    Another one of those "You have 3 ships thread"

    I dunno why it's hard to name these sometimes. I think those 3 ships are solid. The SH has an extra seat if you need to taxi a friend around, the MSR can run cargo and we don't know what the data mining / smuggling mechanic will be like. Then finally, there's the Carrack, you need a ship to...

    Watching some SC streams kind of makes me sad

    Also keep in mind that they have stated that areas will be instanced out if needed. The fact is if you have a thousand people converge on PO, it would be a shit show. I get they can't get more than 50 people on a server w/o stability issues right now but I am confident that will change...

    Watching some SC streams kind of makes me sad

    You know, honestly I haven't given it much thought. I think that SC was originally conceived with a myriad of thoughts and ideas around how it would play etc. Part of the constant re-works and time delays I think were due to poor project management and massive scope creep. That being said, it...

    AMD Ryzen 3900x or Intel 9900ks ?

    Yeah for me it's really down to the performance / cost. If I can get an AMD chip that performs like an i9 at i7 prices, then it's a no-brainer to me.

    New PC Build - Soliciting Advice

    Oh I used to be exclusively AMD for the longest time then I found my self back on the Intel band-wagon. I read about the performance drops w/ AMD regarding 1080 resolution, what % impact are we talking like 8%, 15%? It's funny because I don't "need" a new machine right now. It's mostly a...

    New PC Build - Soliciting Advice

    I just looked at the benchmarks on the 2070 vs 2070S and it's approximately an 8% difference for $60.00. So I may dig around an see if I can find it for say $30-40 bucks. Nice, that makes sense. Sounds like a nice build, I'm supporting a family of 6 on just my income, so when I build a PC I...

    New PC Build - Soliciting Advice

    My first stab at a build, looked at CPU benchmarks vs the AMD and wound up at the 9700K, I need to really look at GPU benchmarks. I did load this one up w/ 32GB of RAM vs the current build. So I think I can get it down to 1600.00 if I half the RAM and nuke the SSD. The case is full price, it...

    New PC Build - Soliciting Advice

    Yeah there's no OCing going on with this rig. I'm too lazy "at home" to deal w/ maintaining a water-cooling system, so it's all fans. The CPU fan/heat sync was an after-market buy I can't remember what it was, I grabbed it after the fact from Micro-Center. Hmm you've got me wondering if...

    New PC Build - Soliciting Advice

    Hey Guys, I haven't built a PC in 2 years and I'm thinking I'm going to build a new machine in March-ish (bonus time) time-frame. This will be an all new PC build as the current machine is going to be used by my kids. I already know which case I want but I'd like to know what you all would...

    I figured but there's no harm in asking, worst case you'd have had something and I'd have missed out. :)

    SOLD OUT!! ARGO Mole LTI 220 dollars or 30% off any ship available to buy ect...

    Did you pick up any Pieces game packages with LTI and S42? Or was that excluded from the store credit you're trying to liquidate?

    Mining Feedback for 3.8.0

    Hey Everybody, I was looking at feedback related to mining in 3.8. I've left a little feedback, but there are also other posts that deserve up-votes. If you're interested in mining and have suggestions, I'd suggest you have a look at this spectrum post and up-vote your favorite suggestions or...

    The BBC piece "Click" focusing on Star Citizen

    Bah! Make a video so I can watch it and give you another lame / pointless comment and a thumbs up. Yeah the attack pieces are entertaining but it's nice to see somebody as big as BBC being real about the company.

    Holy mole-y - new info / video

    For now, we haven't been "encouraged" to test mining since 3.2 when it was introduced. It'll come back.

    Holy mole-y - new info / video

    I was about to say, you're in an org with a bunch of drunken miners, drunken marines, drunken pilots who all think they could teach Top Gun, drunken sca... you get the point. Anyway, get your Mole, I'm grabbing one too, and if you want I'll point your laser at any rocks that tickle your fancy...

    Holy mole-y - new info / video

    It's not a solo ship, this is strictly designed for cooperative mining and thrives in situations where a prospector or group of prospectors would struggle. It's essentially designed for the next level of rocks.

    Holy mole-y - new info / video

    Yep just watched it, guessing it'll go on sale when it's active in the patch, or when 3.8 hits the PU.

    TEST Christmas Party on New Babbage!

    The latest patch is almost as smooth as butter. They need to iron out some issues still here and there but it's not unplayable. SSOCS can definitely be felt in a lot of places, I can't wait to see what the next few iterations bring in regards to stability.
