/scg/edg/ Elite Star: Dangerous Citizen Episode #88: No End in Sight

Do we have any updates from evocati anon? Last we heard, they planned to remove cruise and allowing afterburning up to the old cruise speeds, but it was taking longer than expected to implement it.

>SC will have zero grind, because the "typical" definition of "grind" in MMOs revolves around advancement, and there is none in SC. For example, there's enough content in the game to get you to 59, but you have to grind, killing mobs, to get to 60. Or the only way to get exalted with a reputation is grinding daily quests. Etc.

>Now, if you mean "do tasks multiple times", then that is 100% on you. For example, being a hauler is likely going to be a bit grindy. Why? Because haulers haul. It's what they do. Being a bounty hunter will be far less grindy. Being an explorer will be long, boring grinds followed by brief, flaring excitement, just like science. Being a trader will be dependent upon how much time/energy you invest into it.

>Will you have to bring 10 rat tails to a quest NPC 1000 times in order to get him to give you the Breastplate of Argon? No. But SC is going to be a lot like real life, and real life can be somewhat grindy around the edges, so I guess the best answer is "it depends upon what you want out of SC".

Fuck this community

>>160171904
No updates since Nov. 8. New build probably sometime this week.

>>160171904

There's been a lot of talk but fucking nothing actually getting done.

>>160172021
>>160172038
That's what I assumed, but was hoping they got around to actually doing something. Cheers for the update.

>>160173616
Doesn't mean they have to.

>>160173616
Oh right the "no advancement" in your original post.
Yes that's retarded.
Of course there's advancement.
But a grind is still not going to be there in the same way as ED even.
If we're to believe CR.

>>160174813
I just hope the grind is hidden like the vision in quantum drive.

I love euro truck sim. Elite is not euro truck sim and is aggravating as fuck just because frameshift is such a lackluster and tedious travel method.

>>160171925
>im falling for replying to anything related to this argument again

the game is based almost entirely on orgs that will have massive economies and fleets on day 1 so no content is really gonna be off limits for anyone

as in individual though? sorry but youre not getting a javelin any time soon if youre starting with an aurora. if you want to solo an mmo thats based around group play from the bottom up, youre gonna be struggling the whole way lol. this isnt "rush to lvl cap then start doing the MMO part of the game" aurora with freinds is gonna get where he wants to be alot faster than solo aurora.

the premise of the game is that every ship has a specific role and place in the universe at all times. if you want to work for a bigger ship, go for it, it's 100% personal preference

youre delusional if you think going from a starter ship to a capital ship should be any kind of fast process that doesnt involve working hard. bernie isnt president, you don't magically get free things

>>160176159

It's a police matter, not yours. You have to make sure you're allowed to claim a bounty first.

>>160178465
Except that whole "member of the Pilots' Federation, friendly with Federation and local factions in power, and recognized bounty hunter" thing that separates it from real life.

You should run the game no issue. You'll find that the persistent universe may run shitty, it won't be your system but their netcode. If you run Arena Commander well then that is the performance you can expect for the game.

So what's your set up for elite/SC?

I twin stick it, need a better stick for the throttle though, wish there was a left handed version of the logitech one

seems pretty good for combat, I have the thrusters on the left POV switch, and power controls on the right POV switch

Mouse and keyboard

>>160185394
sweet man thanks. I understand that right now you can do a surprising amount of stuff in the alpha just short of what they showed off at gamescom right? and 3.0 or something is coming out soon™?

>>160185560
how do you possibly survive?

>>160185592
Here's what you can do.

2.6, which is supposed to focus on FPS action is supposed to come out soon™. We have no idea when 3.0 is supposed to come out any longer.

Easily, the classic XBOX version is a PS/2 port that can easily be converted to a standard PS/2 connection and then adapted to USB or just plugged straight into your motherboard's PS/2 port.

There's freeware online to bind buttons to the Battalion setup, it's open source and you'll need to fuck with it.

So is it even worth it to use a stick in this game anymore? Roberts should just replace the sticks in the cockpits with some starfleet LCARS ripoff.

An Xbone controller with keyboard for shit like FSD/Landing Gear/Cargo Hatch.

avenger is part of a large handfuls of ships where they kinda made the exterior first then crammed an interior into it despite not fitting a player properly. likely on the list for an interior rework at some point where they'll make sure the interior works fisrt then build around it - like any newer ship

I thought the only reason Serenity looked as grungy as she did was because of age and ware. You know, the whole "used future" concept.
One really has to admit that from certain angles, and certain aspects of her design and function, the Carrack really does give off that Serenity vibe.

I swear Ill be pissed if they take that gun rack away from behind the pilot seat. It looks like it's not an internal room for a cockpit like the Aurora, but rather, just a straight shot from outside to the pilot seat, similar to the Gladius and Hornet.

I want my fucking gun rack. It's what helps differentiate it from the Hornet and Gladius. Especially when it comes to certain scenarios when you need to get out of the ship.

2.6 is Star marine.

>>160207058

No, if you check out the original concept and the Q&A's, there is a gun rack behind the seat that they specifically mentioned will be able to hold a couple rifle-sized guns.

If they take that away, then that is one distinction of the ship that got raped. Check it out in the original sale and you'll know what Im talking about.

To me, that gun rack is a pretty big deal. Having the ability to bring at least two different rifles is something no other fighter is currently planned to do.

I wonder how flimsy the Buccaneer is if the thing does SH damage at $110 and is supposedly fast too

The patch on friday will most likely just be the speed change if we follow the CIG tradition. Maybe they'll call it 2.5.5 or something instead to just be able to say that 2.6 is still Star Marine...

Star Marine will be here in March next year at this pace. 3.0 in august 2017 and first mission of SQ42 at the start of 2018.

>>160206739
Dumbass you can turn that shit off.

>>160207692

I definitely dont disagree. CIG has some very stupid design choices that dont make sense, despite wanting to maximize "immershunz and fideleleletiz". If the game was logical, we could throw tons of weapons on the back seat of a SH if no one else is with you.

But no, all you can do is forced animations. No fun allowed.

>>160204319
the namefag is wrong as can only be expected; it's actually fixed in 2.6 with a simple animation change, or should be. they applied the fix to one of the avenger variants but not the others for some quintessentially CIG reason; when you hop off the top of the ladder you start crouched rather than having your head through the roof.

There was no new patch since November 1st. They spent the entire last week working on the next iteration, but no further word on that. We only know that they want to try some even more experimental shit like removing cruise mode, but letting players accelerate to max cruise with AB. Only when going in a straight line though, and it uses up 100% AB fuel which doesn't regenerate until you slow down because of reasons. At least that's what I gathered from occasionally skimming the chat. I spend as little time on there as possible. Nothing on Star Marine or 2.6.

The M50 is either, based on fittings, like how a Ford Mustang or Chevy Corvette can be a race car or a police interceptor.

A privateer operates under a Letter of Marque and attacks the ships of rival nations. A freelancer does any job for any one, but generally remains neutral to keep future employer options open.

I can forgive fudging realism for the sake of game play. We already have space ships dog fighting, low gun velocity, missile that do nothing and engagement ranges under 2km. I think arguing for more realism just paints yourself into a corner where you can no longer access fun. Pic unrelated.

That is the Polaris. Nukes in SC are Anti-Matter torps, even the Retaliator can have them. The Polaris can just have larger Anti-Matter torps.

>>160258734
>that is the Polaris
Well if that's true I feel even shittier for not buying one.
But the Polaris seems to fit the Corvette role better than dedicated nuke sub.
Are size ten torps really the largest weapons we're going to be able to get our hands on? No weapons of mass destruction to bombard planets with? No stealthy sub to roll up on a planet, and send a few megatons of hate and discontent on the pirates/enemy org base below?

>>160258950
I hope you realise that the Polaris is entirely designed to be the space-Submarine experience. Terrapin has a similar non-combat recon uboat experience.
>Submarine
>surface, fire torpedos, submerge and hide

>Polaris
>jump in, fire torpedos, jump out and hide

Although you're likely to use a low profile recon ship like a F7C-R or Terrapin to get the location of the enemy ships, rather than using a long-range radar to spot them.

>>160258950
Can't see why you can't use a Polaris to bombard (player controlled) planetside locations. I imagine any planetside base would have some kind of alert system to incoming torpedos.

Pic related is the W.M.D of SC

>>160259767
And those other ships can fit IN the Polaris's bay, can't they? So you really can have the ship to recon for the Polaris.

>>160260019
I'm not familiar with how the torpedoes work, or what their range is. Will the game allow us to attack a planet from orbit, or will you have to get in close?
>half the ship is a mass driver
That's amazing, but holy fuck is that huge, and there's no way one would ever be player controlled.

>>160260713
Yep, both fit in the Polaris.

Torpedos (and all weapons) are going to behaving post 3.0 with the scale change, we'll need to see how exactly they do. It might just be special free-fall Torpedos that can bombard planets. If not, you can always just fly close enough to get a lockon then fire away.

As for the Retribution, it's lost in Vanduul space after SQ42's plot so there could be a very dificult ingame event for players to find it, but good luck getting a few hundred people to crew it while every other org is fighting you for it.

>>160260976

>2.6 November PTU December live, 3.0 has no/go meetings in January 13th/20th and is expected to release on one of those dates.
You can't prove it, so stop posting these claims.

>>160270124
polaris price has been nailed now. company week end email has confirmed it will be the suprisingly low cost of $475 with five option modules ranging from $25 to $75 and the capacity to fit two. its cost is so low due to a future aegis medium and anvil heavy covertte filling the blanks between it and the idris

Stop overhyping yourself, you're only lying to yourself and others. Nothing else will be shown off.

woops, left your trip off when you replied to yourself there

>>160268924
bullshit

So if I wear an HTC Vive to play SC for MAX IMMERSION, will they eventually make it so my in game character move his head 1 to 1 with my head movements?

>>160270805
Nah just posting his dank memes

companion app with $ to ingame currency purchases, chat, etc (design phase only, citcon slide)

>>160270478
>"g-guys we cant show you any content because there is not anything but ships... look at those JPGS!"

this game, I swear

>>160270954
No

Also VR a shit until 4K

>>160270954
the game isnt designed to accomodate VR in any way, so dont expect it to.

but every camera mode has some form of freelook so i dont see why it wouldnt work

>spending $1,000 in dual sticks and VR for a game that isnt a game for another year or so here

>>160270954
>will they eventually make it so my in game character move his head 1 to 1 with my head movements?
I don't know what you mean by that
something like face capture would be ridiculous but isn't basic head tracking pretty crucial to VR?

>>160271423
In VR there's positional tracking where leaning to the side makes your character do the same, and rotational tracking like in half life 2 where it's only the angle your head is at.

His bait is based around knowing positional tracking won't be in SC. I wouldn't want it in either, it would be an unfair advantage to have precise leaning like that.

>>160268924
>no/go meetings in January 13th/20th
they don't plan those more than a week in advance.

reminder that all TheAgent posts are bait posts as the trip is public and anybody can use it

>>160272072
The last post he made before it became public was detailing the sales. So I'm curious to see if anything is right in those predictions.

>I also feel that if everyone can be cloned easily, it fundamentally changes the structure of the universe. You now have a universe of immortal gods that can’t be killed. Death is just a financial and time inconvenience that has no further consequences.

wtf is this meme?
Chris is smelly retard of stink who never contemplates his mortality

>>160272297
They're accurate. You're better off ignoring the falseflag goon pottys trying to push the narative that my pre-release ever changing information is "false" when it's been changed before official release. I only issue the current information, it changes too fast to be predicted accuratly in advance as this is just the current information within the office.

>>160271703
I wasn't even baiting. im just want to get a vive at some point in my life and heard that vr might be a thing in SC.

and i was mostly meaning if i turn my head left to look to the left of me, will my character turn his head left to show where I am looking to other players? simple.

>>160272347
>You now have a universe of immortal gods that can’t be killed. Death is just a financial and time inconvenience that has no further consequences.

Isn't that the plot of EVE?

>>160272347
obviously he's talking about game mechanics; the concept of self transfers seamlessly from clone to clone when you're still playing them, whereas with permadeath you at least have a strong incentive to roleplay a new person and leave dead characters in the grave.

>>160272556
if theres a way to keybind your head movement in VR to the freelook keybind in ships it's possible right now

it's not gonna look good, and the game isnt designed to look good in VR but it's possible

>>160272556
It's a stretch goal but with the current resolution playing something like SC would suck.

you can actually freelook in EVA as well, not sure if it works when you're just standing though

>>160273237

>>160273121
yeah, thats what i mean

not sure you can keybind your actual character movement direction seperately from your freelook

aka use your mouse to steer WHILE moving your head to freelook instead of using VR to aim gimballs. it'd be a mess probably but if the keybinds are totally open and you can count the headset movement as a single keybind it should work

>>160273000
so even if they made SC more functional with VR later, it would need an upgrade in the hardware to be worth it. got it.

>>160273121
This reminds me that we'll be able to change the gravity on our ships, and outlaw bars tend to have increased gravity to sound hard

I hope you don't genuinely believe anything I post on SA to be anything more than bait for goons.

>>160277279
That's working as intended. It's classic risk vs. reward. Want to get into your ship safely with no risk? You use the ramp. Want to get to the bridge quicker and more directly? You use the side door but risk being catapulted hundreds of kilometers off into space.

>>160270954
Yeah, once they implement it.

How long before we get another letter from Chris saying that Star Marine is delayed for another 2 years?

Hopefully soon

except it was literally a promised stretch goal so Chris fucked himself on that one

>>160280594
this. zero reason they couldnt just say "hey uh star marine is giving us issues so we're doing 2.7 now" and then release 2.6 with the flight changes and new ships

we get at least something new to play with for a couple weeks, they effectively get to QA the flight changes further as tens of thousands of new idiots do things to break the game and find bugs - and bam, star marine is out by the time all of 2.6 otherwise would have been out and nobody cares

both of those companies had big public blowhard figureheads at the helm that can be blamed for vastly overestimating the scope of their projects?

I mean, NMS is a nice skeletal tech demo of what a game could have been at least. I could see why someone would want to poach coders from it.

>>160279271
you mean the fantasy that they're going to ever improve NMS is over? this guy wouldn't have had anything to do with the lies told about NMS, though I can't think of much experience a level designer would have cultivated on aprocedurally generated game and at a company that made the series of hallway simulators that were the Fable series.

>>160281039
>zero reason
one reason would be the million asshats that would shriek with delight over them 'breaking a promise' and encouraging everyone they could to get a refund.

>>160281331
you're right, i sometimes forget that there's actually a large community focused on tearing the game apart, and not just a handful of brokedicks on twitter

Wew

>>160282010
did I say i'm not a cultist for SC? i definitely am

being emotionally invested in something you believe in and have money in is alot different than being even more emotionally invested in something you dont like

[falseflag starwman]

>>160281187
if you slammed the planet stuff of NMS and the space stuff of Everspace into a single game and then fired the person who kept claiming it would be fucking multiplayer, you might end up with a fun sandbox game at least.

>>160282570
>This inability to read

I'm pointing out how comical it is that people who are excited for a game are cultists, but people who want a game to die and dedicate time to killing it aren't cultists.
