CIG creating the assets doesn't change the fact that governments across the globe are putting pressure on legislation for microtransactions and crypto. Unlike Ubisoft, CIG doesn't have the "F U money" to get a bunch of lawyers in a room and grease the wheels in the name of share holder profits...

I almost see that as the Second Lifers who desperately want CIG to allow user driven content that is tradable and sellable in real life currency. I just don't see it. With everything they have to worry about ... legal issues surrounding ownership and regulation for those kinds of things...

At it's core, NFTs are an admirable addition. Having actual ownership of something you bought digitally is great. My problem is ... you know DAYUMMMM well that's not why these companies want to do it. This is their way of turning microtransactions into macrotransactions. "But .... but...

Perhaps they are preparing us for the idea that a large group of Tevarin found a new solar system at the edges of the galaxy and have actually repopulated. Perhaps they aren't as endangered as we see them and a third war is inevitable. A fight to retake home?

My understanding was that the "existential crisis" was always more mental. The race essentially "gave up" after defeat and became more nomadic in nature. The Tevarin that are left are simply spread out throughout the galaxy, thus rarer to find. Sounds like an amazing exploration mission to...

Sounds like they might be modifying past lore to change the direction of the story they want to tell in the future. I want more alien interaction so I see this as a positive.

Coordinated boots on the ground gameplay could be SOOOO good in this game if they can get the framerates for server/client stable enough. I almost would prefer some kind of automatic restricted access area for ships during bases defenses ... just so we could have some EPIC ground battles...

Adding ship names to every ship would be a single drop in the bucket compared to all the other bandwidth woes of the game. I think every ship should have the ability. I mean ... it literally makes sense that you could name a ship you own. We use to call my mom's Caprice Classic with a red...

From my experience ... the "RPish" groups who take things seriously and want to learn proficiency tend to be extremely formidable. Top notch communication and knowing your role goes alongggg way.

I think a lot of TESTies plan to be part of coordinated groups ... some of it happens on Discord now. The reason you don't see a lot of it now IMHO is because we're still in Alpha and so much of the mechanics are incomplete or subject to change. The more persistent and consequencial the...

I've always honestly enjoyed the Aurora. It's sort of our meme ... but I genuinely enjoy the ship and find myself using it from time to time. Doesn't look like a jet or airplane ... the strut work in the cockpit has FUNCTIONAL language design ... has the basics. It's the Hughes Heli of the...

I've always preferred ships that can be solo'ed while bringing maybe a friend or two. Upgraded my Sabre to the MSR and grabbed the Gladius to replace it. Upgraded my DUR to a Corsair because I think it will play well with my MSR and Herald for Hacking/Smuggle play. Plus I love a little...

You can tell they've grown, evolved, and found their groove on ship design. I'm just not sure they have a static definition of gold standard. So who knows how many more times ships will need touched up in the future. And the more ships they add, the more time reworks are obviously going to...

The Ody is more survival gameplay. The Carrack is more PVP/E gameplay. Probably the best way to put it from a game perspective as it sits today. Both are long haul explorers but the gameplay mechanics can be entirely different because they do different things well. They actually work...

When you think about it ... really only the longer haul MISC ships have the jumbo jet cockpit view. The Reliant series view is basically entirely glass.

I got a nice FPS bump just by bumping everything to High Quality I could in the Nvidia Control Panel before this came out. This seemed to have further increased performance as well, but not as much as unloading more work unto my GPU. 5800x and a RTX 2060 ... average around 60 fps and see bumps...

People so desperately want to buy an "I win" ship ... There are no "best ships" in this game. It's all based on preference and the gameplay you seek. Want to long distance explore and be able to push back potential hostile forces as you expand your influence? Use a Carrack. Want to long...

The irony perhaps ... Kotaku no longer exists when Star Citizen is "released". I could see it happening. Those sites bleed money these days.

The real progress is going from "Flight Ready" to "Gameplay Ready".
