    Zeus II

    So the Fury is about half the mass and volume of the Cyclone TR when its in landing configuration. The Cyclone is 6 L x 8.75 W x 3.5 H and 27k kg. The Fury operational (and when contracted) is 7 (6.13) L x 5.4 (3.27) W x 3.8 (3) H and 15k kg. So looks like a fit. There may actually be room for...

    A look at the new heavy tractor beam gun

    Yes, I was wondering about that too. The tests they did indicate the rocks that can be towed are much smaller than you’d guess, but they probably mass out similar to ships.

    Zeus II

    Is anyone familiar enough with the size of the Cyclone (which we’re told will fit in the Zeus) as compared to the Fury? Will the Fury likewise fit in the Zeus?

    Mugging Area

    Repeated muggings have been reported where a player on the train near Arcorp 18 continues to OD characters with a med gun and steal all their stuff. So beware. At least three episodes have been reported so there are probably more.

    Zeus II

    So I guess I’m hooked on this ship. Both the ES and MR call to me. If they’re as quick and nimble as the Warden, and if they’re stealthy, I think I’m all in. I just can’t get away from the looks and given it comes stock with fixed guns, I’m thinking they made it pretty maneuverable. I adore the...

    A look at the new heavy tractor beam gun

    Great stuff. I want to see what happens if you grab a person and slam them into the side of a cage, etc. Has anyone spotted the S3 ship mounted tractor? I read in another group yesterday that the tractor is missing off the nose of the 315P.

    South Park saves Star Wars?!

    Well Naff, at least be honest about my change of heart. I’m not in dispute with everyone here. There is one person here I blocked a couple years ago and have no dealings with and there is you. You were disingenuous with me and you inserted yourself here specifically to poison the well and derail...

    Point taken. I cleaned it up.

    South Park saves Star Wars?!

    No actually, there was a single thread on this apolitical issue until Montoya closed it down due to unnecessary sniveling and deceit. It had survived several interesting pivots and necros until you decided to parade your cheesy virtue signaling. Now you’ve returned to poison the well. It’s...

    South Park saves Star Wars?!

    So much has happened and so much been written this last week about the South Park parody of Disney, that is daunting even to try to sum up. In short however: South Park launched into a penetrating criticism of many things Disney, poking fun where it was fun to poke. They lambasted Snow White...

    New capital ships in Star Citizen or Bengal variants?

    I think Aegis, Anvil, Crusader and RSI are about all you’ll see. Still, just a couple cap ships each is a nice selection. I think we’re pretty close to where we need to be. Too many more and we’ll see sales wane.

    The Fall of the Mouse of Usher

    So were they able to ban the studios using AI instead of writers, or are the writers in charge of AI use? And did the writers get the pay protections they were after?

    Creatives vs. Engineers

    During my years in aerospace I many times made the argument that physicists and engineers need each other. They each think they can do the other’s job but experience shows that’s all ego talking. While a creative (physicist) thinks he can do the job of an engineer, it always turns out fubar...

    New capital ships in Star Citizen or Bengal variants?

    My take away is CIG may release a small handful of cap ships all sharing the aft third of the Bengal in common. That seems plausible since it would save them a huge amount of time on every ship design, and therefore allow them to offer more cap ships in total. If this is where they’re headed...

    The Fall of the Mouse of Usher

    The writers strike ended last week. Word was they won big. I’m not familiar with the details but they were fighting hard to stop AI from being used to replace writers. One supposes they won that fight. BTW, AI written plots are quite good. I’ve been following someone on YouTube called “The AI...
