  • The new SRV : Scorpion by Vodel. After 6 years Elite Dangerous finally from days in Horizons, now In ODYSSEY EXCLUSIVE have been given the 2nd Surface Recon Vehicle... after 6 long years. A combat based, 2-seater vehicle made for PEW PEWs & BOOMS. It's equipped with a highly inaccurate DAKKA gun and a massively OP seeker lock-on missile. But overall... what the hell is this thing?!

    The reason the heavier SRV is able to climb better is due to grip: a lighter vehicle will lose grip more quickly because the rotational force generated by the tires will overcome the center of mass more quickly on a steep slope. More weight keeps the wheels firmly planted, making them grip better, and it will also help maintain momentum when you actually get up to speed

      Except a higher center of gravity could offset that. Effectivly pulling the Scarab away from the surface as the angle increases. Where in this case more weight = less traction from less surface contact. When it comes to climbing stuff its all about surface area and wheel base. A short wheel base as low as you can get it while still being able to clear obstacles, as much surface contact as you can muster and decent tourqe will win every time. Weight be damned, with in reason of course. This is why jeeps were so great at it. The Scorpion has far less surface contact with less wheels but a much lower center of gravity. Being lower and lighter it should be heaps faster, and more nimble. But in a climb I would expect it to be a wash. Then again I only know about street, strip, and mud. Not extraterrestrial yeehaw. So ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
      Ultimately though none of that matters because I'ts guaranteed bull sh*t anyway.

    From what I remember of Sentinels, they were never a real threat, they were mostly annoying because they had missiles that could flip you over if you weren't under the umbrella of point denfense from a closely parked small ship. It would seem that that would be more annoying if it were to happen with the Scorpion.

      @@danielstokker Ah, yes, so that is why MBT, IFV and other, mostly tracked, armored vehicles have so many large windows in them.......... Oh, wait, they don't. The best you get is either very small, periscopic vision blocks, cameras, or sticking your head out. Granted, the cameras are very good, usually have a night vision mode and, for gunner and commander, a thermal sight on top of it.
      There is also the point that even those vehicles that have armored glass, often try to minimize the area of glass that they need, where it is possible to do so. As with any design, though, compromises have to be made and each vehicle is designed for a specific protection level, e.g. only against calibers up to heavy machine guns.
      Anyway, my point is, that there are quite a few types of military vehicles that don't have windows as such (or can hide them under armor, see Boxer GTK), to improve survivability against even some types of autocannons.
      The Scorpion SRV would, at best, be a scout vehicle, meant to relay information, but stay hidden and retreat when it meets actual opposition.

    Yeah, I also thought that the biggest on-foot Conflict Zones would be similar to Battlefield to encourage the use of other vehicle types. The upshot would be that there would be a lot of variety; each CZ could have a different combination of settlement types.
    I imagined like 3-5 related settlements each separated by a few km of empty terrain and roads. Settlements would have a vehicle bay to pick up a Scorpion or Scarab and things like military bases might have Eagles, Vipers, or Vultures with standard loadouts for players to jump into. I don't care if they want to make Bring Your Own Ship the same as other CZs where you have one chance and that's it, but I'm disappointed that all we got was a basic point-capture against bots with no real effort to making SRV combat interesting, viable, or even something one can encounter!

      I can confirm we already have mounted remote control/operated weapon systems with active target tracking, IR/thermal/night vision, and normal or better accuracy than human operated, as long as the person operating the system has good idea how to use the system. Check out the CROW systems. They are heavily used by special forces and military branches with more funding. Heck, even the automated anti rocket (c-ram) or anti missile (seaRAM) systems used today are more accurate lol. They are also super badass.

  • @Velisus

    I wish the Scorpion operated more like the Batmobile "tank" in Arkham Knight with 360-degree independent movement of both wheels and turret, toted an anti-spaceship cannon along with the anti-personnel machine gun, maybe some swarm missiles to address skimmers, and point defense slots. Like, make it a formidable ground force.
    Also, look to NMS for some other deployable vehicles. It would be awesome to have a mech-walker that's deployable without landing (think dropping into an area without having to travel 2km from the restriction zone) or a hover bike to glide over the rocks and not get flipped. I especially like the hover bike models used in Skyforge.

  • @Insanerobert44
    @Insanerobert44 2 года назад +2

    This vehicle might be a joke for older players, I just joined in around late 2020 and, from my point of view, I actually loved it's overall performance gameplay wise and as a design for an SRV. Even the machine gun wind-up could make sense and can be found in other game mechanics (in theory, the faster the loading mechanism rotates the shorter is bullet dispersion) and can be worked around it especially since you get access to a missile launcher with dummy and seeker launch options - if we rely on 19th century cranked technology at least - plus it has extra ammo and an additional belt to reload compared to Scarab repeater.
    However:
    -1: it seems unfair and unreasonable to keep the vehicle just for Odyssey, it is perfectly viable for Horizons as well since there is no mechanic or other factor to limit it to Odyssey's client - even the textures could be simplified a bit if necessary
    -2: no option for hardpoint changes based on gameplay preferences - a missed opportunity
    -3: I agree on gameplay balance and overall damage sponge / output, but ships and on-foot armor/weapons suffer from this as well
    -4: no combat dedicated missions on foot
    -5: no possibility for countermeasures - every modern military vehicle has some kind for them, from smoke shells to active protection systems like jammers, anti-missile projectile dispensers or even shaped charges - a small point defense would suffice as well
    On a small note though, I tried to shoot small ships like Asp Scout, Hauler, hangar fighters etc and it can actually kill ships while shooting your gun to kill shields and missile to finish up the ship's hull (or decreease it enough to be finished by the ongoing fire on the main gun), but I agree that a properly player-based ship will decimate the poor Scorpion in seconds even without using rockets since ships may be capable of locking onto you and any gimballed gun may actually track you off, while their engineered shields will shrug off your ammunition long enough to kill you several times.

      Are you stupid ? The gun of the new srv is better in everything than the old one. A strong spread in the first 2 seconds on the close distance does not particularly interfere, and on the far distance you just shoot longer or use missiles (and if I'm not mistaken, the range is also much greater). Slower than the standard srv, but you rub your armor on every bump and are not afraid to turn 360 when trying to turn or because of any bump.

    Normally I am in agreement in many of your points; and even here I agree with everything but one little nitpick... There is this trend I am observing with a lot of PVP-centric people is this concept of "balance" being a total, hard-line, even-skill "this target wins if it's played better" without any consideration as to what's being pitted against what. In a straight arena-shooter, I totally agree... But you can't apply the same logic to anything with combined arms. There are many things you can, and should, poke fun at FDev for, especially over Odyssey! Them finding that a multi-million dollar, 2000 ton FTL capable starship with a missile bore larger than your thigh absolutely makes cream paste out of a technical (milsimmer for "toyota with a gun onnit") being a good state for balance is not one of them! Only in the competitive PVP scene does that seem to be represented as bad.

    It's amazing for the missions where you clear out a base, which have 1-2 skimmers, and like 40 goons
    As well as acting as a great energy and ammo reup point in conflict zones, as the npcs don't shoot at it empty, you can also target the thrusters of those dropships and stop them from perminantly apparently, I don't know why you would, since you can rack up a lot of kils by simply running them over, which is safer than getting out and picking them off

    Well i can 100% agree that this is again a wasted opportunity, and the combined war or sphere of comabt as they call it just a joke, the Scorpion is not that bad.
    I do shoot down 2 NPC ships with it, on of them which was shooting me, and it was a duel (NPC eagle with rails, which because of how the NPC rail work, was quite challangeing). So while calling ship vs SRV combat healthy is a joke, at least it works against small ships. Fighting anything big: ships, skimmert, guardians, and thargoid ground forces, are better then the Scrab. The only thing which is worst, and you encounter like 85% of the cases, is the infantry, which coul be also good IF they would make the starting accuricity good (which they propably never do :( ).
    But the best thing of all, the most important is that, you CAN travel like 100 m with it without falling over, tripping over, rolling over, which you CAN'T do in the Scrab.
    So if you dont have to travel big distances (material collecting, or visiting something) it fells better.
    Which is kinda ironic, that for me, it is more prefered for exploration, and the Scrab is better against general combat. Just shows how FDev is incapable in some fields.
