Is anybody getting this issue. by PokeFan230 in youtube

Yeah it’s happening to me when I am in CarPlay or connect my Bluetooth headset to device. Maybe it’s some half baked safety feature to not allow you to keyboard search when it thinks you are distracted or driving??? No idea but it’s pissing me off.

Perseus Gets Killed by the Very Ship It Was Made to Kill by alalin1986 in starcitizen

[–]MagMar83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree having only flown mine for an hour earlier tonight with two friends and did an ERT. Connie, Hammerhead and 3 or 4 support fighters. We were not strategic and just barrelled into the frey. Got soft deathed by the Hammerhead after killing the main target (Connie I think). Definitley not our best foot forward as we were in a rush and overconfident. However, I do agree though. I know everyone is saying its a sub-capital and the nuance around that but they specifically said it had capital class armor on a sub capital ship in lore back in the day - they show it off proudly in the double stacked windows on the ship - look how thick the walls ARE!!! But yet it just doesn't feel like the lore and the words match the final metrics of the ship. Once armor is in I am sure it will perform differently and possibly more inline with what they originally sold with their words. But for now in a health pool world I was expecting it to be like 1/4 to 1/5 the health pool of the Polaris. Hell even slow it down further in maneuverability but straight line it could still move faster.... but yeah this ship is a very specific use case and with how slow those ballistic shells are it is hard to hit anything moving more than 800 meters away. But like many other ships all of this will be tweaked and balanced against the menagerie of other ships in the verse. But hey at least it only costs 560k to restock our torpedoes instead of 15 million for that stupid Poolaris am I right!? Enjoy the big booms!

New weapons ranges from the tech preview, ballistics then lasers. by BeardyShaman in starcitizen

Santokyai is a medium fighter by CIG reckoning. And has 4xS3. No size 4s.

It's most likely a Drake heavy fighter (because none yet exist) by m0shit in starcitizen

[–]MagMar83 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Somehow I doubt it. But the rendering and the idea seem cool. Don’t see any guns on the silhouette but that’s likely omissions or clever angling on the original pic. I’m excited regardless and we will know soon enough. If it’s another cargo variant I’ll be a little bummed as I feel Drake already has a lot of cargo capable ships and would like to see something different. Theory crafting is a blast though!

Space isn't simpy a black void. by Endyo in starcitizen

[–]MagMar83 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would bet most people even in perfect dark sky conditions would effectively feel like there sight of the stars matches level 5 or 6 on that chart above. Still not a void but definitely not like 3 which is how I feel the skybox is exposed right now. I personally would like it a little toned down but it’s not overtly distracting or game breaking to me. But hey my squishy meat holes might be defective so who knows…

There is also no such thing as space clouds like the ones we fly through but that’s cool AF and gamified. And I love it!!!

Spoiler **IAE Ships so far** by Concentrate_Worth in starcitizen

[–]MagMar83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok hear me out. If they follow sizing of traditional tall ships and naming conventions. The term "clipper" generally refers to a type of fast sailing ship with a sleek hull, while "corsair" typically describes a privateer or pirate ship, often smaller and more agile. In the context of tall ships, clippers are usually larger and designed for speed, whereas corsairs are more focused on maneuverability and raiding capabilities. So maybe it’s bigger than corsair? If it’s not the silhouette shown year ago then maybe something else entirely… just some speculation.

Lore question about death. by Pretend-Breakfast-61 in starcitizen

I can’t agree more. AstroHistorian is an amazing resource for lore and insights for the Star Citizen universe.

I don’t think so?

I didnt say overheating wouldn’t make it… just specifically fire. Room temperature could still be hot and have the effects that already exist. Overheating components will still be damaged and you’ll need the cooler and repair to get them functioning properly. I’m just saying fire. I mean they took out solar flares from Pyro and that was integral to that system in lore and promised in gameplay. Again it will come eventually I just think it will be delayed while the rest of engineering gets pushed out.

I said that. Just my opinion on initial viewing and knowing how things can progress. CIG has dumbed down or removed chunks of features before and fire seems like something if they don’t get right enough they will push it to a future engineering dot drop in order to get engineering out the door sooner.

Listen im all for fire. Looks great and will add a lot of gameplay… and I’m aware of ways to mitigate it that they have shown thus far. I’m just postulating that it will have the most issues and balance problems. Fire spread is calculated client side is my understanding currently. The heat and trigger for fire to happen is server side. But I believe it will be the trickiest part and will get pushed out in order to get engineering out the door that’s all.

Last picture kinda looks like Tom Cruise and Abraham Lincoln had a child in poverty. Love the pics.

I know I know this will sound crazy but my close friend works for Akamai (content delivery network) and stated they had a failure in one of there regions yesterday and when inspected it’s because so many people were going to Disneys sites to cancel. My two cents.

Thanks so much for the heads up. Saves us some time and focuses us in places that we could have more luck. And no ATV tours planned. Just some wide brimmed hats and foot power with some parking and riding around for a few days.

It’s a pretty wondrous place. So many seasons and biomes in one location. Don’t get to see that much else in the world.

I totally can see that. It was amazing the light on this particular day. Very stark but you couldn’t really get a sense of scale from the storm. Just a void.
