    The practical use of Carrier birds.

    Have to agree about Drake ships.. just can't get interested in stuff built to the lowest possible spec. In game terms I understand the concept - build utilitarian that can function on whatever components are at hand, especially away from population centers. It also makes pirates an easier...

    Kraken And Capital Ship Upkeep Costs

    Fixed it for ya.. Isn't it obvious why @Montoya welcomes anybody and everybody into Test? Org TAXES to pay for that Super Elite Fleet of Auroras..

    Kraken And Capital Ship Upkeep Costs

    Yes, CIG seem to understand that time is the real commodity of value. The prison loop and Tony Z's discussion of it make that abundantly clear. They have addressed the idea that capitol ships will take a lot of time to replace. How long is probably not known yet. As for costs.. Fuel...

    [Video] Inside Gaming takes another jab at Star Citizen

    Mad respect for your ability to sit through their crap boss. When this popped up I could not make it past the first 20 seconds. Absurd behavior as entertainment......

    Coronavirus COVID-19 Thread

    @Montoya this might deserve its own thread.. I did not find it mentioned elsewhere when searching. As gamers, one thing our group has available is processing power. So let's kick in some of that to fight this beast. These are two co-operative projects that have been researching the virus...

    Welcome @DevArchitect ! Your handle seems familiar to me, though I can't place why.

    Padawan Pilot

    The most likely reason is some level of desync between the clients and server. This manifests in lot of ways within the game, but is most obvious when shooting because of the short timeframes involved. i.e. the fact that the arrow was even in his airspace got to his client later than some of...

    Padawan Pilot

    It is possible to go through the entire customization process on the pledge store without spending anything to evaluate kit. The packages available are a mixed bag - generally better Grade B components but the weapons themselves often don't make sense and will probably still need changing. If...

    Stealth Recon

    @Shadow Reaper and @Phil What I am reading here is you two are actually discussing apples and oranges. Maybe its a terminology thing, so here's a couple of thoughts. *Stealth Recon* as Shadow is using it, means getting up close and personal. In MMO terms, this is your rogue, sneaking up for...

    Missile Update

    No.. the smaller it is, the higher its maneuverability and the shorter it's range. With the existing combination of warhead values and hit rates, the S1 might actually be doing more for you. It definitely gives you more chances to actually do damage. StarcitizenDB seems to be down so I am...

    I'm not a complete idiot, there are pieces missing.

    Welcome! 'Complete' is such a subjective concept in gaming.. and gamers. There are a few of us around.

    Exploration Travel effort within the galaxy

    Agreed. While the safe bet is to expect more adjustment and 'balancing', given the effort that has been put into the system already it seemed an interesting exercise to undertake. I'm not taking a judgement position. Each of us, probably in each play session, will have different levels of...

    Exploration Travel effort within the galaxy

    In an effort to understand how existing space travel mechanics will 'feel' when our playground expands, I did some rough calculations. The ARK Starmap lists distances in AU, so the first factoid required was the SC value of 1 astronomical unit. For that, I reached out to the humble fountain of...

    [Video] Star Citizen news and funding hits $275M

    Glorious Leader is clearly overtasked with life ;) Edit: and what qualifies as a 'mining mission'?

    April flair, more helmets!

    I like how the aesthetic of the eyes + nasal armor creates a clear aiming point. Especially with the psychological understanding that people who cover their faces with armor are sending the non-verbal message that they cannot be trusted and probably deserve a bullet to the brain. Sometimes...

    Coronavirus COVID-19 Thread

    I apologize if this has been posted already.. the pages on this thread are stacking faster than my willingness to read them Whatever issues with Microsoft and Bill Gates aside, this is where he has focused a tremendous amount of his life's work - Bill Gates @ TED View...

    Which one of us did this? lmao

    Yes. Same gun used in the CIWS used for ship anti-missile defense. The unit mounted over the bridge of the USS Coral Sea could be *felt* down to the hangar deck. @Talonsbane - I kept a copy of this above my desk (minus the skull, that might be a later addition) wherever I was stationed. It...

    My Experience with Odyssey Interstellar

    Filthy affiliate representing! BTW, when this is over, there is still a RL beer in the offering. OP - Welcome! It should go without saying, but there are more orgs like that, and you are not the only one to walk out of such a place. Montoya and crew run a tight ship.. maybe a loose ship...
