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

I find the whole walking / running movement daft.

Its not just the nodding dog action, its also the strange way you side step and swagger when turning on the spot.

It seems they wanted to make the FPS view a bit different, more realistic, that's commendable but there is a reason why FPS is usually smooth straight line movement, its not for lack of imagination, its so that people don't throw up after an hour or so of your view moving about in a repetitive pattern. you don't get that when you walk in real life because your eye's compensate automatically, they are fixed to a point while your body bobs and swaggers.

TBH i didn't even notice the bobbing if i don't look for it on purpose.
 
I'd love to try the alpha out, but I cannot get into a game at all. I've read some people saying you need to install it onto an SSD to stop the kick errors. Is there anything to this as I don't want to have to download the whole thing again unless it's really necessary.

Move the folder, and change the shortcut. Job done.

BTW i have it on HDD, and usually don't need to try it more than 2-3 times to get in.

I've not heard this
but you should be able to copy the files over if you have an ssd.
I just copied from one location to another
 
Ah cool, I didn't know whether it would get upset because I tend to install my games to another drive and keep the C drive (SSD) just for the OS. Will give it a go later.
 
Garfo it isn't your PC, likely server side and number of players in an instance related.

I was getting around 30fps and it didn't really matter what graphics settings I used - low / high it would stay the same.

I would suggest getting your graphics and fps running right within the hangar module for now as that will give you a good basis for when they sort out the slow-down issue properly in multiplayer instances.

Link to boredgamer's configuration guide below for those interested, he has also put an explanation for most of the settings so you can decide if you need them or not.

I'd probably wait for a run down on the forums. I've not managed to watch all 3 hours so far, but have watched a fair bit. They've shown some ships in new detail, some of the capital ships, they're pretty incredible. They've shown a live section of space station (like port olisar) to a space station in a planets orbit and then fly down to the planet and land at a base, the vastness of the planet was quite amazing and the atmospheric effects seem pretty realistic.

They've shown some of the mo-cap stuff from the actors doing squadron 42 and a few interviews.

Chris played live PTU 2.0 on a public server, everything that goes wrong for us went wrong for him including CTD. Lol. He shouted his password live on air by mistake when the screen was black.

It was a good stream though, worth a re-watch on Twitch :)
