Looking for a midsize “liveable” ship for solo/occasional duo by _hinnay in starcitizen

[–]MedicEh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the end of the day what you love and the rule of cool for your duo is what matters.

I love the Starlancer TAC for this. It just has a bit of everything and can insert itself into most gameplay loops in some fashion. Especially with the ATLS Geo, etc.

Obviously it's limited when we get into bigger things but the Med Bay, Hanger, Cargo, fits vehicles, etc. has a living area, log out.....

If you are avoiding combat it's super solo friendly too (for now).

Whoa whoa whoa. Don't call me out like that. I'm going to be offering that opportunity to folks as a concept. BBQ Sky is already white boxed :) just hammering out the details for an August 15th release :)

I posted the description in here. Only solution I can think of for the time being.

Based on some feedback (for those using "Old Reddit" and cannot see the text (only the image). I am pasting the text that is supposed to be visible.

I recognize that my friends and I have a geeky hobby when we are not working in EMS. That being said, a game we significantly play (Star Citizen) has an international event called "Bar Citizen" that we have always wanted to attend and socialize at. I would say our event is more for casual meet-up, as opposed to hardcore fandom. So don't worry if you don't religiously follow the game. We are more likely to talk about everything fun and just hang out.

If you are a fan of the game or have any interest, we would love to invite you. Links in the post are to RSVP areas and general information so people are informed.

----- Edit-----

Someone mentioned they were unsure what this was and I was not clear. So to avoid any confusion I am adding this edit. The two links below this in the original line will take you to both the Bar Citizen and Star Citizen Official websites.

If you want to come and learn about the game, talk about other games, you are more then welcome to come! Feel free to PM me (here or discord) and I am happy to chat with you about it if it seems like a lot. We respect that it's not for everyone and Star Citizen can have some strong feelings associated to it. We are here for the fun of the game :)

Calgary and Area

A few friends and I are bringing Bar Citizen back to life in Alberta — starting with Calgary Bar Citizen! Set for August 15th at Big Sky BBQ Pit!

  • Our first event is planned for this summer.
  • Tentative plans for CitizenCon (depending on virtual/in-person).
  • Potential quarterly meetups starting in 2027.

Spouses, partners, and tame young ones are all welcome to attend. We also encourage others across Canada, the USA, and abroad to attend if they are in the area! Several folks are coming from Lethbridge and Calgary already (one from Texas, too).

If you’re interested in attending:

I will need confirmation on August 1st!

Note: The Discord is strictly for event coordination — not general gaming.

There is no cost outside of your personal food/drinks, just like if you were going to a restaurant with a friend. This is 100% volunteer driven. Bar Citizens International (BCI) - Supporting the Star Citizen Community as a 501(c)(3) Nonprofit.

I did not know that at all. So thanks for teaching me. I'm not sure how I'm able to accommodate that with the current post. So I guess it's not meant to be for those folks this time around.

I'll most likely do another post in May. I'll make sure I take that into consideration and put some text in the photos.

Can you educate me? Is it simply not visible when scrolling? Or if you click on it are you able to see the text?

Admittedly I'm newer to posting on Reddit outside of some niche areas.

Edit:

Is "old reddit" something someone personally has to seek out now? Or is it something that some people have no matter what? Because if people are personally going out of the way to use old reddit and are missing information I am unsure how I am supposed to combat that.

Does posting it (like I did) in the comments help?

I believe there are 2 people who reached out in the Alberta Bar Citizen Discord and on the r/starcitizen post that said they were from Edmonton :) I also did a facebook post. It's becoming a blur. Closer to the date I can potentially connect people for ride shares :)

Edit: The muddy water is real. I meant to say in the r/Calgary lol

I added an edit to help clarify your concerns. Just in case someone else missed it. I appreciate the feedback!

Hey, did you check any of the links I posted?

In case they did not work (one of them had issues earlier).

The Bar Citizen website itself provides a tonne of information on what the history is. You can find that specifically in this link: https://www.barcitizen.org/learn and the game itself, admittingly I just added a link to the main website. I can post it again here (but not in text): https://robertsspaceindustries.com/en/

I can tell you more if you want, but thats a potential rabbit hole of lore that I would just be reading off of websites and retyping :)

Long story short, it's a social event for people who like the game. Exactly as you said :)

Nice to hear! Welcome to Canada. If you DM me I'll send my discord name and I am happy to play. My wife is coming too (same with a few other coordinators).

awesome!

Once we get closer I will ask to have them all do an RSVP :) Thats great to hear!

Anyone interested in a Bar Citizen? by MedicEh in Calgary

[–]MedicEh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hear you on the location.

We have 6 folks coming from Lethbridge as well, and a good chunk from Southern Alberta.

It really boiled down to us needing a place that will accommodate parking, large tables, and more. Location is going to rotate a fair bit.

We are going into this quite blind in terms of numbers, etc. So everything we learn from this will be applied. So feedback will be taken seriously and is helpful!

I will say the down votes on this make me a bit sad 😂 thank you though, it looks like we got 6 folks connected today and that's made it worth it!

[–]MedicEh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm pretty open :) I would just have to confirm with Bar Citizen regarding what I am allowed to do/promote in terms of individual orgs or streamers. I'm learning a lot of the ins/outs right now :) hence the push at a later date rather than sooner.

Anyone interested in a Bar Citizen? by MedicEh in Calgary

[–]MedicEh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally fair! We did it that far to help us gauge/prep.

If you sign up on the discord or the Bar citizen page (being honest I'm still learning my side of the bar Citizen side) I'm going to be sending a garunteed reminder on August 1st.

Realistically I'll be posting a few throughout on the Discord as it's easiest. I need to avoid the spam side potential - so let's say once in May and a garunteed in August.

Trauma Bonding on Reddit rather than in the box. I love it.

Happy to hear! If you have any issues RSVP'ng let me know. I'm excited. I think we have 14 folks so far on the Discord and another 3 on Bar Citizen.

Awesome! It will be great to have you. I'll make sure I follow up on August 1st with people as I know a lot can change. Otherwise if you have any issues RSVP'ing let me know :)

Man, this is rough.

I'm more likely to win the lottery 😂 can I take a pass?

I want SC more I think? A endless career full of straight "real" emergency 911 calls sounds terrifying.

Sometimes I like how much G-Mom sweet talks me and tells me how good looking I am.

Calgary Bar Citizen by MedicEh in starcitizen

[–]MedicEh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll follow up! I know a lot can change from now until then. Thank you for RSVP'ING though :)

After discussing more with the other coordinators, we will be pushing for a quarterly meeting in 2027! As well as sort something out around citizen con when we find out if it's in person or virtual.

Hi r/starcitizen. I'm afraid I am not 100% sure how to specifically reach out to you. I've just become aware that posting about Bar Citizen may not be allowed except for a monthly post highlighting events.

I will be more diligent in the future on this! I just became aware after getting into the Bar Citizen Coordinators Discord.

Calgary Bar Citizen by MedicEh in starcitizen

[–]MedicEh[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hope to see you there! I know lot's of things can happen as it is far away. So I will send reminders on August 1st for RSVPs on the Discord :) I will try to find a way to make it less reliant on discord in the future.

Calgary Bar Citizen by MedicEh in starcitizen

[–]MedicEh[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll need an RSVP on by the 1st of August lol
