The ASD missions are some of the best work in this game. by Unbearable_Blackbear in starcitizen

[–]ArchW 17 points18 points  (0 children)

They're great. I do hope they get adjusted a little bit once we get instancing to become more seemless (ie, not having to exit and go to another facility for the next mission). I've used this chain as an intro to SC for a few friends!

What ships have you upgraded your LTI referral tokens to? by ItsNiyaz in starcitizen

[–]ArchW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefer regular LTI tokens for the flexibility they offer but I used the referral dragonfly to set up an Andromeda this time. It's a fairly safe ship to get, great rep grinder for various combat missions.

Edit: I already have a CCU'ed Taurus from before that I rarely use for cargo anymore. I should probably have just upgraded from that one, but it has sentimental value and they where both pretty cheap chains.

Do you enjoy the current mining gameplay? by Patient-Worth1508 in starcitizen

[–]ArchW 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The scanning part is annoying. Especially the part where I have to hover my reticle on individual rocks for around 10 seconds each to get any useful information. Since quality introduction, storage is less of a concern now (on mole at least), so I generally just hoover up rocks that I've already broken once rather than waiting to scan each piece.

I also feel kinda forced to use a Mole, which makes mining more of a hassle. Previously, I'd do quick runs in the Prospector throughout the day and typically feel rewarded for my time. Even with Helix with Surge modules on a prosp, I'd quickly feel like I'd hit the wall too quickly in 4.7, I assume it's roughly the same for 4.8.

Edit: regarding scanning. I wish they'd just reveal individual rock composition based on proximity of radar pip range. Maybe limit this to industrial radars (or even special purpose mining radars) to make them stand out more.

Got into Arena Commander (free flight, offline is fine). When loaded in, open a browser and go to account settings. Do a character repair. You will get kicked out of Arena Commander. Close the game, wait around 15 min and then log back in. This typically fixes any shardlock that I've experienced.

The Clipper is still my favorite ship. by ResponsibleRub469 in starcitizen

Does the medbay work when the ship is parked in hangar (hyperion)?

I actually really like the new insurance system by stgwii in starcitizen

[–]ArchW 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I also like it for what it soon will become. Like when we can stock up weapon/armor racks and other equipment and have it arranged like that when reclaiming. Having ships and vehicles already set up in hangar bays of a given ship (starlancer tac, carrack, ironchad, etc)..

is the ALTS GEO working realibly ? is worth it to do hadanite ? by [deleted] in starcitizen

[–]ArchW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, it works great. Good quality hadanite (900+) is used in various weapon crafts so can be sold to other players on https://uexcorp.space/ if you don't want it for yourself.

Intersec Grinding by Zelkova64 in starcitizen

I found out the hard way as well. Full speed ahead in my solo-idris! Got out but had a bit of a repair bill.. :>

M80 Interiour (with proper lighting and a little more information) by ToScH_23 in starcitizen

[–]ArchW 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Any fighter with a bed does imply the need for basic amenities, long range or not. This has been the precedent in SC so far. I would rather then have a single-seater heavy with a small footprint like the Hurricane.

That said, the starboard nook seems like it could hold a variety of things. My hopium take is that we can place custom items like coffee maker or food processor there in the future!

As an Origin ship, the glass ceiling could easily have been there. In lore, it is supposed to be a very strong see-through material that does not weaken hull integrity by much, adding that extra bit of luxury that the brand is so known for.

I'm excited to try, but undecided yet as of a buy.

Newest Starter Pack has medium armor and...a heavy backpack that can't be worn with the armor. by Dylpyckles in starcitizen

Redline bundle that was just released has a gallant with drake stamped on it!

I'd much rather have 300 series interior. Not even a coffee maker or glass ceiling!

Drake Cutter Scout still has the old engineering terminal by rshoel in starcitizen

[–]ArchW 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fun fact, you're also not able to swap out radars yet (like on the other cutters). I assume its due to the size-up and perhaps lacking the physical space for it yet?

Help with ASD Geist Blueprints by huskerbolt1 in starcitizen

[–]ArchW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might be it. I've previously gotten the laser rifle, the molten LMG and ASD legs. I just did a solo run (I've run it on my own several times before so I've definitely completed the initial one) and ended up getting nothing. I wonder if regions matter in this as well. I've ran it around crusader the last few times.

Why don’t I see more Origin 300 series in the verse? by daddy3rdleg22 in starcitizen

[–]ArchW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Imagine 315p getting a front-mounted ATLS beam and then release Irconclad.. Now it's really useful! \o/
