My best guess is that the end of the beam laser clips through the bottom of the ship when it gimbals up and since its not detecting that the ship is in the way now, it just fires through the ship.

>Derek is in constant meltdown mode since the presentation

I'm sad about that. At this rate the game with shooting in ships in space, in the air, on ground, on foot, with vehicles, mining, trading, base building and all that seamlessly will never be finished despite the millions that went into it and despite it being several years in delay.

But oh boy, at least we get some Star Citizen stuff soon.

>>152612291
Who's Derek?

The mission in the presentation was scripted.

If it wasn't scripted, random people would be able to fly above those ships at the end and blow them up before the NPC could finish talking, and then kill the player, and take their reward.

It must have been a set piece to show off their mo-cap and to make people think they had a lot of progress.

Anyone got any insider info?

I'm not DS. But I do have legit annoyances at CIG/RSI.

One thing I will say in their defence is that the Freelancer being able to see players inside the building is quite nice. But not as nice as the mo-cap they did for the quest-giving NPC.

I still stand by my criticism, though. Namely that there is still nothing of value that we have access to and it never looks like it does in their presentations when they host a LAN with very few people on it and run it on SLI Titans to hide the poor performance.

>>152613450
>Hide the poor performance

Did you somehow miss the poor performance of the presentation?

>>152613450
I wonder if they'll be able to do that for all quest-giving NPC's. If not then why show it that way?

>>152613556
It performed smoothly, I didn't see any screen taring or anything like that. The most ugly part of it is when the ship zoomed in to see the player standing in the port and there was jaggy edges everywhere.

>Smart lives in Florida

It all makes sense now. What IS wrong with Florida, anyways? Does it make crazies, or does it just attract them?

If I am inexperience in trading and a mediocre dogfighter, will I eat shit doing the Sothis/Ceos trade/smuggling thing?
Should I buy an Adder/Hauler for it?
Flying in circles is getting stale, and compared to the cost of bigger ships, it's almost infeasible to get anything more expensive than a Type6 through just collecting bounties.

To manage sothis/ceos missions you really need a decent trade rank.
hauler/adder are to small to really do it too, minimally you want a type 6, or ideally an asp for the jump range.

Grind with Viper until you can afford to outfit a Vulture. I don't know dick about trading; I've been trying it the past few days and only made about ~1 million in a well-fitted ASP. However, I've always went with bounty hunting and the Vulture is still the way to go until you can afford an FDL or a Corvette or something that's ridiculously powerful.

ive been tasked with destroying "6 sentry skimmers" at a planet base

what do they look like? the things that were obvious targets were called "defense turrets" so that's obviously not right

>>152617110
If you fly 10-50k out and look for POIs, you can get skimmers to pop that won't give you a bounty but will still count towards your total.

Just wondering, I upgraded from my basic aurora pledge (with LTI) to the Mustang, and ended up losing it.

How important is insurance, or LTI vs. paid? If it's not particularly important, I guess I'll leave it.

But I have the opportunity to trade in my Mustang for credit and downgrade back to the Aurora with LTI, and have a lot of credits left over. How long will that pledge buy-back be available? Will it still be available post-launch, etc.? (implying this game will ever launch)

Haven't really been following the game, got pretty hyped back in 2013 and spent a couple of kid one a pledge, then upgraded it a couple of years later. Spent a couple of hours in the space combat training but haven't touched anything else.

LTI should transfer. Submit a ticket.

>>152617938
Pledge buy-back will probably end up in the system until we get out of beta, but as long as you do it before beta you should be fine. As the other guy said, if you simply upgraded with a CCU token, LTI should've stayed. If you melted and side-graded it won't.

anyone else hoping for sc to go monthly subscription? I think it will scare away the normies. Also, I hope theres some kind of character level ups or enhancements because with perma death, people will be more careful and not go full yolo pirate.

>>152617938
LTI isn't mandatory unless you are planning on CCUing to something substantial.

No

so, realistically speaking, realising star marine with the current netcode might be a mistake. gun fights in the PU feel awful because of the netcode. if star marine is anything like that it will be laughed at and mocked by everyone.

>>152618620
What's a CCU token?

That's the problem, none of this shit is really explained. I think I melted and side graded, I guess.

(Traded my initial pledge in for store credit and then used that with an extra 5 bucks or so to get a different pledge that had access to alpha)

What's a CCU and is it still available? Like I said, I still have the opportunity of melting my current pledge back and getting my aurora with LTI back, and then if CCU is still available (whatever it is), using that?

Don't really give a shit about early access anymore, haven't been playing the game at all because it's optimised so badly (dogfighting isn't so bad as in space there's less assets but on the space station it's pretty bad, and my system is decent)

If LTI isn't going to be a big deal then I probably won't even bother.

>>152619050
how about monthly subscriptions but also not being able to buy in game currency for real money? I really hate the idea of it being permanently pay to win.

https://robertsspaceindustries.com/pledge/ship-upgrades

You can simply upgrade the ship in your package without losing the other things.
Noone knows yet if ship insurance and LTI will play a big role (most likely it won't), but I'd suggest keeping it.

It's an information runner by design, but can also be used to haul very small high value items. It's basically the fastest ship in a straight line.

It also features a gun rack inside, so you could just use it as ship to track bounties and shoot them when they exit their ship with a long range energy rifle.

For that, to steal info (whatever the hell that bullshit means) and it can be used for what will turn out to be simple courier missions. Comms are basically instant in-system but are bottlenecked between systems so the idea is that someone might pay some deliveryboy to get their message somewhere quicker rather than waiting on Space Comcast.

So do you need a ship to jump through to transmit on the other side? Or can you transmit through a jump point somehow?

that fucken headline, almost seems like bait

>>152625075
The only half-legit argument I could see for this is that it would remove interdictions as a mechanic. Maybe a decent compromise would be only jumps between stars, while also hugely speeding up the acceleration/deceleration speed for supercruise, so supercruise/interdictions are still a thing, but ludicrous travel times are significantly reduced.

They did something a while back that made jumping TO supercruise totally smooth. Dropping out of SC and entering Glide are still pretty janky though.

Dumb thing is that the engine can do it, yet again FDev's shitty networking gets in the way.

Teleportation for multi-crew sounds fine. I suppose you kind of spawn in as a crew member rather than your actual character.

You wait until that shit is on sale.

>>152626004
Even if the lag on super cruise is do to waiting for the network (and by the way if it is then they could improve it vastly by predictive client side guess work) they way it drops you out it still teleports you from the point you hit the drop button to 10 km away from the station of whatever.
There is no way that that could be claimed as seamless when it literally explains it as "destination lock" and then precedes to move the player up to 100 km to a new location.

>>152626553
Putting aside all the warnings of "don't do it", that looks to be the best one. Unless you don't want Horizons then buy the one that only says Elite Dangerous.

Basiclly, on some ships the only hud you have is the basic cross hairs and speed indicator. Any other information is only on the ship's MFDs.

Of course on most of these ships the MFD's are either too small to read, blocked by the helmet, or totally off screen making some ships nearly impossible to use due to lack of vital information.

there's a huge thread on the patch feedback forum where people are bitching at CIG or trying to defend this shit as "immersive".

That Star Citizen thread is pretty salty at the moment. That station and the shady guy looked amazing. How will that work in the full release BTW? Do we have to queue up to talk to him? While I'm talking to him will other people come up behind him and do pelvic thrusts or something?

PG planet still looks pretty meh but it's their first try right.

>>152631549
No. Star Citizen is lots of strafing and decoupled flight from what I've seen.

Dying Sun is more like Battlestar Galactica, you normally fly like an aeroplane but there is a drift button that lets you do a Starbuck.

It's fun but pretty short.

I think they said that when you enter a mission giving area (like sit down with the NPC or enter a dudes house) it will put you in your own instance and you won't be able to see other players.

The irony is that E:D uses smoke and mirrors with the illusion of size and freedom while SC foregoes that for actual gameplay.

>>152632142
ED is much, much slower in general, stronger aim assist, weak as fuck yaw movement, also beam weapons instead of projectiles

>>152632180
But E:Ds hyperspace jump is nothing but a over-the-top tunnel animation. Jesus Christ

so nothing else on the market compares to star citizen huh?

guess i gotta find a way to get a cheap amd key.

i just dont wanna have to download a 30 gb game just to play arena commander. oh well.

heh, time for a new monitor. Just got my 1440p and it's easier to read now. They'll be cheap by the time SC comes out.

I think that shot was like 70-80 fov. The cutlass cockpit just has a lot of empty space on the sides

>Not training every person in your crew on emergency repair in case your engineering team died in the explosions that caused the breach.
The Honor Harrington series would like to have a word with you. It actually is pretty essential to have multiple groups of emergency trained personnel. There's no guarantee who will survive and need to pitch in given the case in catastrophic damage.

ED has much a optimum turn speed (nonsensical in space but whatever), slower pitching, less powerful strafing and heavily nerfed yaw so it feels more like air combat. Roll and pitch.

It has a Flight Assist Off mode, but this also disables rotation cancelling making it quite hard to use.

Brb, will confirm.

ED is mostly solo space trucking

SC is hardly a game yet but it's aiming more to be an MMO. Check back for version 3.0 this year.

SC's QD animation doesn't seem much different to EVE's warp drive.

In the end though this is comparing SC's in-system travel to ED's inter-system travel. Do we know how SC's jump points work yet?

Angels Fall First's fighters *kind of* feel like SC's, aside from the fact that it's 3rd person view.

In fact, the game feels a lot like a low res version of SC that's all pvp arena combat instead of a sandbox.

I really wish the game had a single player story campaign, honestly. The multiplayer is nearly abandoned.

>>152632853
You enter what appears to be a mini black hole and it warps space around you. You then have to fly through it without murdering yourself on the walls of the warp point. If you manage to do that you get through and can continue your journey.

>>152632390
anon it's utterly seamless. a mod even said so.

Epileptics worst nightmare. You'll have to manually navigate if when mapping the jump point. Otherwise you can choose between manual and auto.

Sure are a lot of people on here defending poor design decisions.

Devils advocate, how does having some modest timer hinder your gameplay at all? At what point do you need to have your ship right now, where you couldn't have planned ahead 10 minutes? If they had released it without a timer in the first place would you have complained that there was a time gate or just be thankful we could move our ships?

The game would be better all around with having the sink for transferring ships be time and not money.

Now people are going to be complaining how they can't afford to move their fleet across human space because of outrageous prices, when having it be affordable and just take time would have made moving around trivial. It also satisfies immersion and lore requirements in this game that puts a lot of stock in both.

>>152632975
Is there in-game demo of this? I'm curious how hard it is to navigate the jump point.

>>152633018
I think the most offensive thing about the frontier forums is that a mod can say anything and hundreds of dads will agree, even if it's completely false. It's like paradox plaza.

Mods are just senior dads anyway. Not sure why anyone gives a fuck what they say.

Even the dads agree, it's more of a "simulation" than a game.

When eddb.io lists a 'station' as planetary, does that mean I need to land on the planet?

also, why the fuck is there a star in this system 50k Ls away? for what purpose?

>>152633132
they already showed video of it a long time ago and it looks cool as fuck but then they totally stopped talking about it
