    CitizenCon Cancelled

    "Safety" and "Freedom" are seldom defined, so often misunderstood, and in truth rarely obtained by fiat. As a retired veteran, expat and professional motorcycle instructor, it is my opinion that "safety", especially the brand referred to as "Public Safety", is an illusion. Depending on your...

    CitizenCon Cancelled

    You get over this side, we'll bug the crap out of @Montoya and do a TEST barcitizen, west coast style.

    Initiating landing sequence @port TEST

    A proper landing (in, at, around) TEST means leaving the smoking hulk an Aurora in pieces, with a story that's fun to tell over alcohol. @marcsand2 and @IcaroSP will teach you how to do this the TEST way on the weekends ;)

    [Video] Prowler walkthrough

    I can't justify the cost.. having said that - THIS ship flies and fights like a heavy fighter. The damage output on target (read that: gimballed) is far beyond what a solo Vanguard pilot can muster, and the handling is smooth and accurate. Accelerations are decidedly slower than smaller...

    Looking for i7 6700, 6700k, 7700, 7700k - stateside (SOLVED)

    @DarthMunkee Good advice. Deal is complete and part shipped. I've used the i7-7700T in 5 different projects that didn't indicate overclocking, 3 of those having extremely low power requirements. It's a fine chip for it's generation, and right now this one is back in my main until the Ryzen...

    The practical use of Carrier birds.

    This is a question. I have an unfounded suspicion that 'Live Bounty Hunting' may become possible in many different ships, as the discriminating characteristic is a holding cell of some kind. We've seen several different varieties of cells now, from the built-in unit on the Hawk, the supposedly...

    Looking for i7 6700, 6700k, 7700, 7700k - stateside (SOLVED)

    Darj, have you come up with a solution for her as yet? I have two processors here, an i7-7700T and an i7-7700K. As I am looking to move to a Ryzen 9, either of these could be available now.

    The practical use of Carrier birds.

    Have to agree about Drake ships.. just can't get interested in stuff built to the lowest possible spec. In game terms I understand the concept - build utilitarian that can function on whatever components are at hand, especially away from population centers. It also makes pirates an easier...

    Kraken And Capital Ship Upkeep Costs

    Fixed it for ya.. Isn't it obvious why @Montoya welcomes anybody and everybody into Test? Org TAXES to pay for that Super Elite Fleet of Auroras..

    Kraken And Capital Ship Upkeep Costs

    Yes, CIG seem to understand that time is the real commodity of value. The prison loop and Tony Z's discussion of it make that abundantly clear. They have addressed the idea that capitol ships will take a lot of time to replace. How long is probably not known yet. As for costs.. Fuel...

    [Video] Inside Gaming takes another jab at Star Citizen

    Mad respect for your ability to sit through their crap boss. When this popped up I could not make it past the first 20 seconds. Absurd behavior as entertainment......

    Coronavirus COVID-19 Thread

    @Montoya this might deserve its own thread.. I did not find it mentioned elsewhere when searching. As gamers, one thing our group has available is processing power. So let's kick in some of that to fight this beast. These are two co-operative projects that have been researching the virus...

    Welcome @DevArchitect ! Your handle seems familiar to me, though I can't place why.

    Padawan Pilot

    The most likely reason is some level of desync between the clients and server. This manifests in lot of ways within the game, but is most obvious when shooting because of the short timeframes involved. i.e. the fact that the arrow was even in his airspace got to his client later than some of...

    Padawan Pilot

    It is possible to go through the entire customization process on the pledge store without spending anything to evaluate kit. The packages available are a mixed bag - generally better Grade B components but the weapons themselves often don't make sense and will probably still need changing. If...

    Stealth Recon

    @Shadow Reaper and @Phil What I am reading here is you two are actually discussing apples and oranges. Maybe its a terminology thing, so here's a couple of thoughts. *Stealth Recon* as Shadow is using it, means getting up close and personal. In MMO terms, this is your rogue, sneaking up for...

    Missile Update

    No.. the smaller it is, the higher its maneuverability and the shorter it's range. With the existing combination of warhead values and hit rates, the S1 might actually be doing more for you. It definitely gives you more chances to actually do damage. StarcitizenDB seems to be down so I am...

    I'm not a complete idiot, there are pieces missing.

    Welcome! 'Complete' is such a subjective concept in gaming.. and gamers. There are a few of us around.

    Exploration Travel effort within the galaxy

    Agreed. While the safe bet is to expect more adjustment and 'balancing', given the effort that has been put into the system already it seemed an interesting exercise to undertake. I'm not taking a judgement position. Each of us, probably in each play session, will have different levels of...
