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

I'm going to fill my hangar with years of subscriber flair until the servers crash.

It was getting busy during the server meshing tests on the trams

My advice to any org leader thinking of merging, just wait until CIG have matured the org system. Many promises have been made over the years around org management. For example they suggested orgs being able to negotiate contracts on behalf of members, that may mean you can "make a deal" with another org to share resources, get paid etc. That clan ID e.g. ADDERS etc will become more important as time goes on if it's part of friend or foe systems, but could give members a lot of options for their gameplay.

it's nothing like that at all. it's like saying you KS'd Forza then after years of waiting for it they announce they're doing full on water sims for when you're driving around Monaco or wherever.
and as far as i am concerned, it was always about a space combat simulator from word-one of the KS. a modern day WC, that's why i backed it.

It's massively bloated from what was originally promised, but a modern day WC is basically Squadron 42, Star Citizen is something else. That wasn't clear for a few years after KS though which is partly why they offered refunds etc.

I think they need to focus, which seems to finally be happening tbh.

There's missions featuring boats in Squadron 42 by the looks of it.

He'll just keep shooting you until you cave.

They did state aiming for an April release tbf not just Q2.

Well it is easter so miracles can happen I guess.

I'd be shocked if this is coming out Q2 though.

 

[Raumarik]

They have a deadline for may for invictus week

Good time to start praying then That seems incredibly ambitious but as I said to Humbug if they've got the S42 devs on it.. maybe with the extra people power they can pull it out of the hat.

 

[Raumarik]

Oh don't you start, Humbug never shuts up about HDR

 

[Raumarik]

all they need to do is add a slider that allows you to change the background darkness or colour when using mobiglass. Then the user can make it work in any environment.

 

[Raumarik]

Agree, I love it.

Also when switching flight modes using B, you can toggle between the various mini-modes using middle mouse button.

 

[Raumarik]

SCM scanner/weapons/missiles - combat
Nav (can't remember mini mode names) - not combat

I found it rather confusing tbh, I need a guide!

 

[Raumarik]

For years I haven't recommended spending more than the basic starter ship. You don't need to and in a way I regret going beyond that (I like to earn up in game).

 

[Raumarik]

Interestingly the reason I tend to avoid the really big ships is me thinking "will I ever actually be able to use this?".

If I can solo/duo a ship fine but others feel like a risky pick.

It's why I prefer the 600i over the Carrack, minimum crew feels more realistic in the 600i.

 

[Raumarik]

They're not on my cool list though

The Cutter is legit an amazing little ship, you should be ashamed of yourself

 

[Raumarik]

I need to see this cool list now..

 

[Raumarik]

Looking forward to seeing Vulkan implemented, this could be awesome

 

[Raumarik]

It's an excuse to get a weekend away, get drunk with randos and fart in my own room. As a married man of many years £240 is a price worth paying.

 

[Raumarik]

I'm likely going to focus on EPTU again once we get this bloomin box mission done and help anyone else needing those missions sorted!

It's too confusing to switch between when it's fundamental keybind changes, my old brain can't take it
