    The Return to the Good Star Wars

    Without a doubt that's Hera and Chopper we see there towards the beginning of the trailer, but most important of all: THRAWN!!! :love:

    SC and your thoughts on grouping and interacting with other players

    The 'right' group size, IMO, is 2-4. More than that and it just gets too cumbersome to get everyone grouped up, in the same server, at the same location, too much chatter, yadda yadda. But even if it's just two people the experience is orders of magnitude more interesting than solo with...

    Poll: Worth being an Avocado?

    Alright, well thanks for all the opinions! I've gone ahead an pulled the trigger; I feel I won't have any problem following the rules so have very little to loose. I'll just keep doing what I generally do, i.e. play around with emergent gameplay and report on bugs as I come across them, and see...

    what's the status on 0USD ccus?

    How well did you do? I've got my still-unapplied STV-BMM chain down to $215. I'm just waiting to see if any $5 warbond CCUs pop up during IAE that might get me even lower, but then I'll probably apply it at after IAE regardless.

    Poll: Worth being an Avocado?

    So, I got an Evocati invite today which is pretty cool and as I'm ALWAYS happy to test out bugs and try to break games I think I'm gonna go for it, but figured it at least warranted asking: Other than needing to keep lips sealed for NDA reasons, are there any DOWNSIDES to joining the Mean Green...

    what's the status on 0USD ccus?

    I think as long as it's in your hangar you're ok, but if you melt it, then it will no longer be buy-backable. If it's critical, why not go ahead and apply your chain at least that far to really 'lock it in?'

    My new fleet so far

    Absolutely! And. . . we ended up needing to do a bit of that as the NPC corpses kept despawning on us from time to time. Player corpses stuck around longer, and fortunately, we had a Carrack on site for quick respawning/corpse manufacturing! :D

    The Death of Star Wars and the Death of Good and Evil

    BOOO!!! . . . But I still think Rogue One was excellent! Whatever happened to Gareth Edwards anyway?

    My new fleet so far

    My favorite was right after the tractor beams came out. It was right around IAE so we did our own Macy's Day Parade with assorted vehicles and hoisting a bunch of corpses in the air with the new tractors as our 'balloons!' Great times!

    My new fleet so far

    Well that makes reasonable sense, but then I'll instead ask where'd the Vanguard go? Guess you still have the harb loaner for the Polaris for now. I'll tell you though, I've been soloing the crap out of the carrack recently. Pack in some vehicles, a pisces, and one or two Furies for the...

    My new fleet so far

    Wait, where'd the Redeemer go? That absence surprises me. I also see the addition of the Defender. That's a ship I keep wanting to love, on paper, but every time I fly it it just never seems to speak to me :/

    Question about ship packs

    FWIW, I have both a Carrack and Phoenix, and previously only ever had one Ursa. I guess it's the one that comes with the Carrack but then the 'loaner' for the Lynx didn't grant a second one. Now that the Lynx has release, I have both the Lynx (ostensibly as it comes with the Phoenix) AND an...

    Starfield - Discussion Thread

    Alright, well now that it's been a day since I first tossed in this grenade, I'll wade back in. Here's some of the 'key takeaways' of wise thoughts that probably best sum up the general Testi-take on Starfield: Probably going to be sorely disappointed on this one; I feel MOST single-player...

    Starfield - Discussion Thread

    View: https://youtu.be/uMOPoAq5vIA Being single player I'm getting much more of a 'Witcher-in-Space' vibe than Star Citizen competition, but sure looks great and I am excited for it. what do you guys think?

    The Ignoble Death of Indiana Jones

    On a possibly related note, the other day we had family movie night and watched that new Peter Pan and Wendy movie. It was just awful, in literally every way; I'm pretty sure even my kids didn't like it. So tonight we started watching Hook, and holy cow I'd forgotten how GREAT that movie is...

    Does CIG need to bring in a publisher? (video)

    As with many or even MOST professions in the modern world, I see publishers as middle-man conveyor belt jobs that have no method for actually ADDING VALUE to a product; they just complicate the process and siphon off money to do so. Stick to a process which maximizes the value-added steps instead.

    The Ignoble Death of Indiana Jones

    Wasn't she also assistant to Spielberg on the original Indiana Jones films? I wonder how their relationship is?

    CCU'd to an A1 bomber...

    Get Smart was the best! I especially love the Sunbeam Tiger he drove around. . . :D

    is the hornet wildfire worth it?

    Yeah, I agree, not worth it over an regular hornet and at the almost comparable price point I STRONGLY prefer the SuperHornet for it's added versatility with the second seat and pre-loaded turrets.

    Quick question about buybacks.

    I'm pretty sure they've said that the current store/model is only valid for Alpha development, and I wouldn't expect/assume ANY of it will remain available/valid as soon as we move into Beta. On the other hand, CIG has always been pretty good about communicating when they're going to make a...
