Hi all,

As part of the ongoing development of vehicle systems, particularly with Resource Network and Engineering gameplay on the horizon, we've taken the opportunity to look across all our current vehicles ingame and revisit some of them in terms of both default item size and quantity.Reviewing both player feedback as well as analytics on usage and performance it was clear some ships/vehicles were underperforming and needed adjustment. Some vehicles were adjusted to bring them in line with others in their class to ensure competitiveness and some were adjusted because they simply had a abundance of power output that wasnt necessary anymore.

You may have noticed recent vehicle promotions and releases have strayed away from the typical max 1-2 Power Plants/Coolers/Shield Generators to higher numbers such as the Zeus and Retaliator having 4-6 Shield Generators for example and these updates will roll out similar changes across other ships and vehicles.

In addition to the changes below you can also expect handling & health changes to some vehicles to make sure they do not stray too far from their intended design behaviour, the Redeemer for example will get a buff in flight handling to compensate for the reduced shields and weaponry.

The following are the new default sizes/amounts for the specified item types per ship, e.g if something now says "1x S2 Powerplant" that means it now only has a single S2 Power Plant rather than gaining an additional S2 on top of its current Live loadout. Weapon changes are specifically listed for the relevant hardpoints.
