Mutara nebula and the probe

posted on January 2nd, 2010, 6:03 pm

I noticed that the mutara nebula has no effect on the probe ( first special of the canaveral ). Maybe cause of the fact that the probe dont have a sensor system which can be disabled. A bug or something which should give the Fed a bonus in scouting ?

I consider it a Fed-specific thing. It would make sense for a Federation probe to be shielded from a Nebula so that it works properly, it fits with their nature as explorers.

Maybe ... would make sense ... but who knows

And by the way ... if starfleet engineers are able to shield a small probe from that sensor disabeling effect why not all starfleet ships ?

I doubt it's that easy, everything has it's limits.

Well, think of it like this, its easier to eat half a sandwich than a whole one.

Its easier to shield 3 meter probe, than an 80 meter starship

Maybe the Devs will keep it?

it's a special designed probe that has been under year long development with a casing to resists sensor limiting effects like the one found in the mutara nebula...or whatever i see nothing wrong with that

Well, then, there's your answer Tyler . Choice number 1/3

That's my kind of answer!

I like it too because it gives a more scientific use for the Canaveral than just BLACKOUT BLACKOUT BLACKOUT FTWWWWWWW!
