6.0.2 (Beta) Update: 21 Feb
After quite a lot of testing and reading your feedback, I’ve made some ship balance adjustments. Most were very slight tweaks, but here are some of the more noticeable ones:
- Reduced KEV-12 and KBOP cloak duration to original levels. (50 seconds and 60 seconds, respectively)
- Added an oblit tube to KBOP. (From 1 tube to 2)
- Bumped DY-600’s warp cost back to original. (From 1 to 2)
- VSHAR warp/impulse energy reduction/lowered cloak cost.
- EXCEL hull adjustment. (45 to 40) Torp capacity up to 66
- ACR-45 energy tweak, removed drones, bumped mines to 12.
- CDA-180 +10 torps. (70 to 80)
- RWAR hull adjustment. (45 to 50)
- Larson +8 torps. (48 to 56)
I’ve also bumped the bots up from 17 to 20, and reduced their respawn interval from every 13 seconds to every 60 seconds.
This week, I’ll concentrate a little more on the middle-speed classes in my testing, and perhaps get through the warp 14 ships. There will likely be another balance patch next weekend, which will hopefully dial-in most of the remaining ships, and i’ll have a look at the results of this weekend’s patch to see if anything else is needed.
