They promised these features more than a year ago.

If anything, alpha 2.0 (and the upcoming 2.1) and the things shown on the stream are the first really positive news.

This is the first time they actually showed us some of the results of the progress they kept telling us about all though 2015.

Can anyone think of a legitimate reason why gundams wouldn't exist in the star citizen universe?

Any civilization that has access to this level of technology should be able to create large mechanized suits that mimic the actions of a human body. That seems like it would be much better for fighting in zero gravity then something that barely mimics the functionality of a 20th century atmospheric jet.
>>
>>127731274
Messer gassed the weebs
>>
>>127731274
The reason is that human-sized suits, i.e. power armor, make sense, and will exist.

But there is no advantage whatsoever in making a humanoid-shaped tank, fighter jet or spacecraft.

It's needlessly complex and offers no advantage over a normal spaceship, tank, fighter jet or forklift.

My favorite fan ship is the Northstar from Ephalanx. I'm on a phone and have no pictures of it, but it looks like an aurora upgrade. I also like his Puma light fighter.
>>
>>127770754
Okay so I don't know if it's still the case, but before, the hangars are actually TIERED, going Selfland - Aeroview - Revel and York - Asteroid, meaning if you have, say a Cutlass so you have the asteroid hangar, you also have all the other three.

It's a very silly system.

Thats because it is just an Aurora+

>>127771591
Yes, but I'm buying an Avenger right now and upgrading it to the Delta, thanks to a "gift" a friend made me one year ago. I wanted some clarifications, if I kept the Aeroview or stayed with a Selfland hangar.
>>
>>127771812
you will get the hangar the delta comes with. If its a lower tier hangar, then it downgrades, if its a higher tier hangar, you get all the hangars below it.

Are hangars still going to determine starting location and such? That was what they said 2 years ago. I figure that's changed by now, but I haven't heard anything. I've got both a Cutlass and Carrack, so I can choose whatever.
>>
>>127772624
It shares similarities to the Aurora but I feel like it's still too different to call it the aurora+. Maybe it could be an RSI fighter as a standalone ship.

I suppose nobody had an answer to this?
>>
>>127785713
Actually I got the Reliant for free from skelebro. The 325a is my original kickstarter package that I CCU'd from an Aurora MR when the dog fighting module first hit. The Cutlass is a Blue that isn't even LTI. I can't remember why I bought a Mustang, I don't think THAT is LTI either. So annoyed I didn't get an Archimedes LTI token when I had he chance, maybe I can get a Dragonfly token one day.
>>
>>127786016
The 325a is hands-down the most pay 2 win mech available. I wouldn't have it any other way.

Personally I would recommend going back if I were in your position at the time.

Hangars don't determine starting location, you manually choose a starting location.

Way, WAY more than 40.

i'd say 40 is a good number if they can do significant damage from ramming, but there guns should have next to no effect.

How is my fleet?

I'm contemplating turning the SH to a Gladiator or Freelancer MIS with the CCU's I have just in case the SH gets the nerf bat. I only bought it to protect my Endeavor, because I didn't buy a single module, I plan to get a hangar and have a pocket carrier. And all the dipshits that bought $75 dollar hangars to add onto their Endeavors will rage on the forums if it can't fit "multiple cutlasses" as noted in the description. All I have to do is earn the hangar in-game.
>>
>>127788947

Honestly, I'm either gonna ride on the SH wagon as the space-superiority fighter, or I'll just switch to the MIS so that I have a well-fitted 4-passenger escort to and from my Endeavor.

>>
>>127787213
>Good, so knowing that, are there actual size limits to the hangars?

Currently no, it's an infinite labyrinth where they keep adding more and more room the more ships you have. Doubt they will change that in the game as it would basically punish you for having too many ships and force you to spread your ships across the universe, which doesn't achieve much.

I guess the only reason to choose asteroid is that asteroid looks cool? It's probably a matter of taste and maybe a bit of convenience, The other two hangars are probably planetside which I assume (not read anything to confirm this) means it's possible to just take the elevator and go to the shops. I don't know if asteroid hangars will have shops in that close proximity.
>>
>>127789357
SH would make a better escort. Freelancer as it stands now is just barely able to defend itself from jousting retards, much less be an escort. MIS only gives it the option for fire support with missiles, not dogfighting.
>>
>>127790532
Hangers can have infinite rooms added, but there is apparently a max size for each room. They were talking about how they had to expand the r&y hanger for the Starfarer.
>>
>>127791051
>>127789449

Thanks guys. I think I may just stay with a SH or maybe a Gladiator if I get in a skirmish with a ship as large as my Endeavor.

You think the MIS might even be somewhat more useful than a SH or Gladiator if they trim the window fitting more to have a better view?

Do we know how big the Starfarer is now?
>>
>>127791353
I assumed he was talking about fleet size rather than ship size but that's true. The hangars are supposed to be able to fight the Starfarer and Caterpillar so they're going to be pretty big. I believe the Idris was confirmed as being able to land on planets, but unable to fit in hangars so it'll be on a landing pad or space dock (which is in space, but for this pose "landing on a planet" means storing it somewhere safely so you can go offline without losing it).
>>
>>127789887

Then perhaps he should turn the Freelancer MAX into a Merchantman and melt the Harbinger and get a Super Hornet?

Got any suggestions?

Ok, good point. I have one last question to ask of you:

Which do you think would have more potential cargo space? The Super Hornet switching to the "cargo-box" the F7C has, or the torpedo bay that switches out with a cargo container?

I want to say that torpedoes would take up much more space, but I don't have any figures to run off of to speculate well.

If you got the Starfarer, can't you carry enormous amounts of cargo already? Or is that only for fuel?

I would use the remainder of your money on a throw-away LTI fighter of some sort in case shit hits the fan. But if you are solely bent on trading and hauling, then get the Hull B at least.

Depends on the use. I doubt the MIS would make a good escort on its own withhout friendly fighters to run interference while it hangs back and lobs missiles. It's just too heavy to intercept and dogfight enemies going after a target unless they try to joust like idiots and get chewed up by the 4x S3s (yes they're still that good).

More visibility would be nice but won't make a big difference at this time unless CIG changes the Freelancers handling to be a little more maneuverable.

Light fighter. Honestly what the fan designer should do would be snub fighters and new brands instead of being drawn towards the familiar, it sounds nice and attracts brandfags. But it can shackle us to the ordinary when in our souls we long to see other roles and explore something new.

>>127811136
Well so far, my freelancer is a pile of regret, and from what I'm hearing about the Khartu, it's not too far behind on that.

Apparently chris is saying it's a short range fighter. So from my understanding, It cant do much jumping between systems, and will mostly be carrier bound like the hornet?

>>127811261
I've seen talk about torpedoes having their own catagory and sizes instead of just being large sized missiles.

And no, if you want a light torp bomber CCU the MIS to a Gladiator or upgrade to a Retaliator or Vanguard Harbinger.
>>
>>127811429
As long as it's able to carry some powerful guns the khatu will be fine. The mobility will be great but it needs to actually be able to punch holes in things, there's no point in being able to out-circle-strafe a hornet if you can't get through its shields.

Also the freelancer is shaping up nicely, hopefuly we can bitch at them enough to put the size 4 guns back on it. It'll be one of the best ships for going around doing solo or duo pve stuff to make money.
>>
>>127811429
No ships other than snub fighters are incapable of mounting a jump drive.
>>
>>127811708

Harbinger is listed as having size 3 pylons as its largest.

>>127811429
I'm willing to give the Freelancer more time before giving up, since the first "balamce" pass on it consisted of "oops we put a decimal in the wrong place for mass" and "oops, we don't know how to balance out our larger weapons yet". Wait a bit for CIG to actually do some fine tuning with it or for them to give up and forget about it for months like the 300 series and Cutlass.

If the MIS was able to carry torpedoes, the butthurt from Gladiator, Retaliator, and Harbinger pilots would melt steel beams. Even Constellation owners would get salty about the possibility that a cheeper ship could sink their whale.

Depending on the ship, obviously.

If your Vanguard gets replaced after 20 minutes, theres no massive pain for the loss of a high-end military ship.

Yes, and? These people have been uncovered 3 years ago on RSI. It's hardly news.

If you want a good thing, they don't want it.
You want the game to come out? They want it to take another 10 years.
You want PvP? They don't.
You think CIG should give people LTI? They don't.

Contrarian by nature, and are emotionally invested in the game to the point that they don't care about anything else.

>>
>>127814848
It was both coupled that made it get 'nerfed'.

4 x S4 is unreasonable anyway if the only S4 we currently have is any indication. 3 x turreted S3 is still significant damage for a combat hauler to be dishing out. Don't like it? boo hoo.

>>127814518
Loss should hit your in-game wallet, not your leisure time.
>>
>>127814670
I can't agree with that. Sure it's a little unrealistic, but In my opinion it's unhealthy for the game. Make Equipment insurance not a thing, and have loss of equipment upgrades on death be more of a pain than locking people from playing the game.

If somebody blows up your corvette or frigate, it better take several real-time days to respawn.

but if you lose your two-seater or starter or something like that, you should wake up, walk over to the insurance counter and then get your ship back so you can get started on re-assembling your equipment etc.
>>
>>127815171
If its shorter than that time then its a pointless mechanic.

If they're going to use it, it better have actual relevance.

Not being able to insure all your high-end equipment might work but I doubt they'll go down that road.

>>127814518
Large capital class ships should take a day or more to respawn given they are basically a mobile guild base.

Smaller ships should be pretty much instant unless you're abusing the fuck out of insurance, in which case they start to increase the respawn time and may very well end up at 2 days if you killed yourself like 10 times in a short time.

You misunderstood me, or maybe I was super vague. As the flight mechanics are currently, I'm pretty happy with the game and can only see them improving over time.

Unless liking freelancer makes me an autist automatically.

stars are many colours, and they don't change from system to system because it's still the same galaxy surrounding you. that said the local environment could potentially filter them and create the appearance of different colours, the same way the atmosphere shades the moon.

what the hell station is that? the rings make it look vaguely like olisar but it's way too close to the moon. covalex? I thought it was even further out in the middle of nowhere. the location makes me think kareah but it looks nothing like that.

on the topic of stations being spread out in deep space that actually makes me wonder; is the current spread even possible? the comm arrays for example and the listening post seem too far out to be at any kind of lagrange points, they're just kind of adrift. doesn't seem logistically feasible long term.

>>127884762
why wouldn't they count? they're unique types. comm arrays I guess, it's not like there's really anything to do on them, but cry-astro I could see being fleshed out with a little gas station kiosk type area for purchasing ammo or selling and offloading fuel for starfarer owners etc.

anyway I'm pretty sure your main three are just kitbashes from the same batch of pieces; they're not really 'types' since there's only one of each. It may be easy enough for them to customize every station to that extent. Kareah and I think even Covalex for example have the same rings that Olisar does, just in different number and arrangements.

And don't forget there's also the Gold Horizon prefabs (the currently MIA star marine map) that are essentially kitbashed in-universe, those ones will probably be the most similar from station to station.

BSG mod would be sweet. If someone set up a server where they regularly ran a "campaign" of Galactica trying to survive continuous Cylon assaults there would be a lot of possibilities.

well they've promised modding tools, idk how extensive they'll be but I imagine that kind of thing won't be artificially restricted.

I think the real question there is whether he'll take the hit to his pride and just adopt it into the main game when somebody inevitably makes a better movement system that becomes standard across private servers.

I don't want to count the commarrays as actual stations because the explorable area is so small and the same for all of them, 5 handcrafted comm array types would be great so you don't feel like there is only one type of comm array in the universe.

I said main three because they look and feel like actual space stations where you land and can actually do more stuff than push one button. I hope the shapes will be varied enough too, like in Elite where you have tubes, cubes, rings, etc..

>I hope the shapes will be varied enough too, like in Elite

>>127887150
honestly I'm fine with the UEE having one standard comm array design for how often we'll see and interact with them, hell you could even justify the banu licensing the tech and using the same ones, xi'an at least should be different though.

>varied
>like in Elite
I'm not following. all I've ever seen (admittedly, only on youtube) are a few minor variations on the cube, one with a greenhouse ring, but all with the exact same interior. I'm pretty impressed by the amount of variety we got just in 2.0 and I'll be satisfied if that level of environment diversity extends to the rest of the game.

it really is impressive how much uniqueness they can wring out of one stock asset kit; the three stations all feel very different just by virtue of lighting and layout despite using mostly the same assets.

If I remember correctly in Elite they had the Red ring, the Ring plus solar panel, the classic cube, the nuclear bomb shaped station for internal landings.

Then you had the ISS like stations with plenty of different versions. I haven't played Elite in a long time, maybe I'm imagining more variety than there is, but indeed the most disappointing aspect is that they looked different on the outside but it didn't change shit to what you did, go through hole, land on the right spot, open menu buy and sell stuff, click on leave spaceport, take off, go through hole, done.
That's why I hope for diversity in SC.

Don't know anything about MWO, but given you can buy in game pretty big ships, meant to be manned with more than a handful of people, I would say farming one of them is a hell of a grind.

I remember hearing that Liam Cunningham was playing Captain White of the Stanton, the Idris Class vessel which will feature in SQ42, although it looks like that info has been removed from the RSI main page.

Serkis is almost definitely various Vanduul, but they've been trying to keep it mostly under wraps,

I think they have Jack Huson as the voice of the male Protagonist.

>>127892190
who else is even a big name on that list? we've got Scully and she's the only one I even remember recognizing. We have no idea what here role will be, but I'd guess she'll be in the same boat as Hamil and Rhyes Davies' characters; interactable/potentially romanceable copilots/peers on the ship who's character arcs you can choose to engage and advance or not, in the vein of Mass Effect crew, but apparently with the added spice of their potential to die at any time either in missions or due to story.

I think it's mostly to get an effect out of you, like any interaction with the character becomes special. Oldman is supposed to be one of the best fighter pilots, Captain White (cunningham) would be one of these few captains being okay with flying in Vanduul space like Bishop (gary oldman) so you need that "Oh Shit, it's HIM/HER!" moment and these actors deliver because you know them and they hit your nostalgia softpoint.

Also Scully in these clothes and if she is a pseudo anti Vanduul fanatic would be pretty interesting.

As much as I enjoy the idea, that just sounds like something Chris Roberts made up to fuel his realism fetish and probably won't make it into the game in any meaningful way.

So whats the craic with guns in the game at this point? I seen some short gameplay of a guy fighting on a space station in the new PTU, and he showed off how your character takes a peek into the magazine if you attempt to reload while full which I thought was nifty, but how do they actually feel to use? The game runs on CryEngine so I feel like this is something they should be able to nail quite easily.

Ah, right that makes sense.

So lately I've been interested in the Reclaimer ship from Aegis, I think it's just because whenever I see that piece of concept art with the ship looming out of the darkness with it's floodlights piercing the night I get this awesome image in my head of being on your own floating through a wreckage field and coming around from the back of a destroyed ship to come face to face with a gargantuan Reclaimer shrouded in blackness and then all of it's lights suddenly snap on, lighting you and everything around you up and then the ship makes some crazy scifi sound like the Reapers from Mass Effect.

But I digress. What I want to know is how ships of that size will be handled with the hangar system, since they're almost big enough to be hangers themselves, and some like the Idris and Bengal actually are!

I'm not sure if I would call the Freelancer's awful awful cockpit a "tiny detail".

Its pretty much what you'll be looking at the entire time you're in the ship. Its the most important part of the whole thing.

10FTC Ep.74

9:44 Q: How will you be able to land on an unexplored or uninhabited planet when populated planets bring you in on autopilot?

A: On populated planets it would be more controlled where you would fly through a virtual tunnel to a designated lane and to a landing pad. If you deviate outside that security flight control system would take over and autoland you. Procedurally generated stuff it’ll be kinda open to land where you want.

TL:DR, not scripted, but you have to maintain within a glide slope / landing vector in populated zones or you get remotely shut down. On procedural planets, go wherever you want.

It was literally confirmed by the devs, the only difference is the saber is heavier so it wont maneuver quite as well.
>>
>>127919778
They said if you like flying the Gladius you'll probably like the Sabre.

Its not going to be a Gladius+, because that will just invalidate the ship. Something they won't do. Or at least, they won't do for long after they realize that would be a retarded thing to do.

>The only difference from the Gladius ( a ship that is heavily defined by its manouverability) is that its less manouverable!

>>
>>127920340

We'll see. Could have a significantly larger CS/EM/IR emission.

>>127920363
>but the saber is still going to be a fantastically maneuverable craft

The only thing we've got to base that on is that it was designed to out-turn a heavy fighter.

Thats not fantastically manouverable. Thats average.
>>
>>127920486

I mean its all speculation at this point, I just dont know why we should assume its gonna be worse than a gladius
>>
>>127920963
>I just dont know why we should assume its gonna be worse than a gladius


Its a logical assumption that a ship with better weapons and extremely good stealth is not also going to have manouverability parity with the light fighter that is designed around manouverability

But sabre fags seem to be detached from reality over this point.
>>
>>127921134

Yeah except stealth being a hindrance to performance meme has been debunked repeatedly

Technology advances anon, lighter materials, better thrusters, better efficiency

Just because the gladius is the best they could do at the time doesn't mean thats the case anymore

>>127920486
>We'll see. Could have a significantly larger CS/EM/IR emission.
Kek. That's not going to happen, because the SH is a hornet + 1 seat, + larger power, and using plain better components.

The canopy was mildly changed for second seat because its already fucking huge.

Stealth in space is a joke with the pathetic radar designs and weapon ranges of SC. If the game was missile focused, we could have meaningful stealth.

But its not, it's arcadey long TTK using guns. Any ship not focused on protection and firepower is a joke against competent pilots.
>>

I mean I'm just being a realist anon, the gladius looks really cool, but it already loses to a mustang, its probably going to lose to the saber as well.

The Gladius does not lose to the Mustang at all.

Just that they're not going to go full retard mary sue with it.

Let me ask you this anon, what do you think the differences in performance between the Saber and Gladius will be?

It's not going to be a mary sue, like the gladius it will be fragile, and more lightly armed compared to the hornet
>>
>>127922369
>They lose every time I run into them

Thats anecdotal evidence that says more about you than anything else, anon.

I personally think the Saber will fly with more overshoot and less ability to change its vector. Didn't say it would fly like a bus. Just noticably worse than the Gladius.

if the Gladius isn't lucky enough to have a missile connect, yeah, it can totally lose to a Delta. At least it sort of look like CIG realizes the ship is really screwed over in 2.0 and might do something about it. https://forums.robertsspaceindustries.com/discussion/comment/6213522/#Comment_6213522

If you want a spacecraft that doesnt look like a plane buy anvil anons

the proportions just look weird as it is, its too fat, the cockpit is too small for its current proportions, and the wings look stubby.
>>
>>127924046
Worst Dynamics are the only ones that make spaceplanes, and even then they sometimes make aesthetic ones that look like spaceships more than modern jet fighters, like the Gladius.
>>
>>127924175

Yeah that's why people like them

If you don't like it you shouldn't buy from them, not try to get them to change it.

But the Gladius is basically looks like a futuristic version of a Su-47 Berkut with a helicopter's gun mounted to it.

Except they changed it enough to make it seem like a cool spaceship and not just a copy and pasted plane like the Sabre, Vanguard or the Avenger. All it has in common with the ship you posted is the direction of its wings.

>>127930790

Given the liberal use of slav ))) I'm pretty sure he was implying they aren't very similar.

they kind of share a similar shape from a certain angle but thats where the similarities end.

That said, it not resembling a real life plane isn't exactly a good thing in my book.

I had always read it was inspired by the A-10, and I can kind of see a resemblance in the engine layout and nosegun, but thats about it.

looks pretty true to me. This has obviously been a problem from the start. Hopefully at this point chris has burnt out enough employees and either discovered that he knows fuck all about art direction, or he's actually found some fucking hardasses who won't listen to his bullshit. I feel bad for Travis Day who seemed like a genuinely nice and talented guy under an immense amount of pressure.
>>
>>127935361
agreed. Skelton seems to hide his professionality under a veneer of goofyness. Not a bad strategy.
>>
>>127937735
I think the issue was just a lot of the input coming straight from chris or just being directionless and schitzophrenic. Some ships looked like they were just completely out of different games or mods.

The stuff F42 is pushing out now is actually unified and to a great, recognizable art style and visual standard.

foundry 42 was always great because it was headed by erin ROBERTS who had his own team and had made space games previously. Note the roberts. Presumably Erin has enough experience with chris to be able to deal with his shit.
>>
>>127938653

Erin seems pretty chill, he's probably more up to date on the industry and less about micro-management than Chris.

Just watch: F42 will take on the other ship manufacturers eventually. The only Santa Monica ship close to F42 quality is the Reliant, and that is taking far longer than the Gladius/Sabre.

Not really, anon. The 325A has the ability to target 4 at a time because its got the WillOps targeting suite, its just a software/avionics thing. Standard avionics get you 2 locks.

>>127930865
>In looking over the models of the FPS Marines and Pirates, it should be clear that some are better than others. The difference in quality? Concept. The Heavy Marine and Heavy Pirate had completed concepts that did not change through the building of the model. They are a balanced and polished piece of art as intended by the concept artist. The others? Their concepts changed repeatedly during the model building. They crawled to the finish line as Frankenstein assets, cobbled together by different artists
the heavy marine is probably the worst of the lot though, while the heavy pirate is probably my favorite. all of the 'cobbled together' ones have more appeal to me than one of his gold standards.

wait, that sounds like an upgrade for most ship then, considering you could only lock one target in everything but a 325 as far as I know.

The gladius nose is S2. all missiles suck now, but tempest II's are probably still your best shot. Rattlers have been broken for months now. They no longer deploy their clusters. It's a shame, they were so fun before.
