So I've had a vulture for a little while and want to change it up a bit. Should I buy a type 6 or a diamond back, or should I save up and replace my vulture with something else?

I refuse to circlejerk to JPGs on a mongolia kite-flying forum, so I a playing Elite: Dangerous while waiting for Star Citizen to become worthy of purchase.

Working on my Elite rank in Combat, and even using an Engineered 600mil Cr Federal Corvette in a Compromised Navigation Beacon is going extremely slowly.
Something like 5% Deadly every 3 hours or so.

Is there a way to make this faster? I started playing Elite like a couple of months ago, so I have infinite resources, just limited time.
>>
>>159219103
Never replace your Vulture-fu.

Truth is, every ship that you fly after the Vulture will be lacking in one way or another.

It's just that she's the perfect combination of seed, maneuverability, firepower, durability (shields at least) in a small hard to hit package.

The only way to move forward from a Vulture is to an FDL or Federal Corvette, but even with engineering you'd still miss one aspect of the Vulture that they don't have.

>>
>>159219937
I'm pulling this right out of my ass but in my experience all the graphics settings do is change LOD distance. so when you put it to low, all it does is make every texture a mess of gore and every ship a vague fridge shape until you get within 20m of it, which in dogfighting and walking around stations and ports, is fucking constantly, thus you get hammered with heavy loads over and over just from walking/flying around, whereas on high all that shit loads once and stays loaded, provided your machine can render it all.

This is the sneak shot we got this week of the Cutlass rework. Josh "Get all the poon" Coonz is hyped at (re)making the Cutlass and has made steady progress that we'll see later today.

Anyone want to take a shot at drawing the new cutlass flawplan/scale? This image is is from the right side of the cockpit looking towards the rear. It looks like the interior might be asymmetrical or the turret is asymmetrical on the outside.

I like space engine, and the idea of having space engine with some actual stuff to do in it sounds awesome.

I'd probably chill and just transport some people do some mining or something while enjoying the scenery with some good music, that sounds pretty good.

Is there a monthly subscription for this game and should I get the season pass?

theyve only really mentioned it being resized to reduce visual clipping on characters in the cockpit hallway area, as well as the rear and ramp being designed around having a dragonfly and cargo in there

i wouldnt expect it to look exceedingly different on the outside aside from it being a little chunkier with sharper angles
>>
>>159222110
>>159222260
Yes.

Season pass as well, but I would advise you to wait for Christmas sales.

The season pass added so much shit and the next update it's adding is one of the most awaited.

Think of Elite like a Star Citizen that's shipping shipping its parts gradually instead of in one big package.

The advantage to Star Citizen is that it's practically seamless, but at the same time debugging the entire thing as well as releasing it will take an insane amount of time.

In the end, around the time Star Citizen releases I expect Elite to have had all the big features of SC for like half a year.

But yeah Elite is good.
Hard, but good.
>>
>>159222795
Thanks for responding.

Do you think there will be christmas sales on the season pass alone, or should I hold off buying the game as a whole, till Christmas?

Also, I just now read that they will also plan on adding interiors of spaceships/starports in the future, that sounds amazing.
>>
>>159223843
The thing as a whole.

The base game is really not worth getting without the Season Pass, not even as a demo of the things to come.

There was a sale like 15 days ago.

Point is, the base game is only you sitting in a cockpit zipping around space.
Planets and moons were look but don't touch.

Then the season pass game and added planetary landing, mind you it's still on planets without atmospheres exclusively, because the atmospheric flight module is still being worked on, but it still made the space the game takes place in VERY real to me.

This season they added: Planetary landing, surface vehicles and outposts, ship tuning into a one-of-a-kind deal, space tourism and passenger charters, ship-launched fighters and hirable NPC crew.

The season only has 2 update left:
2.3 Commanders: adds character creation and avatar customization, limited ship interactivity, multi-crew with other players in the same shape

2.4: ???? They're keeping this one a surprise.

Planned upcoming seasons will add full ship interiours, space legs, atmospheric landing, alien life and even big-game hunting.

Planned features that still have no conrete season attached to them: Capital ship control basically ships that are a mile long with hundreds of crewmembers

On the wiki there is a full list of upcoming features, and I know it al sounds like a load of Sean Murray talk, I thought the same when they promised Multi-crewing in a game that didn't even have Squads at the time.
But it seems they were designing Elite from the start with those features, all ships from the release date had several empty seats, it's not something they are shoehorning into the game late in design.

All in all, at the end of its development cycle, Elite will be Star Citizen with seams.
Play that until Star Citizen is thoroughly debugged then see if the switch is worth it.

I know I prolly will for the comfy designs.

For "VR" closed area modes sure, no one can run the actual universe well though because the non existent netcode lowers your framerates

>>
>>159224421
Sounds like it is already a cool game, and it will turn into the space game I would really want it to be.

I have also been following Star Citizen for a while, but I have the feeling they are too ambitious, they want to put in everything from the start, and that might end up just being too much.

I like the approach of Elite much more to just carefuly add stuff along the way.

Fuck, I want to get into the game right now, not wait for christmas

>>159225147

Star Citizen goes for a top down approach, but my confidence in Chris Roberts is about on par as my confidence in David Braben.

It's very ambitious sure, but it's also very heavily funded, and has a longass development cycle.
The hardware requirements might be unreasonable NOW, but by the time it releases it will be trivial.

Elite: Dangerous is built bottom-up which should make it more stable, more easily debugged and more enjoyable to follow. But you will always be able to tell "ah this is 2.2 content", "this is where it gets to 3.1 territory" etc as you play, the seams are obvious.

I really enjoy Elite though, and I am already working up to Triple Elite ranking in Trading Combat and Exploration.
Trading is done, Combat I am at the last rank and Exploration is a matter of time.

I bought it full price like >>159225482 but I don't regret it one bit.

However I do understand that like all space games, it's not for everyone. So better safe then sorry.
Or it's just 30 quid who cares

Season 1 is the base game.
They added Wings, Programmable Limpit Drones, Resource Extraction sites, NPC Capital Ships, real time Political Power simulation etc etc in the first season that is the base game.

Season 2 is the only one available for purchase right now, and the content it has will still be released in first half of 2017.

No idea when Season 3 is releasing or when it will be available for pre-order.

>>159226639
I am still a noob Pathfinder but I got a couple of questions about exploring:
What are you flying? I am thinking of taking an Anaconda for such trips, with a couple of Field Maintenance Units, a couple of SRVs and a Ship-launched fighter.

With the Neutron boost and the engineered 50 LY range it should be a cakewalk to get to the core, with plenty of distractions using the SRV and SLF.

Also, why go there? I just want to get Elite rank in Exploration, don't care for anything else, can't I just roam the starts around the bubble in e helix pattern until I get the 150mil Creds needed? What advantage does the Core/Colonia/Beagle Point offer me?

Not for jumping no, you need to scoop fuel off the stars to be able to keep going, but what do I know.

I have 500 hours in and I never left the bubble.
Human civilisation stretches across 400 or so LYs that people call "The Bubble", but the galaxy is based on our own, so it stretches about 100,000LYs across. It's pretty fucking big, and pretty fucking empty.

And I am not the slightest bit jealous of all those explorer space nerds uncovering proof of intelligent life existing as they explore, not one bit.

> In the end, around the time Star Citizen releases I expect Elite to have had all the big features of SC for like half a year.
I don't disagree with you but even with EVA, Elite is unlikely to suddenly develop FPS (including onboard) without planning it from the start.
Also it will forever be compelled to -THE VISION-, I mean the procedural generation of game contents. SC have as "big feature" to handcraft a lot of stuff (only using proc gen as a tool)

No statement that any will be better than the other, but those are different feature, not equivalent.
>>
>>159227610
yeah, optimizing the netcode for the current 24 man limit isnt hard, the 3.0 part is mainly for replacing that entirely with something that isnt designed to be used for at the most 12v12 FPS servers on a small map. they can probably keep the current netcode for AC .

...Anon, it is planned from the start.

There are even videos of the development that date back to 2012 showing the animations to be used for it.
Heck Braben talks of boarding hostile ships and pirating them etc.

Plus like I mentioned Elite is even planned to have Big-game hunting, so FPS is in the works regardless.

Elite will be equivalent to Star Citizen with a different focus. And more showing seams around each module.

I don't disagree with that, I read the rest of your post, I'm just saying that those seams would make it fundamentally different. No matter how the Dev formulate it I don't see what we know of Elite Dangerous suddenly pulling you moving into your ship and jumping into the rover.

SC have to rework their ship despite a top-down approach, Elite working from the Bottom up would have to modify all assets that weren't compatible with the feature. (hence seam between exiting/entering vehicle)
That's certainly the reason they were limited to proc gen in the first place. You can hardly update hundred handcrafted base, but you can upgrade a base and regenerate it 1000 times.

I wish everything that is good for Elite Dangerous, I certainly hope their Big Game hunting won't look like a common day in NMS.

Sure Anon, Elite will never be Star Citizen, and SC will never be Elite.

I am certain I will enjoy both games (once SC hits a playable state), and will be buying a VR set as well as a good HOTAS eventually.

Until SC arrives, I will keep playing Elite:Dangerous despite my 400 hours or so, there are many things I want to try out that I haven't yet, and I have a feeling it will tide me over for a very long time.

At least long enough for Star Citizen to release, be patched and debugged and stabilised into a playable state.

>>159229920
Star Citizen will too eventually, the entire thing is being worked on, don't forget that.

Elite can't ever go back to do backline and drastic engine/netcode changes, Star Citizen still has that luxury.

I've played only Elite, but I love both games and I think they're both awesome in what's common as well as what's different.

So if I play open, are there still zones that are relatively safe? Because there are npc's hanging around like in EVE?

Or is everywhere open hunting?

What would you recommend for a new player?
>>
>>159230124
Yes you can.
The game has three modes:
Open Play: Everyone who select this mode can be matched together, most MMO-ish of the
three.

Group Play: Only people who join the same group can be matched together, great for co)op with your friends, the Galay will contain only you and your friends. Anyone else is an NPC.

Solo Mode: You are the only human player in the galaxy, everyone around you are NPCs. Most single-playerish of the three modes.


Note that you need to be online for all three modes, also playing in Open can be risky if you got to player hotspots.
Most Players you meet won't even acknowledge your existence, but the few griefers you meet can undo 3 hours of progress in 5 seconds. So keep your wits about you.

Also as Murray once said: The galaxy is a huge place. Don't be surprised if you meet no one despite being on Open all day.
>>
>>159230891
Everywhere is basically open hunting.

Law enforcement is laughable in this game, and on top of that there are nullsec systems like EVE where there is no law enforcement at all and all actions are legal.

Gotta fend for yourself.
>>
>>159230891
A lot areas are safe areas because the world is too big and there's almost nobody playing in Open.
Systems with an authority (not anarchy) systems have 'police' that responds to crimes.

The only places where you might actively see other players are the PowerPlay (pointless faction thing) conflict areas OR the community goals.

There might be someone hunting newbs every now and then, but you can almost always avoid them as well.

Play Open and be a pussy.

150 mill for the engine they have augmented and produced. the books worth of lore. the fun i'v had with the alpha. the precedents of ships not just being empty geometry. plus if it all goes shit end up i'm sure CR while release what has been worked on just like SWG did and people will finish it. hell with what they have now they could make the best damn SWG II ever. so i'm happy with where production is. anyone that's not is impatient or ignorant. and then you have those that just want to play COD and fuck with us. last night me and my wife curled up and listened the the lore on the leir system. and we have like 30 other systems to listen to.

Ignore this Anon.

Play in Solo until you learn at least how to run away from encounters that you never asked for.

playing Open is basically turning your PvP flag on.
Also, there are no in-game interactions with other pilots at the moment, it's always more profitable to go on doing your thing alone, there is no way to share missions or their reward, there is no way to work toward a common goal with another player. There is noway to hire someone, there is not way to directly trade with someone.

When you meet another player there are currently three interaction possible:

Hail them on chat, that's not a gameplay interaction but a chatroom one.

Give them fuel, which is DIRT CHEAP to the point that you can cross the entire bubble using the starter money as fuel money and still have over half left over;

Third, you can shoot them in the face and ruin their progression. Better yet if you are in a starter ship or a defenseless trader and they are in a combat ship.

Play Solo, ignore the salt mines on 4chan.
Until Fdev adds more meaningful online interaction with players, it's not worth it.

But considering what I now read about Crytek, I wonder if they would sell the engine if they went bankrupt

unless they make it some kind of insane scanning powerhouse with ewar utility in such a small package, and ofcourse if thats even important, the price is crazy

>Star marine stuff that we had 2 years ago but then threw away and started over and still wont talk about.
At this point every word they say about star marine should have a release date and an apology for the years and money wasted in mismanagement. Star Marine hype was brutally murdered more than a year ago, just give it to me and no you do not get a high five for it now.
>AC Balance and MUH EBOCATIONS
Again nothing new here, missile persistance had better mean they fucking actually fixed missiles and made them both accurate and lethal. If they removed reloads while also leaving them shit then they just made like a half dozen ships completely irrelevant until 3.0.
>More actors in grey suits doing menial labor.
No one gives ashit about your mocap studio anymore, where is SQ42, is it going to release before christmas, if not, fuck you.
>Netcode shit.
Tell us again how you are going to fix the netcode, we have never talked about this before.

>saving for JP
Fuck that noise, are thery saving the whole fucking game for JP? the juicy bits should be what in atv, and put the dry shit in JP, in text form where is easier to make sense of.
I do not want to watch a ten minute video segment about netcode debugging.
The whole paywalled information is literally the most cancerous thing about star citizen. It is thus far the only thing they do that I actually object to seriously. I should not have to pirate information about a game I payed to create.

>>159247195
Its not about if its good or bad, its about where the actual fuck it is. There was no mention of a 2.6 release. No mention of 3.0 at all except for mocap being done and why the fuck do you need mocap for a fucking sandbox release.

I want something, anything at all, to convince me that they have fucking accomplished something in the last 6 months. As it stands it seems like they built a bloody demo and then sucked each other off about how cool it was.

theyve been talking about but not showing the cutlass rework for literally a year.

If you think demanding a thing you were promised(transparency) is impatience then you are a fucking bootlicker.

I am salty because CiG has transformed from a well funded indie into the standard opaque unaccountable developer concerned only with income. They only show anything off when it has a price tag attached, they engage in duplicitous business practice to skim sales without delivering on previous promises. In particular the "flash sale" they did with the polaris jumps to mind, they put it up for sale early and diodnt annouce delays until people were literally in the room waiting to see stuff revealed so that the delays would not effect sales, that is dishonest.

We signed up to see half built ships, broken builds, concept art, WIP and all manner of other Pre-Alpha and Alpha content, and we are not getting that. They cherry pick some people to see a little more then put them under fucking NDA to not disclose what they see to the fucking people who paid for the development.

But why bully him?

First of all, being the captain of a Javelin sounds awesome. Second of all, commanding NPC captains of 2 Idris flying in formation behind you sounds even better.

This would be much harder to organize with real players unless you were in some hardcore order-following org that did what you said.

And besides, why shouldn't they be allowed to have NPC crews? Even if they're not as efficient. They've put a lot of money in to their pledge and it would suck if they had to rely on so many other people to play the way they want to.

I'm not jealous but if someone offered me the ability to do what he said, in game, I would.

How is it an exploit?

If you own 2 Idris and a Javelin, you're looking at recruiting 50 people in chat to crew them. Yeah good luck with that.

And you're missing the opportunity to actually board their ship while they are fully crewed, all their NPCs shooting turrets at you, and then walking through their corridors shooting the NPCs and taking the bridge and teabagging the guy who owns it.

Stop hating fun tbqh.

Yes it's an MMO. Just because there are other players connected to the server, doesn't mean you will interact with them unless you choose to i.e. go near them or play with them.

There's absolutely no reason not to allow people have all NPC Javelin crews other than muh feelings about it.

Last I know they are bullying Admiral not because he want NPC but because he consider that other player should pay him to crew the ship that him king of the universe.
The typical whales who consider that because he "donated" more he should be superior to everybody

NPC crew is actually the best idea you could ever have for this game. But having a fleet of several capital ship is certainly out of the question (question of balance and managing server resources)
The only reason we know it will have fleet is because Idris still need to launch fighter.

Most MMO have the players self-sufficient when they aren't doing mission, even EVE don't ask for an escort to go in null sec.

>>159306182
> maximum level ship
that's a big error here, assuming you aren't playing stupid on purpose.
SC don't consider ship as upgrade of the earlier one, not even the Polaris mind you
SC have spaceship with specific roles and stats that make each of them preferable for different use, context and budget, a Polaris isn't cheap.

For example a Polaris isn't as fast, agile and stealthy than a Retaliator. It's likely not capable of defending against one either unless its fighter is pretty good. There was a mention of Jump point size, if the Polaris need one size up it limit its mobility

Any NPC spaceship, including : Idris, Jav and Bengal are going to be filled with NPC and expected to be threat to human player, so the NPC will be there anyway. All that will change is that a player (and eventual friend) are at the top.

What don't you understand about game balance ?
They can field NPC solo Idris, they need to, and it's not like anybody expect NPC crew to be as good as (some) players.
>>
>>159308465
>It's likely not capable of defending against one either unless its fighter is pretty good.

Uh no, one Retaliator isn't going to be 1v1ing a Polaris just like one Gladius isn't going to solo a SH.
Again why field a fighter if anyone can afford to field a capital? That kind of power should come from combined effort so the power gap between individual players isn't fucking ludicrous.

But I guess you want your purchase to guarantee you win.

if youre soloing a cap ship, youre gonna lose

if youre using a cap ship period as a ship by itself without freinds in ships around you, you're probably gonna lose to noobs in auroras

if youre using a cap ship, you've acquired assloads of money to run it in the first place -hopefully by playing the game for some time to earn that money, you've learned that being alone is probably a bad idea- and you're off to do something of great importance along with alot of other people in cap ships with alot of support.

>>159309656

Ben and Chris have already said solo operating larger ships will be inefficient at best. Have you tried micro managing the screen consoles in the fighters and currently playable multiplayer ships? Now blow that out with the systems to operate the larger ships. Smaller ships would just run circles around you or get away quickly, no one here is saying a solo large ship can just be defeated by a small fighter, eventually the larger ship will win. Ben has also said even if you have large ship you are going to require a smaller ship for doing solo errands and grinding money when needed to operate larger ships.

When the game starts owners of large ships are going to have to grind with smaller scale ships and missions to pay the operating costs of larger ships (this was in one of the most recent Bensday podcasts).

Idiot, at release all ships can only be obtained playing the game. If you have the money for an Idris you only need some more for NPC crew.

You are not defending yourself from whales, you are acting like an entitled prick.
Why should a single players be forbidden to play alone just because you don't like it ?
Do you have some autistic problem with the idea of loosing against an NPC before you even get to the player behind them ?

btw, a Polaris don't have a "Capital" shield, it's lightly shielded. So if a Retaliator can kill an Orion with ease, it can kill a Polaris, at best I give you it will be an epic fight and only two tali should be able to do it with ease.

And Gladius versus SH ? If the SH pilot is a moron who believe ship are powerlevel he'll likely be killed even by a NPC pirate in an Aurora.

>>159311075

Because every player will do that to stay competitive ffs

If all of the multicrew ships are solo viable they are no longer multicrew ships and the idea of horizontal progression is invalidated.

>And Gladius versus SH ? If the SH pilot is a moron who believe ship are powerlevel he'll likely be killed even by a NPC pirate in an Aurora.

Because some content is solo and some content is for groups. If all content is doable solo that just means you've removed all the group content from the game and done exactly what you're accusing others of doing, forcing your playstyle on people who want to do group stuff.

You do have some autistic problem if you believe that Star Citizen is only a matter of PvPing. You won't find players to board your ship only so you can be "the best", I can already imagine you raging against your human-crew because they didn't obey you and let you win against a player with NPC crew.

Player will play multicrew for fun and if they want to, not because some retarded dads-like jerk can't accept the idea that some NPC can replace him.
I'm already imagining everybody blacklisting you because you can't accept others' playstyle. It will be cool to be able to herd moron in other instance.

That's not even horizontal progression, even when you'll be able to buy a Polaris you will still need ship dedicated to other job, a Polaris can't replace a Retaliator or a Crucible.

> a CS player can kill someone with a knife but that doesn't mean the knife is equal in power to an AK.

A rocket-launcher is more powerful than an AK, it doesn't mean it is more useful than one. Just like your AK will do shit if the gameplay ask you to use a knife as a knife.

If 2 multicrew ships end up being viable solo then why would I be raging against my human crew? I'd have an NPC crew so I'm not gimping myself. Any other players might as well have their own ship instead.
But then that ship isn't really a multicrew anymore is it?

Ok it's time we address that absurdity of yours.
It is still multicrew because a NPC character is still a crew by any definition you can go by.

And what kind of mental problem make you believe that unless you force player together they won't do it for fun when they want to ?

Btw, I do player an MMO like the one you describe, is ARK Survival Evolved acceptable to you ? And that's a game where having army of NPC dinosaur work great with multiplayer.
Plus you are missing a critical distinction with most MMO : Instancing.

SC have instancing.
If you have 100 players at the same spaceport they won't all actually be there simultaneously, and they don't all want to play with pirate or griefer (which can be cast away in a different instance).

Private servers exist precisely because sometime you do want to play with friends that you know will play fair and respect your playstyle, rather than an herd of entitled prick trying to gank you all the time because they can't accept other people having fun without PVPing.

So stop being entitled, it make no harms to you for a player to crew his Idris with NPC. Quite the contrary it mean that if you can exploit their limitation you'll have more Idris to board/destroy with your player-crewed ship.

Your logic is really based on nothing but your lack of imagination. Innumerable basic game-balance trick can make sure the game isn't only populated with Polaris yet allow NPC crew

Help me out, /scg/. I have a F7A kit laying around and a shitters Hornet with 6mi which I can't melt because I upgraded it from the referral reward Gladius. I could use up a LTI token Argo and upgrade that to a Hornet now that slightly discounted upgrades are on sale. I have a Starfarer->Gemini upgrade I could melt ($40) and CCUs to turn the 6mi Hornet into a MISlancer or Gladiator. Wat do?
>>
>>159320046
why can't you buy it right now?

despite how much money they made on stuff like the polaris, and how much they could have by today from it, they try to limit the concept sales so they don't have way too many people whining and moaning about how their $750 jpg isnt ingame yet. most people who own one right now are probably not going to be whining in 4 patches when it's still a concept.

dont upgrade your hornet to another hornet, youre only paying for the center module. even super hornet is just the center turret module.

can you not even melt it for the difference you paid to make it a hornet? not really understanding your question unless youre asking for an opinion

get a gladiator, save the modular ships for UEC buys

Wrong. Super Hornet is the only one that's a different Hull.

Then you're better off CCUing an Argo/token to the Super hornet then use the F7A upgrade when it's enabled

>>
>>159321496
well either way it's up to you. a lancer MIS or gladiator will almost guaranteed be more useful and potentially make more money than a super hornet.

I believe LTI will move with that package though so you might as well get the LTI SH and turn it into whatever larger ship you'd plan on actually using for the PU. might be one of your only chances to apply LTI to alot of ships at the nov sale for a very long time, if not the last time.

You mean nobody intelligent.
We can't make prognostic on the quality of the AI, but the task and minigame needed to control a ship are more than simple enough for NPC crew to outdo human unless the developer nerf them. There more than enough game to demonstrate that.

What will be much more interesting is to see how they deal with boarding, there I give human winner unless the NPC are booster with inhuman aiming skill.

I think the two question go together.
You need to be able to form a fleet with a few players (~5) without needing them all aboard
and you need to be able to do mission alone in an Idris without depending on any other players (if they disconnect or you can't find someone you want)

The question came a lot here because of how specialized the Retaliator is. It's a meme to criticize NPC crew but everybody would love to play the big game without having to deal with potential idiot.
One of the critical feature this game will need is a reputation system for crew.

If you want real physics you can't use a NASA spacesuit to survive in Antarctica.

In space you don't need to keep the heat "in", unlike the cliché space isn't cold, space is nothing, to get rid of heat you can only use radiation.
In an atmosphere you don't use radiation you use all of the other conduction, convection...etc
To cut short, a suit made for EVA could be absolutely horrible at surviving a cold or hot atmosphere.

Now I wonder how they'll deal with planet with weak atmosphere, we have sound in space so I doubt they'll simulate sound in a thin atmosphere or at high pressure

>>
>>159334378

You're wrong. The correct answer is: it depends. A space suit can have insulation to help survive cold environments. The Soviets had to design a nuclear heater for their remote controlled rover the Lunokhod to keep it operational on the dark side of the moon back in the 1970s. So depending on where you are in a solar system in relation to its sun; it can get quiet cold even in direct sunlight.

While you are correct that the NASA space suit uses a cooling system, no person or government has sent people beyond the orbit of the moon.

Look man its obvious you don't know what you're talking about at all. The very concept of a 'Cockholster' is so utterly absurd I won't even bother trying to discredit it because it inherently discredits itself.

Besides, everyone other than goons know that cock sleeves are superior in almost every possible way. Infact, not only can they be found in ancient egypt, but they're the only logical accessory to have in an EVA suit as this... this... 'cockholster' would only hamper movement which would be ABOSLUTELY detrimental in 6DOF!

So fuck off goony, and take your damn cockholsters with you.

I'm the one you answered,
First notice that I used the conditional tone.
Second, I'm more educated than you are on this topic. You have to learn about the difference between heat transfer by radiation or conduction. As I said space isn't cold, but your body however is hot and this heat isn't pumped and radiated away you can literally melt.
Your rover explanation is a misunderstanding due to the cliché.
The rover unlike the human body did not produce heat and radiated it away very fast, leading to huge difference in thermal-dilatation and so mechanical failure.

An human space-only suit wouldn't need to produce heat or to be "insulated" for heat transfer per conduction/thermal-exchange with a local atmosphere.
We don't need to go on another planet to know that if you landed one in Antarctica the suit could be like being nearly naked because it was built to conduct heat from the body to the heat-radiator in a way that cannot be cancelled easily.
In fight, even on an airless planet, the mere contact of your boots or your suit with an ultrahot/ultracold surface could be enough to kill you in an strange "explosion".

TL;DR
You'll need suit specially built for hot or cold environment including high/low pressure. A space-only suit would only kill you.

OK so if you fly low enough the anti air of planet bases can't hit you. They still fire in your direction but can't depress low enough to hit you. Couple that with anti ground turrets not firing at you and all the threat left are skimmers.

To do that you need a very small ship so maybe a sidewinder could do it but ship launched fighters are just perfect because they're cheap as fuck too and if you get killed you can just respawn at the mothership you'll have left out of harm's way

Perfect for skimmer missions!

I was thinking that the Mantis on the turret would be just a shield ripper and use the Sawbuck to finish them off.

>>159352551
if you've ever been in that turret you'll see it's a horrible field of view. mantis would be fine if the projectile speed wasnt garbage. unless youre shooting at a stationary target the pip will not be in a good spot to aim at. not to mention how bad turret controls are combined with PU performance.

get panthers if you want infinite-firing spam that will actually be effective in that turret. you can do what you want but it's more about what's easiest for a random shitter in your turret to use with horrible FOV, slip n slide controls, no zoom, and 10 fps combat

>mfw infinite subscriber REC ive had for months and will never possibly burn thru in this next year
>>
>>159352603
not exactly time effective if you enjoy having an effective weapon load out on multiple ships at any point in the PU before it's all buyable ingame

unless you enjoy racing or crashing on wave 18 of vanduul swarm for less than 2k rec
>>
>>159353421
So you're saying that you have that much Rec from just being a sub? 10 or 20 dollar?
>>
>>159321934
>MIS or gladiator
guaranteed NOT

Missiles will cost and sink your win
Torpedos will be fucking expensive

So a gladiator is shit for making money, MIS depends much you use your missiles or the guns

tl:dr: missiles expensive, lazer guns(no ammo) grinding/farming
>>
>>159354576
did a 1 year sub almost a year ago 400k flat slab o rec that i still have 340k of. i was a noob and just assumed REC would let me rent ships for the PU since it was a janky ass alpha.

assuming weapon rentals will carry over once my sub ends or i cancel it i'll just add infinite weeks onto my weapons rentals and have like 3 years of weapons. i assume PU rec guns are going away whenever theyre buyable ingame tho
>>
>>159356265

hangar flair better be fucking permanent. ima be pissed if the REC/rented items go away the day i cancel too. i can't say it was worth as much as i paid for it but it's certainly nice never giving a fuck about what im renting, and having enough to try out entire new loadouts on a whim

note that i've also had a scythe + monthly rotation ship in my hangar since they started that, pretty sure i basically own that scythe til sub ends

without netcode there is no game

90% off all players cant run SC better than 30fps

alone a starfarer almost kills the server when it spawn at olisar

And fun starts 100+ people
>>
>>159358548
nobody is disagreeing, the current stock cryengine netcode that shouldnt even work for the PU on paper is being replaced @ 3.0

hes just saying how if they openly focus on one thing someone will jump in and complain about them neglecting another. community sometimes doesnt know what the priorities are to making the game they want
>>
>>159358847
They are also changing how they stream data in even offline.
>>
>>159351647
why they're even keeping the slow ones I have no idea. the 'combat animations' should just be the animations.
>>
>>159360048
Yeah, why are they keeping the slow ones? They don't offer any sort of immersion advantage.
>>
>>159358847
>replaced @ 3.0
naive
>>
>>159360192
they can keep them for NPCs for all I care but players shouldn't be subjected to that hsit. I foresee a future patch where they make the fast ones the standard because nobody ever wants to use them and new players are confused about why they are 'bugged' and move so slowly.
>>
>>159360265
it's like 1/3rd of what 3.0 is, it's not an option. you think planets are gonna work with the current netcode? the server can barely handle 10 people idling at port olisar currently
>>
>>159360265
3.0 is defined by a couple things; full planets, and fixed netcode. if that stuff isn't done, they don't release 3.0. much like now we are seeing the evocati testing 2.5.x because star marine which is the defining aspect of 2.6 isn't ready yet.

He said 3.0 not 2.6
>>
>>159362483
3.0 is not possible with the current netcode. it doesnt need to be the "final" 1,000 man server or whatever theyre going for, but it needs to be anything other than what it is now.
>>
>>159362894
They've said they're releasing 2.6 with the new "early" netcode, the same that 3.0 will be launching with - the foundation code. I really wouldnt' consider Star Network v0.1 to be an issue right now for 3.0

i mean optimizing the current netcode for AC is part of it, they can probably keep that netcode for SM for a while.

3.0 is going to need the whole shebang to function on a basic level, especially if they want 3.0 to be that point where they can just start pumping out content while having all the basic framework there for the first time

I was disappointed in this week's ARtV. I was trying to fap to Sandi's breasts but that x-wing in front of them was distracting.

By the way, does anyone have any Sandi nip slips?

The discord is for bug reporting. they don't need any more from 2.5, and the avocado have there own reporting place so right now there is NO reason to keep it on.
>>
>>159421157
Agreed, there is NO reason to keep something they pay nothing for and requires no effort to run online, even for a game that doesn't exist

people were complaining because there were TONS of people coming on asking for updates, and trolling. instead of letting it cont. toxic like. instead of making staff mod it. they shut it down. PLUS there chat system will be only in 2.6 so it's a good way to get people ready to jump on.
>>
>>159421502
oh no, people asking for updates?

How terrible, SHUT IT DOWN

fuck off goon. like i said. i was there. you couln't carry on a slight conversation with out jack asses popping in screaming about scams, or ear piercing high pitch tones playing at max volume. it was toxic and i'm glad it's gone. i just hope they get their whatever it'sashit chat thing online soon.

Why would people report bugs via an online voice chat service when there are official bug report forms?

This is actually getting a bit annoying, both here and leddit there are shitters saying "Wah they haven't shown us anything on 2.6 ever!" And its been literally a day since they showed us a map for 2.6 like god damn.

Oh a map?

Godamn thats real progress from when they showed us that map from PAX 2014 with live gameplay.

Really gone forward from that point, huh?

Or in a game mode that is actually fun or structured like Star Marine.

PAX Australia got me hyped for them releasing anything passable, and they've been dragging their feet ever since. From the "weekly updates" to saying absolutely fuck all, back to this "Soon" bullshit.

Snore. I'm getting a refund.

Illphonic wasn't merging the code as RSI was updating it. every time they got illphonics update it was a different code branch. even the fps models movement were coded different then then hanger modules which all the animations they had made were based on so every week they would send them back with a list of changes they needed to make to the code but WHILE they were fixing those others were adding more to the game with the flawed code so they would go "well we made the fixed but billy made some really good progress on the old branch so we are going to fix that branch instead of the one we sent you last week." in other words they were stubborn and lazy and didn't communicate properly and ended up making a stand alone FPS game that couldn't be meshed in to the main game. that way we were set back so far from 2014. if that had not happened we would never had to look to the guys at foundry 42 for help, or realised there were 10 or so people from the CE3 dev team that were so ready for a job. so thank you Illphonic. you set the bar high and low at the same time, and have no idea how to work cooperatively on a big project.

You're the reason this shit is delayed. Off yourself.

No, I'm legitimately getting a refund now because my patience has finally run out.

I'll buy back in when they finally release this stuff, if they ever do.

>>159424846
>I'm the reason its been delayed

Doesn't even make sense.

That said, nah. There is no meaning to FPS right now, its not fun, and its BARELY functional.

So assuming you're aren't being a shitter, I can expect your return in... say two weeks?

I don't imagine the live stream will be the godsend people are wanting it to be, but it'd be hilarious if it is.

that makes no sense. you can no longer get a refund from RSI as they updated there TOS. so sell your shit on the grey for less then you payed just to pay more in 6 months when shit comes out. who are you kidding. your too lazy too do anyof that so stop whining and go fight a war IRL, and learn some discipline.

>>159422245

But lets be realistic, not going to happen.

he's right though, claiming to get a refund so you can buy back in later is fucking stupid and marks you as the dipshit you are, because the price only ever goes up.
