ANVIL F8C GOD OF WAR [STAR CITIZEN PVP COMBAT]

I’m personally an Arrow pilot, and got I want this ship so badly. I’m definitely gonna be hunting those Devs for the platinum version .

I think the fact that they released this 2 weeks prior to Citcon. We will have a Sq42 announcement at Citcon. I'm calling it now.

That fight with the arrow was a master class in combat.

The Lightning has 2x SIZE 2 shields; its got vanguard shielding

1:55 Ingame, this thing was designed to eat Vanduul light fighter swarms like popcorn. I've flown it. It can certainly do that.

As a cargo / salvage pilot with almost no interest in PvP / PvE, I'm more than happy to let y'all duke it out for this one over the next week. Hopefully Brio's will be a more peaceful place for a while haha

That arrow fight was a real pleasure to watch

Curious to see it fight a scorp with a gunner

"Is this fighter as overpowered as people say?" Short answer: yes, until the next patch

It was always intended to be a space superiority fighter. Not in my hands, but in general. Glad it lives up to its intended design

this was a fun reveal of the F8C, thank you and your team for putting this together. Tempted to get one, very

I like the gold trim MFD's. Nice touch. 👍

This ship has been my favorite concept fighter for a while. A friend of mine hopped in looking for the redeemables and ended up in your server, seems he made it in the video!

Thank you for the quick post, looking forward to watching the video!

Jared is a bad ass in that arrow

That arrow fight was something else. Makes me think that perhaps the F8C isn't as overpowered as it might look on paper. Granted it's still 2v1 but 2 decent light fighters being able to take on a heavy fighter makes sense in my head, and there's NO way if there were two Jaredd's against you that you'd come out on top, or at least one of them would have had to make a huge mistake early on.

The whole reason why the F8 came out? The F7 was getting stomped by heavier Vanduul fighters and the Gladius is really getting long in the tooth and the Navy doesn't want to keep spending credits to get new upgrade blocs for the Gladius(It's the whole reason why they're literally being dumped on the market). I suspect the F8A(The one that most people will get a taste of,in Squadron,then use their voucher to buy in verse) will really be a solid fighter. OP? Probably not. Is it unbeatable? No. But i do think it'll probably get a few balance passes,namely that roll will get adjusted most likely. But with it being a carrier fighter,like the Arrow,Hornet and Gladius,I think it makes a nice progression. When armor becomes more relevant I think the F8 will be more or less in a good spot. It won't be an instant win against crewed larger ships(thanks to armor pen) but it'll be a good fighter muncher.

Just got mine and it's more than lived up to my high expectations. Absolute beast of a fighter.

"Lemme just... fire a couple shots...." Sends wall of laser fire

Awesome content, as always! As a big fan of Anvil myself, I can't wait to fly the F8 myself!
