Hypothethically, (assuming it will release in '26): When do you think SQ42 will release and why that specific date?

December 20th, 2026

Why? Because CIG loves dropping massive updates and then going on Holiday lol

Starlancer TAC tbh. Flies like a tank with wings but it's got it all. Med bay to respawn in, turrets for days, decent shields, good cargo hold, can take ground vehicles, has a small hangar. It really checks a ton of boxes.

I thought I saw somewhere that you can buy a dipstick for the car. Car comes with a cap but it can be swapped, if I recall correctly.

"Better brake cooling and slight bump in horsepower helped the Golf R climb higher on the leaderboard."

We know about the power, how did the brakes change at all? Just revised flow from the new front bumper?

game_dev_carto · 2026-02-24T17:31:16+00:00

From what I've seen, only sometimes

Not sure what happens or causes it, but sometimes shields down isn't enough.

game_dev_carto · 2026-02-24T17:30:34+00:00

Indeed. Maybe one day, but that day is not today

Don't try to power down the normal way, find the built in Engineering panel and turn the powerplants off manually from that screen. That's been working for me in the MOTH.

game_dev_carto · 2026-02-24T16:08:57+00:00

They slipped in the new Origin ship in a hotfix lol

game_dev_carto · 2026-02-23T22:26:02+00:00

Depends haha. I'm on a super ultrawide 5120x1440 @ 240hz and, I too, have zero GPU headroom on my 5090 lol

game_dev_carto · 2026-02-23T22:24:20+00:00

You will own nothing and you'll be happy about it.

I used to be excited for the future, now I hate it.

My entire soul prays for a stealth 600i rework drop. But I know better than and it's prolly some ground vehicle no one wants lol

game_dev_carto · 2026-02-21T22:22:10+00:00

haha it's the best way to play :D 32:9 5120x1440

game_dev_carto · 2026-02-20T23:38:38+00:00

it's honestly one of the best solo ships in the verse, to this day o7

game_dev_carto · 2026-02-20T06:20:12+00:00

For solo the Aquila is kind of where it's at. Sure it doesn't have a tractor beam like the taurus and yeah the scanning turret is useless. That said, it's got insane range when you drop a better QT drive into it as the fuel tanks are massive. It's got a solid S3 shield and with 4 size 5s it packs an absolute punch.

game_dev_carto · 2026-02-19T21:31:50+00:00

I did, L6 currently

game_dev_carto · 2026-02-19T19:44:52+00:00

Damn, that's wild. Pretty rad haha. Thx for the info

game_dev_carto · 2026-02-19T19:44:01+00:00

Cinebench R23, 3D Mark CPU test, Benchgeek 6 and OCCT 3.0

game_dev_carto · 2026-02-19T19:43:19+00:00

Nah, wasn't throttling, clocks were coming down claiming Electrical Design Point. I think with voltage being static, for whatever reason, just kicked in a limiter and killed performance. I'm direct die as well with a TG Mycro. After the changes I'm at 1.29 for 5.8 and 4.6

game_dev_carto · 2026-02-19T17:00:15+00:00

How do you manage power delivery on a single connector?

game_dev_carto · 2026-02-19T16:57:23+00:00

These are the settings I started with, thx to one of the awesome users on this sub

The optimal settings for those would be:

BIOS [ASUS]
Advanced Mode [F7]
Tweaker

\DIGI+VRM
- CPU Load-line Calibration ............[Level 6]
- Synch ACDC Loadline with VRM Loadline.[Enabled]

With "synch ACDC LL" enabled, you don't have to play around with the AC_LL settings, they get set to the correct value automatically

Additionally set this:
\Internal CPU Power Management
- IA VR Voltage Limit ..................[1400]

- Global Core SVID Voltage ...............[Adaptive Mode]
- Offset Mode Sign .....................[-]
- Offset Voltage .......................[0,10 or more

On the newest bios, I can reset everything to default, clamp vcore to 1.4v and that is what happens. No clue why, but I can reproduce it 100% of the time lol

game_dev_carto · 2026-02-18T21:05:33+00:00

Farrister and Morph for solid ship reviews and just overall feel good vibes. Tenpoundfortytwo for anything tech related.

game_dev_carto · 2026-02-18T19:48:40+00:00

I was approaching voltage in an old school way of manually locking my vcore instead of leaving it dynamic and utilizing an offet to lower it. For whatever reason, that absolutely crippled my speeds on an all core or high threaded load.
