9,746 [CMFRT] KilljoyCutter [CMFRT] Banned 16,985 posts Report post #2 Posted February 11, 2020 Good. Will be able to remove and sell off the useless TPS that's being forced in place of TASM1 on a couple of my ships. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
3,527 [RKLES] Admiral_Thrawn_1 Members 12,592 posts 14,320 battles Report post #3 Posted February 11, 2020 Thank you for the heads up! As I will certainly be wanting to swap out modules on some of my ships for some of the new modules and was assuming I would simply have to sell certain modules. But this will be a nice little credit savings for me as some of my modules can instead be used on other ships which in the long run is a credit savings. (Pretty sure I have spent 200+ million credits since August of 2019, and while I have gotten many ships, modules and other items. I do need to try and tight the old credit belt and try to get back to s nice healthy 150 million credits banked as a reserve fund as you never know when one might need to operate solely off of reserve credits for a while.)

You might want to include the upgrade changes and note the actual dates … 1 week is a very short time considering what's happening and only gives players until very early Wed 19th (effectively Tuesday) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The free swapping will be nice though. Not sure if I want to use range or reload upgrade on Donskoi, and I'm out of free dubs.

In this case, posting the link seems like more than enough. It even says right in the graphic in the OP that it's being done because upgrades are being changed. The reasons why this is happening are also all over the forums right now, so anyone seeing this thread is seeing those threads too. Given the current context... I'm not sure I'd have all that much sympathy for someone so un-curious that they read this and didn't do any further reading to find out more.

No, this guy is constantly providing incomplete and misleading information … My advice is actually constructive … He needs to be a little more like Kiz and provide complete information at least, even if there is a bias 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TBH, I can see some usefulness to it, I'd often like things a little quicker, to give me more time with increased DPS, as planes (esp. rockets and TBs) switch sides. If I have crap for flak, I'd rather have quicker priority turnaround than a bit less crap for flak. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Straight downgrade from the thing it's forced-replacing. Depends how you play, and why you use TASM1. If it's only for the torp spotting, then TPS is an upgrade. If you use TASM1 for the increased proxy spotting, then it's a downgrade. It would be an upgrade for me, because I'm rarely in situations where the extra proxy spotting would make a difference. Of course, I don't see much value in either, compared to what I get out of more concealment/increased enemy dispersion, or faster rudder shift. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
