No, Snail is a Londoner.

[Colonol Dekker]

Woot, i should start a London Club...

Hmmm, Snail... You're north of the river, and a bit west too. Based on e-accent?

[colecampbell666]

Actually, he just moved from Singapore six or seven years ago.

Yeah, and I'm back in Singapore for a few months...

Let me know if you're in Singapore December period...we should host a Singapore HLP meet-up while I'm there

I might be, but I exist only on the internet.

Back to Topic:

I believe the Triton is the better freighter. Although the Chronos has double the armor, 10'000 is still too weak to buy enough time except when the Subdrive is almost recharged or so. Furthermore, the Chronos is armed with but one Avenger turret (whis isn't all too bad anyway though) whilst the Triton has one HL-7 and one Flak turret, quite impressive for a Freighter (well, looking at the Poseidon, it has 4 HL-7s, but now that thing has piss weak armor)! And although this is not enough to fend off even a wing of Pegasi (which suck IMO), Freighters tend to fly in convoys. Multiple Tritons together provide a surprisingly good defence screen.

[colecampbell666]

Pegasi, when used right, are the best fighter for certain situations.

The Triton actually has 2 flaks, and they're well positioned.

Like Dekker said, the Chronos has that "Trucker feeling", but I like the Poseidon  because the 4 lasers are a very real threat on medium.

[FreeSpaceFreak]

No, the Triton has only one flak turret.

[Snail]

I think the Avenger's better than the HL-7.

[Admiral_Stones]

I think the Avenger's better than the HL-7.

May be that the Avenger has better DPS in pretty much everything, but in theory it is obsolete and weaker than the HL-7, has a crappy sound & effect and an unparalleled tech description. Even then it's only one turret, though IDK where it is located, I guess on a ventral mount, whilst the Trition has a much larger FOF.

[Mars]

The Avenger and the Subach are actually pretty much even.

The Avenger does significantly more hull damage per second, but I find the Subach's higher rate of fire makes it more useful against maneuverable fighters.

[colecampbell666]

I don't like the Avenger, it sounds weak, like rain hitting a shield, and while it may be good on paper, it doesn't seem to be that useful, takes too long to kill a Basilisk.

All the FS1 weapons were more or less the same thing just with different statistics and colors.

[colecampbell666]

Not really. The Banshee sounded cool, as well as the ML-16.

[Snail]

Not really. The Banshee sounded cool, as well as the ML-16.

But they were all just fast-moving blobs. The only one that wasn't a blob was the Banshee. In FS2, the Subach was shaped like a spear, the Maxim was a bit spikey and the Lamprey looked like (useless) great balls of fire.

        Eh, so? All FS2 beams are more or less the same thing just with different stastics and colours too. What's yer point?

I didn't have a point. I never have a point.
