NMS has nothing in common with SC or E:D except that it is set in space. SC and E:D are both First person Space Combat, Trading, Transport and exploration sims. NMS is not. And beside that, this isn't "space sim general" this is E:D/SC general. You do not getto just tack shit on because you want other games thread to to float your lack of players. You said yourself, NMS doesn't have a playerbase, and you don;t get to just demand access to our space because you don't want to keep your own open. Thats nigger tier. This is a defined general, NMS is not part of the definition. If you want to make "space games no one plays" general go right ahead.

Thats bullshit that you keep spewing, but repeating it doesn't make it true. This is not "whatever this faggot feel like talking about today" general. It's E:D/SC general. Games that are not E:D or SC do not belong here.

>newfag.

>>186504027
>cant afford.
Pic related, I don't spend money on shitty games, I spend money on things I either know to be good, or hope eventually will be good. NMS is just shitty coattail rider space game #28265, its whole schtick is being a half assed substitute to play because SC doesn't exist to blow it out of the water yet.

>>186504809
I have other games, that are not shit, to kill time on, I have work to do in real life to consume my hours as well. I play rising storm a lot, It is a good game and was worth the $22.50 I spent on it.
I refused to ever buy E:D because of the shittery in these very threads in the early days by E:D shills. I refused to buy NMS back when it was first funded because It was an obviously bandwagon jumper, I refused to buy it at launched because It sucked and there was no game. I refuse to buy it now because it still sucks and will never reach the point of not sucking. SC will be out before NMS is anything but a shit tier second rate game. Theres a hundred other games just like it in various settings, it's a phone game in the PC game world.
>>
>>186505172
There are many many people telling you to fuck off dude, theres like at least 4 telling you to fuck off right now. Everytime you bring this up you get told to fuck off. Get the message. This is not where NMS belongs, you are attempting to hijack a thread because your topic cannot sustain its own, you have even said that yourself.

If you want an NMS thread, go make it, keep it bumped, maybe people will show, maybe not, If there are so many of you wanting it, what stops you from doing that?
>>
Please stop posting NMS. The thread will die today.

>The team finished all pre-polish and optimization work on the exterior truck-stop pieces and have moved on to finish the interior. They are currently working on the main hub, based off concepts from art direction, developing additional pieces to add more character to the truck-stop, and completing a first pass on the side shops and corridors. Platinum Bay landing services is having its own building set made, so it looks more distinctive; and an Admin office has been created so players have a location to drop off mission related packages. The team blocked out an observation room facing the landings pads, so players can watch ships take off and land from the interior of the station.

From the June monthly report. Considering how long they've been working on the surface outposts it's probably gonna be a while until the stations are done. I wouldn't expect it for 3.0, but then again, that won't be out until like October so maybe Chris will delay the patch by a few more weeks to get them in there.
>>
>>186506361
Yes please. If you faggots think your shilling is keeping this alive you're delusional.

Gamescom in a week, that round of bullshit and hype-kikery will keep us going for a couple months at least.

As I've said before if the E:D dads and the NMS shills wanna go make a thread to diddle each other in thats fine, but this is not that thread. And to be perfectly honest I don't think the E:D crowd wants you either so you're probably s.o.l there too.

Maybe you should just fuck off back to /v/ where you belong. Make NMS threads there and let the "trolls" and console children bump them for you.

You're damned right. This place is valuable even in its current state, because there is nowhere else. I don't want to see it get further diluted to the point where its no longer a useful forum.
SC and E:D are compatible roommates in a two bedroom apartment, and you're a third guy who neither of us knows or likes, trying to barge in the front door and demanding to sleep on our couch use our shower and eat our food becasue were all from the same town and thus are pretty much brother anyway.

With the current size of the moons/planets I'd be satisfied with one or two solar system to be honest.

adding topics to a conversation shits up the conversation.
This conversation is about SC and E:D, its will be more complicated to talk about SC and E:D if we also have to sift out the posts of another game. This is already an occasional issue with just two games, conversation get derailed now and then because someone thought the current topic was the other game and responded accordingly. Three games would make this happen a lot more, and the extra information needed to prevent this would complicate posting. This is literal my /vg/ exists.

So we don't do it. Just because you want a thing doesn't mean you get it. You are throwing a tantrum and refuse to accept rejection and drop the idea. You are forcing a running argument because you think if you argue long enough the other side will tire of the conflict and give you what you want.

Something is gained though. We have a thread. Which is more than SC or ED could ever expect even in the same thread together.

Don't play the game, idgaf. But don't act like SC and ED are good enough to sustain a thread, because the last 2 months disagree with you.

The question isn't whether it will be completed, they certainly hired enough talent to do so. I do wonder if the community is burned out by the time it releases though and the "oh, it's the game that took X years while selling digital spaceships" reputation might prevent people from buying it then.

It keeps rising from the grave, and coherence is more important than 100% uptime.

>something is gained.
For you and you alone, you get to ride a general that is more capable of sustaining itself than NMS. You get a thread that you want without doing the things that must be done to keep a thread alive. You get to bandwagon on someone else's momentum, limited as it is. Hey would you look at that, just like the game you're shilling. Meanwhile the long running 2 game general has to bear the cost of your gain while gaining nothing. NMS is not going to improve the thread. It will make it worse than it is now.

Your gain, our loss. This is a voluntary union, you have no right to demand inclusion and your inclusion costs us and benefits only you.

I am simply defending what exists and works well. I don't like E:D, I do think that at some undefined point in the future the generals will split again. What I will always oppose it the constant demands to add more games to the general just because someone here has gotten into some other vaguely space flavor vidya. The merge between SCG and EDG was mutually beneficial and minimally controversial, even though there is a long history of trolling and shitposting between the generals.

The same is not the case here, this is one or maybe two people demanding that the game they are playing currently be included on the sole grounds that they want to talk about(shill) it in this thread. NMS has nothing to do with SC or E:D its as a much a survival game as anything else, has more in common with subnautica. It's not about defending or culting SC its about keeping the /vg/ thread a /vg/ thread, Meaning a thread with a narrow focus on a specific topic and not letting it slide into /v/ tier incoherence.

That is cognitive dissonance, anon. This thread dies constantly without being bumped and the only real discussion we have had in months is about NMS.
This general is dying. If it is going to die, then fine. Don't shit on the people trying to keep it going since none of the games here is good enough to survive on their own.

SC and E:D Merged. Sometimes E:D is ded and SCG keeps it going, sometimes E:D leads becasue theres nothing to talk about in SC. It flows back and forth. Neither game carries the other, for the time being neither games general survives the night without the other.

Being an SC backer does not entitle you to include whatever it is that you want to discuss this week that isn't SC in the SC thread.
Make your own thread. Why is that so unreasonable to you? Why are you unwilling to make your own thread? Why do you think you have the right to force what you want on to what other people have made?

Well the purpose of the general is to have a quality discussion not just for a general to exist at any cost. Crywolfing won't change anything, if there's nothing to discuss or no one to participate in the discussion then the general is not needed.

we've been waiting for you to fuck off with your off topic shit. When you had the nerve to demand you be added to the OP without even going to the effort of making it yourself, I made the new Op with you specifically excluded.

I have been here all along. Been through weeks and weeks of you trying to shill NMS into the general. Been here for years of people trying to shill other games in too. Over and over you or others like you have demanded that we include your interest in our thread which does no include it on the sole grounds that you want it. That is not grounds for inclusion. When are you going to get the message. Your princess is in another castle Mario. This is neither NMS general nor "Generic Space Games general" no "Surival Games in a Sci-Fi setting that sorta includes space ships general".

This is the Dual Game Elite:Dangerous/Star Citizen general. That's it. Other games belong in other threads and are offtopic.

To be honest I hope they dont change the shape much, I like it. It could either get smaller, use its space more efficiently and fit more into a "BMW/Astin Martin-flashy sports car" niche or get bigger More roomy, with more amenities to fill the "Mercedes/Rolls-Royce-Luxury car" niche, but I do agree that the scale is off. Its too large and bulky, with too much internal spaces to be taken seriously as a performance hull and too small and cramped to be a real luxury hull.

I own a 350r so this actually rather important to me. If the 300 rework is very good I might keep it, but If not it's getting CCU'd.
TFW I got my 350R+LTI Lightspeed package for $40 from a friend who lost patience after spending $135 and just wanted to cash out

Hilariously, >>186506971 and >>186508040
are both me. I'm not agitating for E:D to leave, as Ive said, at some point, when SC is a game and E:D is very dead, I imagine the generals will split. I'm not pressing for that I'm saying I assume thats what will happen eventually.

What I was getting at is that IF the E:D people here want to split from SC and Pair off with NMS instead they are of course free to do so. No one is bound to keep the dual thread together, we do it because it is mutually beneficial and agreeable. Like I also said I don't think the E:D people want anything to do with NMS shill than I do.

There was some discussion either last thread or the one before of an E:D/MNSg, which seemed to have some interest, significantly more interest than adding a third game to this general. I was simply saying that I did not object to that idea, as there is nothing more than mutual agreement binding SCG and EDG and such agreement can be disolved as easily as they were made.

Hate the 85x passionately, so I'm not holding out much hope for the 300 rework, I'm just gonna hold onto it until I see enough to know if want or do not want.

The CCU to a Freelancer DUR is $0, my very first pledge was a lancer but that lancer is a StarG now and I'm kinda inclined to get a lancer back.

The 85x looks like a toy. Way too bulbous. I really hope they find a way to make ships with more aggressive silhouette with that visual style.

I like the whole "engines on gimbaled gantries" look and the maneuverability that might have offered. But I'm not so attached to it that I'd trade my bulk freighter away.

I do mourn the loss of "MISC = Articulated engines" being replace by bi-directional Xi-an Ayylmao engines. How ever this is all at least somewhat compensated for by the fact the the hull series are now going to be gigantic *hundreds of meters long* perfectly formed phallus ships now when folded. I will at least once and probably more than once. Use my Cock-E to ram-trigger sjws and others who would be disturbed by such things. Maybe I can paint it fleshtone, with an angry red nose and name it two shades darker.
The new engine pod looks kinda like a nutsack on a real cold day.

>>186516886
Harold is better than a 300i for sure man. It will have a specialized role to fill and will be one of only a couple options in the role. The 300i is a generalist with the Capabilities of a cheap ship but the cost of a more expensive one. The Avenger Titan and Aurora LN both shit on it in terms of everything but speed and flash.

IMO the only 300s worth having are:
The 315P as a long range, jump capable, low profile runabout or long range scout.
The 350R for Gotta go fast value or bling.

The 300i is just totally outclassed at its price point and the 325a is a BMW with missile launchers strapped to it. the SC equivalent of a "Bond Car" but without all the cool gadgetry.

Meanwhile Harold, as I've said before Is basically Sam Fisher's personal NEET camper. "Data Runner" is a nebulous term without clear definition, but with all those sensor arrays and computers and data management tools, combined with bed and other amenities means it will make a top tier ELINT platform, useful for spying, infiltration and other cloak and dagger type stuff. Not "electronic warfare" in the jamming and spoofing sense, but information warfare in the hacking, eavesdropping and data theft sense. RIP asymetry though, I traded mine in when they made it all lumpy. I only own ships I like, aesthetically and in terms of role, actual stats and minmaxing are less important to me.

So trade it for a Cutblack, its only like $15, and the cutlass is gonna go up in price soonish, gaining you a little more trade value on top. It'll have the same internal aesthetics as the Cat and Herald, but a more generalist focus.

MMOs cant do offline worlds, because huge amounts of behind the scenes number crunching is done server side. You're client is a tiny part of a much larger program and your PC simply doesnt have the juice to run the server.

Aerodynamics in Atmo are mitigated by your shields. The same way we can have lumpy ass ships dropping into atmo at high velocity without burning up, be can have scanner arrays deployed in atmo without being torn off. I image if you go too fast with them deployed they'll take damage, the same way the hull has a max safe in atmo speed, based on atmo density, hull aerodynamics and shield strength. Which is why many combat ships are spaceplanes, so they can fly faster in atmo and engage it trans atmospheric combat at high velocities without burning up as soon as they lose shields.

I still wanna know how they're gonna handle ejection in atmo.
No word whatsoever on like, parachutes, grav chutes, inertial anchors or anything like that.

SO whats the "big reveal" gonna be at gamescom besides the third sale of 3.0?

They claimed to have something new, very big in a physical sense to show off, so maybe some cap ship we haven't seen yet? I may be setting myself up for dissappointment but in all this time theres gotta be something actually new they're holding on to, because if its just another recut of stuff we first saw more than a year ago and still can't play with its gonna be a shitstorm, and they've gotta know that at this point. A blind man could see the boil over that is happening in the community. Even reddit is posting lots of negative comments, but more telling is that those comments are getting voted and the more blatent cult posts are getting pushed down.

Optimistic me says its first look at a new UEE cap, like a cruiser or something. Pessimistic me says its a completed truck stop or a shubin mining station. Realistic me says its a closer look at either the Mauler Cruiser or Kingship.
Could also be the Orion.

Also why does ATV not have cool shit like WEBM related lately. wtf. Every time they put something like that in an ATV it was a big shot of confidence on the level of Citcon and Gamsecom hype.

400/435 bux for a spess shep with 2 variants.
I'd be surprised if that's gonna be the 600 jump as I imagine they would charge 600 bux for that like they're chargin' 890 bux for the 890 jump.

No disrespect to SC backers, but I believe it's something of an open secret that with the exception of (((CRoberts))) and his immediate associates, the (((employees))) of (((RSI))) are paid actors and the stills/videos of the game and its development are in fact lightly-doctored stock assets.

Furthermore, even a novice forensic accountant could tell you that given what is publicly known regarding (((RSI's finances))), it's fairly obvious that the SC campaign is being used as a vehicle to launder money that was misappropriated in the aftermath of the 2015 Bulgarian gas crisis.

Note that (((Roberts'))) involvement with the (((Bulgarians))) dates back to the early 2000s and that Roberts acknowledged as early as 2003, during a sworn deposition, that "(((he))) didn't run this (((establishment))), but that (((he had))) an understanding with the (((people))) who did," in this case, (((Bulgarian))) organized crime.

I think the facts speak for themselves.

The problem with 3.0 is that it's effectively the release of Star Citizen. 3.0 is the minimum viable product, though it didn't had to be. Everything that comes after will come in small content patches. One year and a half in the making and man did they hype this up.

The pressure must be immense on CIG, they absolutely cannot fuck up this one. I'm sure it'll be fun, but I don't expect for content to come pouring in after 3.0 releases. I don't think we'll ever breach 20/25 players and 30fps either.

They'll never stop selling ships. They said they would at the beginning, but they're no way the (((vp of marketing))) will end a money-making gig this lucrative.

Nah, they will have to as soon as UEC comes online and aUEC is gone for good. The whole reason to sell currency and nothing else is to peg the minimum value of in game currency so the game economy doesn't hyperinflate. Everything in this game is a money sink to take it all back.

You get more of a challenge facing star rated pirates or bounties at the start of the game. The only combat tactic is watching for your weapon overheat, shield and stick to the ships tail. Theres still a lot to be done in terms of combat though.

Nothing of the sort. Make sure you have a good system with at least a barren planet rich in plutonium and thamium (these usually have no athmosphere). The system should have at least 5 planets including one or two moons. Either yellow or red star.

No, no, that's only if you believe the dad admiral who think you'll need 5 players of your family to crew a Starfarer. The game is built to include 90% NPC, it include npc-crew, Christ ranted about having social interaction with them.
The multicrew feature grow out of a way to bring friends into the same spaceship and keep them busy.

Just so you know: they said you'll need npc to have a player teleport in your ship taking his place.
I wouldn't be surprised if NPC became a commodity for orgs-play. A continuous money sink for the ability to respawn into any ship +cannon fodder (hell, they intend us to carry food for crews, complete match)

If you really need to early game farm, just farm emeril and gold.

If your ship has a laser beam you can shoot at resource deposits to farm it faster without getting out of your ship, just bring plenty of fuel.

I got about 200k worth of gold in about 5-10 minutes using my ship.

Just wait till you get a base, the farmer you hire will genetically engineer you some plants that literally fruits animal shit.
Also its supper important for mid-game farming as a component in crafting lube, the most valuable commodity you can farm per hour. I have a set up that produces almost 3,000,000 units every 20 or 30 minuets; I explore a solar system, teleport back to base craft 4 living glass and sell it in the next system.

>>186572831
Would you reccomend getting a ground base ASAP or wait until I get a mobile freighter base?
>>
>>186572992
If you goal is getting money, which you will need to get a freighter, I would say ground base first. If you set up shop on a frozen or irradiated world you will be able to grow frostwort or gamma root out side respectively which is a savings. Also you need to go through the "story" quest for each of the base NPCs to unlock the crafting recipes you will need to build stuff for your freighter.

I don't have a freighter yet, I am waiting to find a cool model. That said I do know that there is the lower docking bay, the forward bridge area and then there is an section aft of the bridge where you get to do your custom building. So the building is designated to one area. As for making it homely there are a lot of krimskrams that you unlock in base building; beds, chairs, desks, banners, boxes, consoles lights, etc. For reference you can use a lot of those props you see in alien outposts. Pic related is my money printer.

"The next concept ship sale will launch on August 25th, 2017 during the Gamescom Presentation. There will be two variants for introductory prices of $400 and $435 respectively. They will have LTI."

Well, know we know it's the Origin 600i they're selling for gamescom. And that CIG's needlessly greedy ship jpg price inflation has reached the point where a constellation sized ship costs 400 bucks now.
>>
>>186580993
Dang, that makes sense.
>>
>>186581196
I couldn't be more unexcited to see another ship. It isn't anything new role-wise. Visual style of Origins is now kinda shit after the 85x. 400$ is absurd for something constellation size.

I'm sure it'll sell, and push the funding over another milestone. But for fuck's sake I'd rather see new mechanics than new ships at this point.
>>
>>186583824
Remember when the Constellation Phoenix came out and shitters on RSI were convinced that they purchased a murderboat that's gonna win against everything else in combat? I wonder if if will be the same with the 600.

Every new ship is advertised as an OP murderboat.

And you can't stop retards from theorycrafting. Hell, even in this general people are saying the new cutlass is the best ship in the game while it's not even out yet.

not best ship, best deal.
Best generalist for its cost.
Its outclassed in combat by a hornet. Outclassed in Cargo by a Lancer, outclassed in agility by probably everything its size.

But its better armed than a lancer while still having significant cargo, Has more Cargo than a Hornet while still being quite well armed.
Its a very solid "do it all" choice and compared to Other ships that offer similar capability, its cheap. I suspect it will be somewhat fragile, given drakes reputation. Either weak shields, minimal armoring, or both, and that will be its trade-off for for being so flexible.

Questionable. The Lancer has 4 gimbaled S3s and 2 S2s on the turret, Cutlass has S3s on the turret but the 4 S3s on the body are fixed.
We don't know what kind of missiles it has, but the Lancer has 2 S4 and 2 S3 hardpoints, which is quite a lot.

>>186589560
currently the cutless has 2xS4 pylons but that's getting changed in the update. It might end up with more missiles but on a custom pylon rack that limits it's actual missile sizes.

The Blue may or may not get additional missile racks, no one knows because CIG refuses to say anything even though they're already working of the Blue's update.

only if turret slaving actually makes it into the game... which I really expect CIG to eventually ditch for the sake of their precious fucking vision of crewed WWII turrets
>>
>>186595068
Automatic turrets have been confirmed for eons, and we got video of an AI turret in action in an ATV like a few weeks ago
>>
>>186595568
Automatic implies that it uses its own fire control logic. What I think the other anon meant was direct control joined with your main gun gimbals.
>>
>>186595068
Shortly after the Hurricane sale some dev, it might have been "skillcheck" Sherman, talked about turret slaving. He said that they won't be doing that in the near future because they're still figuring out how turrets are supposed to work when controlled by a player.
He also said that at some point they'll look into making modules you can slot into a turret that will slave it to the pilot, but it's gonna have some sort of drawback like increased energy drain or whatever.
>>
>>186595568
CIG has also decided manned turrets are their own special slots rather than really big ass hard points now, so you likely will only be able to add those ai turrets to certain ships.

I really don't think you understand the raging hardon they have for those fucking stupid manned turrets, they will drive every other aspect of the game into the ground if need be to force them on us.
>>
>>186596708
and that sounds exactly like dev speak "we're going to say we're just putting this feature off for now, when really we just don't want to deal with a riot by flat out saying it's never happening"

A year from now, they will be saying turret slaving isn't happening and was never going to happen, and you're just wrong if you remember them saying otherwise.

This thread is more of a coping mechanism than advice area. Best thing to do would be to try a few different things and settle on something you can do for a long time.

Before I made my money, I would do undermining for Hudson in powerplay. I would go to a Duval controlled system that was being undermined and interdict cargo npcs and blow them up before the authorities responded. It can get tricky once your bounty is large enough for the authorities to immediately jump in after you interdict one, but you can focus the cargo ship down, high wake out, jump back in, and repeat. You can also collect bounties for all the factions jumping you while you undermine and cash them in at a nearby friendly system.

No disrespect for ED, SC have its own case, but I simply can't take seriously most ED ship. It might fit the old polygonal design but was it really worth it?

The Adder and eagle feel like remnant of old cheesy space opera
Everything imperial feel like forced variation of engine-wing layout (Clipper/Courrier)
Everything federal are box that don't even look simple&practical
And the rest of the ships simply don't have enough variety since they all depend of a clean cockpit.

The equivalent in SC is the current i300 old mechanical look, the M50 look I'm a racer (the Razer at least look sophisticated race car), the old Hornet with comically large intake, the curled wing is still a bother. the Eclipse is trying too hard and should have been a literal B21.
The worst may be the Avenger, but well, I'm ok with one cheesy police ship just for the sake of having a reference to the past
Oh and there's the Terrapin "I'm the turtle shaped turtle named turtle you'll have to escort back to base!"
screencap that one, my mind will be blown if we don't do that

I thought every ship you find via station was supposed to be an upgrade(no matter how small). I just flew down to the planet in my A-Class only to find a C-class waiting for me.

no,only wrecks are always suppose to be slight upgrades. it would be silly if every ship that lands at a station was suddenly S grade with 30-40 slots, just because you're in an s grade ship. And honestly once you got something with enough slots to work with and that you like the look of you're better off keeping it and just ignoring stats.

I made the mistake of ditching my awesome looking little S grade fighter for this big ugly alien duck thing just because it literally had double the stats in every category.

I don't know what's wrong then. Aside from the ones generated from the awakening questline, all the wrecks I've found have been at least comparable to the ship I had at the time.

shit, forgot to reread myself.
I mean, clearly they don't follow SC's strut-pit immersion, this isn't hard.
But they wanted large VR view for all ships, from the outside it make almost all ship look the same size.
The same might still have happened to SC if they stick with concept-art, plus the size change.

>>186662486
The number of beta tester would bother them more than it would help.
They would get spammed 50 time the same bugs which wouldn't have been fixed unless you downloaded the new 100gig version.
Public testing is better once the game have gone beyond that phase, when the game work fine but you want to know if people liked you making their 300$ unique-snowflake ship into a mook ship.

I've probably been corrupted by SC fidelity but to me most of those >>186661764 ship look like space shuttle or cargo shuttle, it doesn't help that all weapons retract inside even for lore reason.
Never played ED but the Cobra, Python, Asp, everything with angle are the one inspiring an armored military look.

The most ED-like jpeg of Star Citizen would be the 890 jump and Polaris (cheese edge)
For other it's hard not to guess what they are meant for, it help they are all based on some reference.
And I wonder what it would be if SC got around the width limitation. You would get inhabitable flying wing or brick that fly sideway.

Id does a portion of the tasks of what the land base provides and allows you to own several ships (the main reason people buy them I think).

>>186668842

Actually, now that I think about it, once you have made the exocraft quests maybe it isnt such a bad idea to move your base to a freighter. That way you can just travel freely without needing to dismantle everything.

You just summon the damn thing wherever you need it. I am assuming it changes systems along with you and that you can build the exocraft pad on the ground with a specialist on board (I think its possible once quests are finished).

Do missions and gain money

Once you have money, fit a better shield, better engines and better weapons onto your sidewinder (gimballed pulse isn't bad for starters).

Go to a Navigation beacon or a Low Resource Extraction point, and assist the cops in shooting criminals (make sure it says the target is 'Wanted' before you do, or you'll be next on the list) and make EZ money.

Like >>186602381 said, don't buy an adder or eagle or whatever because you have just enough money; you'll die and be at square one if you can't at least pay the insurance when you do get blown up (which WILL happen until you get good).

All the greatest fags use farms these days. Liquid something material (look up on reddit) or some kind of explosive.

The top priority is to build aa land baase, get the exocrafts (at least aup to the nomad which is the best) and then mine emeril/gold and start your way there.

From there you either purchase a hauler (ship with good slots) and find good trade routes or do farms. All this with red containers on the base to spam warp cells (build until they get you this).

Game is easy, it only needs time.

It just takes time, they have a really low spawn rate. That said I think that the game creates a list of ships seeds that it will spawn when you load into a solar system. If you hang around long enough you start seeing almost the exact same ships multiple times. So the best way is to probably give it a few minuets in every system and move on to the next one and eventually you will find one organically. I have seen two unique exotics in ~70 hours or play according to steam, but that number is a little high because of afk time, and both of those times were in the last 20 hours or so there might be a progression component too. If you are really bent on getting one now, you could just reload every 10 minuets are so to force the game to create new ships.
Pic related is evidence of the almost the same ship spawning, the one of the right landed a few minuets after I bought the one on the left, they had identical models only slightly different stats, and different prices.

Is Elite fun yet and I don't mean autismal fun.
>>
>>186692547
FDL is the better murderboat, but the Python is a far superior general purpose ship. It depends on what you're doing, honestly. If you're just doing PVE stuff, as in murdering NPCs I'd stick with the FDL.

For mixed activities I'd go with the Python. It's generally considered to be the most capable multi purpose ship that uses a medium landing pad. You can fit it to do pretty much anything.

They're two very different ships. First and foremost, the Python can land at outposts, the Clipper cannot. The Python is probably the best ship in the game for doing RNGneer stuff, as you can essentially go everywhere and do everything depending on your load out.

how do you get locks on SC?

Half the time it just sits there greyed out doing absolutely nothing. This is with all 3 types of missiles. I jus dont get this layer of fidelity, sometimes it works just fine and i can lock and launch from 25k other times i need to be within 3k which defeats the purpose.
>>
>>186720680
Equip the biggest CS lock missiles you can fit and hope for the best.
>>
>>186720680
Heat guided missiles will not lock onto damaged ships correctly. If you get withing 200m and are behind them, you will get a lock. Best thing to do is rent radar guided missiles. Way longer to lock, but harder to avoid and they hit npcs much more often.
The heat missiles aren't broke, small ships don't put out enough heat when damaged.

I figured that one too, just didnt think anyone else was thinking the same thing.

I know they are holding back, and they are making things up as they go, and then coming out as if they are sorry and we should all be understanding.

Oddly enough 3.0 is good enough to show the gaming magazine news reporters and such.

They are holding back due to some reason, but I have my doubt it is bugs.

Could be sales related and,or a marketing campaign to funnel more cash out of old backers and new backers.

They are hoping also to get 400 to 435 USD coming up here for another internet .jpg spaceship.

So no update, no release to get anyone excited at gamescon and then sell a really expensive ship, ok CIG.. ok..
>>
>>186734094
What have they added since the PU launched? What is significantly different about the SC we have today versus launch of 2.0?
Same PU, same content, same missions. CIG has wasted development on making what was supposed to be a test environment like AC was into a pseudo game of its own, but not going far enough to make it a proper game. Whatever happened to the SM tournament? Oh yeah, there is no anti cheat, so SM is overrun with aimbots. The only reason cheating isn't more rampant is the game is too fucking boring to draw a crowd with 2 maps and 2 shitty modes.
>>186734389
How about where CIG launched a referral contest heavily rigged to favor twitch streamers then disqualified people just before the end for supposed terms violations only to find out that no one actually referred enough people to win, making the total contest a failure inside a failure.

The Twitch program referral thing was a failure, I do not believe anyone actually made it to the top, last I looked which was a few weeks ago, so it is no surprise what you are telling me.

I did not know of any further drama, but who ironic they would do that, do you know who the controversy was over?

I do not know if you also caught wind of Failure2Report when he ended up snagging a idris m upgrade and an 890 jump upgrade and then CIG went back on it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VS3W-yM9kHo

So they closed his account because CIG fucked up and let Idris Ms go out and they dont say anything, and just took his ships away, he melted ships to get the CCUs and left his account broken.

I've said the game had been vastly improved by later patches and mod support quite often, but it still gets shit on (somewhat justifiably so) because of it's shitty launch state and for being too casual.

It's still a thousand times better single player experience than NMS or ED is, and most likely Squadron42 will be.

>>186747054
Yeah it's surprisingly solid. I still thought I needed clean ui (removes the scanlines and chromatic stuff from hud) and fast actions (removes the hold key to do action) were needed. I then proceeded to add more but these are not actually changing any mechanics except the take off fuel cost reduction. I have gotten out from the first planet and now thinking about what I am supposed to do.

Milestones work perfectly. I don't think you'll even need a fresh start unless it's something which affects the planet spawns and even for them you can always just change a planet I think. It's easy as pasting couple of files, no tinkering needed.
>>
>>186747464
I also like the exocraft pad cost reduction mods. Because it's moronic that they made it an expensive tech structure thing you literally have to build every single time you land on a new planet instead of something you deploy from your ship.

Especially now that they made it much easier to just use your ship to fly to places in low atmospheres
>>
>>186743591
Yeah, NMS' new single player campaign was better than I expected, even though at times it felt a bit like they were trying way too hard to be meta and explain away why there's no multiplayer and the original ending for the game when you reach the center of the universe.

My biggest fear for Sq42 is that it ends up being a bloated next gen remake of wing commander 4 but with even less actual game play sequences

Whats there is the first 100 hours that IS a blast, combat is neat in elite, ships are nice when they're flying about and the sounds are fantastic, probably the best thing about ED

And then you will start grinding a conda and a part of you will die inside. After you get it and grind even more to get it buff more of your emotions will wither.

And then you will start grinding a cutter/corvette and you will become a soulless husk

/nmsg/ has been dead for a long time. As a final point, long timers here know the type of shit that SC and ED has had to endure, we lobbed most of it at each other on a regular basis. NMS set the standard for rushed and bad launches, the game is far from perfect or complete, and Sean Murray is as much to blame as Sony was for allowing himself to be cucked like that. None of this is in dispute. The glaring exception to me that suggests NMS does have a place here after all is the importance this board puts on holding a developer to account.
This board absolutely roasts CIG and ftroop on almost every decision. The basic meta here is armchair dev or answering noob questions. I was told character is who you are when no one is looking. CIG and Frontier are under the microscope and we know their flaws well. Everyone expected Hello to go away quietly after they created a new standard in bad. When no one was looking or expecting it, they followed through and showed that they were going to make good on their word, even putting MP in early to show they were committed.
Say what you will about NMS as a game, but no one can dispute that Hello is the dev to follow, and CIG and ftroop have something to learn from a tiny studio. NMS deserves consideration on that point alone.

If you're being somewhat srs and wanna win in a way that will make people angry, Gladiator with all S3 and S5 missiles, don't use your guns you will lose a gunfight against most fighters.

If you wanna be irritating as fuck but never actually kill anything the M50 is decently shields impossible to hit and even more impossible to get away from.

If you wan to just play the game on easy mode and blow the shit out of literally everything with minimal effort or skill get a superhornet.

So get one in game?
Seems simple to me. It'll probably be flyable pretty soon so you'll be able to borrow one from someone who bought it to fondle in the mean time.
I certainly wouldn't buy one for $$$, theres so much more ship out there to be had for the money.

I'd guess that, instead of having a complete 3.0 build, they made one that only has a single moon and you can fuck around and do surface things on it.
In any case, that's definitely a surprise.

Fire your fucking wife chris, she's murdering your dream. Or at least move her to some non-executive position where she can't cause damage.

Spread the word that 3.0 ptu is being secretly held for release at gamescom. That will build resentment against CIG for holding back the release till a hype marketing date could be hit, then when they fail to release There will be a fucking riot.
>>
>>186783090
nice plan xd dm me @ something awful forums
>>
People who pay for a ticket to gamescom get to fly the nox and play on a groundside environment before people who backed the games and own a nox.

That is fucked, and its exactly that same sort of fucked as magazine getting access before the people who paid for the project and as fucked as repeatedly and blatantly lying about the state of development to drive sales.

I hate their marketing team and I'm beginning to hate Chris so his complicity and continued support of their marketing team.

I'm saying a shitstorm on reddit has move potential influence than anything here. Devs and community team are active there. We need to get Sandi removed or this will literally go on forever, she will milk every release of significance every drop of content for every cent its worth and the game will never see anything near a full release. It has taken them a year and a half to release a single patch. we have been talking about nothing but 3.0 since this time last year and they were working on it before that. How long will it take to get 4.0 out the door with sandi holding it back at every stage to extract money from content we have already paid for. If every single incremental patch is exploited as a hype marketing opportunity it will take a decade for the game to approach release.

Get out. I'm not saying that because I like that skeletal bitch but because you're having delusions of grandeur.
>>
>>186786610
It's not about muh purity or muh optics you intentionally dense faggot, it's about her repeatedly, intentionally and destructively slowing down and muddling the development and release process to better suit her marketing plan. She is actively and intentionally interfering with development to squeeze more money out of the process. That is EXACTLY what the original pitch of cutting out the publisher and going straight to the players was supposed to avoid.

>>186786668
Don't need to get her fired, just get someone else in charge of marketing. Personally I think the only way to do that is to get through to Chris and Erin themselves and the only way to do that is to start a massive shitstorm. We need to get this to blow up in Sandi's face. MAYBE then we can get them to see that she is the greatest threat to their project.

>>186787970
She's Chris's wife and thus holds considerable influence over him because he is in fact kind of a bitch. For the last couple years she has been constantly using her influence to delay alpha content releases until they can be timed directly with major cons or other media events. She and Chris have also been falsely teasing the proximity of major releases any time a major sale is up and holding off on making delays public or updating the public dev schedule until after a sale is over. For example, 11 months ago at citcon they told us that 3.0 was going to be out by the end of the year, based on what we have learned in the last year, that was complete bullshit and they HAD to know it, however the announcement (3.0, biggest patch of the game thus far, planets and missions and actual game mechanics get hype!) was made at the same time as the Polaris, a $750 ligh warships went on sale, they sold thousands of Polaris's on the hype, Generating like $4 million in a week. They lied, intentionally to boost sales, and Sandi is the head of marketing, it was her idea. More recently, they held of on schedule delays for several weeks prior to the Tumbril buggy sale, once they sale was over they delayed the patch by like a month and a meaning dates had been slipping all along but they witheld that information until after the sale.

Theres been like a dozen such incidents in the past ~2 years, some major some minor.

Come on Derek, even if you post from 3 different IP's doesnt mean you'll get any merit.

It doesnt matter if she hates it or not.
She is getting the money that they need to create the game, and thats good.

Nobody is forcing people to pledge anything.

I've spent 50 dollaridoos and aint gonna spend a cent more until I see 3.0.

I also think that 3.0 will be delayed a lot longer...

Your plan have a critical flaw.
