RIP Arcjet Thrusters. The new names lack...flavor.

"Phased Monopropellant I Hydrazine Boosters" are now known as "Upgraded 1MN Microwarpdrive I"

"Y-T8 Overcharged Hydrocarbon Microwarpdrive" are now known as "Experimental 10MN MicroWarpdrive I"
"Y-S8 Hydrocarbon Afterburners" are now known as "Experimental 10MN Afterburner I"


??

They make even LESS sense than the "current" ones.

Why are the Quad Lif and Lif boosters not either both Prototype or Experimental?

Why are the Catalyzed Cold-Gas Arc Jet and the Cold Gas Arc Jet split between Limited and Experimental?

Same goes for the Monopropellants, why split between Upgraded and Limited?

At least the Hydrocarbons are both "Experimental" and follow a convention.

I hope it's just the patchnotes are incorrect and they've not made it into the game like that.

I'm just waiting for downtime to end so I can check it out, then going to bed. Good thing I don't have to work tomorrow.

The AF buff is going WAY too far but I have a feeling I'll enjoy it anyway.

I love the Miscellaneous section... I remember these gates were quite invisibly large...

I remember warping to an acceleration gate at 20k cloaked, and getting decloaked by it on landing.

I want my Y-T8 OVERCHARGED HYDROCARBON I MICRO-MOTHERFUCKING-WARPDRIVE back. It was the best module name in the game, and now it just sounds incredibly lame. The change doesn't even help anyone.

Also, Trauma is a terrible name for missiles

I'm not fond of that one either. Still, it could have been worse.

We could all be shooting "Ouchie" or "Boo Boo" missiles at each other.

Although, in retrospect, the plethora of bad "He's been Traumatized" puns may well end up being worth it.
