Yeah, honestly I'm all for it, but I too think the only thing I'll really miss is my Sentinel! Maybe will just need to pledge for one here at IAE. . .

Oh absolutely, but then again this has been an exciting draw for me all along for SC. Way back in 1999, you could hack Xwing Alliance Multiplayer to allow for one player to fly and one player to be in the turret of the Corellian ships, and although it kinda sucked, I thought that was just the...

Wait a minute. . . But I'm more of a BMW than a Merc guy, so I'm a little confused as to why you'd be worried about ME ending up with your car. . . :D

Naw, I remain steadfastly optimistic for the reasons I cited earlier. They're doing this intentionally but just for the short term so they can FORCE the playbase to focus on what they need us to do for them this patch: co-piloting, missile mode, and power balancing. If they left the Sentinel...

Which is why there are a very few dirtbikes that are two-wheel drive (and can drive the front wheel) but exactly zero road motorcycles that do!

While I too am disappointed in the current nerf, I wouldn't despair TOO much just yet. My guess is this partially over-nerfted intentionally for just this patch as a means of testing the new mechanics (sorta how you used to get interdicted EVERY SINGLE JUMP back when they were first testing...

I am most definitely not wrong, but we're closer in agreement than you might realize, as many of your points are very much valid, though for slightly different reasons: This is 100% correct, but balance (aka weight transfer) is still independent from which wheels are driven. It is instead a...

*SORT OF* This continues to be one of the most prevalent vehicle dynamics myths out there, so it's important to get the real facts straight. 4/AWD does NOT 'improve how a car handles' or 'cornering ability' or anything of that sort. What it DOES do is improve the grip available *WHEN...

In my mind this all boils down to one very important fact that you haven't yet mentioned. . . does the WRX have THREE pedals, or just two? The Merc is only a 2-pedal car, so if it's an apples-to-apples thing then I'd vote for the larger more powerful AMG. BUT even all that extra power and...

I absolutely LOVED Xenothreat and thought that was a really nice taste of what this game has to offer in the long run. But I also agree with the above that the emergent gameplay often offers some of the best experiences. My siblings and I were once all playing together and had to drive off...

For years I've said if you play the game for a week and still like it, the Titan is by far the best value starter ship, and I still stand by this. I also then standby the NEXT ship worth spending IRL$ on is a Cutlass, if you're still into the game after ~6months and are interested in dabbling in...

FWIW I've had a random Arrow FOREVER, at least two maybe three patches. I think it first showed up last November for the Expo maybe? I also have 2 Archimedes, but here I'm fairly certain the second one showed up shortly after I first dicked around with un/re-docking with my Phoenix (back...

Right, just this, but when I look down at the corner and lean forward to bring my view close to one of the cockpit MFDs to interact with it, it's tricky to hold my head still enough and then simultaneously use the mouse to click on anything on the MFD. I can do it, but it's hardly easy/natural...

Ok, so mine's here and so far working great! Only nitpick I have so far is I'm having trouble leaning in and holding things still enough to click the softbuttons on the MFDs. I can look at/read them pretty easily, but things are a bit sway-y when I try to click on anything.

I actually HAVE gameglass, but to be honest haven't found it that useful. Almost everything it can do in-game I just have mapped to hotas buttons, I haven't actually been able to make it do anything directly MFD related like I originally hopped (set weapons groups, request landing, drag the...

I was pretty intrigued by that video; anyone tried running 2x S5 distortion scatterguns like that along with the two stock gimballed omniskys on a Connie? Any good?

Hot Damn! This is EXACTLY what I've been hoping for, especially compared to TrackIR; I can't wait for mine to arrive on Friday!!! :D Thanks Raven!

Yep, sorta like that, but you're right in that the larger half of the battle is Windows. I currently use phone/tablet for this kinda stuff, but both are slower than desktop power and smaller than I'd like. Plus discord access would be nice and well that runs on the desktop too because headset...

Tired of alt-tabbing in/out of SC whenever I need to visit discord, browser, etc. I'd love to have like a tablet-sized touchscreen where I can access other windows while leaving SC up on the main screen. Haven't really been able to find the right product/way to do this yet though. Anyone out...

What makes you say this? Sure it has some flaws, but like I said I find it a fantastic daily driver; just the other day I did a mixed string of a box mission to Hurston, went down for a bunker mission, gave an uber ride back to PO, and then finished up with a bounty there before logging off...
