Explain

>>166032378
You take a mission and it immediately bugs out and is instantly failed. All you can do then is discard it.

>>166031961
most of the time it's 0/0 missions across nine or so factions and then sometimes two missions for two factions and maybe one of them is Empire, and the mission isn't donation or data delivery.

hope it's just shitty luck.

Resource Extraction Site. Check the pastebin. Ship elimination missions can augment your income if you'll be shooting ships of a certain faction anyway, but leave them until you're sure you can do them. Tagging along with system security and landing a few potshots while being careful can net you some good starting money.

CGs are community goals where you everyone contributes to a certain goal - check any mission board for instructions. Payouts are delayed though.

I like how after discussing hair in Star Citizen, Chris makes a small remark on Sandi's hair and goes to touch it, while staying on topic. Sandi then backs off as if she's not even married to the guy.

When can Sandi fuck off of this project and stop fucking other men behind Chris' back? I actually kind of wish she just died in a car accident or something. She contributes nothing to the company, and bringing her onto the company as a co-founder was an obvious fucking mistake. Fuck that cunt. Bless Chris.

At least a female character that don't cater to hollywoodian "look cute and fragile" or "look old and treacherous" if evil.
I still want my crew of bikini blonde bimbo

Other characters are also very nice. Lot of variation in the bone structure without looking unrealistic.
I bet this is their best model or the one they scanned from live person, "no way they are all like that"

why does chris keep allowing sandi to be on camera? she makes it so obvious every time she speaks, and even more so when shes on camera not speaking that she doesnt give a single shit about whats being talked about. shes incapable of on the spot dialog with chris and just looks at him strange when he does something not scripted

shes so bad at acting, but she must be a master of dick handling to keep getting center stage on every video and stream possible

2.) Will take half the company in a divorce.

When SQ42 gets released I want to get some rule 34 porn of Sandis model in game and get Dereck Sm*rt to ram her up the a** p*rn. and D.S. take a huge dump on her chest and post it all over the forums and porn hub. Kinda like the overwatch porn, but with Sandi and Derek giving it to her hard.

the fact that ben isn't dead yet greatly heartens me. The fact that he can remain alive in such a state helps me worry a lot less about my own
weight issues spontaneously killing me.

I've lost 60 pounds in the last three years, which is slow as hell, but I'm still at 240 and still feel like an unhealthy fatass.

Why doesn't Sandi wear a wedding ring? Something really strange about it. I'm not a goon and I don't appreciate their bullying or doxxing but I think maybe there's more to it that it appears.

>>166049872

>>166049869

Weight problems don't really pose a problem until you're at least 40. However, due to Ben being around 40 or so, I'm starting to think he's the exception rather than the rule (i.e.: being kept alive by the will of Jehovah/Yahweh/Allah)

>>166049872

I don't think Sandi really cares for Roberts as a husband, but more of a tool for getting what she wants. Having children with him was something she was willing to do to keep his power in check, and under her control.

Because of these obvious observations, I'm starting to think Chris Roberts is the largest tool in the space sim industry.

don't worry too much about weight unless youre well over 30 and your body is generally going to be going downhill regardless of weight

if youre a short, boney type and you can tell youre visibly fat, yeah ofcourse keep lopsing weight. but if you're like 6'1" and pretty sturdily built 240lbs is gonna be about average. a doctor is still going to look at you and tell you youre obese based on mass and volume

if you can still feel your own ribcage and hip bones at any point you're fine, tell doc to fuck off and get yourself on even a halfassed ketogenic diet. AKA eat fat, body acclimates to fat, begins to prioritize fat over carbs as an energy source, and boom you're now passively burning fat while eating like a piece of shit and literally immune to diabetes and any form of hunger or thyroid related issues due to insulin being almost completely unused in your system.

You can't eat poorly while having such a critical macro balance. You can't just stuff yourself full of carbs and say it's fine because you're eating 10x more fat, it's going to kill you.

>>166051112

You have nothing against Sandi until you hear her shit voice-acting and see her shit mo-cap, because she always wanted fame, but has no skill or desire in acting.

Just wait.

>>166051139
Im aware of how to lose weight, I lost most of what I did in 6 months just by eating more fat protein and fiber, drinking more water and studiously avoiding straight refined carbs. I just got lazy again. I'm 28 so I'm creeping into the range of "I actually need to pay attention to this shit or its gonna give me long term problems."

Well it's because you said eating like a piece of shit and half-assed, and didn't specify staying on fat, you just said prioritizing fat over carbs.

I understand what you're saying, though. I just thought maybe you were trying keto without keeping carbs very low. The last thing you want to do is increase fat while not being in keto.

the latter half is all about how it isn't just reskinned vanduul swarm, as they changed the AI to suit the ship roles and the wave composition was deliberate, with annoying little m50s fucking around and picking at your shields with distortion cannons while the others give you the heavy hits, etc. it was actually interesting and even gave me some things to keep in mind the next time I play it that I didn't know.

well eating a disgusting amount of peanut butter, stuff like bacon, beef, etc amd getting away with it would have been a catastrophic nightmare for people 5-6 years ago still somehow trying to figure out (potentially 10,000 years of human civilization later) how a human being can eat without his health deteriorating

>>166052579
vanduul swarm is unplayable trash where the AI is clearly broken now

pirate swarm is actually impressive and shows that 1: AI knows how to not die in certain ships
2: AI turret functionality is a thing and is so close for use by players it might as well be confirmed for 3.0

so I decided to have a look at those fucking """"sensors"""" and there's definitely something shady about them. they seem to have a giant block that looks exactly like an ammo box, which for some reason needs an access panel and ventilation for hot gasses. also covered in warning labels, which could be typical CIG greebling, or foreshadowing that these are not what they claim to be.

>>166053065
i mean if they "wanted" to give ai crewed turrets to players without actual NPCs or visible crew being a factor, they could have done it in an extremely basic fake way for 2.6

all the ships in pirate swarm and pirate AI in crusader with turrets have their turrets manned, and they don't suck ass at hitting you.

i'm just saying that functional AI manned turrets are in the game and could easily be done for players, and that it's likely only being kept from us because theres no actual NPC characters involved for that function and will be kept from us until theres actual visible characters doing things

really no good reason they couldnt make it so all multicrews for players have their turrets manned by whatever AI is manning pirate turrets

>>166056672
theyre clearly placeholder <objects> that will either be a module of some kind or large tractor beams for keeping little bitch ships like hornets from getting away before you steal their shit and fill their engines with pirate jizz

>>166058710
oh I see what you mean, NPC crew. well there's a lot more to it thatn just having them in the ship, knowing CR they need not only a place to hire them but full interaction including dialog and some UI options for telling them what to do, player follow ai, ground combat ai and a ranking system for their stats, and why not throw some quests their way as well because we're delaying for a couple months to get the rest in as it is.

>>166058953
yeah, the question is will they ever actually serve their mysterious purpose, or end up like the undefined alien tech bubble on the underside of the Freelancer and just be completely forgotten.

>>166058710
>no actual NPC characters involved
yes there is. the ships in pirate swarm are fully manned, not just empty turrets working on their own.

>>166059227
that's what i mean. theyre gonna keep it out of players' hands until theres a means to hire and station your actual human NPC characters in the ship.

AI manned turrets are fully functioning, it's just a design choice keeping that out of your hands

>>166072349
everybody's saying this, but it hasn't changed. what's different? today's was a short episode full of new stuff, same as it has been since they changed to the "gold" format.

>>166072419
They're focusing on a single aspect of the game, instead of things a studio is working on. Today we got pirate swarm, I really don't give a fuck about pirate swarm. I'm interested in seeing behind the scenes of what each studio is working on.

>>166072604
not sure if youre kidding but every ATV can't be grade A top tier hype as fuck news drops

if you're expecting anything other than rehashed 2.6 information / nostalgic dickwaving about how 2.6 was so amazing any time before 3.0 is in countdown mode, idk what to tell you. don't do it.

atv was exactly the same after 2.5 until 2.6 was close

>>166072604
yeah well they can only have so much to show per studio. probably changed it because 3.0 is such a huge undertaking that 3/4 studios will have nothing interesting to show for many months ahead.

>>166072974
I don't need top tier hype as fuck news drops. I literally just said I like seeing behind the scenes shit of what is going on at the individual studios that week. What I don't care about is a 20-30 minute long video what is basically a reskinned version of Vandal swarm.

I mean hell, they even got Ben chiming in during this segment. Who gives a shit what he has to say.

This is not new though. After CitCon, they went a full calendar month before sheepishly throwing a mention about 2.6 in at the end of an ATV. All we got during that time was pipeline videos and the most self aggrandizing bullshit that anyone has ever made aka the Road to Citizencon catastrophe.

The worrisome part is that they decided what was wrong with their content was actually what many consider to be the most valued part of that content. Now, they can focus on any insignificant bullshit they want and not worry about any studio rotations.

I really like Class 4 weapons.

Anaconda. I've got it decently fitted but not all A. Have some multicannons and frags on the sides. I understands ships circling me but I get peppered with accelerator shells as soon as I try to engage anyone. Have to dump shield banks and hope no one else joins the fight.

>>166083534
Have you already tried turning off flight assist? I heard it makes maneuvering larger ships much more precise in fights. Also, maybe rethink your loadout? It seems like asking for trouble to me to equip a slow ship with short ranged weapons. Setting up in a good area with asteroid cover and applying huge lasers to anything flying opposition colours might work out better for you.

>>166083960

I'll see about changing out the frags for something else. I'm trying to get back in the groove of things and was just surprised about meeting all of that resistance with strong weapons. Thanks anon.

>>166095836
If you want a fun loadout try large pulse/burst lasers with the scrambled spectrum modification. It causes random malfunctions if it hits a ships hull.

>>166095836
cannons have THE highest armor piercing value at their respective sizes, making them the best at module sniping

add high yield on top of that and you have internal AoE wrecking havoc in the enemy's internals. I'm not sure about the vulture, but two huge high yield cannons on the corvette are GOAT

the vulture is good at what it does, but all in all it's a pretty boring ship IMO, no matter what you do with it

>>166073039

So, does that mean that the whole "not everyone is working on the current patch, and some are working on features on later patches" is a bunch of bullshit?

They even stated that not everyone was working on 2.6, ergo, 2.6 delay doesnt necessarily delay 3.0 because a significant amount of people are working on 3.0, and not the current.

>>166100860

>>166108050

Yeah just like armor and weapons in other games don't matter, you're still killing mobs over and over right? Why even play video games? Also it doesn't matter about the missions, Elite has the best PVP of any game I've seen for a long time.

Why? Why would there be ANY rng with this system? From a gameplay perspective, do you really want your players to have to tediously and tirelessly search for things like this?

RNG increases grind.

Aren't you learning yet?

Because it's fucking artificial lengthening. How have you not realized this yet? Frontier knows that their game is lacking content, so they introduce content that makes players waste a lot of time. Frontier are not stupid, they are malicious, on purpose. They know what the fuck they're doing.

>>166111916
>>166112292

Do not respond to the false flagger ^

>>166112541
>>166112292
>>166111978
But I can't believe that it's this fucking blatant and terrible.

The fucked up thing is that the end result (the upgrades themselves (and even having to seek Engineers out)) are pretty cool and truly DO add more to most areas of the game. And it wouldn't even be hard to fix this system, either:
>keep the need for resources
>make them more readily available via missions/USS
>gate tiers with ranks in the three main ranks and/or Engineer-provided quests
>instead of using completely blind fucking dice rolls, make it a point allotment system

I think any combination of these changes could improve the entire system. They could have made it a grind that's actually interesting, or at least one that isn't an entirely negative experience.

>>166113676
Absolutely not, but there HAS to be a better way of designing Engineer progression. Because this is the absolute worst.

>>166113790
>I can't believe that it's this fucking blatant and terrible

Anon, their game is literally built around this concept from traveling from place to place to earning ships. They literally designed their game around wasting the player's time.

>>166113971

Yeah let's ignore how you help major and minor factions, along with powerplay, and the fact that most people dont even fly anacondas. Yep, just earning ships.

I don't mean to say that you can't make a good game out of stock-option management, that's up to taste.
But every aspect of those game are made to waste your time more than a Elite Truck Simulator.
Maybe skinner box are so popular because the market are hamster.

Let's wait march and see who was right.

The Delta patching system where you're not downloading gigabytes of data now has an internal build being tested. It's still in the early stages of testing and tweaking, but once it's ready, they'll deploy it internally as it affects them as much as it affects us, and once they're happy with it they'll deliver it out to us. No ETA on it at this time.

If this is true fucking finally.

People have been asking what the MegaMap is. It's not a large map, but rather a very small map that then streams in everything around the player. This allows the transition from singleplayer to multiplayer, level to level without loading screen, and a whole lot more.

The topic of Planet side racing came up and there's nothing official, but Sean talked about wanting players to make their own tracks and maybe giving them beacons or pylons to place to form their own tracks.

Basically just like the past 4 years of community updates. Hardly any released content, but devs talking about "will do", "wanting", "hopefully", "not yet", "in the future", etc.

Hey, what kind of person tries to do what you're trying to do right now?

You're nudging and winking to a crowd walking past you in a busy street.

There is no invisible man at your shoulder laughing at your joke.

You try to be cruel, but it only exposes your own craven dog-heart. :)

all I need to know is whether the procedural tech in the first release will create canyons that can be used for these purposes.

Well that blows out my Feb/March prediction for 3.0. I hope 2.6.1 is bigger than I think it will be.

Does Star Citizen speak to you, /scg/?

Are you fags at least ganking newbies?

I thought this was just predicting the future
but apparently is real.

haha cya next year boys im outta this shit

>>166105396
>>166104089
it really sucks i found that chona was handing out a lot of slavge missions paying up to 6 mil but that pool of cash seemed to have dried up

>>166144602
I remember when SC had full on helmet HUDs for all ships everybody shit on it, now everybody hate on MFDs and say helmet HUD was so wonderful.

>>166146020
That's because you faggots don't know what you want. You should all just shutup and take it up the ass, you'll like it more.

>>166146020
The problem is the implementation. Physical panels are way better, but the way they are made at the moment most of them are unreadable.

>>166129137
bretty sure they just meant they would put the proper guns on hardpoints, a quad combines instead of fixed badgers or something on a connie
basically kitting the ships with functional loadouts for once so things are actually somewhat difficult

>>166147663
Why do you say they're much better? Less information to clutter helmet HUD with?

>>166147663
>>166148197
It would be nice to switch between the two. The Vanguard/Avenger panels are tiny and out of the way, so I can't see what's going on, but the helmet hud is generic and can get in the way a lot.

>>166148197
It's just way cooler. A lot of the appeal of space sims has always been for me the cockpit, feeling like you are inside a flying spaceship with all the panels that get damaged when your ship does, etc. It was my favourite shit when I was 10 and I like it just as much now.

>>166149231
if there's one thing cig is good at, it's making unique faces
these look great- not davos tier but still far better than anything else
besides the dyke hair that is

>all shields in elite recharge at the same rate, regardless of size

no. i dont want to believe this

>>166149548
Dyke hair is probably because military regulations and shit.

>>166146020
The word you're looking for is HMD

none of the ships have a HUD

>>166139889
>All Auroras can now equip a Size 2 missile rack
>All

Guess which little cheap missile boat that was strapping on huge S4s is getting fucked :^)

>>166150147
honestly i imagine it's because rendering full length female hair would rape everyone's computers
and would still look like shit
they'll excuse it as era fashion or military and leave it at that

although wearing a helmet with even shoulder length hair would be a pain in the ass

>>166150521
>rape everyone's computers even more
It's like CIG has some deal with GPU makers
