******Official Star Citizen / Squadron 42 Thread******

A mate pointed this out. Do have to love their consistency with the faction appearances...

It's not that they do wipes on a whim, it's that it's often necessary due to the nature of the update - and wipes aren't that regular anyway.
In some cases, it happens partly due to a lot of people cash farming via an exploit or a new game mechanic that they usually make extra lucrative to get more people 'testing' it.

Live events kind of need to happen, since it's really about testing mechanics and getting things to work.

Say there were no more wipes and everything persisted from now into the eventual 1.0 release. Wouldn't you have a problem with all the current players having amassed damn near everything vs the new players that waited for release and have bugger all except their starter ship?

Honestly, I think you overthink a lot of this stuff and worry too much :)

Well said broski.
 
in which case wipe the bought ships as well, everyone can earn them in game and only give them out when the game launches

(I mean if it isn't a problem wiping your stuff then you support that as well right?

after all the ships are meant to be a thank you reward for backing the game not P2W buying ships ;). )

I've downloaded it to have a wander about later. Microtech, though really just the station is one of my favourite locations in any game, got a real atmosphere to it.

What do I win regarding the p2w on my polaris vs your starter ship mustang.
 
All the space stations have pads for if you're just in and out to quickly do something, on the Pyro Space Station's they are tucked away under the central hub.

But yes, spawning your ship on a pad that was easy and quick to get to and depart became a thing of the past with the loss of Port Olisar, it also holds a special place in our hearts, as with all of us of a certain vintage its where we spawned for the first time ever to look up and the massive gas giant looming over it.

First thing I thought was solo-ships major disadvantage but looks like they've considered that already which is good. Also adds another game loop for multi ship crews, and I guess addresses the 'issue?' with a single person flying a multi-crew ship.
So you could literally have dedicated people running around with a spanner or whatever the tool is/are.

Does anyone know of a list of what's been added to SC monthly or 6 monthly. I'm curious to look at the history of updates

This is a spicey question :D There are things CIG have talked about for many years that aren't in yet, Engineering is actually one of those things, tho recently CIG have gotten a lot better with that and don't talk so much anymore about things that are years away, most of the stuff that was talked about at the end of 2024 for 2025 is in.

Nyx is coming for the IAE patch in November, Engineering is not far behind IMO.
