Every time.
Bought the Logitech MX Masters hoping I could use the sidescroll wheel for strafe up/down. Neither Star Citizen nor Erectile Dysfunction recognize the wheel as an analog input or even as a fucking digital key. I think no game at all recognizes it. Anyone got any idea how to make it work?

Why do ships experience atmosphere-like turbulence while flying through space?
>>123558013
>turbulance
That's him piloting, not wind pushing him around. The sound? It just makes it feel "cool".
>>123558075
But you can see the ship shaking violently, or rather it looks like the station is shaking violently because the perspective is attached to the ship.
>>123558013
changes in thrust
>>123558189
Well, I would assume because it makes it feel more relateable. It's the same with having any sound in space. I honestly don't mind.
>>123557995
trying right now thanks, the mouse came with special software but it only allows me to bind windows functions to the buttons and wheels not remap them freely.
>>123558189
>But you can see the ship shaking violently
One of the best things about travel in E:D is that shaking.
It gives the experience weight instead of it just feeling like weightless sliding around even though that would be more realistic.
>>123558321
Right now I'm not on my rig, but look carefully, one of those binds is for mapping ot to any key, combo or timed sequence
>>123558454

>>123558498
eventhough it's an logitech mouse the logitech gaming program won't recognize it at all. Fucking shit man. I noticed that I actually can bind keystrokes to the mouse buttons via the logitech options program that came with the mouse, but for some fucking reason I can't do it with the scrollwheel. Trying xpadder right now.

CIG dev adds insight to Vanguard.
>>123559508
already did it, I think no one is even trying it to use as a gaming mouse. I found a program called X-Mouse Button control, that recognizes the horizontal scroll wheel as Tilt Wheel left and right. I can bind a simulated keystroke on them so I bound r and f to it. It works in browsers and all but Star Citizen still won't accept it. baka desu senpai thanks for trying to help though

People aren't happy with the vanguard?
I forget what ship that even is, googled it and looked at a youtube "preview" and it looked alright
>>123560451
Damn it...
So what's the deal with the red gladius from the last thread? An easter egg in 2.0 or an edit?
How do I compare ships? I can't find it on the new page...

The only thing that disappoints me about the Vanguard is pic related.
EWAR components look like some jury-rigged bullshit

That's concept art and the real thing will look nothing like that.

Then you will be disappointed.
Why else do you think there is a thing going on in the Vanguard thread?
>>123562110
No but given the CIGs new policy of disregarding old concept art and just reusing assets I can confidently say that wit won't look like that.
>>123562073
That's the empty casquet, you have to pay a lot more for the actual content.
>>123562231
There aren't any EWAR assets to reuse.
>>123562231
>Why else do you think there is a thing going on in the Vanguard thread?
Same reason there was a thing going on about Herald and Orion's cockpit? To ruin everything good?
>>123562231
I think they'll probably stick with it.
Nothing to reuse, and it isn't concept art, its also modelled.
>>123562485

So was the entire Vanguard but they threw that out.
Go compare what is in the hanger now to that holo-table version.

Not sure 'throwing the entire Vanguard out' was really the correct term to use, anon
considering they're extremely similar.
But the Sentinel as far as I can tell isn't in Hangar anyway
>>123562798
Yup. Would be cool if they add something like directional mic for it, I can see that having a role or at least be fun to fuck around with.
>>123563045
>Would be cool if they add something like directional mic for it
what the fuck are you talking about
>>123563030
Are you blind?
It looks completely different.
The engines are closer together.
The engines themselves have little collars on them.
All the intake bits are different (literally copied from the Retaliator).
The center of the ship has lost it's chunkiness and is more 'aerodynamic' like the Tali.
They took the Vanguard rough model and then squished it into a Retaliator clone, trading all it's aggressiveness for shitty space plane dynamics and that AWFUL paint job.
How is this game different from all the other popular space games like EVE Online or Elite Dangerous? Both have been out for years now.
>>123562975
It doesn't matter, they will have to force its niche, as information will always travel faster through real world internet than through the in-game wormholes.

SC is first peraon with interactions to everything. It's too much to explain in a single post.
>ED
The game looks good but was unbelievably boring. It lacks so much content that i find it hard to even justify spending 20 dollars for it.
As far as SC is going right now it will have plenty more content by PU alpha 3.0 (or whatever they call the next big update)
I know this is probably way too late but just in case skelebro or another based anon is here I'm gonna try my luck

It isn't to be honest but Frontier just have no clue how to make a fun game.
They know how to make lots of content but are unable to build a structure around the content to make it interesting.

Got my Vanguard melted and replaced with an LTI Caterpillar with the new sale just now. Thank fuck. Still have a 6 Month insurance Gladius package as well for shooty.
However now I have $30 store credit from melting down my Sentinel BUK. Suggestions on what to get? Not sure if it's worth another P-72 LTI since I'll never buy another ship or upgrade
>>123567949
Don't be sad, if you stay on /scg/ and don't shitpost, Skelebro will one day surely look kindly on you and gift you the ship you want.
>>123566029
I don't think she has much to worry about carreer wise. There's the new XFiles coming up, and she's always had work when she needs it She looks like she just walked in from the wind and a hard night of drinking in that pic though.

it's slightly narrower overall, and the effect is exacerbated by the folded wings in the hangar shot, but they're identical beyond that.

>>123570318
Wouldn't that downgrade your trainer to a normal Hornet? Why would you do this?
>>123570419
The upgrade doesn't apply automatically, so he can just keep it in his hangar till the Sabre is ready
>>123570318
Entirely dependent on your playstyle bruh
if you like the Gladius more than the Hornet, go for the Sabre.
>>123570507
Good point. As long as he does that no reason not to I guess, if he really wants a Sabre. I think the Super Hornet is meant to be a better ship, but some people seem to really LOVE that generic space jet fighter look the Sabre has.
>>123570318
Hold onto the CCU until Sabre becomes flight ready.

>>123571385
Not even a little bit
Almost every ship to every ship is possible
>>123571070
BUT WAIT! THERE'S MORE!
>>123571534
Why?
>>123571592
So I can swap to every other ship when ever I want and they come available with no added cost? It sucks that there are no free CCUs for the Constellation Andromeda Also: This gonna take a while.
is it ok to get this game now? should i get a joy stick for this?
>>123571756
Theres no cost anyway, and all the tokens get invalidated eventually.
Guessing you at least have a ship to apply all this shit to
>>123571805
wait a month
some super rad shit just came out but it's currently only open to super leet tester people, and it's broken as fuck anyway and crashes every 20 minutes
people that are in claim it's the best 20 minutes ever though
>>123571951
should i get a joystick?
>>123571845
>Guessing you at least have a ship to apply all this shit to
yes
>Theres no cost anyway, and all the tokens get invalidated eventually.
there is, if I would melt them down I would lose LTI and also not every ship is available all the time, getting the tokens right now will make sure I'll be able to swap when I want until they make the tokens invalid. Which will take a couple of years considering how slow the development process is to be honest. Maybe they will never get invalidated since, some of them actually cost money and it would be crazy bad PR if they just invalidate some CCU someone forgot to apply after he bought it.
Oh! I suddenly remembered this exists. Haven't been here for a long time. I even have a ship in it as a "thanks for Freelancer, sorry for pirating it". So how is the game coming along?
>>123571435
Fuck there goes my wallet.
Now I need to finally work out what to do with all these ships I don't want.
I have:
325a with my original backer LTI on it
Mustang Beta with not much on it
Reliant LTI
Cutlass Blue with 2 years insurance
The only ships out of those I really want are the Reliant and the Cutlass Blue, though if I start melting and CCUing I guess having some form of multicrew ship would be really nice.
>>123563273
I happen to like what they've done to it. Looks less overdesigned and slicker.
>>123571845
>and all the tokens get invalidated eventually.
what?
>>123572027
They specifically warn you that they expire, I doubt they'll not actually follow through.
Might be a warning near the date.
>>123572306
CCU tokens expire.
>>123572129
The most dangerous thing in SC is having leftover store credit
I have $55 in credit
This is a trap
>>123572129
melt the blue and CCU the 325a into a LTI blue
>>123572389
and you get the credits back or what?
>>123572445
>and you get the credits back or what?
I don't know man
stores in real life sell gift cards, they expire too and you get nothing.
>>123572532
wew
also bumping >>123570057
>>123572445
Yeah that's what i plan, and then I end up with store credit like >>123572389 warns against. I guess I could also melt the NEET Mustang and buy an m50 with the spare, but I'm worried they'll never fix it and just keep nerfing the poor thing forever. One advantage of my current ridiculous set up of ships I don't like is all the options I get in Arena Commander: A Mustang, an Aurora, a Cutlass and an 325a.
If I had known we'd eventually get a system like this I never would have got this Cutlass Blue
I didn't miss anything did I? Also: Fuck why is the Caterpillar so arkwardly priced, it should have been 5bucks more expensive.
>>123571247
The Starfarer has more utility and better defenses, the Hull-C has the mass-shipping advantage, and the Delta is a fun as fuck fighter to fly. For what you want to do, if you bought a Hull-B, that makes it a choice between the Hull-C and the Starfarer.
Due to the weapons setup of the Starfarer, and the ability to switch roles from a refueler to a freighter, or even a hardened freighter if you manage to get your hands on a Starfarer-G, or the missile pod frontal attachment, the Starfarer has the most options available to you in-universe.
So if you want options: Starfarer.
If you want to haul everything possible: Hull-C.
If you want to be able to fly a glass fighter around: Delta.

I will try for hours for that sweet 5 seconds of gameplay and crash and actually feel good about it. That's how much hype I have
>>123590518
What do you think I've been doing for the past few days? It's difficult to even get onto a server to get to that crash even if you do try for hours. Their matchmaking service is, apparently, that botched.

Have you seen the money the game makes recently? Stay gely, Derek.
>The Org Chart has Chris at the helm, but for all his glory and power at CIG, he very much seems at the mercy of Sandi's demands. The mechanisms of her control over him are kind of irrelevant-- however that control was/is attained, she's got it, and wields it incredibly effectively. Because Chris does what she wants, even when it causes him grief (letting Wingman go, apparently) or familial tension (Sandi making demands of Erin?), embarrassment ("you're not going to just let the Escapist and those traitor $&%#'s get away with this are you, Chris?! ARE YOU?! WRITE A LETTER and DEFEND ME!!!")
>The re-centralization in Santa Monica and gutting of Austin made no business sense-- it was absolutely a huge waste of backer money and time. Real estate, dev talent, employee costs of living are all much pricier there-- yet it served Sandi's purposes of making herself the Star of Star Citizen and of rebooting that acting career she never quite managed to get off the ground.
>One of the ironies of this is that she all but admits that their marriage itself came about as a result of her as a young, hungry Aussie actress flipping through the proverbial Australian Movie Industry phone book and find Chris's name as the Boy Wonder Director with a Costner project underway at Ascendant Studios. If he'd been at Descendant Pictures, she might've gone after some other director at a film company that started with "B"-- and Star Citizen, its hour never arriving, wouldn't be slouching towards Beta to be stillborn...

M50 LTI - space parties and crying in my cockpit. If it ever actually becomes an interceptor again I'll store it in my reclaimer for surprise parties while on scavenging operations
P-72 Archimedes LTI - just in case I ever need more LTI, and also because right now it does everything the M50 does only better.

How so?
Besides the way it looks and memes

However, there is also the other end of the retard spectrum where people believe the Redeemer will make it into the game with its current stats.
>>123610527
>proper Power Armor?
It will have powered armour.
Light types, suitable for boarding action.
The heaviest thing possible might eventually end up like some sort of Terminator armor, optimized for boarding actions and locking down corridors.
Not MI power armour, because that is for a different mission profile.
>>123617294
This is what I want to do.
Get in org with some emp ships and boarding action gameplay
>>123582436
I'd be disappointed too.I'm sorry, friend.
>>123617294
>Not MI power armour, because that is for a different mission profile.
We could see something bigger later that's more suited to military operations on the ground. The UEE Army is described as "highly mechanized" but they don't see much action since the UEE hasn't had any ground wars since the Tevarin Wars hundreds of years before the game takes place
I just upgraded the Avenger Stalker I had from the begining of time to a EMP meme variant.
And they don't allow me to just put the old Avenger with an empty cargo hold in the hangar.
I don't even get a replacement Avenger to fuck around with in AC.
Kinda sucks. I feel lonely without a penguin.
>>123617926
For some later update with more ground combat, yeah, it would be really fucking awesome to have ODST-like guys jumping out of dropships, and Marauder suits being launched from ships in orbit in their drop pods.
Avenger Stalker or EMP? Stalker seems more straightforward but EMP sounds like a lot of fun
>>123619376
For something called "warlock" it sounds like it'll be incredibly niche and bland
Should I upgrade the cutlass black or blue to something else?
I remember reading some time ago that one of the abilities the Caterpillar would have would be to ram into the side of a ship and grapple on with some kind of hooks, then open up and send marines in.

What's the point of buying the package when you could buy them all separately and get LTI
>>123621240
>cutlass black

why would you want to two cutlasses anyway
can a freelancer navigate small jump points?
>>123621563
still a thing
aside from the "tevaarin boarding craft" that hasn't been named yet, it's the only one that's had that idea specifically mentioned.
I would bet on it though. you will still have to disable the other ship's engines first, one ship can't attach to another while they're both moving, it's an engine limitation that they're not even going to attempt to solve.
>>123565315
this is bait
>>123622076
Still, it sounds like a lot of fun. I really want to play the support role for a small pirate gang. A bunch of other pirates fly around and disable some larger ships while I hide in waiting behind an asteroid, then once the ship is disabled, I move in, latch on, and we begin the looting.
>>123621835
I think I remember hearing that only single seater ships will be able to navigate the smallest jump points.
Anyone know anything about stuttering making the game unplayable? I used to be able to play but haven't hopped on in a while, just got my 2.0 PTU invite and reinstalled it.
Now when I'm in game, even on low settings, I get massive stuttering every few seconds. For about 3-6 seconds the game runs at 60 fps, then just freezes for 8-10 seconds. Returns, rinse repeat.
NVIdia GTX 970, 16gb of ram... like I said, used to play this at 60 fps but now something is weird and I'm not sure what it is

I'm an original backer but I have a shitty citizen number, in the 400,000s.

You'll more than likely be able to buy a Mustang Omega in the PU, but the AMD livery will only get rarer and rarer as people CCU them.

I don't have anything to compare it to, as it's my only ship, so it's the only fun I know.
>>123638994
It's been said you'll get enough money for an Aurora if you finish Sq42, so I'd just wait to get a ship in game.
Precision mode doesn't seem very precise. What am I doing wrong? I am in "PRE" mode in IFCS and when I tap my thrusters, I go flying. Sure, it reduces my velocity to 0 after I let go, but I cant seem to do any gradual motion
>>123639228
Fire up multiplayer free flight and land on one of the pads. A lot of people use ff to hang out and goof off in, and most people are cool with you checking their ship out if you ask them in chat.

it's just the old folder name switcheroo you've been able to do since the hangar module released before AC was even a thing. we figured this shit out itt years ago. I guess I'm grateful to know it still works for large world though.
>>123640739
nothing effective. if somebody gets out of their ship the only thing stopping you from getting in is their sidearm
>>123641167
If they get away with your ship just pull down the console and type "stuck", and you'll suicide. Then press X and you'll activate self destruct on your ship.
Got into the PTU 2.0.
It's fucking awful. I lost any hope for SC unless they release a magic patch that fixes the gorillion problems with the game.
And lets not talk about the bugs.
>>123626390
>https://as.reddit.com/r/starcitizen/comments/3uj93k/no_ptu_access_play_it_solo/
So with this, one could set up their own private server, provided they block all the ports used for CIG telemetry?
>>123641460
I seem to recall there was an easier way to do that; that you could initiate self destruct in your ship without having to die first.
I'd bet that in 2.0 at least, if you respawn your ship it will activate. I wish it was a handy button though so you could watch them blow in the distance.

>and let's not talk about the bugs
but that is what you're talking about. I first responded under the assumption you were some Smart cheerleader throwing out weak bait, but if you're a streamer maybe you're just new to alpha gameplay? what are some of the 'gorrillion problems' then, aside from the crashes?
>>123642475
'gorrillion problems'
I guess that the only thing I can't really classify as bug is:
>Movements is clunky as fuck
>Game runs terribly even on high end machines. Hangar didn't have this problem.
About bugs
>Nearly impossible to get log on Crusader without having to attempt 2-3 times
>Connection errors everywhere
>The hangar elevator is fucked, you can connect only through main menu
>Collision physics is fucked or dunno, 25% implemented
>Half of the sounds missing or the intern of my ship isn't supposed to have air
>Clipping through the Constellation hull, teleports you outside
>Game crashes every 10 minutes or so
>Self destruct doesn't work so you get stuck in the ship without possibility to respawn
>Warp destinations don't show on the HUD
It doesn't even look like an alpha. It looks like random stuff put together. And I've seen quite some alpha versions of games, since I used to work at a vidya localization company.
>>123643101
I really want them to succeed and make a SWG 2.0. I really really do. But unless we get a miracle this feels like it's gonna take ages to get fixed.

>>123659257
Rocket pods were removed at some point, can't remember if they were ever added back in because they were broken as fuck
Don't know what the stock loadout is, but monoboating with the same guns is always a superior loadout to mixed.
>>123662408
Rocket Pods seem to be back in. At least they fire in freeflight. They aren't attached properly though.
Stock loadout is Missiles, dual Badgers and dual M3As.

>>123662885
Turns out the rocket pods are still broken, or at least unusable. The targeting reticle is red all the time and it's borderline impossible to hit, even at 300m. Also the ship starts falling apart after taking 2-3 hits.

Where does the Sabre stand in terms of a combat ship? Same firepower as the Hornet but with less armor?
>>123675093
It's huge, it has no internal space just lots of mystery room where spaceship things happen. It's the size the Vanguard probably should be.
>>123675114
Stealth hornet with less armour and supposedly nimble.
Direct upgrade from the Gladius.
>>123675175
>it has no internal space
>>123675224
Its a different role.
Can't say its a direct upgrade until we get all the systems online, really.
>>123675114
Meant to be between the Gladius and the Hornet
The Sabre has 2 size 3 engines where the Hornet has 1 size 4 so the Sabre should be fairly quicker
>>123675316
As in it doesn't have a cabin.
>>123675319
Its Aegis' next generation space superiority ship.
Its not a step down from the Hornet.
>>123672539
>>123672172
Anyone?
>>123675506
Neither is a Gladius two steps down from a Hornet.
It's in between the two in terms of speed and firepower, or is meant to be
>>123675653
Its faster than the Hornet.
Firepower isn't directly "combat ability" either. Not like it lacks in that, nor missile load which is higher than the Hornet, either.
>>123675523
You answered your own question. The Mustang Beta is the comfiest ship in your price bracket, but other ships around that price are better at other things.
The beta is a fine ship to start with.

Point out where this became a tangental discussion, you illiterate fuck
>>123676240
The Avenger is kinda comfy inside, it actually has two rooms in there, one with a bed and another for storage. Look at videos on youtube of people looking at it in their hangar if you are interested. I personally hate how the ship looks on the outside but its nice inside.
The 300 series probably won't be massively rebalanced, but hopefully they will fix some of the terrible design decisions for the interior.
What don't you like about your Mustang Beta? What do you want different?
>>123676329
You know the Gladius is faster than the Hornet, right? The Hornet is the heaviest fighter in its range.

>miniature capital ship
That does not exist, and the Constellation/Retaliator cannot be lone-wolfed effectively. The retaliator is primarily a heavy torpedo bomber. Try attacking a ship without anyone in your turrets. Literally a single Aurora could destroy you, and you have no primary weapons. The constellation? More ability to lone-wolf since it has primary weapons, but if even an aurora gets behind you, you're fucked. Can both ships fly? Yes, they require one pilot, but going alone is an all around horrible idea, and I wouldn't call that any kind of lone-wolfing.
>>123671458
Well under that definition, probably the Caterpillar.
>>123676427
I'd love some exploration variant for the Avenger, that would be perfect.
I'm comparing it with the 315p right now, and they're very similar, with perfect specs for what I want, however, its interior is terrible.
The beta has a perfect comfy interior, but zero storage capacity and I don't think I would be able to keep it as a viable backup.
Do we know about a possible 315p interior redesign or averger exploration variant?
>>123678603
Honestly for your price range you are not going to get a great explorer ship. You are looking at the starter ship bracket. I'd just stick with what you have, and work up to getting a Freelancer in game, and fit it with exploration components.
>>123678603
With the way things are going, 'exploration variants' might be a thing of the past.
Want to explore in your Avenger?
Great! You've got a full sized bed, and an oversized cargo area that we know can be filled to the point where you can't get out that way. Fill it with a fuel tank, maybe even wing drop tanks that replace the missile pylons. Original Avenger had drop tanks there in the first place.
Replace some of the internal components that we know are entirely replacable with heavier grade sensors, engines with high efficiency versions, and hey presto, exploration ship.
By the time exploration is even a full fledged profession, I think we'll see this kind of thing.
Not like the 315p isn't exactly that; a 300i with components

>>123679976
where's the fun in that? I have principles, anon.
>>123680139
It's a joke, family. I laugh at the retards who bought packages with almost every ship. They're like "THIS IS THE GAME I'VE ALWAYS WANTED, I WILL PAY WHATEVER IT TAKES TO HELP" and then realize that they basically skipped most of the game progression and will get bored after a few months while they have it all. 1 combat ship and 1 general purpose vehicle is perfect.
>>123680592
>and then realize that they basically skipped most of the game progression and will get bored after a few months while they have it all.
You know that the entire pitch is that ships won't be a method of progression, right
and they'll all have their pros and cons
and that ship equipment is several times more expensive than the hull itself
>>123668729
i wish your true wasn't meme
>>123679067
I don't think any of the smallest ships will be that great at anything but short range exploration, you need to get to the Freelancer tier for a true dedicated explorer.
You are right though, components are what matter, you'll be able to mix and match and swap in components that do what you want to do.
To that anon, just go for the ship you like the most.
>>123680592
I know, that's why I don't want to spend more than what I did.
>>123680790
>ships won't be a method of progression

>>123681323
I don't plan on playing a game that isn't fun and you get bored of in a week if you don't have something new.
The gameplay itself should be reward enough. If it isn't, thats a failure of a game.
>>123681449
The idea isn't to get something new every week. Stop moving the goalposts. Much like earning new guns and weapon customizations (skins, barrels, scopes, etc) in FPS games is generally seen as the main progression, SC has the ability to earn ships with customizations (colors, components, upgrade slots, etc).
The same as an FPS, you have fun while completing objectives, but there's no point if there's no goal to aim towards, like weapons and customizations. In SC, the gameplay will be fun, but if there's no goal like ships and customizations, it will get boring to most eventually.
>>123681449
You're going to miss the progression aspect, no matter what, I find it a very rewarding and fun part in any game, it's ok if you don't, but don't bullshit.
>>123682147
>Much like earning new guns and weapon customizations (skins, barrels, scopes, etc) in FPS games is generally seen as the main progression

>The reason the FPS industry is absolutely shit, summed up in two sentences
Yeah, nah. The most popular FPS games on the planet are free from that absolute cancer, and are still popular.
Know why? Because they don't rely on grinding away for skins, they have fun gameplay. If you're relying on 'progression' to keep your users hooked, your game is shit.
Hi, I've been a distant observer to this game but I MIGHT be willing to put some dosh down
The KRUGER P-72 ARCHIMEDES - LTI caught my attention since it seems rather cheap for lifetime insurance
Or should I just play It safe and get an Aurora?
OR play it even more safe and just go back to watching how this shit turns out
>>123682720
The P-72 is a standalone ship.
the reason its so cheap is that it isn't a game package.
>>123682720
If you don't own the game yet you need a package. You can either grab one of the limited $30 packs or a LN package.
Only get the P-72 if you want to upgrade it to something else to get LTI on it. It's also worthless on its own since it doesn't have a jump drive and needs a carrier ship.

>>123690120
Literally Sabre.
Sabre is the "Designed for stealth, speed and Hit&Run from the ground up" Fighter.
>>123690120
Hornet Ghost is nothing more than an adaptation of a non-stealthy ship for moderate reduction of some signatures, so it makes perfect sense for it not to look stealthy.
Its like the Advanced Super Hornet, an airframe later adapted but with no basis in the role.
the Sabre and Prowler will probably end up looking a lot more stealthy, and we know they will functionally be more so.

In reality, the only reason for its existence, is to allow anyone to have LTI on any ship they desire throughout the sale.

Damn. There are a few .ini tweaks that might help. Don't have 'em, though. Disabling User Account Control might help for access violations. According to this guide it's a processor action, though, not a thing the game itself is doing.
>>123700918
M50 isn't as well armed as a A-Wing. If it wasn't for the price point I'd call it a TIE Fighter, since it moves fast, but if you hit it, it shatters.
Seems that revalidating your files through the launcher or reinstalling the program might help, but those are blanket problem solvers, really, not a guarantee.
>>123700730
yeah the delta is more x-wing than anything, the hornet is the poster boy combat ship but they're nothing alike beyond that.

Dude, these ships are in a constant state of change. They're being tweaked and revisioned every fucking day. How can we possibly answer what looks 'good' to you?
Remember, that's all this is, theorycrafting and what looks decent on paper. Even shit as simple as the flight model change from 1.3 to 2.0 has created new definitions on what these ships are, or can do.
I can't answer these questions because no one has the answers to them, just their opinions based on old versions of shit that won't even exist once the game is out.
You have to buy these ships based on nothing but your own desires. Look at the in-game fluff lore about them, watch a few youtubes of people flying around with them, or, better yet, actually fly them using the REC system in-game. These "wut shud i buy lolz?" questions can never give you what you want, because we don't even know what the fuck is happening anymore.
>>123703925
>Panther and Bengal are capital ships you can't own
It's still 5 ships made by RSI but it would be nice if we had more ships we could own from RSI, they are supposed to be a common brand in the persistent universe, it would be weird to just see connies, auroras and orions.

> Even shit as simple as the flight model change from 1.3 to 2.0 has created new definitions on what these ships are, or can do.
The IFCS / flight model changes were anything but minor, anon. They were absolutely massive.
>>123704824
There's a lot of classes of ship we haven't seen yet. Corvettes, Light Cruisers, Cruisers, Battlecruisers, Battleships, and so on. RSI apparently has a big market in big ships.
>>123704886
I hope the next cruiser sale is limited for more of this
>>123669815
But that's exactly the reason why. He thinks that because it's exactly how his game would be coded.
>>123704886

>>123706041
They've been fairly adamant about not selling anything larger than a Javelin Destroyer. I think the Corvette sale is probably going to cause a lot of drama, chiefly among 890J owners.

He's also using prices based on one-off sales rather than bulk sales, as well as cherry picking the most expensive versions of the product in question to make it seem like the equipment costs more than it really does.

Considering buying a ship. Is the 315p a good ship for cargo and shootin' as a fighter and explorer?
>>123720420
It is basically good at none of that so far. Unless by "cargo" you mean "handbag." It's sort of okay at fighting at best, and we don't know enough about exploring yet, but I'm not sure you can fit a good enough sensor suite to really do that well, either.

Can buy ships with lifetime insurance right now.
>>123721081
How much in dollerydoos?
>>123721161
..Same price, just get a P-72 and upgrade up.
>>123720996
You can get an LTI Archimedes and upgrade it immediately into whatever ship you want. Unless you want a package, in which case you're shit out of luck with insurance.
>>123720420
It's a bit fragile, and while it does carry some cargo, it's capacity smaller than any other ship besides the 300i and ships with no cargo at all.
>>123720996
You could pick up an Avenger or Herald. The Avenger can carry some cargo and the Herald should be able to mount somewhat decent sensors because it's a ship focused on electronics.
Also what
>>123721081
said. Just buy a P-72 or Avenger Stalker and upgrade from there.
>>123721341
>Avenger Stalker
I fucked up, meant to say Titan.
>>123721314
Will that mean no squadron 42 since no package?
>>123721553
Yeah, you need a package first then you can worry about getting LTI ships ontop of that. No package = no Sq42 and no access to the PU either unless they change that down the road.
>>123721463
I heard the guns on the avengers suck ass. True? It also doesn't have a jump drive?
>>123721553
That is exactly what it means. You'd have to buy that separately.
>>123721681
>It also doesn't have a jump drive?
All ships have a jump drive, or are capable of mounting them, other than the parasite fighters - P-52, P-72, etc.
Avenger's main gun is the highest DPS gun in the game, but its not built to have the highest overall firepower.
>>123721670
>unless they change that down the road
Yeah, once stuff is being released the'll split up S42 and the PU, so new backers have to buy them separately.
Source: Gamestar interview
>>123721681
The main gun of the Avenger is pretty good. However, the two side guns on the wings are currently stuck as suckerpunches in the baby PU, and are therefore absolutely useless.

>>123721854
>This game really seems to Jew the money out of people who have a budget.
Not really, the $30 packages that were sold this week all came with both PU access and SQ42.
You can buy an Aurora game package for like $45 at any time.
Cheaper than most AAA titles
if I buy a package does that mean the ship insurance starts when I first boot up the game or when the game is out of beta?
>>123721854
Everything in the store aside from skins and shit maybe will be obtainable in game so $45 for a game this size is a bargain since going by AAA standards, this should be about $100 + a subscription cost or yearly expansion pass and exclusive content locked behind paywalls that isn't simply cosmeticSC could still become like that but backing now will likely allow you to avoid most of it rather than buying it after it gets through the beta stage
>>123722282
When its out of beta.
>>123722282
When it comes out of beta.
Insurance is also stated in game time, which means, as of the last post about it, 1 month real time = 3 months game time or something I think
>>123722459
>1 month game time = months game time
So it's basically like a one month subscription if you have only 4 months insurance
>>123722923
Yeah, hull insurance is supposed to be one of the cheapest upkeep costs though with fuel, munitions, and other insurance such as weapon and cargo being more expensive
>>123722319
Nigga this game is creeping into a f2p/p2w model like war thunder where everything is technically free because you can gain premium currency from wagers (rewarded for consecutive logins) but takes a disgusting amount of grinding to get without paying. Though at least you keep what you unlock in WT.
FFS we're only allowed to try the ships we "pledged for" (but when we point out the ship we paid for has been made shit, its suddenly we "donated for the development ships are just a bonus") and they eventually, and very begrudgingly, made a RENTAL system for gear in AC, like they're fucking NEXON.

It's pretty hard to jew money out of people who have a fixed amount of money that they feel like spending on a game. Just buy a $45 pack and worry about getting bigger ships when the game comes out in full and you don't have to spend another dime on it.This is coming from a guy who has blown $920 on this game. I don't regret it, but my advice to you is to back the game for the game, and not for a shiny concept ship.
>>123721553
A package means you own a copy of the game. You can own a $500 ship and still not be able to play the game if you don't own a package. Squadron 42 comes with game packages until the end of the year. After that it's supposedly becoming a game all of its own with a separate price of admission and all.

Upgraded a Delta to a Gladiator todaybecause I failed the skill check. Really like how it flies. Drifts a lot, but it feels like I'm in control of where it's going. Also even without missiles it's an incredibly stable gun platform that doesn't twitch around when maneuvering. They really nailed the flight model for it.
Or did I fuck up and the Delta is actually better after getting used to it?
>>123726321
Yes, it covers stock equipment.
>>123726321
The hull includes all stock equipment otherwise there would be no reason for anyone to ever buy the 300i variants other than the 350r
>>123726378
You should have probably got an SH.
Gameplay related question time for those who have Alpha:
Is the acceleration from combat to cruise speed significantly different between ship types and sizes? Like the M50 and 300R can go from zero to sanic faster than a Constellation or Hornet right?
Is there any hope sticks and throttles will play nicely with the new display screen functionality similar to ED? I know it isn't supposed to be quick for combat and it's basically a preferences thing, but like every action in the game it looks clunky. Especially when you can't see the extra screens like in the Retaliator without switching to head tracking.
I hope it grows to extend to ship functionality like they said it should. So then you can avoid binding non-essential things like landing gear and lights to valuable keys and simply navigate to the switch or button in to do so in the actual cockpit.

>>123726689
I tried to fly a friends SH actually, but I really fucking hate it for some reason. The way it flies just feels bad.
Also I like explosions.
>>123726707
>Is there any hope sticks and throttles will play nicely with the new display screen functionality similar to ED?
Very little to none, its very much reliant on a few analog-input elements that are very clunky using the stick.
However, the quick keybinds that already exist cover most of what is on the immediately-available HUD, the lower-down in-detail stuff isn't meant for combat usage.
>>123727062
>also I like explosions
You mean you like seeing flairs and missiles go away? Think of this: In the advance of 2.0, things are just going to get larger and closer to what the PU will be. In a gladiator or retaliator where you have 4 - 5 torps, what are you going to do if they miss? They're expensive and easy to dodge. Given that the Gladiator has forward facing guns, have something like a SH would probably be more beneficial for regular combat. If you were going out to bomb some specific ship, the bobmers obviously would be crucial, but in regular battles fighters would be the better option. If you are a scrub and can't handle fast vehicles, you'll probably need a Vanguard.
>>123726173
>If I lose to someone who payed less money than me, it's wrong!

hownew.ru
>>123727573
I highly doubt they'll keep flares and chaff the way they are currently as almighty god defences. Missiles should be able to reject countermeasure signatures and opponents should need to dispense more than just 1 or 2 to decoy a missile.
Torpedoes are also for use on larger ships that can't maneuver as well, they don't get decoyed since they aren't guided, or at least they shouldn't be/will have unguided options.
>>123727709
So you know how the SC economy will work with all of the job types, and that you can say that it isn't an actual economy?
Tell us more ;)
>>123727824
Or, alternatively, violent, unpredictable movement in addition to flare or chaff should be a guaranteed escape, not simply the act of shitting out the proper countermeasure.
>>123727573
>what are you going to do if they miss
Try to fire up cruise mode or die probably. Also like >>123727824 said, the Gladiator and Retaliator currently have big missiles instead of unguided torps.
Of course a fighter would be more useful in most situations, but I just don't like flying them. I prefer slower, tankier ships, which is why I also have a Vanguard.
>>123728028
Ask away.
:^)
>>123728035
For missiles that have a lot of inertia sure, but a missile will always be able to sustain more Gs than a person in the cockpit of a ship so unpredictable movement shouldn't be able to decoy all missiles. It's more of a game than a sim though so I can see them making it possible to evade almost any missile except ones that do minimal damage maybe with maneuvering.
>>123728028
It's well known production of items will not be player controlled. No crafting, only 'overclocking' which like flight control is likely to be mediocre
That's enough to be totally different
>>123723650
Picked up one of the 30 dollar Aurora package deals for a friend. And got myself a package and a Constellation for myself. All in all, 300 dollars spent on Star Citizen, but after having played WoW for 5 years, what's 300 bucks?
>>123728384
If it works like the other games Chris Roberts has helmed, the hardest to avoid missiles will also do the least damage. What we have now is anything but, unfortunately, with all missiles pretty much fucking you right up regardless if they even get close. Forgetting the chaff/flare button in mid-flight is instant death, even if you try to dodge like a maniac. Except sometimes, when the missiles forget what they were doing randomly and unpredictably, sometimes mere moments after they're fired.
>>123728384
It seems like any time I launch a missile at someone they just evade it.
Every time someone launches a missile at me I just evade it.
If it's a heat seeker, just start popping flares and head off in a straight line.
If it's an electronic missile, dump chaff, then turn and burn
Missiles are borderline useless unless you sneak up on someone who is already in a dogfight.
>>123726173

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VyWijRL9VfA
>>123729083
Yeah, from what I recall of freelancer the missiles worked fine in that, although you could also carry retarded amounts of them I think. I doubt they're doing much balancing right now though as they have a lot of other things which take a much higher level of priority. Balance and fine tweaking of weapon behaviour can happen once they've got the PU functioning and the ships implemented and updated.
>>123729193
The way missiles are right now is you only have to drop 1 flare or 1 chaff and it has a 100% chance of decoying the missile, you don't even need to maneuver. I can't see them keeping it that way.

>>123731524
4 of the Vanguards 5 forward mounted guns are only size 2 and apparently you cant make them any bigger.
Probably to balance the fact that you can give it a size 5 fixed
>>123731753
I'm not sure if you can actually upgrade them, so I made sure to end up with a Harbinger and it's supposedly "high power lasers." So at least there's that. I still hate that they chopped the Vanguard up into three ships that each do a portion of what the Vanguard was billed as.
>Vanguard has 4 S2s(max) and 1 S5(max)

>potential for E-war, a few weaker torps, and has a turret with 2 S2s

>metric fucktons of a variety of missiles
>Potential for decent cargo carrying, 2 turrets with dual S1s, eventually larger shields, longer range(?), and has a snub fighter
>maneuverability is OK according to >>123729314
Maybe the Vanguard can make up in more maneuverability or something, but currently it looks like an Andromeda might outclass it. Perhaps the damage output from S4 to S5 is 150% or something.
It certainly can't stay like it is right now though. The Connie is powerful, has an extra fighter, and can carry decent cargo.
>>123733349
>It certainly can't stay like it is right now though.
Stay what like right now? The Vanguard isn't in the game. You're comparing stats and performance in flux to a thing that literally doesn't exist to verify or experience.
Calm the fuck down forumjockey.
>>123733508
But the constellation and SH are. Something about one of them will have to change drastically. The constellation has ok maneuverability - enough to mostly keep an SH in front of it, and apparently the Vanguard is supposed to be less maneuverable than a hornet. This means that either the S5 gun is suped-up to hell to compensate, or the constellation will move a lot slower, thus making any future, large ships a lot slower than what they could have been in relation to our first 2 multicrew ships.
You can make inferences based on unknowns if you have the information surrounding it.

To be honest, the displays are sort of hard to get used to, and display absolutely everything, including landing platforms, other pilots, the station itself if you're near one, and what feels like a half dozen other dots that serve no purpose. All of these are colored and shaped the same on the radar regardless of whether you've targeted them.
If you're unlucky, your helmet HUD has also vanished into the aether, so you don't know how fast you're going, you don't get the arrow to the target (provided you actually managed to target the person shooting at you, which is another ordeal), and you don't have targeting reticules.
If you don't manage to target the guy who's firing at you, a lot of the help the game gives you just doesn't seem to show up in 2.0.

Your cruisespeed is defined by your acceleration meaning every ship gets 10 seconds of acceleration and depending on the acceleration they have they end up at different top speeds for cruise.

Right as he opens the Aurora's hatch, they get attacked by a bunch of asshats and the Aurora evaporates.
Will they make it so that you can enter the Aurora without using "Use" after you have unlocked the hatch? The video shows pretty well why making it a dependant on a button press kinda causes issues.
Then he gets picked up again and they almost manage to get the fuck out while he's lying in the Aurora's bed and the hatch stays open for whatever reason. Kinda retarded that opening your Aurora in space decompresses the interior space.

Are there any good videos of a fully crewed Connie flying around and fucking people up?

>Are there any good videos of a fully crewed Connie flying around and fucking people up?
Not really, because
A) PTU isn't nearly stable enough for that to happen regularly
B) Connies aren't fucking anyone up, they're getting wasted by single Hornets
>>123761715
Shit.
So is there at least duos of pilot and gunner killing Connies and laughing at their victims?
>>123761810
Theres videos of a single Hornet going Connie/Retaliator hunting, getting multiple kills by himself, and he isn't really that good.
Or rather, it doesn't take much to do, at least.
>>123761858
And I guess none of the guys doing videos have any skill, right?
I wish there was a scrub/gud tagging system to make it easier to search for competent players.
Fucking let's players.

What is its capacity like as a straight freighter, not for fuel? It's so much sexier than the Hulls with their weird spindles.
I know this triggers some of the sensitive fags here, but it's the closest to the Firefly ship of anything yet revealed.

>>123762032
I'm not sure, but probably not a lot. Why do looks matter when the Hulls are superior in every way for carrying dry-goods? They can make serious bank doing that, and their method of carrying cargo is one of the most efficient ways.

>>123762179
What were you expecting?
>>123762032
Something in the mid 3000s, compared to the Hull C's 4600 units.
>>123762280
HULL series is superior at pure carrying capacity, but vastly inferior at defending themselves, meaning they require escorts.
Its a matter of if you're going to make more profit in a Freelancer with no escort, Starfarer with light escort, or HULL with heavy escort, the nature of your cargo, and the area you're going through, as well as the JP you'll be using.
Calling HULLs most efficient isn't strictly true.

I will build a fleet of small and compact ships.

>>123762014
Is the vanduul glaive weak or the connie incredibly armoured?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PajwXmZHrFw
>>123762280
and the obvious weak point of the spindle is going to be arbitrarily made super durable.
For fucks sake they spent so much time simulating shit with thrusters so damage and cargo can have emergent effects only to arbitrarily limit the ships.
>>123762179
What happened here?
>>123762280
A hull b carry twice as much as a Freelancer but offer no protection on its own. Hulls will be pirates favorite prey.
>>123762280
>be attacked
>cargo will take most of the damages once the shields are down
Closed ships have less carrying capacity most of the time but they offer this extra protection of the goods.

>>123762859
Can the 1000x folded blades be used to ram other ships more efficiently? And I also guess that the vanduul ships will always attack in group of at least 10 if they are this weak.
>>123762992
Shouldn't blackouts behave differently because of the unusual seating arrangement?

>>123762579
I believe that's how it's supposed to be?
>>123762445
I find it hard to believe that the Starfarer can carry more than half of what the Hull C can carry.
>>123685223
Can this be OP pic?
>>123763253
>I believe that's how it's supposed to be?
and that's why they are not superior in any way for carrying dry-goods. Sometimes they are good and sometimes there are better options.
>>123763403
They have more carrying capacity, therefore they are better at carrying dry-goods than a Starfarer. Whether a pirate decides to attack a retarded Hull or Starfarer pilot that didn't get an escort has no impact on the carrying capacity of either ship. The Starfarer would mainly do fueling stuff, which is alright imo. The entire body was built around that, with the large fuel scoops and processor and the fuel rod. But the Hull C, or the entire hull series, was built around cargo (or the cargo was built around it!), and is has dedicated hardware for doing so, which is basically the entire ship.
>>123763641
That's just 1 example for a specific situation. I can easily see a situation where I would prefer a Freelancer over a Hull B for transport of goods to provide another example. Then we got the BMM. Starfarer G or Starliner for when you need to tank a lot of damage. Sometimes you may want a cargo ship with a good scanner. etc
>>123726173
>Solo-esque
If the PTU has proven anything it's that a solo connie is FUCKED against most fighters. Wallet warriors literally getting BTFO.
I'm so god damn excited to kill these people and steal their ships. I think I might actually get a boner while doing so.
>>123763861
Your preference does not change the numbers of cargo carrying capacity. The entire discussion was about the Starfarer carrying dry cargo compared to the Hull series (primarily Hull C, since they're about the same size). The bottom line is that they were both designed around 2 different philosophies - 1 built with cargo in mind, and 1 built with fuel in mind. The Hull C obviously can carry dry goods better than the Starfarer, and that's OK. The Hull C cannot process or distribute fuel, which was the selling point of the Starfarer. They were built with different jobs in mind, so one will do something better than the other, and vice versa. I don't even understand how this is an issue.
Also, new thread when?
>>123763289
Agreed.

>Space pirate
my nigger. I will ejaculate when I see an 890J in flames. I just want to torp big ships to be honest, family. Making videos of large ships getting ruined will piss so many people off, it would be hilarious to hear them bitch about it.
>>123764295
>Your preference does not change the numbers of cargo carrying capacity.
That is not relevant. I'm telling you that there is more to being a good cargoship than the amount of CU.
>The entire discussion was about the Starfarer carrying dry cargo compared to the Hull series
No it wasn't. The post you replied to was a reply to this >>123762280 post
Go buy a Hull if you like them this much. I don't care
>>123764295
Feel free to make it.
