Concept sales tomorrow (potentially new ships), free flight until March 20th, 2.3 soon™
Back in old /scg/ people used to shit on any form of playing with friends and being tactical n sheeit, but it clearly works

So it would be a turret of sorts? It'd be cool if it had S4s as turret guns with S1s as the ships fixed weapons to compensate.

Concept sale tomorrow is a Vanduul ship.

literally why
Fucking CIG jews.
>>135520364
Just downloaded, holy shit how is this thread so dead. More people need to play this game.
>>135526591
Thread is dead because there's nothing to talk about. There are a couple of threads the days after major updates, but right now nothing is happening except the wait for 2.3.
>>135526591
All conversations on all aspects of the game have been done to death over the years that this general have survived. But since you want the general to live, what would you like to discuss?
Bump for 2.3
(can't wake up)
final bump
So when's this game coming out?
>>135520364
Yeah, I was surprised its another vandull shit, just now with decorative non sword wings.
If I had a scythe, I'd be livid that they're doing this shit AGAIN, as though the lazy ass glaive wasn't bad enough.
And Still, the whole vandull aesthetic of skeletal with edges is garbage for that damage shader they made and the ranges you shoot them from.
Biggest ripoff in the crowdfunded game scene ever.
Let me tell you something, and I'll post the ToS if you are too crippled to find it. When you give them money, you are not "buying" a spaceship. You are not even "buying" a game. You are giving this company a "pledge", or gift, so they can build a game. You agree they may not deliver what they promise, and you agree they may not deliver a final product at all. You agree you cannot get a refund after 14 days.
The fucking thing will be, like, 30 bucks if/when it ever does release. Don't give them money now when you have no guarantees. It's stupid.
>>135536731twoweeks
>>135536807
Yeah, it's pretty disappointing. Not only another Vanduul ship, which are supposed to be rare, but also yet another fighter.
>>135538729
>You are giving this company a "pledge", or gift, so they can build a game
>You agree they may not deliver what they promise, and you agree they may not deliver a final product at all.
Congratulations anon, you understood the nature of crowdfunding.
>let people experience the tech
I believe it.
>>135538729
They've been given over $110 million.
But they're still suckering people out of money by releasing jpeg's of new ships, when most of the current ships they've already sold haven't even been made yet.
Fucking amazing.
Also whatever happened to this thing?
>>135540453
>its an old ship, don't worry)))
>despite being made later, nicer looking, bigger and stronger according to leaked hardpoints, and the hundreds of years old hornet being made to deal with the shitty ass scythe
Fucking hell. Ben is the cancer in CIG
will they be adding a procedural planet you can land on soon? I heard it's coming along much faster than they thought.
I'm pretty bored but I want to try out all the ships at least. Still not liking how ships blow up all at once now...
>>135538729
>The fucking thing will be, like, 30 bucks if/when it ever does release
they've already sold it at that price. And before you would get both SC and SQ42 for $45. Now they cost that much each. Only problem with this game is that it's taking years to make.
How many years before SC actually starts to look shitty and outdated and people lose interest? Or will cryengine updates make it look better?
>>135543046
>How many years before SC actually starts to look shitty and outdated and people lose interest
Already happening
Their lighting is still so garbage its looks worse than average AAA now. ROTR/Division/MGSV all look better
>>135540782

Released with 2.0 or 2.1.
>>135543046
>will they be adding a procedural planet you can land on soon? I heard it's coming along much faster than they thought.
Considering that Frankfurt did the procedural planet demo in like 2 months it shouldn't take that long.

>>135544342
>Considering that Frankfurt did the procedural planet demo in like 2 months it shouldn't take that long
The limiting factor is design. Using the Planetary scale does not fit the game's planned combat ranges, navigation, or physics.
Probably will just be wasted with autopiloted high speed cruise.
Shit's getting physically disappointing, with landing being automated by default because IFCS is twitchy shit.
The sale of the Vanduul ships is stupid, and I don't quite know how people cope with it.
>oh, it's just a clone made by Esperia. It's not a REAL vanduul ship... the guns, cockpit, frame, missiles, and armor are all the exact same thing as the Vanduuls using the exact same game files as the Vanduul, but our new lore solves that as it being made based on new discoveries from the UEE military (...)
It's fucking stupid. Expect F8 lightning/Vanduul bomber sale in no time. They'll just say "The F8 lightning are just extra made from the factory of a overloaded order/the bomber was found and replicated by Esperia! Totally not us going back on our word for more money"
>>135545725
They are in too deep to care
>>135545354
If I remember correctly the plan was something along the lines of 'you can land wherever you want on uninhabited planets etc. but if there's some sort of traffic control you need to request permission and they'll assign you an approach corridor which you have to follow and IFCS takes over the landing if you leave it'.
No idea how they plan to deal with the physics though.
>>135546820
Maybe you'll be able to click on a spot to autofly at
Then in theory you can fly at "cruise" speed to a different spot
Fact is orbital interactions demand at least 7-10km/s, too much for CIG's weapon design
How long will /scg/ last this time?
>>135547975
I'm going to bed in under two hours, so not long I bet.
Hopefully i won't wake up with 103 degree fever, sweating, chills, a cough that hurts my head, and a ded thread
Some you guys don't, which is understandable, but I still have hope that they can pull this off. It will take them until 2018 to make it all, but god damn if it's even half as good as described I would love it. Hopefully 2.3 has another increase in player count to something like 32. Or rather a big optimization pass to allow more than 45fps.
I can't give up hope yet
>>135548962
They'll technically make it, but it'll handle like as badly as a modern need for speed, graphics won't be very impressive either, and economy fucked over by fleet orgs.
>>135549617
>economy fucked ouver by fleet orgs
Confirmed for not knowing how it will work in SC. Players won't be able to influence the economy that much, and this is to avoid the EVE situation where massive groups run the show. They'll have advantages, obviously, but it won't be at that scale since it can ruin the gameplay.
In Null-sec/pirate areas? Team or die.
>>135547975
It'll probably die tonight when we all go to sleep.
>>135549906
Just like they would stop LTI
Or not sell new mil spec ships
They will balance ship costs by fleetfags and their far higher income than any starting player could make with sub-100 shit
At least the CIG defence force isn't here to shill the sale.bump
>tfw star citizen wasn't made in Unreal 4
It pisses me off so much.
dont die yet
>>135556263
What's so good about Unreal 4?
>>135559190
UE4 overall has better base tools. It has better AA than CE, more support from devs, better particle systems, and I think it generally looks better than CE. I also believe it would have been better able to support a game like SC than CE would have, because CE has given the devs of the game so much trouble over the few years it's been.
>>135559453
Too bad they can't switch without having to start all over again and having everyone panic.
>>135559803
It hurts me senpai ;_;
He only had to wait a few months for UE4. A few months could have saved him so much trouble. It could have saved us so much worry.
It could have saved us all.
>>135560079
Nah. There was no way he could have known UE4 was going to be released so soon or that it would actually be bretty good. Not with the announcements he had already made years before that point. And you can't just sit around the office, doing nothing waiting for something to drop into your lap. You've gotta do something, even if that means gutting an old engine and turning it into Frankenstein's Monster.
I agree, UE4 would probably have been a better objective choice, buy that's like denigrating the Germans for not making Stg. 44s standard issue in 1939.
I really hope that this game does not fail.
If it does crowdfunded games in general will take a hit.
>>135563219
That's my largest worry. Of course, faggots from the old general wanted it to fail for the tears of the people invested monetarily, but Star Citizen failing would deal a massive blow to gaming in general, especially crowdfunded ones.
i hope CIG realizes how much built up hype this game has for lots of fucking people, they have to pull through or this will possibly be the biggest joke in pc gaming history
but yeah dont get your hopes up anyone
ay
So, how much do you think the Blade will cost? Since it's essentially their version of a Gladius I'm guessing $150-200.
>>135520364
I aint even surprised. I have the same amount of respect left for CIG as I do to Korean cashshop mmo producersand at least they have finished games
>>135560079
>if only they had waited with their thumbs up their asses in the hopes that some other company would release a better engine for them to use
>I could be bitching about why it's taking them so long to make an overly ambitious game on that engine instead
>>135514382
Cringey speech but whatever works honestly.
Having the corvette be as small as 100 - 110 meters makes it basically the optimal main ship for groups of 12 fighters to be commanded from like in those videos, since it'll be maneuverable and shit. Although first we need to see large multicrew ships work, so Starfarer next

Did you pray to your lord and protector today, /scg/?
>>135574883
They have no reason to stop if those retards keep giving them money.
I thought the madness would subside with the delays, the grey market being undercut and oversaturated. And yet there are shmucks ready to open their wallet again and again.
I fear Star Citizen has reached that critical mass where its presence sustains a cycle of new customers who mature to whales. Every year new suckers are buying a copy and eventually a fleet from belief in the dream.
Why do people buy new ships when the starter package is the best possible deal? Buying better and more advanced ships is like throwing away game play. What are you going to do when Persistent Universe comes out and you already have the best and most expensive ships?
>>135574883
It's getting annoying to see CIG going back on their word again and again but honestly, it's a good business decision as long as whales keep buying shit. Sure, they have enough money, but there's no reason for them to stop at this point. The occasional bad press just gets deflected with
>but those are pledges to support game development
At this point it's pretty clear that they aren't just going to bag the cash and run off to some carribean island, so they might as well keep making money. The ships are going to get built anyway, and if sales might actually enable them to do more, good.
Another high profile exit at CIG will be happening this month.
>>135577972
Is it Tony Zurovec?
They dont have a lot of high profile devs left in there.

WHEN THE FUCK did generals come back on? I thought they were good for SC.
>>135518094
Now, I only wonder how much it's gonna cost. Looks like a shit scout just like the Xi'an, so 150 minimum?
>>135515639
Oh man.. i remember back in 2013 and 2014 the Cutlass homos were beyond delusional. I remember one claiming "It's ment to bust up an escort and disable a transport. It'll take care of a Freelancer easily!!"

Skippy is that you?
>>135577972

>>135581653
Probably a light fighter. In some early version of 2.x it was still in the game files apparently and came with dual S2 fixed and a single S2 gimbal plus some missiles. So yeah, it's basically a Vanduul Gladius with less missiles. $150 at least seems likely.
>>135582239
>came with dual S2 fixed and a single S2 gimbal plus some missiles
Now knowing that, if this ship is less than 200 dollars, the Xi'an owners will be fucking rioting.
>>135577164

This is how I started to feel about the game, only after seeing "pupil to planet".
>>135577164
Play the game however the fuck I feel instead of grinding newfag missions in my poorora until I get enough credits to do what I actually want to do in a real ship.
It's not an RPG, ships have roles, if you want to mine you need a mining ship, if you want to chart the edges of systems you need a ship with enough gas to get out there and wander around for a while without heading back to refuel.
If you wanna do Org level territory shenanigans you need either a cap ship or a relevant support vessel. I don't intend to spend two weeks flying around in a space sperm for no reason other than to appease some sort of "progression" autism.

>>135588591
When people finally realize that the only way of balancing missiles is making them not simple F&F, anon. SACLOS by your turret gunner or somesuch.
Or at the very least, far harder to lock, using better signature mechanics.
>>135594081
True, but for some reason the concept of missiles not being 'hurr lock on and fire' and having some sort of laser/TV guided projectile or something else that requires maintaining lock seems to be lost on most of the community. This also applies to having missiles with more range than 5-10km.
>muh ww2 in spess
>go play eve if you want to shoot at red dots from a distance
>>135594569
Well, Retaliator missiles can lock at 14km, so thats something.
I think they're just holding off on the range until they get some balance in.
Not like half the missiles hit stationary targets, can't believe thats actually intentional.
>>135594625
Missiles seem to work in AC, at least somewhat. They tend to hit Vanduul.
They're just extremely broken on the Crusader map and fly off in random directions and/or explode.
>>135593927
The b utthurt is going to be wonderful. I don't care since it's more money for CIG to make shit, but anyone who thought they could be special snowflakes are getting BTFO right now. The tears will be good.
>>135595670
I have never owned a Vanduul ship but I think its pretty shitty of them to devalue and demean owning one from a rarity perspective.
Preferably I wouldn't have anyone own them; make them a skill-based challenge to aquire.
>>135595847
Same here anon. They're fucking stupid. Vanduul lore says they self destruct rather than be boarded o anything like that. They've essentially locked off their entire fleet for no reason. Well, it might be for them to sell them all eventually. I would have loved to be in a vanduul capturing org, making profit off selling them in the game somehow, but that won't happen.
>>135596140
>for no reason
Nope, for one reason: to sell for hundreds of dollara despite no tactical value
Limit the sale to 1000, they could sell the fighter for $500 and make half a million dollars in an hour.
>>135597451
They would probably do that.
Star Marine when?
>>135602810
Doubt we're going to see it in a long time. Arena Commander tweaking has been almost suspended in favor of PU work, and the same applies to Star Marine since the FPS portion is essentially there as well. I'd guess we'll get it only after SQ42 is out.
>>135602810
SM was meant to be a tide-over until we got FPS within a larger universe.
We got the latter first, so definately back burner.

Blade has 2 TR2 main thrusters and 8 TR1 manoeuvring thrusters. Sabre has 2 TR3 and 8 TR2

worse than the Gladius.
$250 bucks for a shit tier collectors edition ship, It's statistically terrible so it's not like they're selling space superiority at a premium, but the whales will eat it up for being "rare" so CIG will still get money. I'm not gonna buy one, but I am mostly ok with this.

Thank god this anon>>135582239 told me about the stats, because I only finally became off by 50 dollars.Seriously, for the price, this is fucking ludicrous. Can someone please enlighten me as to what warrants a $250 price tag?
>>135631318
The Endeavor is going to get that shit stock chrome finish, isn't it anon? Please tell me it won't. But in higher priority, please tell me truthfully.
>>135633490
I'm guessing it's some bullshit about keeping the Vanduul ships more rare. Like, 150 dollarydoos of that price is pure prestige.
>>135631882
Shit likes this gets me kind of hyped, they're actually doing shit with all that money.

>>135633916
150 I understand and I would've upgraded to; that was my initial price point. But I'm guessing the price is higher than the Xi'an Scout with the same effectiveness because we aren't at war with the Xi'an, but we are with the Vanduul.
How many retards are going to eat up this ship's ridiculous price, and then cry later when it becomes shit?
Also, I'm retarded for asking this question. It's going to fucking happen, and it's just going to get even more fucking annoying.

I'll bite. Give me one reason why YOU don't like the blade. I know you don't, but I'm hoping it's for the same reason as mine.

If the Blade is actually true to stats, it'll be insane.
Starfarer looks the same as we saw the peeks of before, so obviously thats not a surprise.
>>135639203
Who dat?
>>135633662
All misc ships will likely get that finish when factory new. Maybe you'll be able to choose a color when you buy one.
It was said a long time ago they intend to include at minimum a Forza Motorsport tier painting system.
>>135643213
>If the Blade is actually true to stats, it'll be insane
For what purpose? Yes, it might weigh less, but it's still just a Gladius with less missiles and really not worth that much. Apart from that, it's likely that it can't even be upgraded properly because Vanduul ships aren't designed to fit human component sizes. Also without a significant skill advantage the chance to win against fighters like the Hornet is probably rather small.

Can't wait for comfy repair ship gameplay
>$50 store credit
I fucked up
>>135656005
You could just shell out $15 and grab a Delta while it's on sale.
>>135655896
Did you see the monthly mag for it? This will be the most useful ship in the game. Along with repair, it will be able to refuel as well. It also has a rearming module for giving ammo out to ships.
Fuck the corvette as a standard mini-fleet ship, the Crucible would be way more useful by being able to increase the range of the fighter squadron with fuel and repairs, or being able to replenish ammo for kinetic weapons.
>>135659056
Problem being of course is that the 'gameplay' will mostly consist of small minigames, so you would have to be comfortable with that.
>>135659269
>implying that would be a problem
I kind of still have my hopes on the NPCs being hired to do whatever extra tasks are needed. Of course, we have yet to see the advanced AI they plan for us to be able to hire/encounter, but from what they have shown of the AI it looks promising. If not, I think the benefits of the Crucible would make it worthwhile to most medium - hardcore players that seriously want to fly distances as groups of fighters. The uses of the crucible seem almost too good to be true. You do a strike on some faggots it space and then warp back to the place with the crucible to fix you up and continue on. The minigames are worth the post-combat effectiveness.
>>135659056
Yeah, after reading that I CCU'd my Reclaimer to a Crucible. Of all the industrial ships so far it's probably the best.
>>135659269
As long as it's not starliner-tier drink mixing it's alright. The idea of making armor stronger than before through using good materials and doing well in the minigame is pretty nice.
>>135660367
>The idea of making armor stronger than before through using good materials and doing well in the minigame is pretty nice.
Its alright for a side mechanic like MMOs use for crafting, but I wouldn't want to do it as my main job within a squadron
>>135589748
>>135660502
Then it's a good thing you're not required to do it
People who want to play fixer-upper with robot arms or their hangar's workbench can do it and sell shit on and people who don't can buy these goods and/or services from them
>>135660502
Yeah, that's true. But having mechanics like that is definitely making noncombat roles more appealing, even if it's just an occasional side-job or whatever.
On another note, I'm considering melting my meme Hornet and Delta to grab a Blade. I know the value is terrible, but I'm a big fan of the design. Already have a Sabre sitting around to use as a fighter. Thoughts?
>>135661070
3 x S2 on a ship lighter than an M50 with more mav thrusters sounds like a fun ship, anon.
As long as you're comfortable with it being overpriced as fuck.
>>135661070
>chromatic aberration on a fucking blueprint
Just get one in game. If Esperia is making a knock off then it wont be difficult to go down the ship dealer and just buy one.
>>135660502
Wanting to do it as a main job in a squadron depends on what the potential profit is. I think it would be worth it if you actually have some big attack job for your org.
>>135661070
Keep Hornet, sell Delta. The Blade is a literal waste of money. The appeal of looking at it won't last forever.

>>135678645
Some bits of it are paricles, but most of it are alpha images, or images with transparency. They're layered and offset to the camera and in different directions/orientations to give the illusion if a true particle system. While it looks ok, they aren't the same thing.

I thought it would be pretty apparent that power plants would not be the engines, they're more like car batteries or something.
