We're more likely to get S42 than baby pu to be honest. Considering what Chris did with ilfonic.
>>121078845

not really. there were massive layoffs in austin last week just like derek said there would be.
>>121081673
I'll stick around as well, I want to shove corpses in the back of my Avenger and sell them to space hobos. Don't think I can do that anywhere else.
>>121081438
you mean just like Chris Roberts said there would be in his letter to staff he published online
>>121081438
Love how Derekt screams DISINFORMATION everytime someone proves him wrong.
Chris announced the Austin layoffs well before Derek did.
Maybe CIG is trying to abandon this awful country and ambulance chasers like Derek to solely work out of F42.
>>121084175
Not gonna lie, i like that prospect. F42 guys consistently showing actual results.

>Cruise Mode gives the pilot velocity at the expense of control. And while the top speed is high, the available acceleration doesn’t change, meaning that reaching maximum Cruise velocity will take 15-20+ seconds, turning ability does not scale with velocity and coming to a stop can take much longer using the normal ship retro thrusters.
>Cruise velocities can easily reach 5x or more of the safely controllable velocities allowed by SCM. Maneuvers in Cruise mode become more about adjusting course than making turns. It goes without saying that Cruise is absolutely not intended to be used in combat, asteroid fields or high-traffic space lanes.
>Savvy pilots will quickly learn to use decoupled mode and boost to brake with their mains as quickly as possible. Conversely, pilots will find that attempting to change course 90 degrees by using decoupled mode is an express ticket to sleepsville since the high sustained g-forces of such a maneuver lead to rapid black or red-out.
I am ready to watch the metal rain on station surfaces. T-day's parting gift will come after all.
with the physical damage system won't it be the case that the impact speed is relative to how fast the shooter is going? so you can cruise at someone and fucking destroy them with ballistics?

yeah mouseniggers are going to ruin this game
also they said they balance it by giving fixed bigger weapons
well bigger weapons are more mass which makes the ship accelerate slower AND now lower top speed. And smaller guns have faster projectiles so they hit even easier, with less power draw

Also, is there anybody who will sit in a turret and control it with a joystick? Unironically? (Yes, I acknowledge that they shouldn't be able to 360 instantly)
>>121139475
I considered that but it depends how they implement it
if there's lots of mass or low jerk etc. then it might be more intuitive than mouse

All good except this one, that one doesn't make sense if you're in vacuum. But I kinda understand they need it for gameplay purposes

>>121140578
I think what they mean is decouple > 90 turn >recouple. if the IFCS tries to compensate for the extreme speed you were going and slam into a sideways stop then yeah, you'll be spitting blood out your eyeballs. but the maneuvering thrusters shouldn't have the power to do that anyway, especially if >>121141209 works without killing you.
>>121139475
P72 isn't in the game, typical dipshit phoenix ownerI'm also a phoenix owner
>>121141280
With the new flight model we're getting mav thrusters turned down and main engines tuned up.
If you decouple, turn 90 degrees and slam on your main engines, which can now propel you to 1000m/s in 15-20 seconds, 5-7 lateral Gs is going to knock you the fuck out.
>>121140578

>>121143286
>turn 90 degrees and slam on your main engines
> lateral Gs
that's not (rl) physics works
you will be changing your vector only from your (current) back, there will be no lateral G's if you turn 90 and only thrust forward
>>121144607
That would be breaking the rules of the IFCS that limits your possible top speed.
So no, you would be stopping your original vector, inducing Gs.
>>121144752
Well, ok, if the IFCS starts to brake laterally if you thrust forward in decoupled, then yeah, the automatic thrusting from IFCS itself would kill you.
If they implement it that way, than it sucks. But let's say you go 90% of you max velocity (900m/s) then if you turn 90° in decoupled and thrust with a short burst with 100m/s dV, no lateral Gs would happen.

Guys, i'm getting massive framedrops in multiplayer randomly when otherwise the game runs breddy well. I went in thinking my rig wouldn't have any trouble. Setting my graphics to from very high to high only gave me more freezing.
Also, should I upgrade my aurora LN to an Avenger?
I'd really appreciate some help with this.
is he right?
>>121146038
Bug with 1.3, not your rig. Happens regardless of hardware.
Upgrade is up to you. Avenger is gud.
>>121146107
No, but who cares. Its just RSI.
>>121146142
Okay, was a bit worried there.
Yeah I really like the avenger so far. I really like my aurora because of the truck feel but i'll probably get the avenger to have a decent dogfighter.
>>121146304
Avenger is doing really well in 1.3 but I wouldn't expect that to last too much longer.
Besides, all the ships are going to change with the new flight model. It might actually fall more into line of what it originally was pitched as; massive main engine and weak mav thrusters making it a strafing fighter. Right now its just a mini Gladius
>>121145147
>>121144752
the mavs do not have the power to brake that hard laterally. even if they're all blasting full on to try and stop your original vector, they will not succeed. see:
>turning ability does not scale with velocity and coming to a stop can take much longer using the normal ship retro thrusters.
>>121146393
Okay.
Even if it were to change that much i'd probably prefer it to my Aurora.
It's so god damn slow that it's painful to watch.

Not using that technology would be like a car not using seatbelts or airbags because its too complicated. In reality, not only is it a good idea, its fucking mandatory.
>>121146678
XML hacking is still possible, so I wouldn't be so sure.
>>121146809
Seatbelts aren't on the same level as a nuclear reactor.
Point is that anti-gravity technology could not be scalable. Could work for stations, but not fighters or medium ships.
>>121146809
>Racing around the city in my spess ship
stop right there criminal scum
Whar game Roberts???!
Whar??
>racing
The idea is nice, but there should be a whole bunch of separate ships for that, basically a handful designed to look like the M50, and only usable in racing, not in the PU. It wouldn't surprise me if people were allowed to fly a catarpillar or cutlass or 890 around those stupid tracks.
The other problem with racing is the shit design of the course. Now I don't have a problem per-se of floating cities in the middle of nowhere when they could just be put on the ground, but in a game where some ships can carry 20th century bullets on their ships, I kind of do.
And the problem with racing doesn't stop there, you fly through one of those hoops at 150km/h or whatever the arbitrary speed of the month is, and you have literally no idea where to go, because maybe the next hoop is 180 degrees behind you, and then you see other ships take a long turn around a bunch of buildings and fly towards it.
The courses aren't set out properly. There needs to be more indicators on your HUD and properly visible hoops, like in any other type of racing. Imagine how stupid urban racing would be if you just told cars to drive really fast through a city and they had to try and find the markers to drive through, it would be stupid and they wouldn't race until the officials set out the designated routes.
TL;DR Star Citizen racing is shit because the courses aren't clearly marked.
Also, the flight physics are wrong and feel stupid for atmospheric flight.
>>121150287
You know most races are going to be done in space, don't you
>>121150287
>The idea is nice, but there should be a whole bunch of separate ships for that
why, to add a whole shitheap of work for no real gain to the game as a whole? no.
Read the flight model post, too. Shit is changing.
>>121150549
>most
So they're going to develop 2 sets of flight physics?
>>121150710
Copy and paste the M50 (and all the programming behind it) and then have a bunch of people move around some stuff, make some wings bigger or smaller or tilted, maybe double up the engine or whatever, in their spare time or as pet projects, and then 6 months later you've got a bunch of racing ships, wow real hard to do.
>brb just flying my banu merchantman through this city to race
>>121154263
So you're suggesting an M50 with different components, even though this game already has modular components up to an including some structural elements
and you think adding an M50 with a 10% bigger wingspan improves the game on some level
yeah

They were contracted to do a certain amount of work, which they did, and were let go afterwards like their contract stipulated. They were never a permanent part of CIG.

>>121173902
yeah I'm reading it now. really happy to see it turning out this way. being able to continuously accelerate until you're outpaced your ship's ability to maneuver is something I really really wanted to happen. it'll make dogfighting far more varied and give the possibility of atmo-style chases to those who want it, and it'll increase pilot mortality by pancake, two things I'd love to see in this game.

You're rigs fine except with regards to RAM, 8gigs is like the barest minimum to run the game, I'd upgrade to at least 12 but preferably 16. as is you can run SC and basically nothing else in the background.
that being said that isn't whats causing your frame drops, Alpha1.3 is just shit, I Have 64 gigs of Ram, a 4960x i7 hex-core and Quad 780tis and I still am getting shitting frame rates in general, random frame drops and screen tearing. None of this was happening in either 1.2 or 1.3ptu, went live and suddenly everything is broken and shitty.

Okay, I'll have to admit that the design looks cool. But that's about it.
It's a fucking joke considering they worked 3+ years on this and got over 90 million $ from crowd-funding and god knows how much from investors.
Good fucking work. This doesn't look better than any of the fucking early access bullshit titles that are on steam at this very moment, except for the artwork/models/textures. And probably has less gameplay than most of those.
inb4 "b-but it's an early alpha!"
It's been 3 years now, dipshit. No content, can't even handle the basic game engine. This won't get much better from here on out.
That is all, have a nice day.
>>121186914
What would they need to provide to satisfy you?
>>121188103
Literally all the work thats been done so far is back end game engine shit. Everything out right now is pretty much half assed placeholder tier programmer art.
Also they're working on SQ42 primarily not SC. And we dont get to see any of that shit.
>>121188103
You are right, it has been 3 years.
Now lets look at development times for other MMOs.
I can assure you that they are much higher than 3 years.
>>121188103

>90mil+ USD funding

>no custom graphic settings, only 3 to choose from (it's fucking cry engine ffs that pretty much comes with the base SDK)

>get in
>horrible performance
sorry your computer is shit, but when you join the big boys and update to a modern pc you can probably run it passably, yes you've once again identified a unoptmized alpha, you are very good at pattern recommendation
>mouse is locked, doesn't accept y-axis input
>have to fuck around in the minute for 5 minutes and obscurely switch perspectives around to get it to work
yes, problems in an alpha, wtf is "obscurely switch perspectives even mean?" now your are just reaching, but once again pattern recognition, alpha product doesn't work on everyone's computers the same way, gold star for you!
>fps drop on a rig that would currently rank medhigh-high (GTX 960, SSD, etc)
yes, and this game is designed for real computeres not yesteryears medium build
>engine sometimes fucks up loading/rendering things
HOLY GOD THAT NEVER HAPPENS ON RELEASED GAMES
>clipping issues
CLIPPING IS AN ATROCITY TO MAN AND IS AN UNFORGIVEABLE SIN, IT'S CERTAINLY NEVer HAPPENED IN THE YEAR OF OUR LORD 2015
>content 404 not found
i'm sure you think you are clever, but you aren't as this doesn't mean anything
>more clipping issues with the player/npc models
by the almighty zeus that shouldn't ever happen in a game what the fuck this game is shit, i agree
>which look horrible
awww was expecting a western woman model bait, try again
>>121188661
>Literally all the work thats been done so far is back end game engine shit.
They are using a fucking out of the box engine with just minor extensions (when it comes to renderings/graphics/stuff that notably influences FPS) and still can't handle basic stuff like video settings, proper model loading or clipping.
>Everything out right now is pretty much half assed placeholder tier programmer art.
If you think those are just placeholders - fine - but unless I've seen something proper that's a big minus for me. There are plenty of games who put this kind of "placeholders" in only to leave them in for the final release.
>>121188671
About 4, maybe 5 years. Do you honestly think they will have anything that resembles a final build in one or two years? I mean, they didn't come far from the stuff we've seen two years ago. If they keep it up like this and would actually release in that timeframe, we would maybe have a shitty arena shooter.

i hope you realise its not a powerful card just because its in the 900 series, its the second number that defines its ranking
(spoilers, its the lowest, its weaker than a 780)
>>121189914
He literally justified it with "it's okay because all others are doing it"
Aka bugged pieces of shit are perfectly acceptable because everybody's doing it
It being an alpha is no excuse, after 3 years you'd think the devs would've figured the engine out by now. Or how the HUD is supposed to look in the final version. Optimizations aside, this is running subpar, even for something that's unoptimized.
>>121189976
So what
Gives a solid 50FPS on average with most modern games on ultra and 1080p

No, I just expected them to come up with basic concepts they announced during the crowdfunding-phase some years ago in less than 5 years.

it's currently in development, and has no set release date, or any current bronze/silver status

not important, we're still on schedule
Why are you defending SC/CIG
Someone posts bad bait / stupid /v/-tier opinions and you all come out of the woodwork to defend the game to someone who isn't going to listen to you anyway

>>121189395
>They are using a fucking out of the box engine with just minor extensions
Holy dogshit this has to be bait. When SC was picking an engine their choices for high end software was Unreal and Cryengine.
Unreal wasnt stable enough and Cryengine had a built in tech to handle large world settings. So CIG went with Cryengine.
Turns out the large world shit was bunk and they had to develop the following things for Cryengine.
64 bit floating point double precision.
General Instance Manager
Local physics grids
GOST to manage ship modules
Physically based damage rendering
All of this shit is basically INVISIBLE to the player or coming in 2.0. Calling that stuff minor extensions is fucking gold medalist tier mental gymnastics that would bring tears to the youthful acrobats of China.
I literally think SC is shit in many ways but those things I brought up are not on that list by any stretch of imagination. You rustled my jimmies hard.

Here's (you)r reply. In all seriousness I do like the sounds the Elite ships make for their FLT drives. Just take for-fucking-ever to get anywhere. I got work in the morning. Shit to do when I get home. I don't have time to commit to a second job that doesn't pay as a spess pirate; so lets get the show on the road and have some shenanigans.

>comparing a game in alpha to a released product
look senpai, doesn't matter if star citizen is still in "alpha"* we've already seen how they plan to travel, at 0.2c slow as fuck through jump nodes, and through pretty wormhole graphics
E:D travel is still better, warps anywhere in the galaxy faster than light, looks awesome.
both games travel look nice, but SC is small as fuck and with gimped speed
ganbatte senpai
*"alpha" is just another way of saying "you can't criticize my favourite consumer product", even betas are now called alphas or better yet, "pre-alpha" by fanboys
>>121210893
Yes.
I recommend going to steam and picking up a copy of Line of Defense for a cool $20 as it is the same as this and doesn't have spaceships for thousands of dollars.
It does have hundreds of dollars worth of dlc tho that are actually weapon packs for your character, but this totally not p2w.
Trust me.
>>121212159
>looks awesome
Yeah it looks awesome. It isn't much fun to play.
Have you even played Elite you stupid weebposting faggot? Even the forumdads complain about how mind numbingly tedious E:Ds space travel is.
>>121212159
this game is not in alpha, it's not in a pre-release state or otherwise known as silver or beta
this game is currently in development
base back-end work to get the game running, completion of the actual game engine, basic features such as fps gameplay and content for areas are still being added
the idea of this game being in alpha stems from the test bed alpha they promised to the backers, also known as arena commander
the actual game, as stated, is in development
>>121212327
>hundreds of dollars worth of dlc tho that are actually weapon packs for your character
That doesn't make the game pay2win.
Imagine a hundred pistols in Star Citizen, with the same stats but wildly different looks, that's fine because it's cosmetic. Selling super weapons for more money is pay2win.
Like Star Citizen is pay2win.
>>121212486

Don't hold your breatheKWAhave about as much creativity as their Chinese cartoons do.
I know with the new current drop limits, the optimal clan group is an even split of Hellbringers, Stormcrows, and Arctic Cheaters, but has there been any research on what the best tonnage is for IS lances
>implying IS competitive
My first thought would be Firestarters, Shadow Hawks, and Thunderbolts, simply because of the tonnage similarity, but you are fucked since you have no ECM. Any change you do to add it in will require some short of shitmech, and having medium pulse Thunderbolts will be much slower than a lance of Hellbringers...
No matter what it looks like a lose-lose scenario. I really should just sell all my IS mechs at this point with the new quirks as well.
