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...

Thanks for sharing! Ordered mine just the other day (love my TrackIR when I'm using it, but usually too lazy to take the time to strap the junk to my head, or the window behind me screws things up). Really hope I can get it set to work pretty consistently! Don't really plan to use it much for...

Ah thanks Shadow, this is a good thread! While you are absolutely right, I actually DO like playing in turrets, and I also see a future for them in the game. But yeah, buffing them a bit to make them more appealing I think is a great idea. What I like most about turrets is the social aspect of...

We're shifting from crypto to the 'bigger picture' again but I think that's OK. This is a fair observation and I'm actually quite interested in Ploeperpengel's German perspective (wegen der Flagge und Handle, vermuete ich dass du Deutscher bist, oder?) There are several interesting dynamics...

Interested, as long as 2 second pauses for drinks of beer are not frowned upon!

Ok, as a fellow Vanguard lover, I'll bite! Firstly, I know they said in the Scorp Q&A blades to slave the turret, blah blah blah, but I'm still expecting this to have some sort of compromises and the Vanguard to still keep some sort of upper hand in terms of pilot-controlled dogfighting...

So the issue with fusion is that the physics are a real bitch. Works great in the center of the sun because you have both high temperatures and HUGE pressures due to the gravitational field that something as massive as a star creates. But on earth. . . we can't really create pressures on the...

You and I are of like minds, fellow Tester! Disclosure: my brother is a nuclear engineer, so I'm both biased and know what I'm talking about. As far as disposal goes, the spent fuel itself is almost a non-issue at this point. Various types of breeder reactor designs exist to either not create...

I will also add that on the more budget end of the spectrum, I did REALLY like my X52 before I upgraded to the Virpil. I found its throttle shape much more comfortable than any of the TM stuff that I'd tried previously. Remember I have smaller hands, and both the T-Flight and 16000M grips were...

Lol, thanks for that Raven, just checked it out and pleasantly surprised to find out how close my current mappings are to his! One thing I don't see him using though is that you can set different ranges for the two throttle axes. I have them 0-100% when linked for MSFS, but then -100-100% with...

I'm going to go ahead and chime in here in favor of my Virpils also. Mind I upgraded from a Logitech X52 and thought that was actually a pretty darn good setup for the price. I haven't tried HOSAS yet but might down the road. Currently, I'm using the Constellation Alpha stick and the T50...

Yup exactly, was a warbond upgrade option IIRC, planning to leverage it to help me get up to a Polaris without throwing TOO much new $ at it!

I'm all for this approach. Let me ask you then though, what is it about the Crusader ships that make you like them enough to have them in your fleet?

And. . . it's now $500! Glad I still got that $20 Aquilla CCU for it! https://robertsspaceindustries.com/pledge/ships/merchantman/Merchantman#buying-options

As much as I want to like the Ares I'm having trouble getting over the glaring physics oversight. . . every time I look at it all I can do is envision trying to fire that off-set gun, going into a flat spin from the recoil, accidentally firing again in panic, and then blacking out from the...

Yeah I intentionally left roles a bit vague since I'm a jack-of-all-trades type guy; I kinda want to be able to dabble in whatever I feel like and not focusing on any specific specialized role. Xenothreat was by FAR the most fun I've had in the Verse, mostly because it involved a bit of...

Hey Testers, seeking a bit of open discussion and opinions here. I'm trying to plan out my ultimate Polaris upgrade path and well, I've bogged myself down as to which of the medium sized ships I want to keep in the fleet vs. which can be can be sacrificed for the Polaris. Here's my current...

I like to do all my fleet planning based on the CURRENT game state, plus maybe what I see in the roadmap for the near future, so from that perspective here's what I can share (as I too am looking at the forthcoming Redeemer drop). Make of this what you will: - Vanguard is currently my absolute...
