    Shadow Setup Guide + Feedback

    Very cool. Pro tip, as a former Jersey boy who spent a year in Florida. Do. Not. Look. Up. At. The. Spiders. In. The. Power. Lines. Yeah, for some reason my wife wanted to get a season's pass to Disney. They have some good rates for in-state residents...I'm not a big fan of the evil empire...

    From my other thread...I guess the tl;dr is a) the 1060 is still a great card (despite all the Nvidia marketing and bleeding edge hype) and b) your connection to the Shadow servers and our internet infrastructure is always going to be the weakest link. See below:

    Dude! How could you possibly think of leaving Jersey?

    On the thread I started a couple months ago, I listed these as the "typical use cases off the top of my head" : If you have a 6 core i5 and a 1060, you have a decent enough computer. You really don't need this at all. I have to say, I they haven't upgraded their virtual machine specs in over a...

    You don't really "look up" ping, you check it out for yourself. The way you do that is...step 1, go to google.com and enter in "How do I check my ping" and maybe add what your OS is :p If you have a Mac, you can do this from your network control panel, or even just open up a terminal window...

    Hey, I previously posted a thread on this. I didn't play Star Citizen on my MacBook Air, but there wasn't any reason why I couldn't have. I use my MBA in bed, and I was playing some Steam games on it. Your host rig doesn't really matter, you are just running a virtual machine (albeit, one that...

    lol, I was weak and bought a Heartseeker, too!

    I haven't played around with it for a couple months, but I found it worked really well. If you used joysticks, you had to have them connected to USB 3 ports, and there was one fiddly bit about getting them to work, but other than that, it was great! Definitely check it out if your rig is having...

    Are we at the point of the thread where we can start shit-posting? I found this entertaining... View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oK158ih4smY

    Disney Star Wars theme park

    blech, I truly believe Disney is the Evil Empire, so I'm not going...but if I did, I'd make sure I got some blue milk, lol: https://nypost.com/2019/02/28/this-is-what-disneys-epic-new-star-wars-land-will-look-like/

    Dune games incoming, should I get my hopes up?

    I believe the Buddha said that "Hope causes pain." More from the early 1990's: Besides, we already had this gem: View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=2&v=D93RFwQsis4

    Event ideas

    That would be great! It will be even better when the grenade launchers are in-game, lol! As for another event, combat related, I'm thinking we should get people used to turrets, and to escorting bigger capital ships. Maybe we could have group vs. group, where one group is just fighters and the...

    10 Min Propaganda

    I'm glad to see that the lack of creativity I inherited wound up with people who could actually make use of it! There are frickin' awesome!

    Interesting dogfighting tips video

    Honestly, the circle strafing of 3.x and no penalty, coupled with the constant shifting of "this weapon is OP", along with the bugs and everything has me totally avoiding all dog-fighting. I thought the value of the video was more in the "meta," i.e., these are factors you need to weigh before...

    Interesting dogfighting tips video

    lol, the old "take my advice, I'm not using it" problem. I believe that, since there really is no penalty for dying (yet) in the game, other than claiming your ship and re-spawning, you don't have to be ultra careful. I did like the way he talked about carefully choosing a fight, and running...

    Interesting dogfighting tips video

    This dude shares some of his tips, tactics, and strategies...very interesting to watch, especially the dogfighting sequences. The TL;DR is, if you are in a group, don't let a troll bait you to go after him 1v1. But it gives a good summary of his thought process, and how he isn't afraid to run...
