The frigate?

Hello,

as I am not that interested in flying jets, so the most interesting innovation for me was for the 1.4 update the contrallable ship in falklands map. 5 patches have passed and nothing. Was it canceled or are you (Devs) still running into issues?

Thx for response

From what I was told, Rhino couldn't make it super over powered so he lost motivation to finish it. xD

Can't tell if your being serious or not but if you are, no that isn't the case, I'm the main person who is looking at limiting its capabilities as having something that is OP would just harm the game overall.

I should probably take this opportunity to clarify that I'm still planning to finish the Frigate and a few other things for PR, just taking a break from PR at the moment since I'm a little burnt out and I should also stress that the Frigate is a massive task, since its not just the size and complexity of the Frigate itself that is the problem, but all the other things that goes with it since it isn't just a big boat at the end of the day, a lot of new things are coming with it.

Also anantdeathhawk I only posted those pictures for you in community modding to help you see where/how to spend tris, they aren't really promo shots, these are the promo shots if you want them, although they are pretty old WIP pics now :p

Well... that's akward. Post more classified stuff without asking first dude, i want to see the devs get pissed at you for showing us all their secrets.

Also question: What is it exactly that is so OP about the frigate that you have trouble balancing? Is it its long range engagement capability? Or its overall firepower?

Not classified or I wouldn't have posted it in the public community modding forums, its just not the best picture for promotion since it has no textures etc on and the like :p

Nothing.... If anything it is too vulnerable vs Jets right now but hoping to rectify that.

I was aware, i know the community modding forums, but the way you worded it it sounded like you were scolding him a little bit for posting it.

So i played along and pretended it was classified, to scold him some more. ;)
