thanks, I've missed this one for some reason. Can anyone edit the pic somehow (contrast... or something, I'm not good at it) to be able to tell what is the speed value and the 2 numbers in the bottom right corner? I presume those 2 show hit points and shield? I want to make a comparison to the stats of the Mosquito at 0:56 in this video:

Nothing says that each empire should have a weapon from each class. In fact, the empires would be more diverse if some had things the others do not. Game balance does not require that all empires have the same type of equipment.

Everyone just needs to wait and see.

The speed is obvious, the number near the lower middle is altitude. The The 2 numbers on the bottom right maybe be remaining armor of the base value, 50/450 (the mossie symbol is mostly red). The two objectives in the top right are defending the base shield generator and defnding the control ________, though it doesn't look like it says console.

Dude I'm asking about the image of the scythe, not about the video. The video is crystal clear.

Dude, the word ALTITUDE is in the Scythe picture. And looking at that, it probably is health and shields, unless they are both damaged.

I know where the altitude is and I didn't ask about it, I asked about the speed value. The upper bar in the lower right corner is shield or armor and the lower bar (the green one) is hit points. Are you saying they show 50/250 on the Scythe image? And yes the shield of the Scythe on that image is damaged.

Well we know it exists, it'd be slightly surprising if it didn't follow the same pattern as the Gauss/Cycler (but then, it is VS)..

It either begins with a 5 or a 3.

The Pulsar has been replaced with the Fleshlight.

Ok it is damaged so I take it it is 3**. By the amount of shield remaining I would say when it is full it's about 600-700 (depending on what those ** are). The full Mosquito shield is 450. Now on the speed that seemed "obvious", I'm not blind but for me it doesn't seem obvious, what number do you see there?

Edit: it looks like 183 but not 100% sure. That's the best I could do with it:

sorry for the OT by the way

I have to be honest, they've been somewhat...deceitful about these weekly updates.

They use Monday just to announce what they'll show us during the week, for one, and we've seen with the weapons week so far that they're not exactly reliable.
