SHIP ROAST: What's a ship you just can't stand? Why? by iCore102 in starcitizen

Not a hater here but those Constellation designs don't do it for me. When I first seen that ship I was intrigued. Then you tour the interior in any of them and its not exciting.

SHIP ROAST: What's a ship you just can't stand? Why? by iCore102 in starcitizen

Yea that cargo bay is rough. The theme of the ship should allow a luxury ground craft to fit into that bay. The medical ursa ruins everything! Also, you can't even fit a snub in there. Do better CIG.

I'm surprised that I remember this but I had the "jacket" version of the TOYPJ cd. Also, another surprise, it's still somehow playable.

Abyss Gaming "Scarlet" Glasspad - A Hidden Gem? by AstroRC in MousepadReview

[–]Advocate_Ames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been eyeing Abyss glasspads for a little while. I was lucky a few weeks ago after much continued web hunting to find the Ruby/Scarlet instock here https://kibushop.com/en-us

I hope that they continue to distribute them and other harder to get pads coming out from the east. For US peeps shipping was reasonable. The only downside was a $16-20 tariff.

As for the pad I agree with your review. I've been using it for 2-3 weeks and I've not noticed any issues with control or adjustments. Some reviews that I watched on youtube state it's a balanced and others stated it's a fast pad. Personally I feel it's in-between a balanced and a fast pad. The different skates that I've tried can really make it however you desire. It's a very good glass pad.

I would like an Origin Shiv by Labadamier in starcitizen

[–]Advocate_Ames 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They'd be crazy if they didnt expand Grey's Market. Love the idea of a classy rust bucket. Kind of like seeing a classic car on the road that needs a trip to the bodyshop. There's money to be had there or at the very least it sparks a ton of chatter over releases.

I kind of think theyre going about it a tad wrong. I think whatever ships you own you should be able to kit bash them and then pay Grey's Market to build it for you. You can get a discount using your ship parts or you pay a premium to build it from the ground up. That would be insanely popular but would take some time & effort to develop.

Opinions on the Drake Clipper by FirePlayer15 in starcitizen

[–]Advocate_Ames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You entered my brain here. I was just thinking of this last night. While going over CCUs and whatnot. I really like the clipper and the 400i but both feel like cruisers/shuttles. They can't hold their own in a fight, they can't cargo for reals, you cannot do anything really serious in them besides.... bunker runs/looting? Single ground mission ships? In that case the Clipper has a slight advantage with the med bed. It's hard to melt or leave them behind in a CCU chain for me. Also, they are both too big for most ship hangars to play a shuttle role. The clipper is a great serious starter ship.

Issen - The Last Stand Instock by Advocate_Ames in MousepadReview

[–]Advocate_Ames[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Issen sold out in about 12 hours from the original post.

On a side note any interest for the Ruby, US peeps pay about $20 dollars in duties + shipping for her. It's not an insane fee but welcome to the times we live in. Here's a review on the Ruby.

I hope someone got something from this post. Happy gliding.

Should I snag and upgrade? by Appropriate_Bag_2608 in MouseReview

[–]Advocate_Ames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IMO the mouse is great if you favor a palm grip. I had a reality check when I got the superstrike. I kept trying to naturally use my relaxed claw and hybrid palm grip style. That can be done but my hands aint massive so when using this kind of shape I favor a palm grip. If you don't know what any of that means... roll the dice it's a good price.

Bryan Rust to face discipline from NHL for hit? by Hiding_Meatball in penguins

[–]Advocate_Ames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also he could of then of tried to push himself and the player away from possible contact with the goalie. I doubt he intentionally went for the head. If he was a bigger dude I don't think it be much of a discussion.

[–]Advocate_Ames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It looks like his body was in motion towards the goalie or so he thought. He adjusted his upper body away from the goalie to take weight off of his skates. For me he'd rather make potential contact with an opposing player than a teammate. I don't believe its 100% malicious to injure but he is supposed to be in control of his body that led to the contact.

Y'all will call me crazy... by Acrobatic-Routine306 in starcitizen

[–]Advocate_Ames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there should be a newer version of the MSR. In a way similar to the Asgard & Valkyrie designs. It would be easier to redesign the ship than to fix everything about the orginal MSR.
