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

low res pulled from a gif but i thought it was a cool little capture... Looks like it was captures via AMD's quick gif capture



Edit: 65 FPS... no problem, GPU is the Bottleneck./ Good balancing across 16 threads.

So much going on in that image and 65fps, we truly are in the golden age... /s

Thought you CPU did 5.05ghz :confused:

It does, i've turned it down again until i get a new cooler, its only on a 120mm AIO, needs a bit more really to keep it as cool as i would like it.
 
Why do space games overuse the nebula effect. Inky black and stars should be 90% of what you see.

Tbh SC is mostly empty black. But the reason is for a game it's visually boring 90% time. Currently the gas clouds are plicated around stations and that's it.

rule of cool

same as sound in space - they have to hand wave some explanation like “your helmet is using sensors to convert what’s happening around you in space into sound for situational awareness”.

ultimately a space game where 99.9999% of all you see is empty black space and all you ever hear is the creak of your ship would be realistic, but only appeal to a very niche and dedicated audience.

I think it could be done really well with careful sound design. Ambient sounds of your ship, sensors, proximity voices for people nearby, radio chatter etc. Then ambient stuff being yanked away when depressurised for example. Don't let CIG know I said that, it would easily be another 5 years to implement
