    I can't seem to get any frame rate at all in 3.23

    Today's patch let the Direct X render engine get above 25 FPS, the Vulcan engine still hovers between 6 and 8. Live still performs better. The built in thermal monitoring says no issues. I'm keeping overhead low. :)

    It doesn't want to get above 8 on either render engine.

    The CPU is an i7. 1080p on the PTU higher on live.

    I can't seem to get any frame rate at all in 3.23

    Finally wave 4 got around to me. Unfortunately the only time I see, according to Nvidia's monitoring, double digit frame rate is on the loading screen. That is using either render engine option and lowering the screen resolution. It isn't the greatest gaming computer, it only has an Nvidia RTX...

    I found something besides Star Citizen to blow money on

    And now my Army experience comes out. LOL Does it come with a NOD? Does it work with napalm? It'd be good for clearing bunkers if it wasn't lit up like a christmas tree.

    Carrack Gold Pass

    Hollywood World War 2 not real World War 2. Star Wars and Battlestar Galactica appears to be the philosophy. TTK is very high for that though.

    Carrack Gold Pass

    They do sell the M35 with the turret ring surplus and you can buy the ring separately. While what you say makes sense from one perspective, unlike in Star Citizen a simple field modification to the M35 arms it with, most I've seen, up to five 50 cals. A quad (M45) AAA in the back plus the turret...

    Carrack Gold Pass

    IS the M-35 really the truck you want to use as an example? :) They have been equipped with turret rings and 50 cals since WWII. But in Viet Nam that wasn't enough so... View: https://youtu.be/ZXUkmUXvNls?si=xMUyeiwUxWKN09SP Note that one in five of Duce and a Halfs, and Five Tons had turret...

    Carrack Gold Pass

    Just the Tali to start. Vanguard will probably be shortly afterwards, since the modules are already in the build. (At least they told us the modules were seperate geometry from the rework videos.) AFAIK, they haven't even hinted they know what modules the Carrack will have as options, expect...

    Carrack Gold Pass

    To be fair the 8 size 4 guns and snub are enough to deal with the yacht if the crew is worth a damn. According to Erkul, the Carrack almost doubles the dps of the 600i. The Carrack's superior Armor also come into play in that matchup. But with these two ships why would you bother, neither is...

    Carrack Gold Pass

    If you're trying to fly the Carrack as a fighter, you're doing it wrong. The Carrack doesn't need pilot guns. The pilot should be spending his time maneuvering and running.

    Is Polaris Expected to Come during Invictus?

    IMHO once it's released, with the multicrew gameplay coming and being expanded upon, starting in 3.23, the desirability for the Polaris will go down. Hype is great, but once it is actually in game, warts and all, and limitations on running short handed becomes as painful as it appears CIG wants...

    Is Polaris Expected to Come during Invictus?

    Right. I'm not saying the ship is complete. Though I would hope it is complete by now, but that the bits and parts, the corridor pieces, the components, the doors, etc. should be done enough so that the props from the Bengal can be used for the Polaris, Galaxy, and Peersesus in the usual kit...

    Is Polaris Expected to Come during Invictus?

    My point, poorly expressed, is they should have most of the kit parts needed for the large RSI ships.

    Is Polaris Expected to Come during Invictus?

    Oh, I'm not saying that Stanton is complete, by any means. Pyro seems to have plenty of opportunity for fuel stops, like Stanton, making it viable for small craft, which it isn't supposed to have. It is fairly inhabited, which it isn't supposed to be.

    It's integral to SQ42.

    Is Polaris Expected to Come during Invictus?

    One would think most of those blocks come from the Bengal and possibly the Pegasus.

    Is Polaris Expected to Come during Invictus?

    That would be the Anvil Valkyrie Liberator. They are both Anvil. Otherwise, yes. It appears they have retconned a good deal about what they told us about Pyro. It is supposed to be mostly uninhabited/uninhabitable with no resources and a brutally dangerous star. A place that is inhabited only...
