Guided Missiles & Torpedoes

Guided missiles and heavy seeking torpedoes are joining the arsenal, bringing exciting new options for long-range combat. Fast moving missiles can pursue targets with precision, while larger torpedo systems sacrifice speed for raw destructive power. A variety of ammunition types, coupled with new weapon reloading mechanics, will allow you to swap tactics and munitions mid-fight.

These new weapons use predictive guidance and can be used to strike specific subsystems... but beware of enemy point-defense and countermeasure systems. Powerful as they are, guided weapons aren’t the only combat systems getting an upgrade in Warfare 3.

Countermeasure Flares

Countermeasure Flares will serve as an important strategic defense against seeking weaponry. Deploy them at the right moment to distract incoming missiles and torpedoes, disrupt their guidance, and give your ship a critical opportunity to evade an attack.

EMP Weaponry

The Factorum has a devastating new weapon at its disposal. The new Prototech Microwave Emitter can unleash a powerful burst of radiation, temporarily disabling grids within range. Catch an enemy off guard, create a critical opening in their defenses, shut down a fleeing ship moments before it can jump to safety, or expose hostile boarding crews to a deadly dose of radiation. Used at the right time, this devastating new weapon can completely change the course of an engagement.

Jump Detection

We’re adding a major new PvP system: Jump Detection. This system gives players a new way to find large or heavy ships when they perform long-distance jumps, revealing their exit destination to nearby players, and making them susceptible to interception or pursuit.
