I have always been in favor of a penalty system for griefing, I totally understand the penalty/prison system to kind of mesh with pirating, I just have concerns on people being griefed or the system being abused to send innocent players into a game loop they shouldn't be in. We will have to wait and see how good this system works, but its not just pad ramming, I have been run into outside of the pad area and received crime stats for being hit, I can tell you right now, if I have to deal with a boring prison system when I didn't do anything wrong I wont be happy lol. There are a billion ways to handle or implement a penalty system, I feel like this was more or less created for SQ42 not for griefing or pirating.


If they actually fix most of the bugs in 3.8 it might be a decent patch, but half of those missions didn't work before anyways lol, my first 20 min into the PTU and we got a 30k, so that's not fixed either at this point. If they don't fix the 30k issue I doubt I will be playing this patch much either. I know its first wave, we will have to wait and see how it ends up. :)

You no longer have to spawn at PO for your first log in.
It now gives the following options for your first spawn point:
  • New Babbage
  • Area 18
  • Lorville
  • *PO (available 3.8, but appears to be removed as an option 3.9)
So you can start off at an area that has missions that interest you.

I've seen comments in Spectrum indicating that CIG mentioned recently that they plan to remove PO sometime after the new location on Crusader is implemented, though I don't know where CIG stated that.

More information. Damn. Thanks brother! This is really good to hear. Being able to down at New Babbage or Lorville is amazing!

Ramming/bumping in space doesn't seem to give crime stat anymore, I've done it a couple times on accident without any crime stat despite damage being incurred. The next time I'm on I should probably make a point of testing that.

Did some testing on pad ramming, it seems that even blocking the path of someone on the pad causes your ship to be impounded (500 aUEC to lift recovery your ship) as well as receive a reckless driving driver fine (1250 aUEC.) I also didn't receive crime stat for blatant pad ramming that destroyed the other ship and highly damaged mine (just impounded and fined, so hopefully the punishment for blatant pad ramming that causes damage/destruction will be increased.)

I cant test anything right now, first time I got in 20 min there was a 30k error, twice since then for some reason my computer locks up and restarts, not sure why, never had any issues prior to this PTU patch, all my other games and programs work without any issues.

Hey all, it's great to read about 3.9 finally coming together.
I just got my usual question: do mission states and reputation persist through logins/servers? I mean if I do the first one in a mission givers chain, then log, then come back the next day, do I need to do it again?
The mission chains interest me cos they seem like fun content, but I could never get past the first 1-2 parts of any chain due to bugs or server crashes.
It would also be nice if I didn't have to redo the first bounty missions to get to better paying ones...

I haven't tried the chain missions yet, but I know I've only had to do the first bounty hunter mission to unlock the better ones and the PvP missions once since my last recopy, I've had multiple logins across various servers since then.
Hurston has a separate one for unlocking the better paying ones there, but I haven't gotten around to trying that one yet.

That's a new one to me, have you tried deleting the /USER folder and running a Verify from the launcher?

Also, I've seen a lot of people commenting in Spectrum about system components running hotter with 3.9 than in previous builds, are you able to monitor temps to see if that could be the issue?

Oh my God ladies and gents. I just hopped into SC for the first time in . . .in . . .I have no fucking idea. It's been a long time. A very long time. I spent a good 3 hours just exploring Microtech and New Babbage. Never even left the planet. This game is gorgeous. Absolutely stunning! I am in awe.
