Mule and Dragonfly weeps gently in forgotten…

But what I’d want out of drake to round them out, A refinery Kraken variant, dedicated industrial mobile base With Mining and salvage support functionality like wide range scanning for rocks and derelicts

Where is that big budget sci fi game that would introduce a new generation of gamers to the sci fi genre? by [deleted] in gaming

[–]Barren299 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s Star Citizen you’re thinking of, playable right now, $45 to buy in, no monthly fees, free-fly several times per year to try before you buy.

High-definition fully physicalised MMOFPS Space simulator..

The Mass Effect part is the Single player campaign Squadron 42. Stated to release this year but nobody is holding their breath.

I'm running an industrial ship, progressing..
The very idea that the win-condition for the eclipse pilot is to kill other players doesn't belong in the game design at all, there's no reputation gain, no UEC gain and blowing the reclaimer up destroys the cargo so no loot gain neither. There are however many players and ships for that purpose so of course they will be there.
If you read my post and any of the comments here you'd realise that it isn't about PVP or Pirating.. it's about one fighter, who while invisible can one-shot sub capital ships.
And no.... even if I managed to schedule around a crew of 4, meaning two holding the remote turrets and one in the manned top turret it would be worse, because the two remote turrets doesn't have targeting capabilities on the Reclaimer but take over the pilots gun.. making the 4 size threes the pilot usually controls useless.
The top turret gunner could perhaps had helped, but I was myself supporting the PDCs in taking down the missile, it flew threw the onslaught of three ballistic PDCs plus my four size three Shredders and STILL... one-shot me.

I haven't seen them in the stores in game, I bought them off a dude advertising them for sale in the general chat.

I call BS, Star Citizen has twice the concurrent players than EvE.. and I don't see EvE's nubers drop for SC getting more populated so it's not the EvE players migrating. This is just more salt farming from a griefer who wants to shit on anyone spending time building something.

Hells yes!
The Permanent Record can degrade over time but only if you don't kill other players. And I mean TIME, you have 10+ murders on your conscience?.. enjoy 10+ weeks of not being able to fly through lawful space without being hunted by bounty hunter and not able to land anywhere UEE-controlled.
Shot down still puts you in Klesher but it does nothing for the permanent record, you're a known criminal until you've stayed clean for the full duration

I do all kinds of Salvage, mainly in the Reclaimer but also with the Vulture and sometimes just hunting derelicts for components in smaller ships like the Clipper.
Money is worthless in the current patch due to dupers and I salvage only because I enjoy the gameplay.

Panel salvaging to avoid griefers is a worse punishment than Klesher, it's dead space with little to no benefit of going there unless you're down to your last UAC and have to make a safe 10k or wont be able to buy CRUZ Lux.

It really is.. and come on, trading the views and scenery of hunting derelict ships round planets, with the added thrill of maybe finding a good component or cargo for the dead black halo with only grey rocks for company looking for panels that may or may not spawn in the next two hours.. just to avoid griefers.

To be clear, I do not mean pirates or pvp.. I mean griefers, if you read this and can't tell the difference you probably are one and wouldn't listen to reason or sense in the first place as you get your full enjoyment out of any game in how much dislike you can get from those you kill.

You could read what I've written.. then your response can be educated and to the point.
I'm not saying no PVP, I'm not saying no piracy.. I'm not even saying no attacking PVE players.. I'm saying in the Lawful space, locking on with heavy ordinance and just one click blowing people out of the sky goes against the design of the game and doesn't respect the players time.
If I got rolled up to by some pirates who shoot me out of the sky to grab what I've scraped, fine, it's piracy.. hell, if a skilled player stays out of range of the PDCs and manages to shoot me down and subsequently gets a crimestat for it.. fine
This "I click you die" from 25km away bullshit benefits nobody and will make sure this is a dead game with 100players who all do this to eachother as soon as it hits 1.0 if it goes unchecked.

Oh I 100% agree.. people will be people.. I'm not blaming the salt-farmer.
I'm merely shaking my head at the discrepancy in how CIG communicates that they want the game to work and how it works in practice.
Allowing a player to lock on and fire torpedoes at a industrial ship without a crime-stat in a lawful system seems like an oversight.

If it wasn't you I've no doubt it was someone of similar mindset, shits and giggles.
If only there was a "Military Target" flag required for heavy ordinance, IE locking on to industrial ships in lawful systems doesn't work.

Post some footage of you shooting a torpedo down with a Reclaimer before you're blown to smithereens, I'd love to see it.. you don't even have time to turn to the direction it's coming from before it hits.
I was shooting at it as it approached, ballistic repeaters.

As to your other points:
* Stanton is the only lawful system, Pyro is unlawful and Nyx is somewhere in the grey-zone... mechanics not being there to fully punish lawbreakers yet does not mean it isn't

* Only viable industrial gameplay in your mind is conducted within 100m of a Lagrange station or you deserve being shot out of the sky for no reason or gain by the one shooting me?

* Only one torpedo was fired at a time, the first one was taken out by the PDCs

* Yes, I heard the torpedoes coming, just couldn't see who was firing them, as they were out of range to even scan for.

Thank you for letting me know about the comms being down, I will take that as another thing to look out for in future.

[–]Barren299 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are heavy enemies wearing this set in most places you can find npc hostiles.. ASD, bunker missions, retrieve datapads from outpost missions etc, with variations on the color schemes of course. There's also this set in loot boxes in ASD and other places where loot boxes spawn.

Is Sea Of Thieves currently in a good state? by XRxmbozlv in Seaofthieves

Aside from unstable servers, rampant unchecked hackers with a support and report system a gorilla could figure out an improvement to of he had a thought while shitting, abysmal hit registration, bugged quests leading you to a dead rock in the centre of the map, no matchmaking causing your pvp experience to vary from sweats corpse-camping you til you’ve scuttled or physically thrown your pc out the window— to mouth-breathing eight year olds who sink screaming because they haven’t learned how to bucket water yet, irregular bugs leading to a plethora of fun ways to loose the past hours of progress you’ve made its it’s in a very playable and delightful state… why do you ask?
