    My prediction for the Ship Show Down

    Montoya and I are both 1/1, but you have a perfect score.

    My prediction for the Ship Show Down

    Well our imperious leader has his bracket busted in round 1 game 1. Looks like my bracket gets busted at the end of today.

    What are your predictions for Citizencon 2022?

    Same old, same old. Promises of great new things coming, and nothing finished or delivered.

    WTB Razor CCU and Vanguard BUKs

    Last I knew @DirectorGunner has some BUKs in buyback.

    Anvil Liberator

    It isn't so much a ground vehicle transport as it is a general transport. It is what my better half and I intend to use to move our base of operations and to enable longer distant bounties with our Hawks. My point is, that it may handle your use case, but that isn't the design purpose of the...

    Anvil Liberator

    It is designed with two XS pads, one XXS pad and two medium ground vehicle pads. The front pad is both shorter and narrower. I'm not saying fitting more craft is impossible, but the Liberator is designed for no more than 3 transported pilots, (and other passengers) regardless of how many craft...

    Anvil Liberator

    For the sake of argument, I am not including space bikes as "craft." The Liberator carries 2 fighters (XS Pads), 1 Snub (XXS pad), and 2 "medium" ground vehicles. The Liberator is not set up to carry 15 craft, much less 15 pilots, in fact no player ship (so far) is designed to carry 15 craft...

    Anvil Liberator

    The UK pressed a pair of RO-RO ships into service as makeshift carriers when Hermes got damaged during the Falkland Islands War.

    Anvil Liberator

    I think beds are over hyped. Unless they seriously change how distance travel works, the limiting factor is, highly likely, fuel range not duration. The troop transports don't have beds for the passengers. The Genesis Starliner images have airliner seats for the majority of the passengers. I...

    X52 Pro no longer working since Windows 11 upgrade

    My better halve's X52 Pro set worked quite well before the move. Unfortunately, since the set is in storage about 2000 miles away for a little longer, I can't test them at the moment, but they worked just fine under Windows 11.

    What's better?

    Like I said, Auroras are ablative armor. View: https://youtu.be/ThoSrupfwYM?t=602

    New ground vehicle on the way (Anvil Centurion)

    In a space game where the smallest ground vehicle we have is about the size of an M1 tank, I can't really get excited about another ground vehicle. Are we playing Star Citizen or Ogre?

    What's better?

    If you hull strip the ship, you still have the components.

    What's better?

    You need both. The Auroras are ablative armor for the Hull-E.

    Alpha 3.17.2 released to Wave 1 PTU

    I haven't seen it this bad in a year and a half, if not longer.

    Alpha 3.17.2 released to Wave 1 PTU

    I had decent frame rates in 3.17 and for the little I played in 3.17.1. But apparently they broke that and I am at unplayable framerates in the PTU. Yuck.

    New Star Citizen Scorpius trailer

    Arrow vs. Scorpius should be close. Gladius vs. Scorpius with the current meta, Gladius. Sabre or Hornet vs. Scorpius with the current meta, I give it to the flight over the pair.
