Given the lead balloon response to ships with no pilot guns, and CIG’s eventual slaving of some turrets on the Carrack to the pilot, I have to wonder if they won’t throw a pair of S3 to the pilot in the Apollo. Guess we’ll find out soon.

I’m still hoping the powerplant and cooler get knocked down from 1S3 to 2S2. Given the size and power needs neither ship needs an S3 reactor. IIRC, the Triage only uses one side for med beds and has a turret while the Medivac uses both sides for twice the selection of beds. The big deal for me...

Years ago I was the full time caregiver for my mother, who had strokes, was going blind, etc. I hooked up a monitor and a camera both on swing arms so she could read her newspaper. Mounted them to a bookcase into which they handily folded away to make getting in and out of the chair easy. I want...

It’s not in the trailer yet. Probably late Fall.

I stand corrected. Ayeteeone is right to look at the pitch rather than the yaw. The vid though, clearly showed a yaw flip twice, both in a second or less, and without independent control of the mains I don’t see a way to do that. I like Avenger but his numbers are very biased. He never uses...

The heat concerns me more than the size, but I think I need to pick the chair before I think about sitting the PC under it. Though I like that idea, it could cause it’s own heat problems. An RV is a tiny space for something that burns a lot of watts. That’s some of the reason to go VR instead...

I think Gelrin called it. I just can’t find a way to map main engines independently. So don’t expect to do what’s in the trailer. 3-4 seconds to flip a 180. View: https://youtu.be/bI8mXyl2Xmc?si=_jgCa_UBTvsn9_yg As to stats...

I get it but what we are seeing in the vid is the ship yawing at 4X the yaw rate. So something is up. AI says there is a custom individual thruster keybind. I think someone at CIG has custom bindings on the main engine groups, left and right. Without using the wing engines, the ship can’t turn...

I’m curious if it can snap the 180 we see in the trailer. That was pretty over the top. Looked like over 200* rotation/second on the X axis. Seriously, less than a second to be pointed the opposite way is NOT something the Talon can match. In one shot it looks like the center engine is dim, like...

While on the subject, I want to give a shout out to the Argo RAFT, which I consider one of the best interiors in game. Especially the common area with two bunks, kitchen, dining area and gun racks, it has always struck me as an ideal to aspire to in interiors. I’m not a hauler and would never...

400 watts. Yeah, I hope this is where we are headed and the days of huge boxes burning a kw, connected to huge screens burning more kw are numbered. I’m actually looking to put a setup in a travel trailer and they get very hot in summer. Running the AC constantly just to game seems...

This is in Erkul now, and at first glance I noted it comes with +12IR/+12EM armor. That’s really shit armor if you want to hide. Nonetheless, I looked at it with the obligatory stealth components and with shields on it puts out a very low signature. EM 2.7 is not record breaking, but it is...

Disney sends Pedro Pascal out to BLAME THE FANS one more time, claiming the toxic Marvel fan crowd is racist and misogynist because of lackluster performance of Fan 4 at the box office. Despite Conservatives gave it passable reviews, he calls out Trump supporters as the reason the film hasn’t...

There are some underwhelmed responses to the 230 SCM. It’s a smidge slower than the 325A and a lot slower than the Razor.

Just a quick note for the science geeks and investors. . . Here is one of the greatest theoretical physicists of our time, daring to say that all of quantum mechanics is wrong. Utterly wrong. Entirely wrong. Backwards wrong. In general, scientists who do this should be expected to be burned at...

Added to the Progress Tracker are Engineering, Crafting and FPS Shields and Scanning—all very welcome. Also look for the Fresnel Electric LMG. There’s some skuttlebutt and fuss over it—people looking forward to great things. We may find out by tomorrow. Crafting coming means maybe the Carrack...

Thanks. Sounds like you saved me both grief and pesos. Thanks again.

I’m thinking of settling up a mini-PC dedicated just for SC, centered around a narrow recliner chair with its cup-holders filled with sticks, PC hidden under the chair and no display—just a head mounted display. The main reason is to conserve space and avoid excess heat generation in a smallish...
