    My prediction for the Ship Show Down

    So far, my own internal bracket is 3/3, but I thought the 400i would be a lot closer, predicting the Scorpius to win for the fighters and the Carrack by a small margin over the 600i MSR tomorrow over the Cutlass Black, a tossup between the Raft and FL-M, but probably Raft. Whichever wins...

    What are your predictions for Citizencon 2022?

    I think we all forgot that it was CR that announced the dates/timeframes for 3.18 and 4.0…and when CR talks time, you should never believe in it…so…3.18 is going to be a stretch for IAE and the AnniVersary Sale since I don’t think they have even started testing that in the PTU and they said 2-3...

    Database Wipe Incoming 3.17.2

    You lose all the items you have, including cash, armor, ships, etc. that you purchased in-game. They are going to try and not wipe your reputations. The only items you will keep is the stuff you bought with real money or were credited to your account via rewards or subscription flair. I've been...

    The Starfield vs Star Citizen Controversy

    Montoya, I think you make some good points, but you also missed a few things as well. 1) even though I am a huge supporter of SC, I feel that the extended delay in development is starting to result in some serious Tech debt. CIG has added a lot of new content to ships over the past few years...

    Caterpillar internal rework on the way?

    Many things need to happen for 3.18. For instance, the Carrack cargo cannot be accessed form the outside at present. The Caterpillar sides don't move up and down, etc. CIG has made some...interesting...decisions with regards to cargo and I am not sure how they will be received. Some few...

    Starfield Gameplay reveal

    Yeah, when you asked if it sounded familiar, I said Star Citizen. It certainly seemed like they were having a few digs in at SC. It also looks like SC may (repeat may) not have the lock on full planet tech anymore. We will see if it’s just landing zones, or if the entire planet can be...

    Newbie question: What does planning a Fleet means in SC?

    Insurance will be required for all ships (cash, credit, UEC) if you want to receive a new ship in case yours is destroyed. If you fly without insurance, you WILL lose your ship. the insurance being talked about is hull insurance, which means it cover your hull and the base components. Standard...

    Looking to buy something fairly specs-y

    First off, nothing lasts. Also, your target price is probably too low. A 3080Ti for instance is 1100-1200 dollars US (to convert to pounds, multiple by .8...but that's the price here in the US, not sure how prices change in the UK) So...what's your target time to replace once you get this...

    Maverick

    Maverick did not fly a light fighter in the original Top Gun. He flew the F14, which would be classified as a heavy fighter. Therefore, he flew something more akin to the Super Hornet (in SC) or even a Scorpius, NOT the Gladius. Even the F18 Super Hornet would again be closer to the F-7C.

    Legionnaire Q&A

    Can it force ships to undock? Once docked, can it use it's engines to push the other ship around? Do we need to all go out and grab two or three for our connie so that we can add 4-6 turrets, and add maneuverability to our ships? Once this type of system is in place, will we be able to dock our...

    Newbie question: What does planning a Fleet means in SC?

    First off, ”fleet” is a term that is bandied about, but is often used incorrectly when it comes to SC. A fleet is a set of ships that sails together. Test can organize several ”fleets” from among the various members of Test that are willing to either supply or crew ships. what we have as...

    Vulture at DefenseCon

    yep! That's the Wall-E box. Put salvaged materials in, and it compacts it down into 1 SCU units of scrapfor you to sell. Remember though, you are also supposed to be able to salvage things like powerplants, weapons, coolers, etc., not just the hull material. So go in, pull the stuff out and...

    The Vulture is on the floor at DefenseCon and is open for people to walk through it. It looks really good. Some pictured you can use the ladder to get up to the cockpit without going through the main hull The storage compartment. Doesn't look that big, so don't expect to be able to...
