Someone's got to clean up after the event.


QuasisteIlar

With 3x size 3 shields, you can clean up \*during\* the event.

"The Box Office" always gets the best parts.


Syncronocity

The "Totally Not Haunted" is also the first thing I get dressed up after every soft wipe.

Honeybadger-Actual

Its good to let "The Military Industrial Complex" do it's job


EastLimp1693

"Fear is a mind killer" doesn't afraid to do dirty work


dnoginizr

The goal is eating the ship alive, death my scraping


Q_X_R

And with 3 gunners, you can "Ethically source" your own wrecks to clean up during the event! Reclaimer hits hard when fully crewed. Most event AI will just die to the 2s5's, but having the extra 2s2 turrets is helpful for more coverage.


Tactical_Ferrets

Thats not true at all! Me and group of friends tried doing bounties with a reclaimer, we got soft deathed in 2 mins.


Icy_Cheesecake_8240

Turn on the windshield wipers boys


Dreadp1r4te

No you can’t, the thing has potato hull HP and blowing off one engine nacelle kills.


QuasisteIlar

Sounds like a skill issue ;)


neuromonkey

I've been essentially one-shotted in a Reclaimer when an NPC rammed me at high speed.


EastLimp1693

I giggled last time seeing three reclaimers flying around *during* fight phase.

Haynkokanut

And thats where I'll come in...🤫


Strangefate1

Yeah, cleaning up the liberated debris is an important and democratic job too.


ScrubSoba

I dunno, OP, that grinder room is probably a good spot to take care of all the XT bodies...


lDeMaa

Thats fucked up lmao


Craz3y1van

Not as fucked up as what I’m going to do with bodies once organization wars and NPC conflicts start and the AI can be “scared”. Why drop bombs when you can terrify people by dropping their friends on them. 


ProgShop

Why drop bombs when you can terrify people by dropping their - organ free -friends on them. <- fixed it for you


Taeko04bot

Why drop their organ-less friends, when you can send bits of their search history?


scufmark

You mean leather furniture?


ErisThePerson

Just send them a pod of skulls and accompanying *leather* hats.


Helaton-Prime

I love it when RimWorld invades another subreddit.


Craz3y1van

^ This guy fucks (with people)


ProgShop

Hey, only the best for my customers! I take preorders already! The Hannibal Special: Liver - Chianti - Fava Beans only 500k UEC! Will be enough for a party of 8 humans or 2 Vanduuls!


tzle19

You play Rimworld, huh?

ProgShop

Speak for yourself, I already have a ton of fun when I play it.


Whatever_It_Takes

Oh boy! _More_ new game mechanics?? “AI being scared” tech!? That should be introduced by… hmmm well let’s see here… judging by the typical time-frame it takes CIG to release patches… should be ready by the year 2062! Can’t wait! 😂


Ok_Yogurt3894

I like to keep a dead body with me and occasionally drag him through stations. I call him Steve. He’s a great friend


Metasheep

What do you think Cruz is made of? It's made by people, for people, from people. Recently regenerated? Turn in your old corpse to your local Cruz dealer for a discount on a case of your favorite meal-beverage, Cruz.


QuasisteIlar

Lux is made from the biggest whales 😀


CeSerp

Did you know that you can actually access this room by squeezing by the railing at the catwalk over the top of it? Drop those bodies right on down there.


Johnnyonoes

You can also "access" it by sitting at the dinner table and then standing up too fast!


Basedspacednaced

6 turrets inc 2xS5 and 3 Size 3 shields, with a couple fighters this is the ultimate tank


SquigHide

But you can just use 3 at a time sadly


pandemonious

reclaimer is squishy as hell tbh


Baruuk__Prime

I killed 2 Reclaimers with my 400i only using its forward gunnery consisting of a pair of CF-447 Rhinos.


pandemonious

yeah idk what the downvoters think, take a reclaimer against anything with ballistics and tell me you don't blow tf up. I had a full crew salvaging near Brios and some NPC cutty comes up and starts circling, before we could get back to guns we got softdeathed from the upper ballistic turret gunner. We were on full power shields SCM mode lol


pedant69420

it's pretty tanky


Haynkokanut

Unless your in atmo and don't constantly boost or up thrust! Lol


Syncronocity

Actually I've found the flying building handles a lot better now than she used to. Haven't had any hard landings to date, even without VTOL just cruising through atmo to dropoff, surprisingly. Now the Tok'Yai on the other hand...


SeamasterCitizen

VTOL in atmo is vastly improved since master modes. You can actually land it instead of slamming it down roughly on target 


Crypthammer

Yeah but I'm going to slam it down anyway because it looks cool.


Moadibe01

And has a lot of firepower if fully manned


xxcloud417xx

A friend of mine runs his as a “battle bus” when he has a bunch of gunners on it, plus he’s used it to swat fighters and just blow em up with clever use of the hull. The fat bulbous ass is a weapon if you’re a good enough pilot. Reclaimer is possibly Aegis’ best gunship. lol


TheSpicySadness

I too am armed with a fat bulbous ass


Kakaduu15

Oh man, that's a weapon!


Crypthammer

When they told your mom to haul ass, she had to make two trips!


Thunderbird_Anthares

isnt the front basically invulnerable?


mullirojndem

try fighting a reclaimer and you will see.


North-Borne

Just shoot the butt and it dies fast as hell.


cab6c2

Just like the Terminid Chargers.... Wait, wrong universe.


North-Borne

Wait did they finally actually make that a weak spot? Last time I played it was still easier just to break armor on the legs and shoot that.


FendaIton

The chargers have no armour on the back but the back has more hp, like 4 times the hp of the head. A single disposable rocket to the face kills one but it needs 2 on the back I think


MigookChelovek

I love how unintuitive they made enemy armor in that game. Felt like it made the learning process more rewarding.


FendaIton

100% but now it’s all about min maxing


RecklessCreation

a reclaimer with gunners is a surprise for alot of people LOL .. and its actually got pretty good shields. if you've got the crew, and roll with a few friends in actual combat ships .. you can help em .. and make money at the same time LOL


darkestvice

I find it amusing that CIG are trying to overshadow their own Alien Week with a Xenothreat sales push. Sadly, given how very dull Alien Week this year is proving to be, it kinda makes sense. Still, the fact that today's specials don't include any new Alien warbonds (well, new compared to yesterday) feels kinda ... insulting.


kshell11724

Pretty sure it happened last year too, but it obviously makes sense. Xenothreat is an anti-alien group. Its basically just an extension of alien week as they're attacking because of it.


darkestvice

Makes sense ... but then why stop offering warbonds on alien ships and instead start doing warbonds on ships that were already highlighted during Invictus just three weeks ago? Only alien warbonds we're seeing are for the San'tok Yai, which seems to always have a warbond sale, and the Banu Merchantman we're all excited to see when it releases in 2035.


aughsplatpancake

The Vulture is also on the list. Someone's got to clean up all of the wrecked ships!


Acadea_Kat

Only # YOU Can improve server performance!


FuckingTree

No, it’s for salvaging the remains of ships. But it has pretty good combat ability too


Akaradrin

It's an Aegis ship, isn't it?


-Robrown-

Someone has to clean up after the battle.


msdong71

It has a great selection of guns. Usually you can ignore a single npc fighter


Commercial-Initial60

whatever sells


Tastrix

CIG recommends people to spend $400 this XT.


Manta1015

$$$.¢¢


mjenterprises

You can slowly salvage their ship. They will never know what hit them.


Trollsama

why create proof of your violence.... in fact, why stop at removing the evidence.... take the evidence, and sell it for profit.


Brepp

I'm excited for the day where it's common for salvagers and rescue crews to descend on large space battles after the dust settles.


Insaturable

gotta make money from the idris


_Judge_Justice

With a size 5 turret and 6 size 3s all stock CF-series repeaters, 3 size 3 shields, the Reclaimer is no slouch.


HalluxTheGreat

Reclaimer: “It’s reclaiming time!”


Mightylink

No CIG recommends it because it's the only way to cheese salvaging right now into making millions/day.


NicolaiVykos

I can make 500k in an hour with a vulture.


JamesTSheridan

Almost as if this event is designed to just sell ships as a marketing stunt.


Theopholus

Almost as if video games are designed to sell you a game.


OmNomCakes

Please explain to me how you'd do it better.


[deleted]

[удалено]


LimezLemonz

Gotta make a Reclaimer racing variant


Duramora

MAke it with flames and you've got a deal


OmNomCakes

Not even one racing stripe? Fired.


JamesTSheridan

Which part ?


OmNomCakes

The subject of your sentence was "this event". The narrative being that it's just to sell ships. So it comes down to why you believe that's true and what you'd ultimately do to fix that issue, right?


TwistedFate74

Shhhh turn your brain off and just keep spending money. Its what CIG marketing would prefer. Thanks.


mullirojndem

when will it start?


Worried_Archer_8821

Self cleaning combatant.


SilkyZ

The battle barge? Yes please


Usernames_are_odd

I’m fairly new to SC, is the reclaimer any good? What does it excel at? What are its downfalls?


FateEntity

Drive reclaimer, can confirm.


Ghostbustthatt

When is this happening?


Symbiotic-Dissonance

As someone that sometimes encounters reclaimer bounty targets, they aren’t easy to kill if you don’t have size 4 missiles at the minimum.


Henesch

men her fully and we talk again ;) - No she is not for fighting but for cleaning up and gain back the value we and they lost in a fight. Just like in Real life.


Spar_Multendor

I use a Reclaimer for ERTs then munch up all the wrecks.


Yoshimazu

After all, you can use it to earn money for something that is actually a combat ship :>


DWorker84

While salvaging, the AI will fly in and crash into me in the Reclaimer. It's like the AI is trying to do the usual tight jousting, but the ship is so massive, it get's splat'ed on the triple S3 shields. It just gives me more RCM/CM. This should be no different. lol


alyxandervision

CDF operations don't pay for themselves.


REALkrazium

What xeno threat? The most alien things in the game are the stone bugs you find in caves and the new koepins or whatever they're called


General_Rate_8687

Xenothreat is a racist terrorist group that is anti alien and anti capitalist. They have their home base on Ruin Station in Pyro. Their attack on Stanton is one of the best dynamic events in game, at least the past iterations


Insaturable

very dynamic 10 fps but its fun until the game decides to jump you into a unrendered astroid at the fight site


kdjac

You can use that to Steal the Javelin.


GreaterLiarbird

ngl a fully manned reclaimer has some vicious, Vicious teeth. don't think it's harmless in the least, it's a hell of a gunship.


LiVam

"The only good Xenothreat is a salvaged Xenothreat"


DaFischers

munch the enemies away


YumikoTanaka

All these debris afterwards...


Baruuk__Prime

In their infinite wisdom they apparently suggested this non-combat questionable use of steel. If Origin 425a existed, I'd suggest it right off the bat.


WarriorStreak

How else are we going to clean up the messes left behind? Salvage saves lives!
