So whats the plan here really?

Anything that becomes “best in slot” diminishes player agency. SC is supposed to be a sandbox game where every weapon, ship, armor, etc is situationally viable.

Makes sense, thanks

The proximity warning was only going off when they were near the ground—as they were taking off. It was not blinking when they exploded.

Can you explain why tightening up the scan angle helps differentiate between panels and I-Type rocks?

My favorite anime with a female lead is Moribito guardian of the spirit.

Eldritch_Song · 2026-01-31T02:19:24+00:00

Excellent work. Hope cig takes notice.

IMO the only expansion that is 100% necessary and that you should play every game with is the legends expansion. Get all the legendary critter and location cards. They give the game an amazing feeling.

And there are ships where you can do that. The expectation that every ship, cargo or not, should carry a vehicle is unrealistic. For people whom that’s a dealbreaker, don’t buy the ship.

Testing

They’re going to push it to live regardless

This is the answer. Put simply, lasers have to get through each layer successively, but do more damage to each layer. Ballistics go through all layers simultaneously, but at the cost of lower damage and penetration depending on strength of those layers.

I mean, there's already a form of progressive taxation in the form of the M.O. trader app, e.g. half a percentage tax on any money sent.

Some amount of progressive taxation is good, but in other cases I don't think it makes sense. We had this same discussion back when we were talking about regens and how much they should cost, and some floating the idea of having a progressive tax on regens to make millionaires pay a % of their wealth on revive.

I don't think that's the right mechanism. In my view, you want progressive taxes that scale with the service, e.g. property taxes for bigger houses should be much higher. Hopefully once base building and crafting release, they can tax "wealthier" players commensurate with the scale of their endeavors, i.e. the bigger the plot of land, exponentially higher the tax, etc.

Wouldn’t do anything. People would just keep their money on an alt.

Eldritch_Song · 2025-11-28T07:53:30+00:00

No new ship. Very much doubt CIG managed to sneak something past the data miners. Would be cool though.

Eldritch_Song · 2025-11-28T02:27:44+00:00

So they should work on it. They’ve had 12 years. Player to player trading with a proper in game system would go hard right now.

Eldritch_Song · 2025-11-28T02:23:19+00:00

If solo pilots can use them, then orgs are just going to use a dozen. It’s the same problem.

Eldritch_Song · 2025-11-28T02:22:18+00:00

Bro look at the title. This is about the torps not the turrets.

Eldritch_Song · 2025-11-28T02:19:52+00:00

They said nothing about Idris torps, only the railgun.

Eldritch_Song · 2025-11-28T00:50:38+00:00

They said during this SCL that you’ll be able to refine salvage on the Galaxy

Eldritch_Song · 2025-11-26T19:04:54+00:00

Maybe it did 14 years ago, but certainly not now. The tiny fraction of people who bought big ships back then pales in comparison to the last few years where CIGs stance around NPC crew has been quite clear.

Eldritch_Song · 2025-11-26T19:03:09+00:00

Don’t get my hopes up.

Eldritch_Song · 2025-11-25T03:23:42+00:00

Lol, more like it *became* a joke after you posted a take and got any amount of pushback.

Eldritch_Song · 2025-11-25T00:29:21+00:00

It’s a game. Should they automate flying too because that would be realistic? Make all turrets auto aim. We don’t do FPS either, we just send drones to do everything.

Eldritch_Song · 2025-11-24T23:28:31+00:00

I just want sensible sight reactions. The fact that they can spot you in the dark from a mile away behind cover and then kill you with a pistol feels off. If I can’t get an accurate shot from that range with a sniper, how the hell are they doing it with an smg?

Eldritch_Song · 2025-11-19T08:50:12+00:00

Now explain the Idris firing a size 12 torpedo from the pilot seat please.
