Why can no game do forward and rear radar right?

>>362202862
>forward and rear radar instead of just 360 degree radar
Why
You need your radar for things at ~90 degrees anyway, and that's where front and rear radar fails the hardest

>>362203057
Well, in terms of real planes, in ye olden days before AESA, mechanically scanned radar was pretty big, and so tended to only fit in the nose cone, and in some cases the tailcone.

So you'd mostly have planes with forward radar, and some with forward and reverse radar, and only a few AWACS planes with full 360 radar, which had a giant fucking radome on top.

When's it come out so I can nab it before it jumps to like $200 for a starter pack?

So you seriously have no problem with the fact that they are releasing new ships almost every month, which is essentially DLC, to a game in alpha stage?

You know why they're doing it, to get more money out of the poor fucks who buy them. I cannot comprehend how anybody can be so retarded as to buy a DLC they cannot fully use.

The graphical fidelity in this game isn't "good detail", its designed to look good in trailers and bullshots so people would buy the ships, again.

Everything about this system is fucked up.

We havent even seen any proof of them actually working on a bigger universe, which is the main draw. All we've seen is one meagre system and autistically detailed base. Its just not possible to have that kind of detail on all the bases, so I guess there will be only a handful of them. There goes the "infinite universe" lol.

You have been cucked. Deal with it.

>So you seriously have no problem with the fact that they are releasing new ships almost every month, which is essentially DLC, to a game in alpha stage?
It's not essentially as DLC though. The preorder deals are laughably stupid, and blatantly not even close to worth it. They're essentially scamming idiots who don't realize how worthless what they're buying is. And more ships in a space game is definitely a good thing. So yes, I'm completely fine with them exploiting others to make a better game for me.

>The graphical fidelity in this game isn't "good detail", its designed to look good in trailers and bullshots so people would buy the ships, again.
Except it still looks great in game.

>We havent even seen any proof of them actually working on a bigger universe, which is the main draw. All we've seen is one meagre system and autistically detailed base. Its just not possible to have that kind of detail on all the bases, so I guess there will be only a handful of them.
Now maybe, and try actually thinking here for once, the reason it's taking so long is because they're building the rest of the world to the same detail we've seen so far. Stuff like that isn't "not possible", it's only not possible within the context of standard AAA shit which needs to be pushed out in a year or two. More time = more detail. More money = more time. That is simply how game development works.

>>362205975
You can see when he starts actually taking damage like half a second after first guy starts firing. The third guy hits with a total of one shot.

TTK is still really low but not absurdly so.

>>362207025

Maybe, though if someone wants something like Bebop the ship would have to be a lot more capable than the argo.

>M50

I don't think so. P-72 doesn't fit without awkwardly jamming it in. And it is only one meter longer than the m50

>>362199881

It was a move because some people don't care for the single player campaign, me included.. It makes the base pack cheaper for SC, but you can always add SQ42 later.

It's their current network. The server updates you on everyone's positions, all object positions even if it's not near you. If you force the game into an offline state you do not have this issue and the game runs beautifully.

You're an idiot. That money is going to the private bank accounts, or down the drain making sure glasses in a space bar are super high-fidelity.

>Except it still looks great in game.

Yes, but its not because Roberts wants you to have nice graphics, but because he wants so get the most money before the scam is up.

>Now maybe, and try actually thinking here for once, the reason it's taking so long is because they're building the rest of the world to the same detail we've seen so far.

Yes, that's the problem. If it took them this long to come up with one part of a solar system and a base, its going to be at least 10 more years before it's done. Are you prepared to wait that long? :-D

I thought that No Man's Sky would make people think more about gaming ads and how they can be fucked over by them, but I guess that's not happening. Once someone has decided a game will be "the best ever", no amount of evidence will make them see the truth. It's sad.

That's clearly hyperbole, but still, most games aren't going to have much finished content until they're very far along in development; it's heavily rear-loaded timewise.
>Are you prepared to wait that long? :-D
Yes, a good game will be a good game now or 10 years from now. I put down my money initially and have barely looked at the game since. Just because you're a petulant child who needs things NOW doesn't mean everyone else is.
>M-muh no mans sky
Pretty much everything to do with star citizen is the opposite of NMS's development. No Man's Sky is exactly what happens when a company only pushes out bullshots and spends literally no time on the details of their games.

>>362206319
He's right though. You're a fucking cancerous retard and literally everything wrong with faggy gamers. The game is attempting something different, let them attempt you little bitch nigger

>>362200312
>to get the most out of this game?
Probably a ridiculous amount, if even feasible for a current computer
>to play it with average or above average graphics compared to most games
Not really that much.

>>362208979
They don't, anything slower than light is not laser, but usually plasma or some type of projectile. I haven't bought SC but for example Elite has hitscan lasers and every other type imaginable. So because it's fun.

>>362208074
Or maybe the money is going into funding a game that will have great visuals among things and open development unlike NMS.

If there is one thing that I really dislike about star citizen it's that.

>>362208889

It's not hyperbole. I projected it from the current speed of developement, and it was an optimistic guess. How many solar systems is it supposed to have? More than 40? Please, it's never going to be done with the current level of detail.

Problem with Star Citizen is that it is on a schedule. Its a crowd-funded game and backers demand progress. They are getting angry now, just look at the subreddit. It wouldnt matter how long the game is being developed in a normal game, but this isnt normal - its crowd-funded.

And yes, it does havea lot in common with No Man's Sky. Most backers imagine this vast world that is alive, Roberts promises new features every stream but we never actually see them. They focus more on how it looks than how it plays. It made millions even before launch. It's got a cult following of people who can't stand it getting any criticism - see

>>362208928
>>362209792
>>362209091

This game is a dream, just like NMS. Only NMS just took 60 dollars from you, this one takes 40-300 USD for a in-game ship. I'm not saying its going to be a disaster for sure, just thats it's getting more and more likely. After breaking several release dates, they completely stopped releasing them. A red flag, wouldnt you say?

>>362208979

The people getting angry aren't likely to be the whales most of their income comes from. Even if they are, they'd have enough money to finish it by this point. inb4 "b-b-b-b-but they're pissing all the money away because I say so."

>>362211893
I'll admit that I haven't payed much attention since the initial campaign, but I highly doubt SQ42 will have much Mass Effect in it. They repeatedly said that it was a linear, classic campaign, and considering they've got quite a bit of starpower on board they're probably going for anything much open, and introducing roleplaying elements would be a little silly.

Then why have they pushed through so many release dates, If they knew what they were doing, they would have set a realistic one. And you have explained nothing, except for saying "they are building the world because I say so"

Roberts always had a publisher before it, a set sum of money, and a whip over him. He just got crazy and wanted to create the penultimate space simulation, which just is not possible with its current scope.

>But then, you're too young to remember even freelancer, aren't you?

Fuck you, Freelancer is my all-time favorite game. I played it more times than i can count and put easily 600 hours into the game.
Do you really think that I'm a hater? Because Im not. I am an original backer. I have an LTI ship. I wanted this game to be good

>People are calling me out on my false bullshit,

Look at the posts. Youre the only one actually having some kind of arguments, the others are just sperging out because I dared question the game.

Anyway, its late and Im going to sleep. Enjoy the disappointment that is Star Citizen. I hope a miracle occurs and its a good game. I really want to be wrong about the game.

>Cool features they're going to have

All those cool features they're going to have is them repeating what they've talked about before. Sometimes going into more detail from the basic premise. They haven't added on a new idea for a feature in years.

>Remember the Murray interviews

Yes. He lied about features that were in the game such as multiplayer, was very indirect with answers whenever someone asked a question, and constantly tried to ignore other questions by focusing on other crap. Not to mention the gameplay he showed was the same crap for two years, just with different settings.

Contrast that with what Roberts has shown. Which has been different for the most part, save for the last stream they did which many people agree should be avoided next year in favor of more content.

>>362212156

They're in space

There shouldn't even be any gravity at all. The odd shit out are all the people standing around like they're not in zero g, not the fact that a gun is floating in the air, you fuckin retard.

>>362213663
Because flying takes skill and shitters with mommy's credit card don't have skill.

Can someone explain to me what CI's plan for this game is?

Do they intend to trickle in content, little by little, until the game is "done" while at the same time keeping the dev cycle transparent? Or will the current current build eventually coalesce into a playable alpha at which point they'll continue working on the game behind close doors, in order to keep some stuff as a surprise for the final release?

I'm completely clueless about the game, but what I've seen so far has intrigued me.

there's futuremagic induced gravity, but it only goes so far up, so some of those guns may actually be floating in zero G while the players are rooted.

>>362214401
Kind of,yeah

>>362214142
somewhere in between.

they intend to build a couple systems out fully to be the beta, and then continue building the rest behind closed doors while the two beta systems are used to work out the kinks, then eventually they will open the floodgates and have a full size release. also, everything for the single player campaign is being kept under wraps

>>362214142
CIG, not CI.

>>362214401
Right now, no because there's only a tiny "slice" of the game. In the future, potentially. While they have been updating the current build similarly to an early access game, it's an alpha so it's a small version. Nobody really knows how they're going to implement the majority of content down the road.

The best games in history were made with limited budget and a tight schedule. The most disappointing games are always big budget highly ambitious titles with excessive dev time.

Yeah, but it'll be out five years from now.

You've got to carry that weight a little longer.

I assume you've done all the jobs in Crusader from 2.5? I think they added some, but I haven't played much of Crusader, enjoying SM.

They did add a couple of derelict starfarers and a bunch of other stuff you can raid for money and guns and pvp shenanigans though, it's pretty much exactly what they showed in gamescom, so nobody can accuse them of mocking that stuff up just for hype and never releasing it.

>>362217434
you're literally looking for things to complain about. the new movement system makes gameplay pretty tight, and seamless transition between first person and flying makes for some extremely unique situations. like this

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1y5HZZIN99c

>>362216402
Me too, I want to see what's wrong with them.

iirc they're just a classic bernal sphere with a plasma window for shit to fly through, there shouldn't be any actual issues.

>>362217180
no like I said I don't like half finished alpha bullshit.

I want smooth gameplay, I want Squadron 42 and I want this shit to run beautifully maxed out on my rig.
right now its a hassle to run this shit

how many years more?
2020 realistic?

>>362218152
3-6 years, so 2020-2024

>>362218152
just wait for 3.0 and the netcode replacement I guess, sometime in 2017 knock on wood. if you play offline it runs fantastically, it's just the shitty cryengine base netcode that's fucking up framerates and causing hard drops.

How can the ending be leaked if the game is never gonna be released?

>>362209983
Dude, how? I have an i7 and a 980ti and the last time I played I couldn't run over 30fps on the lowest settings.

Oddly though, my FPS seemed exactly the same at the highest settings.

What am I doing wrong?

Are they still doing cash shop bullshit?

https://www.redacted.tv/custom-user-cfg-guide-star-citizen-alpha-2-x/
try this stuff out, they update it every time there's a new patch. also it heavily depends on what mode you're playing; Crusader is by far the worst for frame drops.

also, I've downgraded my resolution in the most recent (the FPS stuff) all the way to 1280x720. other than some grainy text, it's barely noticeable.

>>362218950

If you are in the Persistent Universe (Crusader) then that is normal, there is a serious network bottleneck.

If you are on one of the Arena Commander modes then there is something wrong, you should be getting at least 50-60 FPS.

>>362219368
Haven't tried any of the other modes so that might be it. Is it really related to network issues though? Is there any way to explore the universe in a single player instance or something?

>>362219317
Cool, will give this a go.

Thanks guys, gonna fire up the shitty launcher now and have another go. If I can get this working nicely I might actually be tempted to buy something other than the lame aurora I have.

major tom is a shitposter extrordinaire who spends all his time running into walls and trying to bug himself out so he can make the game look as broken as possible, I have never run into even a third of the shit in any given video of his in all my play time.

>Is it really related to network issues though?

It's probably limited by server FPS, which gets hammered by all of the AI ships running.

Also worth noting that there is a CPU affinity issue for some people. It is unlikely that you have this problem with an i7 thought.

When the game is running open the Performance tab of task manager and get the view that shows individual CPU cores. One or two cores, normally 2 and 6, are prioritised by the game and if they are constantly at 100% usage then this can cause issues. If you see any cores locked at 100% then go to Details in the task view, and set Affinity to exclude (untick) those cores.

The load will be distributed evenly to the other cores and you will get a slightly higher framerate, with noticeably fewer hangs and sudden framerate drops.

That worth it? Or can I easily earn a ship by playing normally?

>>362223634
the package that is currently ~$35 is the cheapest entry package you will see from now on. from there you can earn your way up in game.

>>362223634

At the moment you can't earn anything permanent, but once the game goes live everything - absolutely everything - will be available for in-game currency.

Right now you can earn rental credits, which allow you to play with a ship or piece of equipment for 7 days.

I would advise new players to spam the racing mode. You learn how to fly and you get rental points fast, as long as you are on your final lap when the race ends. If you can win the race then it is ridiculously efficient to get points and try any ship you want.
