    Can you jack NPC starships........

    The vanguard was my spawned ship. The starfarer was the one the OP acquired. Doesn’t show up because it is not yours. Was unable to re-enter the ship as I could not lower the cargo door. Everything was locked and the pilots dead body kept me from using the switch

    Any idea if/when we will be able to get a Polaris corvette?

    When it is released, it will cost more than 750. You will probably be looking at 800-900 bucks once it is flight ready and no LTI unless you CCU it.

    Would you pay more for TEST Products in SC

    One thing I have found is that many times a company will issue two grades of a product. One is a "big box store" grade, and the other is a "high end retailer/wholesaler" that sells to the public and professionals. Sometimes that quality is very close, other times it is no where near the same...

    Can you jack NPC starships........

    What he forgot to mention is that we went out in one ship. Killed some of the pirates, but then I crashed to desktop. Hybus jumps in the pilot seat (vanguard) and kills the rest, but by that time, the ship won’t hold atmosphere. So he goes over to discuss playment, plus get some O2, then...

    so... same problem... i can't download 3.0

    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?

    Default Keybindings not working?

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

    Default Keybindings not working?

    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...

    About losing a real money purchased item without insurance

    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...

    Any idea if/when we will be able to get a Polaris corvette?

    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...

    Would you pay more for TEST Products in SC

    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...

    Would you pay more for TEST Products in SC

    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...

    Any idea if/when we will be able to get a Polaris corvette?

    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...

    Any idea if/when we will be able to get a Polaris corvette?

    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...

    Any idea if/when we will be able to get a Polaris corvette?

    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.

    Any idea if/when we will be able to get a Polaris corvette?

    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...

    Upcoming Windows patch expected to slow Intel CPUs

    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
