Hey, at least they are looking at space related stuff...

Good news

does anyone know if the existing Y8's will convert to the new 'upgraded' Y8 once redeeded? - Im worried we might get the 'nuetral ship mass increase' issue again when all prior created ships suddenly become out-od date and canot be upgraded

tomo - any chance of a quick nudge to darth platypus for confirmation?

That is a very good question, one I'll bring up momentarily.

And obviously it isn't REALLY like a pilot revamp, but between the Y-8 quest fix, the turret additions, the upgrades to space mining, and the heavy-duty POB parts, well that's a lot of good news all at once. But jeez, saying it like that sounds boring.

Edit: okay I asked about Y-8 conversion in the c-forum, I'll let you all know if they bother to tell me anything on that front.

It would be nice if they fixed the RGI, and made a pass to balance the RoTW and JtL ships. Also prepare for the new ships that will be here soon. Because you know they are gonna break all JtL and RoTW ships!

Pub 24 sounds really good this way!
It warms my heart to see that they pay attention to space again, and lets hope they will fix a lot of things soon, and balance a lot out there in the coldness of space.

Fixes for space for the win!

DP is now my hero.

Okay, just got word in the c-forum, and it looks like DP posted to that thread in the shipwright forum as well, but the old, 2-turret Y-8s will convert to the new, 4-turret model with publish 24. You won't have to run the quest again or anything like that, the change will affect everyone.

Aura is still my hero. But Tomo is catching up.

(I'm so going to hear it from Aura for this )
