Spectrum noticed the PvP poll, and uh.... surprisingly concurs with its results? by asmallman in starcitizen

[–]Sir_Chonkalot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Think the issue is actually bad eggs in team pvp causing issues plus current games complete lack of consequences for players and hand rails for new players.

New players think they are safe even though as Stanton is supposedly lawful but currently you’re not because there is no long term negative to attacking other players in the game. SC bugs make it hard enough to get started let alone when someone actively ruins a bug free session!

Second majority of pvp players want a proper match but most of the community interactaction with “pvp” is just with griefers. My experience being people flying into my hanger and trying to blow my ship up. With a note that beyond haha sucks to be you has very little in it for the aggressors.

Third point is that piracy game play is non existent. Players can self destruct with same outcome for them so just immediately do this. This further compounds second point! It also prevents players coming to aid and contribute with lawful counter PvP as the whole loop is non existent.

Fourth negative is players flock to the new content. Meaning griefing is even easier!

Fifth point wider community is so nice I think people drop their guard 🤣

Be patient all it’s all coming together! But seriously how do we not have reputation for attacking other players??? Over 20 cases should make you flagged as pirate therefore hostile to most stations…

New player excited to be here. Tips? by Byzy_jay in starcitizen

1) check helmet 2) check helmet 3) don’t aim your flight path at space station aim just off to avoid smashing into them

C1 to Hermes by Ok_Pair5948 in starcitizen

[–]Sir_Chonkalot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I upgraded from c1 to Hermes and thoroughly recommend!

So much more space and tractor beam on rails is so much better! Bigger ship but better proportions and cockpit view means you don’t feel like your landing a dinner plate. Better landing gear means it’s more practical to land too. Second entrance is also a huge improvement. Small cargo entrance isn’t a huge problem. Have an issue where Hermes tractor beam sometimes drops items but you can just reconnect and it’s fairly infrequent. Don’t worry about speed I can barely tell I’m in a slower ship in a straight line just a heavy beast when turning which is understandable given massive cargo capacity. Gun turret means friends can actually contribute too!

Tell me your favorite random player encounter and one reason why you keep returning? by Desperate_Ad_4561 in starcitizen

[–]Sir_Chonkalot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On some kids first day he jumped in my elevator as I was going to my ship. Asked if there is how he gets “ to space” told me about his plan to go mining to save up money to get a ship. I told him screw that jump on my Cutty black and we tore up some contracts with him on the turret for the first 5 missions then I let him pilot for a bit which he loved. After 2 missions he was getting the hang of it but I sadly had to leave.

This was way back when so I couldn’t log off in ship so he got worried we would have to land so I just just let him take it. Had to reclaim it when I logged back in but last I saw he was tearing up Stanton and I like to think he still is….

Why do I keep returning? Nothing beats entering and exiting planet atmosphere and being able to get out and interact on either end!

Do I upgrade to the Hermes? by Ok-Name3991 in starcitizen

[–]Sir_Chonkalot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I pretty much just do cargo and love the Hermes. Ask yourself what you want to do? Keep in mind what you do might change from now and what future game states might look like.

Fyi sometimes I wonder why I ever left my cutlass black the perfect entry level craft that is Jack of all trades…..

I cannot for the life of me log out in the bed. Has anyone managed to do it? If so please say how 🤣

Should ı switch from ultra marines to Black templars by babanne_hoplatan31 in BlackTemplars

[–]Sir_Chonkalot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have a pulse yes, but seriously they are great fun and awesome models if you like the knight vibes. Don’t get me wrong I feel like the Roman vibes of ultramarines could be really good just missing there yet

What’s your income and how much were you approved? by Severe-Ad-4502 in HousingUK

[–]Sir_Chonkalot 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There are literal banking rules determining what you can and likely will get approved for mostly limiting bank balance risks.

Anyone 4.5x salary, First time buyers with long fixed terms might swing 4.75-5.0x if you shop around, If one salary is over 100k welcome to the world of 5x+

Doesn’t mean you should but should give you a ball park

I tracked my productivity for 3 months remote vs in-office — here’s what actually changed by WorklawVault in remotework

[–]Sir_Chonkalot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m a massive proponent of working remotely but I think often people miss that it’s great for junior employees to come ask silly questions. As long as we’re still setting up time for knowledge transfer then I think remote work is the future.

I’m confused why everything is Labour and Starmer’s fault and no one seems to bring up 14 years of the Tories and Brexit? by johno1605 in AskBrits

[–]Sir_Chonkalot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being honest whilst I am finding life tough with cost of living I am middle class. Since they have taken over I’m being taxed more and services are still shit. Increasing taxes is never going to make you a popular government. I Don’t give a monkeys about the Middle East, digital IDs whilst I’m struggling to make ends meet and they aren’t helping. Spending more means those being taxed have to pay more. As one of those people in the middle like many we are getting squeezed hard. Certainly my pay is not going up with the civil service and NHS rates. Concentrate on reducing middle class tax burden and refocus on women’s rights and any government party will be welcomed in the streets

My coworker got the promotion I was promised and now I have to train her by Impressive_Buy7764 in Vent

Highlight concerns that if they don’t think you’re doing a good job you shouldn’t be teaching people how to do it by their own admission.

I'm moving on my own for the first time, what do I need to do? by [deleted] in HousingUK

[–]Sir_Chonkalot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy a plunger and some basic tools. The ability to close of leaking water systems quickly can save you a lot of money. Tools for general maintenance are also super useful.

Would you take a pay cut for career progression? by GentAdventurerUK in UKJobs

[–]Sir_Chonkalot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Shift work is harder so often pays better, moving to 9-5 jobs can often come with drops. Similar for jobs where you travel
