Descent Bug or Guide Bug

posted on December 9th, 2010, 11:28 pm

The guide says that when the Descent Class vessel is promoted to veteran, it only takes up 2 warp-in slots.  Yet in actuality, it takes up 3 warp-in slots.  This is either intentional with the guide being wrong, or it is accidental with the guide saying how many slots it's supposed to take up.

The way the guide puts it, the Descent class vessel should take up 4 warp-in slots until it reaches two gold bars.  Then it takes up only 3 warp-in slots until promoted to veteran.  Once promoted, it should only take up 2 warp-in slots.

The guide says it should take 1 less slot and 2 less slots at rank 5... I think the guide has the slight mistake.

Yup, of course the guide is wrong Would be odd if it were the other way around...

It clearly states that at rank 4 takes up one less slot, which means it takes up 3 warp-in slots instead of 4.  It also says that rank 5, which is the final rank, takes up 2 less warp-in slots, which is 2 slots instead of 4.  Either the guide is wrong and it's only supposed take up one less slot at maximum rank, or the vessel is misprogrammed and should take up 2 less slots at maximum rank.

Now you're just making stuff up. It only ever said:

Rank 5 gains Battle Bridge: This vessel consumes one slot less of the Warp-In limitation. On Rank 5 takes up 2 less slots

which was changed to...

Rank 5 gains Battle Bridge: This vessel consumes one slot less of the Warp-In limitation.

an hour ago.

Okay, so it was never intended to take up two less slots in the first place.

In the vast majority of cases, the actual game should have priority over the guide if there seem to be conflicts. In some cases, however, lazy Optec just produces bugs
