    SC's TTK (time to kill)

    They keep talking about weapons lockers in the ships. That may be the direction they are looking at. They also keep coming back to real world analogies. It seems that CR favors logical mechanics. They seem to be staying away from the easy, metagaming way out. Like you were saying, it will...

    so i'm thinking of designing an aux controller

    I spent a good deal of time today thinking about this while I was at work (my mind tends to wander). I love a good product design process. I thought about what would you need to have on this board as the bare necessity. It would need to be emergency items. After all, you have all the time in...

    SC's TTK (time to kill)

    So have found myself thinking about this off and on since I started in on SC. There are various mechanics in-game and in the future that make me seriously wonder how the "time to kill" will play out in the release version. In-game right now, they have shield management. For the future they...

    Immersive gameplay in SC alpha

    I think this will depend entirely on content. One of the hopes I have for SC, is that it will appeal to the masses. Once it releases and starts picking up speed, it will need to appeal to more than just the flight sim crowd. I hope that there is sufficient content to play SC without ever...

    TEST D&D

    My wife and I have a regular Saturday group now that has been going on for about a year and a half now. We have been using savage world. If it weren't for that, I would definitely be game. Also, I love being a nerd. Check out this video. It gets really applicable around the 5:00 mark. Can...

    RSI Polaris

    I used to be a whiskey guy through and through. One day though, decided to look for a better bottle of rum for my wife. She used to drink Sailor Jerry in her coke and I found this bottle that had a nice sack that could work as a dice bag. "Two birds with one stone". I brought it home and she...

    So how did you end up here?

    I have been a gamer for a very, very long time. So I routinely keep track of new games and am constantly hunting for a new internet home (so to speak). I like settling into one game for a while rather than playing a bunch of them simultaneously. I like learning about that game and feeling...

    Immersive gameplay in SC alpha

    That's the good stuff right there. I suspect experiences like that will become far more frequent once they implement the mechanics that they talked about in "death of a spaceman". If they put that stuff in, we won't have that option to suicide and respawn right back. When they first wrote...

    RSI Polaris

    So trolling around on the RSI forums, I ran into a post that pointed me to a RSI "transmission". On one of there news updates titled "Something Every Tuesday", they decided to put as the last line: (article link HERE) "All right, from the frantic waving of my producer, I think we have to take...

    Steam is allow refund for NMS, No matter how many hours

    I just had my first ticketed refund request refused. I am going to keep trying though until it gets through. I will keep writing tickets and explaining to steam why this should be refunded over and over and over until either I get my money back or Steam goes out of business. I can't believe I...

    I have found the perfect art addition to my home

    Honestly, have you guys seen this monster? Almost every single scifi space ship all lovingly labeled and sized next to each other so they can compare... themselves. I fully intend on taking the full version file to a print shop tomorrow and have it printed for my game room. The full version...

    Lets Talk About Guild/Squadron Member Cap !!

    There was an interview with CR that someone snagged at gamescom. Sam made a thread about it here: https://testsquadron.com/threads/star-citizen-insider-questions-for-chris-roberts-gamescom-2016.8320/#post-126323 CR talks about the instance limits and how they are working to increase that. I...

    The Lazerbeam Foundation ship buying extravaganza!

    This is true. There was that whole pay to win argument a while back. They did say that the LTI thing would be a very minor thing and that the insurance payments would be very minimal. However, I think this is only going to be the case at the beginning. Just look at the usual economy issue...

    Dreams vs. Reality

    I don't think that's the best case scenario at all. It starts out with "hell yea!" and ends with "wait, what?". I actually like my wife. She puts up with my never ending shenanigans...

    The Lazerbeam Foundation ship buying extravaganza!

    This is what I was thinking. There are both the inevitable citizen con sale in October (new concept ships maybe), and then of course the anniversary sale in November when most of the ships should be on sale. Between the two, almost every ship should be on sale and possibly a few we haven't...

    Prepping for Star Citizen-What I need to know

    You may want to consider carefully the HOTAS. I was using a X52 HOTAS until recently when I picked up a pair of T16000. It really felt much more intuitive than the HOTAS. It's difficult to describe. It just makes sense as a setup. In any controller (xbox controller, joystick, hotas, etc.)...

    Steam is allow refund for NMS, No matter how many hours

    This, absolutely this. It amazes me that CIG couldn't have had any better timing with their 3.0 demo. It finally brought together all the different elements that they have been talking about. It showed, for the first time, the cohesive experience that everyone previously could only imagine...

    Lets Talk About Guild/Squadron Member Cap !!

    With CIG allowing for simultaneous membership in 10 different orgs, it seems to me that they expect to have some massive orgs in the game. It allows players to be part of both mega-organizations and smaller, more single purpose organizations. This may birth even larger organizations than Test...

    Steam is allow refund for NMS, No matter how many hours

    That's what I ended up doing. I put in a ticket this morning and will keep trying until it is successful. However, I suspect there is already an internal policy regarding return requests on No Man's Sky. With all the drama, I would bet that Steam has had a hundred thousand or more return...
