X4 Foundations: 7.10 Beta 1: Testing a 2 by 2 meson config for Katana
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 июл 2024
- Hello everybody,
After the fun I had with the:
- Improved Terran Meson Stream weapon by adding small gimbal.
from the beta, I've decided to test a config idea suggested by a viewer, namely a 2 by 2 alternating groups meson. The test Katana have no mods, just a stock one.
Conclusions:
- the pause in dps is a problem, at least for me.
Now, I admit I'm a bad pilot, I mostly spend my time in X4 ordering fleets around :P, maybe some other ace pilot out there can make better use of a full meson Katana. As for me, I will be back to my ususal 2 meson 2 proton config, and this is what I will revisit in my next clip.
So, enjoy my struggle and see you in the next one. :)
About me:
I like to share my X4 Foundations experiences, some because they are really amazing, some because they are really anoying.
Like the video? Why not buy me a coffee?

Great video - admirals don't fly fighter jets anymore.
I am not sure, but the cooldown looks still awful. On fast ships, when i can control the distance, i like Taus, they shred everything away.
Main question can AI do Mesons? In the past they always failed.
Have not tried AI with meson, but I think things are about the same, because I have not heard anything any word about improvement.🤔
@@ragnos28 I did try mesons against a K (about 30 Terran Gladius fighters), but they had a slight problem of deciding to hang around the K as it exploded, resulting in too many losses over time. Although the K didn't survive very long. My "I'm learning this game" playthough (which has about 30 days on the game clock), the chimera was my go to bomber. I don't know what's going to replace it in my Terran-only playthrough (about a day on the clock so far, Familty Nhuut has already fallen to the Xenon),
@@breytac, Gladius with Mesons sounds great. But cooling 4x Mesons down could take ages.
I wonder, Gladius should have enough HP to tank exploding I&K's
@@breytac With terrans I had to do my one and only compromise on species only tech policy, namely using torpedo launchers, well semi-compromise as the terrans can produce torpedoes per se, but they can't grasp those elusive launchers. 🤔 And even then, I have 20 Falx with torpedoes protecting my aux ship against capitals, only to be used in the most dire of emergencies as they are bound to suffer losses, while the main fleet anti capital solution are destroyers and the flagship Asgard.
I consider terran fighters as inferior to CW fighters so, in my terran fleet, I use double the amont, 80, and I use them all only as interceptors, 2 Tokyo with 40 Kalis each.
@@ragnos28, i was not getting warm with Kalis. They are too slow, and have not enough guns.
Have you modded the weapons at all or are they just vanilla?
Pure vanilla.
What paint mod is that? Where can I get it?
The paint is Aldrin, is from back in the day when ventures were still up.
So, atm the only way to get it is some paint shop modd or something.🤔
