xh for Best Ship; Destroyer of worlds, Crusher of M50s.soon

>>153363125
Hopefully soon. I remember the ship feedback guy making a Gladiator thread a while ago.

It is just not realistic for someone to purchase a Huge Multicannon, that is literally the size of a sidewinder, and have it installed on their Anaconda in a matter of seconds. These things should take time. There should be a time delay during which your ship does not have anything in that hardpoint. It will force players to commit to a given loadout and not change it too often. The actual time delay should be based on how long it takes to swap a Deck Gun on a US Navy Ship. Perhaps 10% of that time would be appropriate.

Similar thing should be done with thrusters, FSD, and other (smaller) hardpoints).

Letting players have instant outfitting just opens the door to a very slippery slope into the abyss of players abusing outfitting.

Let me know your thoughts.

>>153363125
What's wrong with the Gladiator? Other than the stupid bubble turret. Rocket pods will be added later as an option for any ship that can fit them

>>153363172

>>153363172
>>153362684

The thing that makes M50 swarms work is that they can shoot energy weapons forever, but they're fast and have the smallest profile out of any jump capable ship thus far. The Blade is going to be a massive target, so you no longer have the advantage of SH gun convergence going around the hull.

>>153363217

You faggots really allowing this? That's the code of the guy who made it, and he's got it set so it shows up first every time you open it for the first time. Just see for yourself, open it in a tab then close it and open it again, you'll have his code.

>>153363230
I disagree, everything is standardized and setup to be inserted into standard component slots. At least for the Federation where everything is automated and run by AIs, ship modifications should be near instant where a giant robot arm pops out, swaps out the part the moment you select it from a menu.

Imperials on the other hand do everything with slaves, so it should take hours to have them hoist a new gun into place.

I think that was mentioned in the thread by some dev. With the current setup the turret gunner can't exit as long as there's a pilot in the seat, which is something they want to get rid of.

>>153363230

>lets slowdown an already slow game even more

Combat ships should have built in guns that can be swapped with other guns that do not need to be retracted or deployed. Non-combat ships should have hardpoints as they are now. Engineers should allow modifications to non-combat ships to add things like the alternate variants of Type-7s that people post here, so you can make a Type-7 FUCK YOU gunship that is basically an A-10. Hardpoints as they are right now are fucking dumb.

Let me know your thoughts.

Brainstorm/creative time:

How would you make pvp/piracy fun and fair within the currently known SC/PU limitations and goals? I.e. minimize griefing, chore, maximise fun, rewards (for any party included in the gameplay mechanic). What would be the incentives, how would you combat either extreme piracy or extreme carebearing within the game concepts?

Optionally post a nice ship because pretty pictures.

>>153363792
More piracy in a system = more/bigger missions for security forces

I really want an influence system where if a system is heavily infested with pirates, you can set up a 'pirate base' somewhere in the system.
Kinda like how Grimhex is hidden among the asteroid belt at Yela.

When one of those is present you could ramp up the security force payouts and have a 'community goal' type mission where you prepare to assault the base and drive the pirates out of the system.

In the universe now. First time i've had time to play. Is there a way to travel faster? MY mustang is slow as shit and it's going to take days to reach these mission checkpoints.

How does that address griefing/extreme piracy?
Why a trader would visit this particular system if it's so infested with pvp (let's not assume pirate vs trader is going to be fair, because it isn't.)

What's the function of a pirate base? What's the mechanical purpose behind it?

>>153364161
>Why a trader would visit this particular system

Not him, but a trader's only reason to visit some place is profits. So unless the profit isn't worth it, they wouldn't visit these systems. Based upon the other anon's idea, maybe stealth/escorts can play a role for traders to get to these systems. But as far as I'm concerned, not every place should be accessible to every role easily.

>blade
>massive

It's smaller than a Gladius anon, you know it's intended to be the fastest and most manuverable ship right? And with the capacity to mount 3x S2 Vanduul dakka

>>153364161
The idea is meant to be dynamic, so you have the 'main' pirate systems and from there pirates can grow their 'influence' into lower security systems via pirating and building these outposts.

The base is there as a dumping ground for pirates.
Where you sell your cargo/salvage. It''s basically a beating heart of piracy in a system without having to jump through JPs.

if there is a proper security response like in EVE in high security systems, there is no 'griefing'.
Going into low security systems IS consent to PvP and there will be mechanics to make being a 'pirate' more punishing.

In E:D it's just griefing because there are basically zero risks involved and 'security' is a joke.

as for traders, do they need to visit the area? I mean you could make profits substantially more if a station is in dire need of supplies due to piracy or perhaps the system is in a key spot that acts as a shortcut between high security systems.

Anyone know what CIG intends to do with missiles eventually?
Right now they're useless because if you don't have any flare you're just fucked but that never happens anyway because you star with about ten gorillion of them so you basically never ever get hit.
I feel like if you fire your flare too soon it shouldn't do anything and if you do it too late the missile explosion will hit you anyway.

That's a good idea, but on the other hand the profits would have to be even better to justify buying the escort.
Balancing around profit/risk/reward is actually quite difficult and easy to exploit though.
In the above scenario (very profitable route with piracy) most of the time either group (Pirates vs Escort) would bring overwhelming forces that would steamroll the opposition (i.e. try hard pvp group only for the kills; carebear org that escorts players for free because sunshine and magic) making the encounter pretty onesided (not every time, but I think you can see how quickly it would devolve, given how it usually plays out in mmo's). At least that what I think.

>>153364702
>if there is a proper security response like in EVE in high security systems, there is no 'griefing'.

Explain how it would work. AI?

>Going into low security systems IS consent to PvP and there will be mechanics to make being a 'pirate' more punishing.
Agree, that's a given. But what are the mechanics and how both parties can enjoy them, without feeling cheated most of the time?

>>153365081
>not 2.5

>>153364658
M50 and 350R are faster

>>153365189
>Hard to balance

It woulds like it would get quickly balanced by bringing in large amounts of resources into the system, bringing in actual security and pushing out the pirates, which would then lower the profits back to a reasonable amount.

But then again, this is all speculation based on nothing.

Anyone want a friend who has no idea what he's doing?

>>153365081
Problem with 2.5 is now enemy debris instantly loses all velocity, and since neutron cannons only have 700m range, you end up killing yourself by crashing into your target

>>153365430
Friend in what?

>>153365332
So basically, a very fluid and responsive system that would change the profit ratio based on the current security/piracy of the system/route?

>>153365323
Q&As say otherwise. Does your uncle work for CIG by any chance?

>>153365867

They really need to introduce something like "Minor CGs" or just a way for certain systems to broadcast that they need player assistance. I know that they have a thing that say "these are some systems that are in war/famine/etc." but it's useless because finding which are near you or whatever is hopeless.

>>153366130
>Empire

The empire took over and gave smuggling missions which also gave empire faction rank. I don't know how robigo is nerfed now though. people mentioned it's fine.

>>153364483
Not until you actually learn how to play sata, you /sportswear/ poseur. And I'm not talking about those shitty hangar games but the big arena.

>>153365189
Militia or the merchant guild basically need to partially subsidize and inflate ship escort pay in order to make both accepting escort jobs appealing to player pilots AND hiring escorts appealing to merchant players.

In a realism-focused system with pure player-to-player transactions to arrange for safety, an escort's job would have to be very unrewarding for the economy of it to work, which is stupid from a fun, balance and incentive perspective.

>>153365698
Nul, Nyx, Cathcart, and maybe Stanton.

>>153366182
It would be great if they introduced that, but then they would have to let players actually affect the game world first. And I'm certain that that is too much of an undertaking for FTroop. It's a shame we don't have a dynamic galaxy that reacts to changes in itself.

I prefer to pick up some artifacts at hades, then blockade run straight to Banu Space to offload them. Between the collectors and Banu themselves, there's a good market to sell them there without leaving a trail.

MAXIMUM PROFIT

>>153366367

One thing I thought about is adding a thing where the game would generate "CGs" of a sort where systems would generate missions that are higher paying or whatever. Kinda like it would generate a CG, but not on the scale of a CG, like kill ships or bring this certain product back, and scatter it around the bubble. I think it'd be nice just to add some flavor to the galaxy and so we'd have some better paying missions like the recent Empire CG one since missions are so worthless right now unless they're smuggling missions.

>>153365867
One of the problems I find with ED is I don't really see the difference between an anarchy system and a high security core system. When carrying cargo I'm just as likely to be interdicted by a pirate in either. If being "Wanted" was a death warrant bringing in an endless stream of navy ships in high sec system it'd have some kind of meaning. I shouldn't be seeing "Wanted" ships trying to dock at high sec stations in the first place, let alone every 2 minutes. Smugglers yes.

That's sounds good. If we assume that the most desired concept and ultimate goal in SC is money (to buy ships, to upgrade ships, to fuel "power"/personal goals, to play the org game etc.) then subsidizing player-to-player contracts is a good idea. As you mentioned, it incentives player transactions and provides an established framework in-game (subsidies from guilds that the player character can join (not necessarily a merc group, but for example a bus driver group too for space truckers), bulletin/ad system etc.). It would be good to see something along these lines.

>minimize griefing

Attacking other players should increase some sort of bounty to make your life in the verse harder, but if you manage to disable and enter someone elses ship and steal things it should be reward > risk if you can pull it off.

Hoarding up on guns and gooning down innocent players shouldn't be viable, leaving players alive instead of killing them should always be the objectively better option, unless you are RP'ing.

Think FTL where you get more by killing the enemy crew and dismantling the ship than just blowing it up. A pirate who goes for the minimum risk/lowest reward should be finacially unviable to discurage mindless CoD in space /dayZ-immakillthemall gameplay.

>combat either extreme piracy or extreme carebearing

pvp per area. if a carebear wants to get to the juicy trade routes, he has to go into more dangerous areas where outlaws are encouraged due to the opportunities for lawless playstyles. People who are anxious of pvp can stay in the easymode galaxies. Freelancer did a fairly good job in that regard.

I mean, say you have a group of 20 people

If player #1 kills #2-#20 he accumulates a bounty. The bounty would have to be one that stacks as the streak rises, otherwise there really isn't an incentive for others to kill this "griefer."

Now, player #2 kills player #1 to reap bounty of a 19 kill streak. He then kills #3-#20 to build his own kill streak.

#3 then kills #2, then #1 and #4-20

Alright, I want to get into SC and i'm thinking of using joysticks but i'm woefully ignorant to the whole thing. The concept I had in my head was a setup that incorporates joysticks, m+k and maybe an Xbox control for good measure. I figure i'll have something for every situation ya know?

So should I go single joystick, double, joystick and throttle? Are there any DIY guides on an easy way to make a little setup for them or should I just plop them onto a desk?

I'm not rich by any means so keep that in mind but i'm willing to save cash from now until next year to get some decent stuff. It doesn't have to be luxury.

Mission cargo from Robigo/Sothis.

You need cargo space and a fuel scoop, beyond that you'll need good engines and a cool running ships for smuggling for Robigo. You'll need larger cargo space for Sothis since it's not smuggling but takes up more space.

Currently own the Mustang Alpha. Is it worth upgrading to an Aurora LN for ~$5 or are there periodic events/sales that I would be better off waiting for?

>>153369165
Oh fuck, I just understood what you're talking about, they're just missions that pay a shitton, then?

That is true. A mechanic against that would be permadeath and inconvenience like reset-timer. Bascially, a group could spend their time more effective doing other stuff than that mindless grinding.

hard to pull of crimes should be more valuable in the long run than outright killing other players. Maybe a lower tier of outlaws where certain smuggling/piracy outpost might even refuse to serve killers. Kill-streaks should not be valuable at all.

>>153369379
It's not even that you can't wander around them, they just seem tiny in general. I met up with a friend in his vulture, I was in my Cutter. He was recording and I checked out his video. I should have looked significantly bigger than him, since I got close enough to see cockpit to cockpit. My Cutter didn't look that much bigger. The sense of scale is way off in ED and I don't know why.

It's because there are very little small things to compare the ships to.
The best way to get a sense of the size is to either fly up to the cockpit and see the tinny tiny pilot inside or get in the SRV since it's comparable to modern vehicles in size.

Huh, I thought the Blade was just an overpriced Gladius. Sounds like a cool ship to capture/buy after launch, I'm always in the market for more speed.

I wish different classes of ships got slightly different warp-in effects in ED.
Like as the mass increase the warp-in gets more and more aggressive, maybe even have a little bit of that storm stuff that capital class ships have show up for the biggest stuff.

So landing at a station and station crew start unloading/loading the ship with space forklifts or hooking up the ship to hoses? Maybe a 3rd person camera with "Docking Camera View" in the corner option when landed. No change to ship landing/takeoff speeds, just a cosmetic thing.

That seems to be a issue with how close you can get to the other ship.
You tend to bounce of of a ships shields at a set distance relative to the ship size.
So the bigger the ship the further away you have to stay.
I think on my corvette the shield gap is like 100m, combined with the cockpit of whatever ship you're in becoming your 'head' it makes things look smaller than it really is.

Perfect, was just about to post about the Merchantman.

Starfarer increased by about 53.8462% when it was finished, from $195 to $300 so we should increase a similar 50% price increase on the Merchantman from $250 to $375 when it's flight ready.

It's also the best ship.

The capability to refuel is still planned, they just didn't model and attach the refueling boom yet. I'm quite certain that was stated multiple times when the ship became hangar ready.

I think Evocati and PTU is the best thing to happen to SC.

Thousands of dedicated backers get to help find and replicate bugs in the game they're funding to ensure the devs have the best time fixing them. We're essentially a tremendous, free QA team. It truly is wonderful. Main issue is the patcher, but even still I think It's all amazing for the development of SC.

>Max Crew:

>>153374665
The starfarer price increase was because of the huge fps stage sized interior they added. They won't maje an interior that complicated again, besides the idris. Also people weren't sitting on tons of starfarer upgrade tokens due to the original pricing. While the BMM had several 0 cost CCU options available. I don't expect the merchantman to go up more that 20 at the most. And more than likely most of the original feature scaled down like what happen to the vanguard and khartu-al.

>>153374392
I remember melting everything I had back then and then missing the sale somehow maybe because one of the ships I had was too recent or something and then asking support to let me buy it because I liked it that much and realized I don't need like 3 ships

The reason the Merchantman has a 8 person crew is simply because Banu are twelve feet tall, so you need 4 people to hold the others up high enough to reach the interface and controls.

If you invest your money in some tall cargo crates, you can cut that crew requirement down by half.

I can't play it without signing the new shitty ToS, so i'm asking /SCG/

Next season really needs to be spess legs. It would add so much to the sense of scale and immersion to be able to walk around stations and the inside of ships. Also I'd prefer the ability to walk around first so whenever the other seasons come out with more content I can explore that on foot.

Of course. You can now play in a Universe with other players!

The game crashes a lot though, ships will randomly eject players who are not in seats/beds when traveling, ships will randomly explode when activating Quantum Travel and there are some progress saves don't happen when they should.

Who cares? Who spends money they really need on this anyway, if you are so retarded that you spend your food money on video games then you deserve everything you get.

I was a day 1 kickstarter backer, and my ToS from KS includes clauses for refunds if CIG missed milestones (2014 lol)

the new (june 2016) ToS does two things:
- removes the clauses for refunds
- removes all obligations / deadlines for a finished product, or milestones

So, i have my Kickstarter package that i can't play without relinquishing my rights to a refund.

I know from experience, that if you try to get a refund through CIG, they will do their absolute best to get you to make the mistake of signing the new Terms of Service.

Freelancer is in my top 10, so i really want to believe in SC, but i'm also a broke college student now and i could buy a textbook with that pledge money. I backed a game with a large but achievable scope asking $2m. The project has ballooned well beyond what i think ANY company could actually deliver.

FYI if you haven't accepted the june 2016 terms of service, you are 100% entitled to a refund. They will bullshit you though.

What a poor choice, why even pledge if money is that tight?

I have more than enough income to waste some on this game, why would I care about a few hundred dollars I can earn back in one days worth of work?

I agree. I'm not getting my hopes up though since we're almost 3/4 of a year into horizons and still the only thing we can do is land on baron, scaled up asteroids.

I really only wanted an update on the game but since there's so many shills in this thread i'm just gonna link this:

http://www.dereksmart.org/2016/07/star-citizen-the-refund-debacle/

There's a guide to getting your money back from these thieves.

Tl;Dr:
- Contact Andrew Wai from the LA department of consumer affairs. http://dcba.lacounty.gov/wps/portal/dca

LA Consumer affairs has jurisdiction over the CIG offices in the US, so they're the people best equipped for hassling CIG on your behalf

- File a formal complaint with the Federal Trade Commission.

- Initiate a chargeback through your bank or credit card provider. They will have a fuck of a time disputing the charges because they didn't actually deliver a product.

Please, keep shilling and i'll post this every day until you twats have an aneurysm.

Wow, you sure went from "man, I'm so hopeful about this game coming out, what should I do bros, do you know about refunds and ToS, such a poor broke college student" to "I hate Roberts so much I want to wear his wife's face as a mask" right quick. Thanks for making it obvious at least.

Is this the birth of an epic new meme?

Is it normal to have frequent half-second pauses during gameplay of SC 2.5? Or do I need to upgrade to the latest 1000 dollar video card now?

I wish stupid millenials like you had to get a license before being allowed to spend food money on kickstarter because that's basically what it is and there are still morons trying to refund a 4 year old pledge.

Could also be general RAM issues.
I have 16gb myself, but I'm being told 32gb is recommended. I've seen the game use almost 8gb of RAM and my 660ti only manages to play well in the hangar, though generally playing is "okay".

Playing yesterday with a random small org, one of the guys said they had 32gb and it was a greater improvement over 16gb, let alone their old 8gb.

>>153383890
>>153384284
What exactly is the 660Ti's upgrade path? It's in such a weird space. Like what's the card that is directly above it?

>>153385103
At this point, anything from an 980 to the new 10X0 cards.

>>153385103
Do they still make 660Ti"s the 1060/1070/1080 is the new thing.

>>153385435
>>153385284
>>153385103
good that SC will need another few years, when those 10X0 cards will cost (much?) less

>>153385103
just don't buy anything ending in 50, though if they put out a 1050 it'll probably run SC fine

>>153385435
>Do they still make 660Ti"s
Doubtful, they likely still have some around though.

I can't be the only one that hates the word "verse" right? It just seems so cheesy and cringy and it doesn't really shorten the word universe since it's spelled differently.

t. autismo

>>153385435
You're wasting money getting a 660ti in this day.
They have been good, but you really need to consider a greater card.
