what am i supposed to do inside this spooky station?
>>123370818
Watch out for skellingtons of course
>>123370818
read the lore that's scattered around on tapes
CUTLASS IS SHIT
SHIT
>>123370818
Wait for someone and provide spooks for them.
>>123371084
I like the cutlass.
I want it to have a pool table.
>>123371084
I upgraded to an Andromeda, fuck the Cutlass
>>123371084
>>123371230
>>123371480
BEN SAID THEY WILL FIX THE CUTLASS
JUST YOU WAIT
>>123371480
I'm waiting for revamp and Buccaneer.
Drake Dragonfly when?
>>123371594
>>123371610
Why not just swap to a good ship?
It's like you guys want to suck.
>>123371739
what is the dragonfly? i dont remember that
>>123371749
There's no good ship of the same idea in same price category. I'd consider Freelancer, but need to see the revamp first, and it might be too big now.
>>123371854
Nigga just pick a ship that looks nice
Fuck that theorycrafting bullshit
Why is the Super Hornet the best ship?
>Chiseled military visuals
>tough as fuck
>'multi-crew'
>weapons out the whazzo
>can sacrifice 1/3rd weapon payload to become the fastest fighter out there.
Literally no reason not to fly one.
>>123371935
>Nigga just pick a ship that looks niceBut that's why I'm waiting for a revamp of Cutlass and Lancer.
>>123372139
Never liked that design tb'h
>"More crash fixes. The build is pretty much packaged and ready to go at this point. QA is going to hit on it with hammers for a bit to make sure it's solid. Additionally, we are looking into a solution that will prevent players with old builds(they did not patch) from connecting to the new build. Because when they do that, they effectively BRING old crashes with them to the new build. So working on that."
>>123372058
I imagine once we get fuel it'll guzzle it up like an up-armored Humvee.
>>123372058
Not the fastest in Cruise, and thats the mode that allows you to fuck with people with impunity
>>123372058
speaking of the Super Hornet, did they change the wing mounts to not be S4s? Or do they just not have a S4 mount? I want to put some gimballed S3s on mine to try in AC
>>123373197
They're max S3, you can't mount 3 Combine Ballistic cannons on it for very good reason
>>123373315
well that sucks, hopefully I can upgrade them in the PU
>>123373882
Its the hull limit.
>>123373882
haha, no.
Putting 3 of those S4s on your hornet would be ridiculous.
>>123373919
oh, but the military one has the gimballed gatlings which are s3
>>123374002
F7A isn't in the game, as far as I'm aware.
If you're going off the stats page, there are things that have been wrong for 2 years on there.

>>123374192
>I'm curious to get some opinions on this. Is anyone concerned at all that the community of the game will focus too heavily on PvP?
>>123374192
Seriously, retards like that restore my faith in the game. I just want to wait till it's out and make these fags cry.
>>123374726
That's why I want Ben removed from game dev
He'll side with the carebears 99% of the time.
Industrial ships are out.

>that fucking tease
I was gonna melt all my combat ships and buy that pack if it gave you the spiderbot.
>>123375864
> Do you like... work for the developer or something?
Even normies can spot shills now?
>>123375908
My only solace is that the spiderbot is in the strong, capable hands of Foundry 42
>>123375908
also, I have a Star-G and a freelancer and 225 in credit.
Im condsidering upgrading the Lancer to a Starfarer and the StarG to some other industrial
But Im not sure If I'd rather have a StarG or Reg-farer, the Star-G is probably better utility wise, but it seems like its gonna be a lot less comfy than they regular one.

In a limited capacity its possible now
there aren't financial repurcussions for losing your ship, but dying crashes you more often than not, and getting your ship into space is 90% of where crashes occur anyway
preying on these people, with local chat and the "PTU testers" reddit chat they're all in is bretty gud
>Additionally, we are looking into a solution that will prevent players with old builds(they did not patch) from connecting to the new build. Because when they do that, they effectively BRING old crashes with them to the new build. So working on that."
jesus what the fuck
>>123376235
You'd think they would have made it impossible to begin with for obvious reasons.
What the fuck indeed.
anyone flying a ghost in the ptu? can you be sneaky and fuck people up the ass?
>>123376038
I can't really tell, becasue if I'd seen that here I'd have posted some bait reaction image and told him to stop feeding the troll.
Or waited for the derek smart shitposters to come along and then post some weeb reaction image to rile them up some more.
hi im new is this game pay to win
>yfw next PTU patch will be 2.0.0derek
>soon™
>>123382376
In it's current state, pretty much
>>123382376
Yes right now, no in the long run. There is only the barest sense of in-game progression as of now because the game's not done. I could go on for many paragraphs to answer your question in more detail. You're better off just knowing that you can drop $30 on the game right now and get both the Persistent Universe and Squadron 42 for the price, and that later those might become two full price retail games.
>>123382619
>>123382642
it has Ballmer peak of pay to win.
up to 170ish its pay to win, but past that its pay to not be able to play at all.

>game relies on fans for all exposure and sales
>DO YOU WORK FOR THE DEVELOPER OR SOMETHING
Notice waterhead publisher dick guzzlers think that any time somebody knows more than the name of a game they're somehow sales employees. God forbid anyone tells them anything about the game that they don't know.
Trying to get back into PTU for 2.0 but it's greyed out in my account settings. Did they change the way to access it?
>>123383757
while I agree, and have been called a shill many times myself, that guy really was giving a PR pitch. it sounds like something an exec at E3 would say on stage.
>>123384626
You were likely soft banned for grieving. I heard some rumors that hardcore players are disappearing and being slowly replaced by streamers with custom clients.
>>123385283
I heard some rumors that you have a a tiny penis.
Explain yourself.
Post your ship list.And your email.
>>123384626
If you didn't get invited to the PTU then you can't get into it. They're letting new players into the PTU in waves, supposedly giving priority to people who regularly contribute to the Issue Council.

Tally
And 225 store shekels
I am tempted to trade the Tally for an Orion or a Hull of some sort.
I loved the Tally concept art, and I still love the way it looks, but it just doesn't seem like it'll ever be as comfy inside as it looked in concept. It looked like you could make it a flying RV, but so far its like a submarine more than anything else: Cramped, claustrophobic and completely utilitarian. I was sold on the apartment, double bed, couch and TV.

I'm going to hold onto my Cutlass Blue solely out of spite. If they fix it, that'll be great, if they don't, I have a plan to find a developer who's playing the game and follow him around silently and noticeably as a reminder of his failure.
Check your emails.
Lucky few.

lol this guy thinks he can make a profit off spaceships this late in the game. might as well try bitcoin mining while you're at it lmao
>>123393206
No, that's just a spec of obnoxious space dust.
I don't think you can see anything other than crusader at a distance.
>>123393505
You can see missile contrails and tracer / laser fire at obscene distances

CIG are really cagey about how far they're willing to take the Sci-Fi elements. There's a couple of mentions of spooky derelicts with monsters in them but they never really give any details as to what we might find. They'll probably endeavor to stay very far away from more conventional things like aliens that reanimate the dead or violent parasitic organisms ala Alien. Backers prompt CIG on things like that, along with space whales, from time to time but they usually shy away from the topic.
One of the biggest gaps in the fiction is figuring out exactly what (non-player) entities pose a threat on the "Eastern" fringe of UEE space, past Terra and closer to the Xi'an/Banu border region. NPC Pirates are surely along for the ride but the Banu don't seem to have any much interest in fighting (or piracy) and the Xi'an are in a perpetual state of detente with the UEE anyway.
The Kr'thak have been mentioned, and we know almost nothing about them aside from the fact that the Xi'an have been fighting them in what they call the "Spirit Wars" for centuries. For all we know they're non-humanoid bug monsters, but they're a bit outside of the purview of our experience at the moment.
I expect CIG won't bother with making big moves like adding more science fantasy type stuff to the setting until after they've hammered out a complex Human Empire with distinct regional demographics, complicated political situations, and an on-going conflict with the savage aliens beating down their gates. Anything outside of that paradigm should be post-launch events that blindside players and put them in situations they could not have foreseen or prepared for adequately, which would amplify the player's interactions with aforementioned creepy alien monsters.
>>123401164
>space whales
I love the concept of space whales, but they'd need to be fucking huge to be interesting to me. And not conventionally shaped (you know... not like whales... maybe like giant waterbears or partially spherical).
new launcher update folks.
d patch has been deployed.
Restart your launchers.

Coravex Shipping Hub is abandoned, has no gravity.
There are lore audio logs laying around but i've not bothered to find out what happened.
No grenades, only a rifle.
/scg/ help me
Where can i find someone who would trade me a $5 ship upgrade for a steam game
I only need $5 to upgrade my LN into an Avenger but i don't have paypal or any credit cards
Should i try on reddit?
>>123403643
ah so the place is found in a state of dereliction, not made that way by players.
are there any stations currently where the gravity can be turned on/off? or just some with and some without
>>123404532
no.
The only 'stations' are Oliser, the shipping hub and Outpost Keerah (place to get armed up).
The place with the gravity generator room is Gold Horizon, a map from the infinitely delayed Star Marine.
Everything around Crusader is just WIP to give the players something to do though.
>>123404269
i just checked the sales and i'd do it for mirrors edge. played the game on console so many years ago but i'd like to play it again on my pc.
if there's tax it'll probably be a little over 5 usd though
My game is still crashing on 2.0.0d, this sucks. I play for an absolute max of 10 minutes and it crashes. My specs are fine, I get good FPS but goddamn, this game does not like something about my PC.
>>123404895
fuck i just checked and i can buy it but i wouldn't be able to send it as a gift to people outside my continent
do you know if there's any workaround for it?
>>123405094
did you try those user settings that fix crashes? tried to look it up for you but i don't see it
>>123405386
this is news to me, i checked it out and my only guess would be to trick steam to thinking you live in the USA or something. it probably does a lookup of your ISP though, so it's probably not as easy as it sounds
>>123405094
Most of the crashes seem to be server side, or based on people who have old versions trying to play the game, according to some documentation I've read. So it may very well not be your PC. They've still got a lot to do to un-fuck the PTU.
>>123405390
I've tried the i7 config and the i5 config, game still normally crashes within 3-4 minutes.
>>123405829
I don't get any kind of connection error the game just crashes.
I guess something server-side could be triggering it, but other people are playing fine and every patch has been "We fixed some crashes!" with zero improvement on stability for me.
>>123405829
Yeah im getting the same problem but not in vanduul swarm of free flight
Must be server based
Post shipfu.
>>123408692
Goddamn I wish that turret was actually on the Avenger.
How's the 300i compared to the avenger?
>>123408975
The 300i is a piece of shit with shit guns and shittier hardpoints.
>>123408882
absolutely haram
I'm torn between keeping my 325A in the hopes that the eventual 300i series rework is awesome or just CCUing to something else. I love the look of the Gladius, Sabre and M50 but I don't know how I'd like them when I get into the PU
>>123409584
Buy an upgrade package, but wait until after checking out the rework to apply it.
>>123409584
you will be able to downgrade ships at a later date.for 5 dollars though because chris gotta eat.
>>123409285
So the omniskys are no longer any good?
>>123410260
Who knows how long that could be though. I'll probably end up doing that but I really wish they would at least tell us what they would change about it
>>123408692
That shit looks amazing, but a mining platform seems kinda boring... Then again, it could be the perfect smuggling ship.
I hope there are material to smuggle, and maybe even criminals...
>>123410658
Kind of irrelevant when you can switch everything out
>>123370818
do you have antialiasing turned on somehow? why does it look so good?
>>123411868
no him, but you can def turn on AA through the nvidia control panel if you have an nvdia card.
>>123388228
but how much more am I going to have to pay to get all the new content in the next year? $15 is pretty tempting...

>>123414475
I didn't realise this. Fuck that game, seriously. I bought in to alpha because I also wanted to see the game succeed and this is how they repay the early adopters?
>>123416339
Theres a reason /edg/ doesn't exist despite it being a "finished product" with an expansion just around the corner, m8.
>>123416689
this
/edg/ has been dead for a while now. I remember during the 2.0 reveal when they came over and shitposted the fuck out of /scg/, only to go back and get fucked by Braben and his VISION once again.
>>123414475
Literally shit all over the early players.
People on the ED forums:
"But......but.....you get free nigger skins for your spaceships!"
>>123416689
>Theres a reason /edg/ doesn't exist
Because the game is a shallow pile of hot garbage with nothing to do but grind?
>>123418591
Didn't have to state it explictly, but yes.
I melted down my Vanguard Warden LTI to buy a P-72 LTI... which I'm gonna use to upgrade to a Caterpillar. I already have a Gladius for rooty tooty shooty, didn't really see the point of the Warden.
Dumb idea? Okay idea? I figure worst case I can melt back down and CCU back into the warden with LTI again
What's the current ship ranking in AC?
F7M/Gladius/*?
>>123420157
Probably super hornet.
>>123419597
Good idea. Caterpillars sound like they will make good money by selling shit.
>>123420157
Hornets > Everything
Because IM mode exists
Because Gimbals in their current form exist
Because Ballistics in their current form exist
boiling everything down to "How many FOTM weapons slaved to a click can I mount on this", which the Hornet wins.
I need to put ~60€ on my Paypal account to un-fuck it and want to buy a ship this weekend. Thinking about either a Delta or a Hull A or B. Thoughts?
>>123424514
a hull would be cool, i hear the reliant might have cargo space too
>>123424514
For immediate fun, Delta. For future earnings, Hull-B since it can carry a shitload of cargo for its size.
>>123424514
The Delta is a great little ship. A bit fragile, but it punches way above its weight class, so it's a blast to fly.
>>123424596
>>123424651
Hull B it is then. Was kind of inclined towards it anyway, since the only other ships I have that can carry cargo are a Constellation (probably not that viable in early PU days) and an Avenger Titan (laughable amount).
SOON
>>123426303
2week lmao
>>123426303
I'm still bitter.I hope F42 managed to hammer it together into something that doesn't suck giant diseased balls, but let's be honest it's an uphill battle.
holy shit i just upgraded my LN into an Avenger Titan and the game is actually fun now
i wonder how much fun the Super Hornet fags must have ripping everyone apart

literally. kek
>>123425032
>constellation not viable in early PU days
U wot m8. The 4 S3s fuck shit up quickly.
>>123426303
I can't wait until this ship is flight ready simply because of all of it's weapons. Also, tacticool gameplay.scimitar is functionally better at everything though

the kind of language you don't need to know words for.
>>123427359
>space bricks
Assuming you're talking about the Scmitar, yes, it looks bad. But Functionality matters more to me than looks, so if Ship A looks better than ship B, but ship B can do the same job better but doesn't look good, ship B is the obvious choice. The redeemer looks.... slightly better than the Scimitar, but the scimitar has more functionality, making it the better choice option imo.

Probably has something to do with the fucking laser lightshow going on all over the map. Frame seems worse and worse every update they do.

my frame rate has gotten drastically better. There are some areas where fps drops are occurring.

>try engaging in reporting bugs
>PTU invite is 0, even after 5000 more get sent out
probably has something to do withholy shit i just want to play even if i can't get more then 10 continuous minutes of stability
>>123429946
I've got an i5 and a 970 and I get lots of framerate dips. Not sure what the magic bullet setting wise is.
Hey anons, I was reading about the whole "they only have $8 million left!" story last night. Not here to shitpost, just wondering whether the devs have proven that's false.
>>123430761
There's a couple optimizations forums that list changes to help By making a custom .cfg file. I'm running an i7 w/ a 980 and doing fine. I get anywhere from 20-60 fps depending on where I'm at.
>>123429214
>ugly and stupid
opinions are worthless, therefore your input on the ship has no meaning. It would be the same as saying it's the best looking ship. That has no impact on it's role and usage, familia.
>>123431373
Someone made a claim they only had 8 mil left. Did they provide evidence for their claim?
>>123431473
Did said claim provide evidence as to where they got their claim to begin with? There's been all sorts of claims surrounding this game. At the early stage there was the "its a scam" now its " their running out of money".
>believing click bait senpai
>>123432435
is this really what you people do all day? Just analyze whats in chris robert's house via pictures?
>>123432435
That piece of shit is 2.5k? Probably costs more than the TV.
It's his office
Here is the Austin studio's desk
Also CR doesn't have a "house"
He has a mansion, a flat in UK, and a recent house purchase in switzerland.
>>123432610
It's called a set piece. No shit it's expensive
>>123428323
I'm still salty the Brutus didn't win. Still hope they'll put it in some day.
>>123432541
It's an important purchase to make sure Star Citizen is the best FPS MMORPG FLYING UNIVERSE sim of all time
Also keep in mind they built a mocap studio and rented imaginarium for 66 days.
>>123432610
Well, it's supposed to be an aircraft wing. Makes sense since it's "Wingman's Hangar." It still costs less than a metal easel.
>>123432689
>set piece is very important to making a crowdfunded game
It's called spending the money on shit you can sell when everything fails.
>>123432610
2.5k for that ugly piece of shit?
>>123432916
This anon gets it. Assets hold value.
>>123432981
no, looks like 2,300
Wait is this thread still full of true believers?
2017 the PU will finally come out you guys think?
It's amazing to think people like you all exist, not a shred of doubt?
>>123433139
Considering what I'm playing right now on the ptu. Yes.
>>123433139
I would hope no one here has spent over $1000, let alone multiple thousands.
>>123433095
Sorry guys we are out of money and the game is "completed" in its current state
>sells studios mocap studios assets furniture etc

Go to bed Derek.
>>123433254
Are you playing it?
Or crashing constantly and forcing yourself to keep trying out of sunk cost?
>>123433763
> sunk cost
I'm currently $950 into star citizen over the last 3 years and honestly even if the game never came out or progressed past where it is, I am happy with my purchase.
I've enjoyed the time in the community, the anticipation and the fun of shopping at new sales. I've enjoyed the arena commander and the excitement of new features. I've gone to CitizenCon and enjoyed my time there.
It was money well spent
>>123433435
>>123434150
This
>>123433763
Oh no my $40 what ever shall I do. Im enjoying the shit out of it. I've got a dogfighting game, multiple game modes rentable ships, and an ai team fight. Gee whatever shall I do. Enjoy these beautiful graphics too?
>>123434150
Wow that's kind of pathetic. I can understand if you spent maybe a hundred dollars or less you might think these three years of development were worth it, but you spent a little under a grand. That just defies common sense, I'm assuming you've bought ships that aren't flyable yet, and yet you would still consider money well spent if development stopped right now?
>>123434705
>I can't believe you spent money on something that made you happy
People are free to spend on what they chose. What's pathetic is how judgemental over anothers purchase you're being.
>>123434705
mad cus poor
i think i spent around 300 dollars. i wanted to start on the bottom of the food chain so i kept my aurora, but added an m50 far before REC. damn that ship was just too sexy, and they way it sounds holy shit.
the rest of my account purchases are gifting 45-30 dollar auroras to my friends, and a medium drake hoodie when they went on sale
>>123432703
brutus was definitely robbed. in a just world it would have won, with the rememer taking second and and the pelican/f1 car/boreslang being tied for didn't-make-the-finals
>>123434705
Chris Roberts is selling dreams. Like in real life, sometimes those dreams never materialize. But the joy and hope those dreams generate makes it all worth it. Whether someone pays $100, $1,000, or $10,000, you really can't put a price on someone's dream.
>>123434705
It's called not being a poor piece of shit. I'm a software developer and I make around 100k a year. $1000 over 3 years is nothing to me
>>123432610
didn't that come with the austin office though? like, it was there when they bought the place. they said this multiple times way back on WMH.
>>123435531
lmao yeah they just fucking found a metal wing desk when they moved in
>>123433763
We've experienced enough of the gameplay to know that it is there, and it is functional.
All there is left is polish and features.
>>123435721
...yeah.
>>123435490
Well my dad works for Nintendo, faggot.
>>123434861
No, spending a thousand bucks on a project and being okay with it not being completed is pretty pathetic.
>>123436146
I didn't spend a thousand bucks on a project. I took a gamble and invested.
You see, once you become an adult and put on your big boy panties, you realize investments are inherently risks. Sometimes they pay out, sometimes they do not.
>>123436268
You didn't invest. You handed over money to someone. Had you invested, at least you could say "hey, I took a risk in an attempt to get something." You didn't even receive property.
>>123436526
Investing doesnt mean you get property idiot
>>123434861
It's not the amount of money he spent that was pathetic, really. It was the justifications for spending it. But you're right, I can't stop anyone from spending their money the way they want.
>>123435392
I never thought of it that way, although it honestly sounds kind of like a scam when you put it like that.
>>123436146
But it's going to be completed
It's basically completed right now already
>>123436268
That's not an investment, more like a preorder with added ship microtransactions. But nice ad hominem faggot.
>>123436779
lol get more mad poorfag. Enjoy your minimum wage job at the movie theatre while living in your parents basement.
I can afford to drop 1k on this game and it doesn't even affect my wallet.
>>123436765
>basically completed right now already
You are a retard if you think anything we have right now is in any completed state, and I'm not even a smartie in saying that.
>>123436765
>But it's going to be completed
It's coming along nicely.
>It's basically completed right now already
Absolutely not.
>>123436623
Yes it does. "Property" includes stock, bonds, etc.
>>123436146
I'm the one who spent 40 dipshit. And it's CROWDFUNDED KICKSTAR. NO SHIT IT MIGHT FAIL.
>>123436948
That's nice, kid. Charging it on mommy's credit card?
>>123436146
>stop spending your disposable income in ways I don't like!
What are you, my wife?
>>123437291
No man, don't you remember? Your wife left you for spending the kid's college fund on virtual space ships.
>>123437465
I want to know where you live if $1000 is enough to send kids to college.
>>123436654
>I never thought of it that way, although it honestly sounds kind of like a scam when you put it like that.
Well yeah, I was being sarcastic as fuck. Thing is, it's not even a scam because nobody was offered anything for their money. Just a dream. And people threw millions at Roberts for that dream. Even better, the dream is virtual and doesn't actually exist even if it did exist.
>these are actual physics objects that you can move around
Commencing operation noodleheist
>>123437598
It was a joke. There was a guy who spent his kid's college fund or remortgaged the house to buy more ships. Bottom line is his wife left him.
>>123437598
Chat is cringey as fuck. Even worse, they got a lot of their mods from there.
>>123437825
are you gonna put that in your ship?
I just bought Elite: Dangerous.It was on sale.
Any tips for a new player? I know a bunch of ex /edg/ people hang out here.
>>123434150
The ripest bait.At least I hope it's bait, Reddit has proven that this community is beyond reason.
>>123437216
Yeah, but taking a risk knowing it might fail and being totally fine with the game stopping production despite being 1k invested in it are two totally different things. And I didn't imply you were the guy who spent the thousand.
>>123438384
I love Faulty Towers.
It was such a great show.
>>123438384
I'm not ashamed of my purchases but then again I only bought a P-72 and nothing last year.
Hell I have a Glaive token I'll use some time in the new year too so it'll break the 2k barrier.;_;
