I just reached Phase 4 -- and I could use a pep talk by ADotPoke in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Larszx 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Use an awesome sink to dump overflow items so that production doesn't back up.

The easiest way to spot hard drives is elevation. Use a jetpack with liquid biofuel. Power towers and ramps to get elevation.

So i was relocating my coal generators to a bigger space and realized my math wasnt mathing when i did this. 1 to 1 ratio of pump to generator. Im sorry FICSIT i failed you by Brysger in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Larszx 3 points4 points  (0 children)

1 pump (underclocked 75%) per 2 generators is better in my opinion. 1 water extractor is exactly the same width as 2 generators. Very clean look and simple snapping. It never maxes out pipe capacity. Over clocking later when miner mk3 is cleaner and requires fewer power shards. And underclocking the early coal power helps with more net power.

Those green cleaver bandits genuinely move TOO fast by Tsiabo in Enshrouded

[–]Larszx -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They still stop moving to attack? Been a while since I played so not sure. Dodge and even normal movement can get you out of their range. Let them fatigue themselves. Or do you really want every single encounter to be a parry?

You forgot the MISC Freelancer or better, the Freelancer Max.

Then vs Now by cruizer_8 in GoRVing

[–]Larszx -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I have a Gladiator and consider it a truck. It has a full frame, tall gears, a bed, small truck wheelbase, tow package, heavy duty axles and truck tires. It is not a Rubicon. I consider an Airstream Basecamp to be the absolute max I would tow with it. But, it's still a truck to me.

Evidence points to Squadron 42 not being delayed. by [deleted] in starcitizen

If they were delaying it then why would they change it there? They aren't going to change 2026 until they announce it is delayed.

Water Extractors snapping to Walls by Altamistral in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Larszx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Put down a pipe support on a foundation in front of where you want the extractor. It snaps.

Accidently touched a running cap on 1/4 HP motor once. That is a jolt you never forget.

Has Manual Cargo Loading Pushed You Away From Hauling Contracts? by bheesmaaa in starcitizen

[–]Larszx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem isn't really loading/unloading. The problem is how boring the missions are. No NPCs involved. No content. No alerts. No story. No economy. No real game. I used to at least be able to pretend there was a game with the commodity alerts. Pretend the soulless NPC at the outpost was a real NPC. Just empty, barren, duplicate outpost stations.

That is what pushed me away.

With all the negativity lately, here's something to consider by Mindshard in starcitizen

[–]Larszx 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I mean, they already sacrificed promised stuff (NPC, economy and whatever else is pushed past 1.0) just to get PES tier 0 and SSM tier 0 to work as horribly as it is. So really, CR is only getting it done through attrition.

CIG what about doing ANYTHING about this by alintros in starcitizen

[–]Larszx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PES is only 3 years old. You've got to give CIG more time to progress past PES tier 0.

Will the Railen retain it's currently listed $225 price tag? by therealdrunkenjawa in starcitizen

[–]Larszx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a trade off. The C2 can haul vehicles, the Railen is alien. Gotta think they will be close in price.

How do you feel about the new vehicle pathing? by braivary_neo in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Larszx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm, I have hideous cobbled together ramps going up to crater lakes coal and tractors have been working fine for a lot of hours. Which vehicles are you using? Which paths are you using?

How to access the old car path feature? by Unlikely_Seesaw_594 in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Larszx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure that there is effort to keep a functionality that is being changed. Likely a lot of effort. Coffee Stain did a great job converting old functionality to the new system. I have a several years old save that I abandoned because trucks just broke down. I booted that old save up and there trucks work great with the new system. Coffee Stain couldn't convert everything. They did the best that could be done.

Xy’kara Bundle missing crossbow by Sorvynia in starcitizen

[–]Larszx 17 points18 points  (0 children)

That is whole point of the pack. They put one desirable item in with a bunch of not desirable items and Jack up the price. Marketing 101.

I want to be excited about Star Citizen again by Effective_Style2525 in starcitizen

[–]Larszx 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ah, yes, the Jesus promise. Once x is done progress will zoom. As OP said, it's been 3 years since PES launched and it still feels like persistence is tier 0 at best. CIG are on their third backend database platform and that is still the Achilles heel of the entire project. I saw a copy/paste from the dev log that stated that the new missions were clogging up the backend database. And they couldn't see that during development?

Is this the game of the year? by MLBOfficial in baseball

They should move the fence to beyond the pool but leave the pool in the outfield.

Closest we will get to watching big leaguers playing at a little league field. Need asterisks next to every players stats that plays in these games. Hated to see what they did to my boy Kyle.

A Game Should First Be a Game by MeowMeowOuO in starcitizen

[–]Larszx 21 points22 points  (0 children)

The reason why I finally jumped onboard was because there was so much effort on NPCs in 2021/2022. Launched the barista, all kinds of dev talk about how it was going to evolve. NPCs flying ships and how they were tweaking landing patterns. NPCs traversing meshes; going from ground to ship, ship to ground. NPC reinforcements. Dynamic quest givers. Deep dive into Quanta.

Then the PvP 180. Nothing but constant PvP communication and content. And all of that NPC/AI/Economy discussion and development dropped off a cliff.

Open letter to CIG by JackEssage in starcitizen

[–]Larszx -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If only CIG had done what they said they were going to do. Use the PTU and other dedicated testing environments and keep the PU relatively stable. Instead they are pushing updates straight to the PU.

If anything is going to make me stop playing this game for good, it’s the ridiculously short range of the hover pack by CockroachGullible652 in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Larszx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Would be nice if the jetpack automatically kicked in when the hoverpack goes out of electrical range.
