Dang, got to it just before I did

Just curious, have you checked your firewall to make sure it is being allowed? You are running it as an administrator? You have deleted all previous copies of star citizen and have rebooted your computer after doing so?

I don't trust toggles. I want something more...absolute. JANE! HOW DO I STOP THIS CRAZY THING?!?!?!?

One trick you probably need to do. Go into the settings and bind a "set throttle to 0" key. There is currently a bug in the system that can result in either the forward thruster or the afterburner being engaged. The result is very high speed movement that you really can't stop. This is...

I am really confused about what people are complaining about. From what I have read and understood, this is basically saying that if you paid real money for a ship, you won't be able to lose it. Yes, you will need to pay some UEC in game to recover it that will cost more than the insurance...

even those people with 20-30k UEC at the start will probably be flying something like a Cutlass, Aurora, or Freelancer day 1. Even a Connie might be a little too expensive until you've padded your wallet a bit. Making money and building rep will be the keys to success during the live game...

Oh, before people also complain about the hauler making more than the miners... 1) miners are paid on what they produce. We blow up, no one gets paid and the owner gets a bill. If I was paying a flat fee, I would be making a lot more but risk losing a lot more money if we are hit 10 minutes in...

Montoya is correct in his statement and I was wrong in my *deleted* part of my post above. First Example: I mine and produce ore. When I am running flat out, I make 50 UEC per unit after production costs (number makes the math easier) Fuel runs me 10,000 UEC/run of 384 SCU of cargo. Fuel for...

If each size doubles firepower for missiles (1xS2=2xS1) in terms of damage (which seems to be the case for smaller missiles, but unknown for torps. ), then 4xS10=8xS9. That means a single spread of all 4 torpedoes does 1/3 more damage than the full salvo of a Retaliator. Then it can do that 6...

4xS10 tubes with 7 reloads each. 2xS3 missile racks with 16 missiles. Also, 6xS4 dual mount turrets (one of which is remote, the rest are crewed) and 1xS5 turret with dual mount (remote). Sorry, seeing a LOT of mis-information here. These are the current stats from CIG...

Oh, and a Polaris is nothing more than a bigger Retaliator. You might be wanting an Idris or Javelin. Those ships will have the same issues with making money as the Polaris...but will probably have an even tougher time making money.

It will be VERY difficult to make a living with a Polaris. The 315 is a good starter ship, but you will need something to pay the bills. From what understand about the game as it will be (at this point in time), your career will start small and then get big. From a military stand point, you...

No, from what I read, the fix has to be done in software and can’t be done with a firmware update. If this is true, Intel will have a HUGE number of people upset with them...worse then the people upset with Apple over the battery issue

one other caveat to my earlier saying about finding a reasonable deal that benefits both parties. It's been my observation that if one person wants a sweet deal on an a resource, then turns around and either resells or does some manufacturing and resells that for huge profits, it creates a huge...

Actually, patrol boats (PT boats) were designed to be a cheap threat to bigger ships and really didn’t do much at all to smaller ships (as there weren’t any really). PT boats routinely went up against destroyers. They were fast and able to move and maneuver much more quickly than the ships...

One of my uncles once boasted to my father about how much he ripped off another of my uncles when he sold him a car from the dealership he worked at. Unfortunately, my dad liked my other uncle (one of the people I got my middle name from) and told my mother about it. Now, telling one of the...

Flashlight bug is a big issue. Don’t take your helmet off unless you want to experience it. Btw, once you experience it, it’s very hard if not impossible to fix. My recommendation is don’t even bother with civilian clothing until the next major patch and even then, wait to see if it was...

@MegaMonkey and @Grimbli Umm, from what I recall, the eclipse will not fit in the Polaris. What ship hangars will the Eclipse fit into? It’s a sizable ship, to be certain. While it cannot fit into the Polaris, it should be able to operate snugly out of a Javelin hangar. Source...

Yep, but would that person also have been dropped out of quantum at the same point? No idea and it is hard to get people interested in escorting with no method of payment...
