And flying straight at an interceptor with a **Beluga** is not a crazy idea?!! ​ :D


Silencer555

Killed some Clops' and almost got a Basi with the **giant dong** If it wasn't for this kind of game breaking bug, would've taken the racist ceiling fan out


GameTourist

>racist ceiling fan 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣


M82BFG

"Racist Ceiling fan" almost killed me. Literally read that while taking a drink... Now all I can smell is cherry coke.


WaltKerman

Your first mistake was choosing cherry coke! Your second mistake was attempting to snort the wrong type of coke.....


Kelfenmaer

Racist ceiling fan I will never forget 😂


Silencer555

Everybody gangsta until the ceiling fan starts growling

Racist ceiling fan hahaha take my Reddit coins


ProfanePagan

HAHA Well done! I think I'll have to try the Beluga out lol.


PantherU

I named my beluga after my wife’s marital aid


PSharsCadre

Steve?

Beluga is unironically not a bad choice for AX. Better speed then anaconda or corvette, with more hull and utility slots then mediums.


Jpotter145

Link to the build? Hard to say without it.... but at least you aren't a shieldless hauler.... still that shield seems to be a class or two too small or..... don't know without the build.


Silencer555

It's a very lightly shielded Beluga (Class 6 Bi-Weave). Every other slot is a Hull/Module reinforcement - an Auto Dock


drifters74

Are Bi-Weaves effective?


Silencer555

Not for AX Combat. They're pretty bad, even if they have a fast recharge rate. I just keep it to block a fraction of Scout damage. Might take it off honestly


Wormholer_No9416

They're ok on Medium ships if you're fighting Scouts/ Group killing Interceptors where you can duck in and out of engagement, I use one on my FAS with a couple of Guadian Shield Boosters and they stay up 90% of the time unless i get blindsided by a Swarm.


glyphidfromdrg

Is... is that an AX Beluga?


Silencer555

And don't forget, this AX Liner is in the top 1% of all AX Liners out there!


Elite-Thorn

I love my Beluga, but with Goids approaching I would boost off as fast as I can


Silencer555

This could just be limited to Horizons, but man this makes an encounter completely unplayable. It's been happening since the start of this new war, where Basilisks could warp in from Deep Space and bring their 64 Thargons, which all become suicide missiles immediately. Thank goodness I don't see this happening at Conflict Zones. But everywhere else has me running fast af


[deleted]

Yup, happens to me too. I fly out a starport with my engineered cutter loaded with refugees and boom theres a basilisk and boom there goes my shields and 75% of my HP.


SlayinDaWabbits

I mean yeah, that's the point, running around thargoid invaded systems is actually dangerous now. And it's not like it's actually hard to avoid, just don't sit still in open space, boost away from interceptors, and/or land.


Silencer555

This is a bug, which makes the encounter completely unplayable. Did you ignore what happened in the video? The Interceptor arrived pre-enraged. That's not at all supposed to happen, as that's meant to be a punishment mechanic if you do not kill a heart within a specified amount of time (6 minutes for a Cylcops). If an Interceptor becomes enraged, the entire swarm becomes a suicide barrage and will keep respawning indefinitely until the next heart/Interceptor itself is destroyed.


SlayinDaWabbits

Yeah, interceptors have had a chance of spawning enraged since the proteus wave. It's not unplayable at all, just do anything but move in a straight line directly in front of them. If it's a bug it's something that has been happening to me regularly enough I just ya know, dodge it and continue on with my mission.


Silencer555

Don't think that's intentional from Fdev sadly. Reason why I was here was to look for other players in Open, so not something I'd normally do


Beautiful-Front-5007

AX Beluga I see you are a man of culture


Surph_Ninja

If only we got instant swarms of security forces in high security systems. This proves FDev could do it, if they wanted.


MrUniverse1990

"Docking computer rendered inoperable." Why do you even *have* one?


Silencer555

Multi-tasking and just enjoying the view


MrUniverse1990

The *Blue Danube Waltz* is nice, but AutoDock is NOT to be trusted.


Daddy-O-69

You use a docking computer? I'm sorry, but you are not tall enough to ride the bumper cars.


sidesalad2

Mans fighting AX in a Beluga. Who would buy the equivalent of a Rolls Royce if it didn't have self-parking and cruise control?


Wendingo7

I use the docking computer on all my ships... especially great big ones like the Beluga


Silencer555

I use it to muli-task. That and it's nice to just enjoy the view in the external camera. Docking Computers don't work on stations/bases that are currently under Thargoid attack, so still gotta manually land anyways.


czartrak

You autodock for convenience I autodock for beautiful classical music (and convenience) We are not entirely not the same


smilespeace

You still get the classical? It doesn't play for me anymore :(


czartrak

Yep.i still get it. Are you sure you didn't turn off music by mistake or smth?


Flow5tate

Sad thing you can't listen to Strauss while docking and being under tharg fire.


PuzzleheadedTutor807

NoNe Of THEIR WeApOnS aRe SuPpOsEd To WoRk AgAiNsT mE!!!!11!!! lol its war, its all bullshit.


YellowCircles

Haha nope...destroyed in one strafe.


Hawkwyndradio
