    Citizen Con reveal

    Wow, great thoughts! I know the F8 is about as likely as me winning the jackpot on Powerball (huge lottery for those outside the US), but one can dream.... Honestly, I would love to see the some of the older announced ships, but honestly, unless they are behind, I fully expect them to release...

    Citizen Con reveal

    Any thoughts (or if I missed it, point me in the general direction) on what the CitizenCon ship concept reveal will be? The F8? The Carrack or Caterpillar as a flyable or at least a hanger viewable ship? The BMM? An announced release date for Squad 42?

    [ISSUE COUNCIL] Contribution thread

    I found an issue with the Vanguard Warden where you can enter the ship from the outside. Here is the issue council thread. If it's invalid (reported already), just mark it so. If it's a new issue, please look to confirm it...

    What is the best multi-crew ship in Star Citizen?

    It depends on how much crew and what you want to use it for. In game, right now, the best multi-crew for: You and a buddy? Freelancer You and 2-3 friends looking to do "whatever"? Connie (Andro or Aquila) You and 2-3 friends looking to play around in a big ship and not accomplish much...

    Official Stance on Evocati Posts

    In my opinion, which counts for absolutely nothing, neither should be linked, posted, etc. Leaked information about upcoming POTENTIAL game changes do nothing but upset people. They can't play to see how those changes might really impact things. They can't follow the changes nearly as easily...

    Pimped your spaceship? Lets share information!

    Ok, did some playing around last night. Now, I am mostly a non-gimbal person, and even when I do have gimbals available, I usually lock them in the forward position. Super Hornet Initial setup - 3 227 Panthers, 2 117 Badgers. Pips did not line up the same, it also looked like there was a...

    What fleet would you want?

    Lexicon, I think my wording may have been confusing. I meant no ships where you would realistically want 10 or more players run it effectively, or 6 or more players to just run it. That's why I was saying no Idris, Javelin, etc. Larger ships that can be run on skeleton crews with AI filling...

    What fleet would you want?

    Starting ships (tier 1 and 2) I would choose something in the 300 lineup. I would probably skip the 325 because it's really nothing more than a light fighter. I would lean towards something with a bit more utility, maybe the 315 as it can explore as well as provide you the ability to fight...

    What fleet would you want?

    Because Sam is bored, I thought I would put up a question for discussion here. What fleet do would you want at launch, if you could have any fleet you wanted? Now, don't say "all the ships" or "a million Auroras". I want people to pick and choose, put some thought into it. Make some hard...

    My 9 year old daughter made me proud yesterday

    I love Good Eats. The show is just fantastic for explaining the how and why behind cooking. I also agree with many of the posters above. Encourage her, don't force her. Give her cookbooks, but explain that cooking is an art and that substitutions, changes, and modifications can make things...

    RSI Ship Vote #3 - Bomber of the Year (Retaliator Vs. Gladiator)

    Some of the modules may redeem the Retaliator, but as it stands now, it doesn't. If you are looking for a smuggler, you are correct, the DUR or the Connie will be better. The 'Tali is a little faster, but not by that much. As for bombing...you don't send in one ship with 6 torpedos for a...

    [PU 2.5.0 HANGAR] Does anybody know, where the item port for the Starfarer is?

    How does one get the Jumbo R&Y hangar? Does it require a starfarer, etc? Just curious because I was hoping I could get my Carrack in the R&Y, but I don't have the jumbo...

    RSI Ship Vote #3 - Bomber of the Year (Retaliator Vs. Gladiator)

    I've flown the 'Tali and while I absolutely love the look of it and the way it flies, it's just too much of a multi-crew ship for me. Honestly, I would rather have a Connie than a 'Tali. I fell in love with the looks of the 'Tali early. I am and have always been a fan of military planes...

    F8 Lightning is going into concept sale!

    Not sure where you got this information, but for at least the Super Hornet, it is not correct. The nose is a S3 mount. You can put a 227 Panther on it, a gimbaled 117, or a set of dual gimbaled S1s The wing mounts are S3. You can put a gimbaled S2 on them if you want The missile rack is the...

    F8 Lightning is going into concept sale!

    If they sell it, it's because they need more money. Yes, they got a cash infusion recently with the explorer pack, but with everything they have going on, (rent, salary, computers, etc), they probably need more cash to finish the game. If they need the cash, they will sell it. If not, they...

    F8 Lightning is going into concept sale!

    It depends on the role/crew requirements. There might be a second seat on that thing based on the video, but unsure at the moment. Let's see, there appear to be 6 forward facing guns, a 2 gun turret, 2 Torpedos, and 2 missile racks. While it's a lot of guns, it's not the 4 S3s that the Sabre...

    Super Hornet or Freelancer?

    Why do you say this? I think combat ships are going to be expensive, not cheap. Remember, the economy is not like EVE...all player produced. We can influence the market, but we don't make the market ourselves. Also, if I remember correctly, people will have to WORK to be able to run combat...

    RSI accounts are being hacked, ships stolen - use the two-step-authentification!

    Great Public Service Announcement! This type of attack never does anyone (the game, the players, the community) any good.

    Let's talk about the 300-series' pending rework.

    I agree Sam and it was the point I was trying to make. You only get expensive stuff if you pay for it. You only get quality if you pay for it. The old adage of car repairs are "you can have it repaired A) Cheap, B) Fast, C) Correct....choose two" also applies to buying a vehicle. The more...

    Let's talk about the 300-series' pending rework.

    actually, power isn't different between the 250 and 350. It's mostly suspension and axle capability. That's why it is usually only a few hundred over the cost of a 250. I am ok with the insides so long as they fix the clipping issues. If I want Luxury, I will wrap my HOTAS controls with...
