Not going to lie, ive been hoping this would come up. Ive been struggling with the tali since MM and the tougher servers. People were saying that dumbfire at point blank was the only way. Thank you for your dedication to science and figuring this stuff out
Each patch I have to drop default torps on Eclipse and Tali and quip Typhoon. You have to just unequipp all torps from the ship and then new ones show up.
So in summary: -equip typhoon 9 IR torpedoes -do not fire those IR torpedoes with the sun in the backdrop of your target -wait for "missile lock" audio cue to verify system guidance before firing -make sure your target is rendered in, server side -dying servers may cause hitreg issues A lot of the issues i had were trying to do the xenothreat mission where you have to fight clouds of hammerheads and adds, and apparently when you're detected, ALL turrets and ship guns in the ENTIRE CLOUD shoot at your torpedo. That is stupidly broken. Anyone got tips on getting a torp through that?
So i got a Problem know. I didnt know that ive to Buy the Add Ons for the Retaliator.. soo i visit the Pledge store for Upgrades and i dont havem. Am i Fucked know bcs i spend money for a ship that dont work One Man?
So summery i have to pay 125$ to get my Torpedos back to the Retaliator? not worth it. Edit: have an Vulture so i can melt it down for the furture. So i need the Standard Edition from the Retaliator or the Warbound?
I tried many things for change the torpedos before i saw your video, but nothing has worked. A great thank you for sharing this workaround and for your great content!
I swapped the rear torpedo module into a cargo module to load several hoverbikes. Right now we can do a lot of fun things to sabotage or board an ERT target: - Scan ships with hoverbikes at 30 metres without risk - Open doors, hangars and docking collars with ballistic ammunition - Shoot the pilot of the 890 through the cockpit window with ballistic ammunition. Also the gunners in manned turrets, for example at the constallation (at the rear of the turret) - activate the self-destruct from the co-pilot's seat on the npc Hammerhead - destroy the ship's cannons and turrets cannons with ballistic weapons as on the Redeemer Note: Some NPC pilots cannot be shot because they have a T-position (Redeemer, some Constallations) Yes, the drug charges have become much rarer, but we have realised that a group of ERT ships is a lucrative target for a Reclaimer. So we boarded up to 4 ships at a time (timing is very important as all ships open fire when you board a ship) Then we stole the ships and moved them to a safe area for salvage with weapons and turrets disabled. In case of problems or targets without lucrative cargo, there are still the torpedoes.

I took my Eclipse out as a warm-up to taking out my Retaliator for a ERT mission. I fired off two torps and returned to base to re-arm. 1 torp costs 5k to re-arm... eeeeek! I went back to using my F7A MkI, Warden or Scorpius to run those.
Haven't watched the video yet (cause I'm at work), annnd already thumbs upped it. -cause by your previous vids, your good for it. -but YES finaly, my baby! I cant wait to watch this, even if the info is crap or doesn't work out, your coverage on the Retaliator, I'm sure, is eye candy enough. Much love, Capt' o7
You can easy change torpedoes and missiles, but you must unequip all in the same rack and save. Then it show you the others missiles or torpedoes and you can equip it.
My hope is that even though the Retaliator is an older ship the modules are new and like new ships will be available to purchase in game in a few months.
I don't know if this is the case for torpedoes but for missiles to swap them you need to unequip all missiles before the game lets you equip different type.
@@cpt_foxyloxyunequip ALL the default torpedoes FIRST, then you’ll see the other store-bought torpedoes for equipping. This is meant to prevent mixing different missiles/torpedoes on the same rack.
@@cpt_foxyloxy what I meant, there was 2 version of Invictus paint for this ship, full paint blue, and blue and grey... got the full paint, but when equipped, i get the new invictus paint
Scam Citizen indeed! Holy crap those prices... I feel like once this game is out (if it ever comes out), the monetization will be so insane that it will make gacha games look like a good deal.
Prices will drop once there are legit sc competitors in the spacesim genre, but sc has no real competition at all so they can take their time and justify any price they choose
@@mndeg We know that, but they are already moving towards a model that will make the grind insane. Ship prices ingame have recently gone up by 2-3x while mission payouts remain the same.
If you run with an org you can easily farm a lot of that money very quickly. Additionally, solo vulture gets you ~200-350K per run, and that only takes like 10 mins. I am glad the ships cost a lot in-game; they SHOULD be something you really feel like you earn. MMOs usually have stupid high “level” barriers to good endgame gear, requiring months and months of grinding. For now, that’s not the case in SC.

Glad this video helps!
Hey where are my credits for my tip for getting closer till "missile lock"? 😅
ahaha, thanks for the comment, I also figured that out after a few testing, but your comments confirmed it as well.
Been using the Typhoon as my standard S9 for a while.
Each patch I have to drop default torps on Eclipse and Tali and quip Typhoon. You have to just unequipp all torps from the ship and then new ones show up.
Gonna test it, thx!
So in summary:
-equip typhoon 9 IR torpedoes
-do not fire those IR torpedoes with the sun in the backdrop of your target
-wait for "missile lock" audio cue to verify system guidance before firing
-make sure your target is rendered in, server side
-dying servers may cause hitreg issues

Nice! Great info to share with us, thank you!!
Awn nice my in game bought retaliator is unless untill they put some module store in-game :(
Buying modular ships with petrodollars seems bad value for money
that's why you should use federal reserve notes

@@Alexander-z2m8m It works with the Yubarev pistol and the Br-2 shotgun. I think it should also work with the Dragonfly's ballistic repeater.
what about the seeker torps for the retaliator, will they work as good as the typhoon?
Always been a fan of the Seeker IX torp for my 'Tali.
Same here. 👍🏾
whats good to get a hit with, typhoon or seeker to make sure you get a hit?
Great i just pledged 175 for the base Tali lol
I took my Eclipse out as a warm-up to taking out my Retaliator for a ERT mission. I fired off two torps and returned to base to re-arm. 1 torp costs 5k to re-arm... eeeeek!

I appreciate that
so sheilds dosen matter at all they just die
where can you buy the torpedos? you skipped that part!
In the shopping area of microtech.
Although still trying g to work out why they won't equip.
You can easy change torpedoes and missiles, but you must unequip all in the same rack and save. Then it show you the others missiles or torpedoes and you can equip it.
"pledge to use the fun stuff" such a shitty tactic
agreed
My hope is that even though the Retaliator is an older ship the modules are new and like new ships will be available to purchase in game in a few months.
Has anyone tested the Seeker Torpedoes on this as well?
Yes, check this video: th-cam.com/video/gRDlGpbXJwA/w-d-xo.html
They don't work very well
@@cpt_foxyloxy Roger that. Thanks! 👍🏾
I am confused. If i buy tali IN GAME, can i equip store bought modules to my in game purchased tali??
yes, that is exactly what I mean.
What I always want to know is, how do you get to the torpedo camera?? Can you include the "how to" on one of your videos?
th-cam.com/video/XNjUX4scsiE/w-d-xo.html
This video will show you how to set it up
Did you test it with Idris from the Arlington Gang?
That Idris don't have full interior
How you doing that torpedo view , when it s fly?

hei Foxy, its the FULL BLUE SKIN/paint still inside the game or they converted that to this grey and blue KITSCH ??
old invictus
It is only available during every ILW

ahhh, I only got the Full blue paint, don't know about the other one.
cannot see my torpedos module, maybe they are only available at my main residency ?
Yes, the place you started first.
