    @10:30 One of the strange things I noticed was that the PDC turrets stopped firing before the torpedo was destroyed. It looks like the PDCs might be pure visual and just coded to do deterministic DPS to incoming targets as a way to lower server load, otherwise they wouldn't know that the target would for sure be killed by the bullets already fired.

      @@DedLeader Given the persistent problems with Desynch. on the servers to this day it could easily just be that the game is a buggy mess with the player seeing events out of order, or something else, but the guns appearing to presciently know how many bullets they need to fire before their target goes down points to a problem somewhere.

      @Camural  28 дней назад +7

      @RN1441 I notice this too, the PDS turrets stop firing as if they would know the torpedo will get destroyed.
      But let's not kid ourselves, this is CIG :). Most of the people who know what they are doing left, CIG has to work mostly with young and inexperienced people who don't find enough experienced people to learn from.
      Of course this is, once again, the lowest possible effort, it is all fake.
      Of course it is a game, in the end, everything is faked.
      However, one can fake believable and one can fake making it look like magic.

      @@Camural I would actually be HAPPY to see CIG taking a shortcut like this as it wastes far less resources and developer time to have the PDC just do hitscan damage to targets rather than tracking every little projectile individually as they have talked about obsessively doing in the past. It's just a waste of resources on both developer time and server performance.

    • @123TheCloop
      @123TheCloop 28 дней назад

      @@RN1441 not really, a shortcut likes this presents a few other problems. just like some games where netlimiters can "scuff" damage to enemies, the same could happen here in that, if the server or user ends up having some serious network limitation, the "damage" might not be correctly registered therefor when the PDS stops firing because it "assumes" and x value of damage has been accrued then said missile could actually still be functional and on its way to kill you and you died because your PDS was coded poorly.
      If thats how they have actually coded this system then I can see so much wrong with it in terms of cheaters abusing it, there would have to be some server-client authentication on this code to ensure no one is abusing output or receiving damage through nefarious means which imo just presents more issues

    It doesn't need balancing. Point defense SHOULD destroy them. That's why you get more than one ship involved so that the point defense is overwhelmed. They are not too effective- this is a Polaris, not a fighter. It's this sort of thinking that got us where we are to begin with, with everything being equally bad. F8C, Corsair, Ares... the list goes on.

    Have you considered testing firing torpedoes from multiple angles? So one from the side, one from the top, and one from the rear? That way you can see if the logic allows the PDS to operate independently when and if needed.

      Good question. I think the new missile speed is profoundly stupid. If they want to make it interesting but give people a chance, give missiles high top speed with low acceleration to encourage firing from longer range. Make missiles the king of long range with guns the king of short range.

  • @vladkudrya9615
    @vladkudrya9615 28 дней назад +7

    Now it works like this: one system destroys one target and then reloads. If you have 4 systems firing at 1 torpedo, after it is destroyed they will all go into reloading. To destroy all the torpedoes you need to rotate the body of the ship so that the systems aim one at a time and not all at once.

    • @Camural
      @Camural  28 дней назад +4

      @vladkudrya9615 this is not how it works.
      890 destroyed all incoming size 10 torpedoes.
      Polaris destroyed all incoming size 10 torpedoes when aiming at the rear or sides.
      My guess is the forward PDS arc of Polaris is bugged.

    • @vladkudrya9615
      @vladkudrya9615 28 дней назад +4

      ​@@CamuralBugs can explain absolutely everything in this game) In our tests, if the ship was spinning, it shot down much more missiles and torpedoes. We launched size 5 and size 9 torpedoes from different directions simultaneously. 5 people shot Polaris with torpedoes. And this is our observation, after the system is triggered in one direction, it seems to freeze for a while. In general, if you rotate the ship when you attacking from all sides, you will live much longer. If the ship stood calmly, then when attacked from all sides, it shot down torpedoes from both sides and torpedoes hit from the other sides, and if you rotate it, it shot down much more torpedoes

    Fire a volley of s3 missiles from the pilot seat as you fire a volley of torpedoes to overwhelm the PDS. Just make sure you're at close range because those s3 missiles are quite a bit faster. It seems the PDS targets first-in-range.

    Point Defense should be ballistic based and not laser that way it can run out of ammo, this would make it more balanced in not constantly shooting everything down and may even make sense if the main power goes out.

  • @kristoffernordlund8392
    @kristoffernordlund8392 28 дней назад

    Might be that the first explosion makes so the pds gets blinded. Because it sounds like the pds starts shooting the last torp around 5.40 min. If you got time test the pds system while moving, Might actually be good, If it actually work that good they should put in subtargetting turrets and components, armor and armor penetration. and make large hulls invurnable to weapons below size 4. That way fighters will have a use taking out external components, while the large ships breech the hull.

    • @Camural

      @the-Sauce this is not how Star Citizen's "physics" work, objects do not inherit the speed of their mother ship:
      -a Merlin released at max afterburner speed of an Andromeda is at zero speed
      -objects thrown out of a ship are at zero speed
      -missiles/torpedoes launched from a ship are at their own speed, they do not get a boost from the ship firing them.
      Yes, Star Citizen has very little physics even in year 13.

    • @Camural
      @Camural  28 дней назад +1

      @friendlyspacedragon7250 no, the "fire torpedo button pusher" enters the torpedo console, which is at the torpedo tubes (you might want to watch my video Polaris - first look).
      He uses an external camera, selects a target, target gets locked, unless distance is too low, and he fires 1-4 size 10 torpedoes.
      Of course the bridge crew can "pin" a target, still, this is shoving multi crewing down our throats, like CIG did with Scorpius DS (aka Antares) and ROC-DS.
      If CIG insists on a dedicated "fire torpedo button pusher", fine.
      However, he should be on the bridge and not standing on a console.
      Just imagine what force reactions will do to him.

    For a ship that will require engineering and be very costly to operate (it already kind of is, repairs and restock is ludicrous), it is utterly underpowered, the torpedoes are fine (they could use having more hp so they can withstand some fire from PDS) but the turrets are waaay to weak, especially the s6, dual s6 ballistics should not require over 5-6 direct hits to kill an npc mustang and overall the ship is pretty weak, and it's very sad that it is unable to restock the fighter in the hangar bay, it also needs at least double the amount of power it currently has, right now you can't fire with the laser turrets for more than 2 seconds before you run out.
    I would say it perhaps needs a nerf to its hull hp, right now it feels like a tank that's unable to hit anything hard which is the exact opposite of what it should be
