Few question reguarding GH2

[jocan]

greetings,

So far i LOVE this havent played much but i love it thats it. I stumbled upon few item that make me think.. Boarding Claw wich is a weapon, can i really board ship in this game? actualy weaken, gain access to it blow ppl off inside it take over etc?

I saw a thread about ship mecanic but didnt have the gut to maybe wake up a dead horse. I would like to know if they are inside ( so far i only saw the ship in the home system wich was empty of anything exept few bots and some goodies.

Boarding claws are currently just pretty decent arm armor with a high DC melee weapon stuck in them. They're good for knocking over doors while keeping two good ranged weapons in your hands. I recommend 'em for small arms users, regardless as to if they actually have close combat skill.  

That is, however, all they are. There's no ship-boarding mechanic implemented at the moment. You do get a mission or two on ships, in which you can use the claw on people, doors, and walls, but that's about it.

As for ships, they're not in (yet). Boss H has mentioned that they're intended at some point in the future, but currently all ships amount to is the occasional group of set pieces in a few missions.

cant wait to see ships in with all what he said on the ship mecanic in his thread

I one day hope to see PCs being sent out into the void, having to swim through space to hit a cruiser as it blasts through the void, finding a way inside (codebreaking, smashing open the hull, explosives, convincing someone on the inside to help, having a pre-prepared mole ready to let you in, etc) with different outcomes based on how you get in, heists, mutinies, boarding actions, demolitions, etc etc.

I've never seen a game do a decent, playable, ship to ship boarding action. I yearn for it, but it never happens. If the devs can hear me, make this your priority!
