    Armistice zones in SC

    yeah that's certainly true. If you're caught with your pants down on the john, and someone blows up your ship, well...that'll teach ya to play the game in that condition. My advice is, don't play SC if you have the runs. Really. It will cost you T.P., and it'll also likely cost you UEC...

    Armistice zones in SC

    I actually like the fact that they're not 100% safe, but as it stands now they turn out to be 0% safe, and put you at a distinct disadvantage that you wouldn't have anywhere else. If they're temporary then that's fine with me too. If they end up keeping them then I think they need to make...

    Video: Top 5 reasons they call Star Citizen a scam

    @Montoya, one of the things I really like most about your channel is that its about Star Citizen, but not about Star Citizen game play. It's about controversy, issues, and celebrating accomplishments. You do it pretty well. Thanks. For my part, I have no issues with the length of time it is...

    Armistice zones in SC

    Not sure if this is intentional or not, but just be aware for now. Scenario: You land at an outpost which has an armistice zone around it. You're there to trade, so you make your purchase and exit the building. Now, anyone hovering just outside the armistice zone knows your ship is full of...

    Would you pay more for TEST Products in SC

    A lot of the conversation here has turned to real world transactions and buying decisions with real world business. I don't think that's the model we're gong to be working with here. I think it's going to be simply the idea of helping other org mates get by. It doesn't even matter to me if...

    Please don't like my thread-campaign

    There are 16,000 + posts in this thread, how is someone supposed to ruin anyone else's chances by making sure that everything is liked? It feels like the job interview game. You go to 100 interviews, just to get experience doing interviews and get over the jitters. Then some jerk, usually...

    Me v the Flat Earth society

    Enjoy! That sounds like fun, except for the plane ride there. Walk around the passenger cabin every hour or so, and bring a very long, very good book.

    What Smell?

    Are you sure about that shit? You took a lot of shit, but I didn't take shit. I keep thinking, it's a shitty job, someone has to do it. Sure as shit, not me though. How much that shit go for? You know, it might not be shit, what if it's tampons n shit. ... oh, wait a sec ... I was...

    My Poor Freelancer

    Heh. Your HUD shows your ship had no serious damage, until your HUD is blanked out by the explosion. This is kind of longer than I wanted but I think it unravels your mystery . I had troubles sleeping so I watched the video again, and went through it almost frame by frame. I think, that...

    My Poor Freelancer

    Wow? That was neither, rubber banding or being too close to Port Olisar. Im pretty sure I've been even closer. Except that your freelancer demonstrated a little of the quantum mastic tape at the beginning of the ascent, everything looked normal until you blew up. It looks like you hit...

    3.0 Darkness in general

    I don't think that's a lighting problem. I think people aren't sure of the perspective here. You can expect good to poor illumination by a 1500 watt flood light here on earth, for about 180 feet (say, 60 meters), beyond that it becomes like like lighting a match in your back yard very...

    Idiot testing Lesson 1

    At 2501 meters, I think he was too far away to hit someone on the pads. Don't even think at that distance, someone looking right at him might not have even been able to see he was firing. Some things like that are weird in SC.

    3.0 Darkness in general

    I just want to point out, if you hit something on your way down in darkness, you are making far too shallow an approach. It's a common mistake, one that I've made on occasion too. It means you're thinking two-dimensionally, in a 3 dimensional game. You want your approach to a facility...

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

    That is actually something, if you are using the wrong launcher, it will not download. You might get this exact symptom since the PTU is disabled.

    3.0 Darkness in general

    I don't think there is much wrong with the lighting model in SC, other than it should be more stark on bodies without a thick atmosphere to reflect and scatter light. Space is more than just dark like we experience it on earth, outside at night. We have a thick blanket of atmosphere that can...

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

    3 processes in the launcher is normal. One of them controls the game, one controls your ID, and the other controls downloads I THINK. They're separate threads in the same program.

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

    The launcher screen you posted initially indicates that it's trying to download the files, but not getting a response from the server. It also sounds like you're having the same problem on 2 PC's. There's nothing special about the download. As long as you have the right launcher, it should be...
