Here we discuss space games that cannot sustain a general, such as: Erectile: Dysfucntion, Scam Shitizen, and No Man's Buy

Post useful links in the thread and the next OP, if even this thread survives, will contain the most important ones like buying information, major updates, etc.

What about "Elite /edg/, Star citizen /scg/ and No Man's sky general. /dsgg/" for the title from now on?

That's a long ass title. You can just include /edg/, /scg/ (and /nmsg/??) in the OP and the search function will find the thread.

>>150374578
I personally search by putting "elite" in 4chan's search bar, so if your suggestion was to be the title the thread would not be a result if I was to search by my usual method

Say if someone comes on /vg/ and wants to find the star citizen general. what are they more likely to search by, star citizen or /scg/? If they're new to /vg/ how are they to know the way generals are abbreviated
I figure we cover all the bases with my suggested method, but admittedly the title is rather long

A proposal for the new OP

"Whatever the title is"

Welcome to /dsgg/, which stands for Dead Space Games General, a place to discus Elite Dangerous, Star Citizen and No Man's Sky as well as other miscellaneous space games

The main discourse of this general will be centered around Elite and Star Citizen.
However off topic games such as the X series are welcome here as long as discussion of said games does not derail the thread.

Comments and criticisms welcome.
I tried to keep it short and digestible but then I kept adding more to the info at the top

I'm yet to see how this formats so that may need to be changed if we decide to go with it
>>
>>150376732
still smaller than any of the individual OPs, it has my vote. I'd say even drop the pastes and just have a couple of the most recent important infolinks for each. if any one group wants more real estate in the OP they can try their luck making their own general again; when they've got some new content to talk about they'll probably be able to survive for a week or two on their own anyway.
>>
>>150376732

This is good.

>>150378264

Disagree. Keep the pastebins, as they are useful. If one general wants to split again having a pastebin won't hinder them.
>>
>>150378264
Pastebins are great.
>>
>>150379556
>>150379510
OK, looking at the pastes the ED one is actually good FAQ material, but the SC one is just the latest weeklies, not really prescient info for anyone seeking this place out already. I'd say it should be rewritten to have some actual FAQ stuff, much needed for the game actually as it literally just dumps you in space with no form of tutorial at the moment, but I'm not gonna write it, at least not right now.
>>
>>150380104
I'd write it if I knew anything about the game, hell I've never even played it
I just copied and pasted this post >>150370861 but yeah it could probably do with someone who knows their shit doing a typical Q&A type thing and a small starters guide like the elite one.

In similar fashion to E:D? Most certainly. Just because others have also fucked up doesn't make NMS any less of a fuck up. Of course, NMS will be a fantastic game for people who want to explore endless, colorful randomly generated stuff.
>>
>>150393251
>NMS will be a fantastic game for people who want to explore endless, colorful randomly generated stuff.

So like, ED but with more colour, and actually being able to walk around planets, with stuff to do, instead of dead planets.

Gotcha.
>>
>>150393389
>stuff to do
Like grinding to infinity? Most certainly. Look, I know NMS is going to have more interesting things to do with planets in their game but so far it doesn't seem to have anything to hold a significant playerbase for more than 2 or 3 months. If exploring forever and grinding is your kind of playstyle, I don't see why you wouldn't enjoy the game. At the end of the day we're 2 people with 2 different sets of preferences, but I do think that NMS is shit for similar principles of why E:D is shit.
>>
>>150393762
I know, it's not even about audience retention with them.

For me, it's having something to do other than the intense depression sinkhole that is grinding in this Elite game after I got triple Elite and my Anaconda.

Or waiting on that fucking dreadfully slow Star Citizen project to cobble something together that's "fun" and playable.

I'm just bored out of my mind and want something new.
>>
>>150392598
Chaff doesnt do shit to scans when will you fucks learn.
>>
>>150395042
>I'm just bored out of my mind and want something new.

There's really nothing much that can be done from this. You could become a tester for SC but that's tedious and comes with the obvious fps issues, bugs, crashes, etc since it's being released to people for those purposes. It's really just a waiting game at this point. I'm waiting for gamescom so that I can regain some faith in Star Citizen. I've lost all hope in elite a long time ago, and nothing has changed since then unsurprisingly. NMS is overpriced for what it offers.
>>
>>150395585
Overpriced when its going to be the only open 3d planet exploration game for a bit thats done?
If anything its taking advantage of a monopoly and can't fault it that. Waiting for a sale to but I don't begrudge them not sitting on their asses when elite and sc are failing to fill a niche.
>>
>>150395401
It stops them from starting the scan. I have never been scanned, even going in slow as hell, while regularly chaffing.
>>
>>150396357
I think a much larger amount of people, myself included, would have picked it up for $30-40, but not $60. That's how I felt before anything leaked, and especially now after seeing it in action, I can't help but feel this is going to be a lot of buyer's remorse and we'll see a good chunk of players getting refunds.

It does nothing if they already are locked on to your or if the scan has already started, but if you chaff it makes it harder to target you to start the scan.

>>150396459
You'd have to test that with someone else because the devs said it doesnt effect scanning at all.

I own all 3 games now.

Star Citizen, Elite: Dangerous and NumaleSky

You know why Elite has most of my playtime?

It's because it's the only one out of the 3 that's RELEASED.

Star Citizen is promising a lot, but it's highly unplayable right now.

You can fuck off with your doomsday attitude, I'm here to stay, and I'll fucking keep playing E:D if NMS turns out to not hold my attention for more than 20 hours.

I honestly don't know what the differences are, except that Legacy was released in 2016 and is the most up to date game. From what I played, it's not too bad, but I didn't play much thanks to my stupidity. Most I did was kill some NPC traders flying to and from the beginning station.

I want to be 100% clear with this

At gamescom, Star Citizen will be showing off their pirate asteroid base, a first person shooter update, procedural technology developments, an new star system, and then at Citizencon they will be showing off their single player aspect of the game?

If this is everything they're showing, should I be hyped for it? I missed their last events last year but I heard it exceeded expectations.
>>
>>150401169
I have a good life tip for you:
Never be hyped for anything.
>>
>>150401169
I haven't kept up since arena commander and even I'm excited to see the solar system stuff.

Such a shame Braben told everyone fuck all at lavecon except "w-w-wait for gamescom guys, big surprise, we swear!" as if it wasn't utterly fucking obvious all it's going to be is announcing the new bubble, thargoids, and ships in ships, all three of which are going to release broken beyond all hope of repair thanks to their spaghetti code. And likely still no storage, because fuck the players.
>>

If you're not vested in the game, don't be hyped. Getting hyped for things is bad.

The leaks have made me a little more excited for the game, I didn't really expect more than what I saw. I do agree though that the game shouldn't be 60 dollars, it doesn't offer nearly as much to do but 30 dollars would be perfect, but I'd settle with 40. I can see NMS taking up atleast 100 hours of my time so I'm thinking that I'll bite the bullet and end up getting it.

Not to mention he's been in competition with Roberts since Wing Commander days with Battlecruiser 3000AD and has released nothing but disasters to scathing reviews while Roberts has had almost nothing but success and positive reviews. Looks like it won't be changing anytime soon, seeing as Line of Defense is an unmitigated disaster to the point he started claiming it was just a project he was doing "for fun".

Starsector is VERY fun. Has a lot of mods to add factions and new ships and modules. The background sim is a lot better than Elite's and combat is extremely fun. I'd say it's absolutely worth the 15 dollars.
>>
>>150405147
No one likes Derek Smart, the only reason he got support the first time was because he used an ex-employee, blew everything out of proportion, and made up almost all the accusations. Once all that came to light, they realized they got burned and have been shitting on Smart's retardation since.

Also probably had something to do with little information about SC coming out at the time, making it ripe for claims of scam and vaporware.

It's a 2D perspective where you control the ship but can also command other ships in your fleet, so it's absolutely nothing like Freelancer. Have you seen any images of the game at all? Here's a pretty good webm of the combat. Shields, armor, hull included, with different weapons doing different kinds of damage, along with parts of the ship being independent so if you break through the armor of the front of a ship and it turns around, you now have to break the armor of the different parts of the ship in order to fully damage the hull. Also ramming is fun.

Thinking about it, actually, even if it's borind as fuck, isn't all the shit they put into horizons, planetary landings, SRV exploration, pretty code intensive? Maybe if they put the same amount of effort into making it fun, it could be bearable.

but none of that stuff is new. the pirate base is in limited alpha now, though they might be showing the bigger main pirate hub, the procedural stuff just had a ton of pics and info in the german PC Games magazine and they showed the early version last year, and the FPS is just going to be tighter controls on levels we already know; almost definitely the original Gold Horizon and either Grinhex or some other station hacked together from Crusader parts or maybe an Idris.

I knew from a very long time ago that Spider, as described in lore, is impossible to make. It's supposed to be a massive ship graveyard that was transformed to become an enormous pirate city.

Concept art is the first pass for design on objects that 3D modelers use as reference when making the game assets into 3D software. We'll get something fun out of it all.

it's in a funny in the middle state right now, where what we have IS actually pretty fucking cool, but still nothing compared to what we're being offered eventually. if it bombed tomorrow we would have basically a AAA dogfighting game with janky FPS layered on top, yet it would still be a scam by most measures .
>>
>>150426247

Why dont all those asteroids clump together into one if they're so massive and so close to each other?

Not even fucking close. We still don't have the advanced damage model on all ships, we don't have ship components, we don't have weapon or component tuning, we don't have a way to create larger organizational dogfights, it crashes, it's unbalanced (not that that's important for SC right now), and has no map variety. It's an WIP game missing a lot of what it should have for now.

>>150426626
In real-world terms, they aren't that large at all. When it comes to the game, it's a game. It does whatever the developers want it to do, but I don't believer they'll have any large asteroids simulate gravity that will take thousands of years to touch eachother.
>>
>>150427017
I use the term AAA semi-ironically; remember that games like Bioshock Infinite are considered AAA mostly based on their setpieces alone. in a low bar industry what we have still ranks near the top, even though it's missing the majority of what people actually want from it.

First, your analogy is shit. Second, we know for a fact that each planet contains the same life all over it. You don't need to spend more than a small amount of time per planet to experience what it has to offer. This is why there aren't any tools to actually stay on a single planet for long amounts of time.

Will at first you can include all companies that charge for DLC. DLC are mainly paid patches including massive bug fixes.

Secondly there are companies that sell subscriptions, like in freemium MMO there's always an userbase who pays for the majority. They pay for bugfixes amongst other things.

And last but not least, consider Frontier Development. They charged 60 bucks for Barren Planets DLC which was mainly an excuse to extent their code monkeys' contracts because the game needed major bug fixes.
>>
>>150440610
>Charge for DLC

Refer to my previous question, as this doesn't answer it. DLC != bug fixes. Again, I'm not aware of any developers charging for bug fixes.

>Subscriptions

Other than content expansions I can't think of any MMOs that charge for bug fixes that don't apply solely to that expansion.

>consider FD

Well, landing on shitty planets isn't a bug fix. It's just empty content.

>>150441070

Are you retarded ?

Of course DLC = bug fixes. Each expansion is the opportunity to fix problems from the previous build.

Subscriptions are a business model. The wallet-cucks fund the entire show by assuring that actual people work on their computers to maintain updates and software stability.

Most likely not. On average, E:D ships are larger than the buyable SC ships, but carriers in SC are 1.2+ km long. "Any" ship incorrect in these parameters. If he was referring to the buyable ships (which he wasn't since it was just a bait post) I still do not think that the Anaconda is larger than the Javelin destroyer.

but even still, it proves nothing since almost every ship in SC will have a functional interior from the start, which is most likely why they take a while to make.

In answer to your query, though I haven't verified this myself, the shortest-ranged FSD probably sets the maximum range for the wing leader. It would be like trying to jump to a system beyond your own range, just with different notifications.

Sort of. Driving around and shooting rocks is necessary to buy mods for your ships, which make combat a lot easier. Also, there's raiding ground bases, which, like everything in Elite, is kind of fun the first few times.

>Further, is there a sort of beginner guide to Horizon?
Not really needed. You just fly down to planets and land like you would at a docking bay, it's pretty self-explanatory.

>And should I bother going to a player-populated zone? I really just hang out near where I started, maybe 4-6 solar systems away from it.
Playing with other people is one of the few things that makes this game remotely tolerable long-term. Grind until you have a decent ship, then try to find a player group for whatever you like doing. PvP is kinda fun, but Engineer mods are pretty much required to participate now.

I more or less meant where to obtain the necessary mods and components to get the hum-v and the shit needed to land on planets.


Also, where's a good place/site to meet players and form groups?

Thanks for the answers anon.

Module is at every station as fair as I know, you buy the empty module then it gives you another offset module under it, and you buy the srv by clicking that.

He's not entirely giving you bad advice. If you're very new, you don't have much to lose by simply self destructing and rebuying, unless you really want to get an authentic experience with cancerous dads by calling the fuel rats and waiting 2 hours for them to show up and getting the instancing to work to give you fuel.

Should I keep palladium and platinum, or sell them? Found a stash on some planet in the middle of nowhere.
>>
>>150483148

They're for selling. Platinum is normally only found by mining metallic asteroids so sometimes you'll see mining missions asking for some. They normally want a small bunch (like 3-6 tons) and pay a bit better than selling them alone if you happen across such a mission and have the platinum on board.
>>
>>150483148
You don't want to carry them around for mining missions cause you get bullshit NPC pirates spawned behind you all the time...
Just sell them.

>>
>>150484384

You spend those at engineers for module upgrades or on synthesis.

Synthesis options are in your inventory panel, for things like ammo reloads, FSD range boost, or refueling/repairing the SRV without having to board the ship or dock back at a station.

An oft-overlooked secondary use of the FSD boost synth is that it can instead be used to make a short jump cost less fuel in the event you manage to strand yourself just short of a fuel scoopable or inhabited system but have materials on board.
>>
>>150484384
Those are for crafting. You'll need them for RNGineers and for synthesis (on the right hand panel in inventory, if you want to craft say ammo for your multicannons).
You can't sell them and pirates won't come after you if you have them.

I wish to murder the lawless, mercilessly and relentlessly. Do you suppose that anyone spawning on GrimHEX, being an outlaw already and assuredly outside the range of the comm arrays, will be a perfectly legit kill for lawful players? I imagine taking a heavily armored crew out there and going full Duterte on the station, butchering my way to the spawn rooms and basically turning them into cells; patrol the halls killing anyone who leaves and make it the rebel base a prison colony.
is it still griefing if you do so in the name of the LAW?
>>
>>150485263
>>150485298

Fun fact: The 30% damage bonus for the premium ammo refill stacks multiplicatively with rngineer mods because FDev sucks at managing variables.

>overcharged weapon multiplying base damage
>ammo bonus multiplying the multiplied overcharged damage
>corrosive rounds multiplying the doubly-multiplied mod+ammo damage

Fucking wrecking a wing of fags in FDLs and a vette solo and getting told I'm being reported for client hax was almost worth the grind for 7 antimony
>>
>>150486386
Yep.
They had to have the PP community leaders explain percentual multiplication to them when ftroop sucks at maths...
It's a pretty damning evidence that nobody really tests anything there or does any kind of value checking or proving formulas or anything...

Brabo and Sandro jerk off a design docco and slap it on the table of this summer's intern who has no clue on how to program and doesn't verify shit.
>>
>>150486647

And they just keep making the same mistakes over and over again.

Founders world 10% discount modules re-selling for full price

Rares instantly becoming worth galactic average if dropped for someone to scoop

Torval -> Delaine imp.slave smuggling because 10% reduction in buy price + 20% increase in sale price means a hell of a lot more than 30% more profit when your margin was only around 10% to begin with.

Torval rank 2 imp.slave reselling to the station you bought it from, because 20% in each direction is much larger than the 10% difference that normally exists between buy and sell prices

Hudson/Aisling BH'ing because 20-50% bonus multiplied with 100% pledge bonus, then also applied twice since it calculated on kill and again when turning the bounty in.

Robigo mission abandonment because 80 slaves is an easy million and the sale more than repaired your rep loss.

etc...
>>
>>150487820
What?
Founder's world modules STILL re-selling full price? Seriously?

I thought all of those are fixed.
>>
>>150487820

Don't forget Sag A* being worth around 58 million because black hole value used to be a straight multiplier on their mass.
>>
>>150488131

Those ones are fixed now. It's just a list of some examples of FDev's goldfish-levels of foresight, and why we can expect many more in the future.

>How did you manage?
I've been grinding Sothis smuggling runs. Im still less than 100 hours in, but when missions pay 6 mil+ per mission, it isnt that hard to get to 111 million.
In fact, if i sold this type-7 i bought to ferry more space weed and slaves, i'd have an extra 17 million
>>
>>150494385
Why did you grind Sothis in a Cobra and not get an ASP immediately when you could and triple your cargo space and increase jump range?
>>
>>150494479
Because when i came to Sothis i only had about 3 million credits
That was about 2 days ago
>>
>>150494479
>>150494843
also sothis/ceos stations only sell cobras, vipers, and transporters
>>
>>150494843
>>150495359
But after the first trip to the bubble you have enough money to buy and equip an ASP.
Or was it only between Sothis and Ceos?
>>

yep
I'm not jumping 400 fucking lightyears for a measly 6 million credits, when i can get the same amount or more for jumping only 9

What do you mean?

Sothis
>>
how do you find materials on a planet?
just land anywhere and drive around until you see one?
>>
>>150498304
You land, look at the scanner of your SRV, listen to sounds, drive towards signals, see a hunk of rock you can target with your turret and shoot it.
Deploy scoop and suck them all in.
>>
>>150495980
If youve never done sothis missions, You fly to Sothis and the main station, accumulate as many delivery missions as you can and load up your cargo, and fly back to the bubble and complete them all.
A smart trader will get 10 Cargo = 1mil each
More cargo isnt always better because they often try and jip you by doing a 180 cargo haul for 10mil
>>
>>150498459
>>150498304
If you're looking for something in particular, I believe the system map now tells you exactly what materials in what quantity are on planets now. Or was that the discovery scanner? Maybe both?

Dont listen to him, just keep running smuggling between Sothis and Ceos. 6 mil for an 8 ly jump is better than 10 mil for a 400ly jump
>>
>>150499840
The amount of time it takes to fill up smuggling missions makes it far less cost effective than filling and running 80mil worth of long hauls.
>>
>>150498459
>>150498718

oh cool, cheers babeses
>>
>>150500076
Yeah but long hauls run the risk of 2 things:
A: Boredom beyond all compare
B: Running out of fuel
because sometimes a generated route takes you to an area of everything BUT kgb foam stars, and if it's over 200 ly then you're bound to run out
>>
>>150501078
you can easily fit 100t fuel and 200t cargo in a python

thats enough for nearly 450ly
>>
>>150501078
wut

Only a dingus that doesn't keep an eye on his fuel gets stranded. It's not hard to notice you're at 1/3rd tank and switch to eco then plot a route to a scoopable star, only takes a minute. Hell, I run my anaconda with no reserves, making it ~4 jumps until empty, and I've never once been stranded.
>>

>>150501540
Reserve fuel tanks.

>>150502017
Are you saying that seems expensive to you?

That's chump change, newfriend. The extra money you'll make for doing stacked long hauls in your Asp will hugely outweigh the trickle of money you get for refreshing the board until you get a lucky mission to Ceos. In one or two round trips you'll have enough for a Sothis Conda, and then you'll be putting away like 40-50mil an hour with stacked long hauls.

>>150502801

And then you'll want to kill yourself to end the tedoum! If you don't already, that is.
>>
>>150503092
Right, so if you're a space jew, wouldn't want to maximize your shekel intake? Don't piddle along making a few million every time you get lucky enough to get a mission which actually takes you to Ceos.

https://coriolis.io/outfit/asp/0p0tiFfliddsnf5------0000--05370202430101.AwRj4yvI.Aw18WQ==

There's your starter. Once you get enough money from runs with this, upgrade to a Conda

https://coriolis.io/outfit/anaconda/0p5tnFklndksxf5--------0000------0605050504043703034301.Iw18ZlA=.Aw18ZlA=

Now you can infinitely generate as much money as you want at a staggering rate.

>>150503186
>implying that refreshing the mission board for hours on the off chance that you might get a mission to Ceos isn't tedious

You make a lot more money much faster from stacking long-ranged deliveries. Obviously if a Ceos mission pops up, take it, and then replace it with another long-ranged delivery when you go there to drop it off.
>>
>>150504010

>>150510206
My point is the person making the recipe could have used an oven with different heat levels, pans with different thickness and material, and dough made with ingredients of vastly different consistency to your own. Not all butters or milk or especially eggs are made equal, even among the same %s. You could argue the differences in time are minimal, but they're still there, and it still takes precision to make them as close to perfection as possible.
