WHERE TO BUY TORPEDOS?

[rubyismycat]

WHY IS IT EVERY EQUIPMENT DOCK HAS NO TORPEDOS WHERE TO BUY THEM?

[gussmed]

Equipment docks do carry torpedoes. They’d on the Torpedo tab.

The only time I’ve seem them be empty is if I’ve purchased all of them.

[rubyismycat]

i have 20 equipment docks i have found so far NOT ONE sells torpedos

[gussmed]

Sounds like you're not clicking on the torpedo tab. It's separate from upgrade items and turrets.

[apellis]

NM. was wrong.

[rubyismycat]

Guss you are the master of assumption please stop assuming im an idiot it makes me very angry

[rubyismycat]

i meant what i said no stations selling torpedos

[Chaoslink]

They don't start selling them until the Naonite sectors. Or at least late Titanium. I don't think the starting areas have them.

[rubyismycat]

oh great so the game pesters me into building a torpedo ship for the tutorial and i cant use it hey but at least it cost me a fortune to build and the crew are costing me money! way to go game way to go! thankyou chaoslink

[Chaoslink]

Yeah, each of the tutorials are entirely optional. If I'm not mistaken though, you should be able to take some free torpedoes from the quest mail message to complete it.

[rubyismycat]

YOU ARE MISTAKEN HE GIVES YOU TORPEDOS after the mission three whole torpedos woopdee dooo then what you spent a fortune on a ship you cant use for days but you still have to pay the crew this is called developers not play testing their own game everything that sucks about this game it is obvious to me is cos the dev hasnt sat down and played his own creation starting with nothing and trying to build an empire if he had then there are so many incredibly annoying thing he would change and yes the tutorial is optional but the DAMN QUESTS still keep poppng up forever more damned annoying

[gussmed]

The way I remember it, the torpedo tutorial didn’t pop up until I had some naonite and could build torpedo launchers. I had no trouble buying torpedoes because I was in the area where they sold torpedoes.

I’m not sure how you ended up with the tutorial before you were in the area you could purchase torpedoes. Maybe you headed back to earlier areas shortly after mining some naonite?

You DO get torpedos during the tutorial. Not a lot, but the sequence is you build a ship with torpedo launchers, you get the quest, you go to the target sector, he gives you torpedoes. You get them both during and after the mission. Not a lot, of course, you really do have to buy torpedoes yourself if you want to use them regularly.

Also, who says you can’t use a ship just because it has torpedo launchers? It’s not like having those disables the rest of the ship. It can still mount turrets and blow up pirates, mine, and salvage. For that matter, you could have added torpedoes to your existing ship.

[Chaoslink]

Not to mention that the requirements of a ship to do said quest shouldn't require that much. You could basically just attach a thruster for rotation and a torpedo tube to that and boom, finished quest.

[rubyismycat]

ok yea thats right guys its my fault that i dont like building garbage ships its also my fault that i normally build ship for one specific function nevermind its also my fault that you cant buy torpedo in the iron and titanium zones of course how silly of me

[Chaoslink]

I mean, if you’re building an entire ship to complete a tutorial sequence you could have just added a part to your ship then removed it, that isn’t really the game’s fault. There’s no real incentive to even complete those quests if you already know how the topic of the quest works.
