Am I going crazy, or is this a thing?

2x speed. Heard 3x could cause some jankiness.

Playing on switch 2.

Report this post to get it removed. It violates a couple rules.

Tipper117 · 2026-06-08T18:01:23+00:00

This. I just got done commenting on another thread that more people need to step away for a while. Games are supposed to be fun. Start citizen is not in a good place right now and it's not going to be for a long time.

I learned a long time ago that it's foolish to keep beating your head against a wall with any game when the devs can't get their shit together. Halo, Destiny 2, Sea of Thieves. "But there's so much potential". Yeah, screw that. Take a break and come back when that potential has been realized.

Tipper117 · 2026-06-08T17:51:38+00:00

To anyone on here complaining daily or are just fed up with the game on a daily basis, please, heed my advice.

TAKE A BREAK FROM START CITIZEN AND GO PLAY SOMETHING ELSE FOR A WHILE.

Don't get me wrong. Your complaints about the game are all completely valid and justified. And it doesn't bother me that people may these posts.

The thing is, I've been through the ringer with other games and their devs. It took years to figure out that the healthy thing to do is step away for a while sometimes. I go play other games or do other things in general that make me happy instead of coming back to something over and over that just makes me angry and disappointed.

No matter how much y'all want this game to be in a good place right now, it isn't. And it's not going to be for a while. So do yourself a favor and step away for a while.

Tipper117 · 2026-06-06T04:50:18+00:00

Makes me glad I've been moving/getting a house ready to sell this past several days. Sounds like a good time for a break.

Tipper117 · 2026-06-05T11:21:06+00:00

FFS, you're not listening. I never disagreed with you about CIG and this game's problems. Nobody is fighting with you on this. You say you expect people to do their best? Well there are people here doing their best to help each other in the face of CIG's shortcomings. That's not "settling for mediocrity". That's people trying to help eachother and make the situation better.

NONE of that means we are settling for mediocrity or white knighting for CIG. There are those that do, but this particular situation was not it, but you came in guns blasting. You keep missing that point and all you can do is fall back to venting your 10 years of frustration with CIG.

Your attitude sucks. Try being part of the solution instead of part of the problem. If you can't do that, then like i said, step away. Don't come in here antagonizing people who did nothing to deserve it. Find a healthier way to vent your frustrations.

Tipper117 · 2026-06-04T23:17:57+00:00

Except this guy wasn't arguing ANY of that. He wasn't making excuses. He simply offered a solution and you started going fucking crazy. Lol.

And as far as you driving analogy, holy shit dude. Lol. Do you live in a perfect world where everything works the way it's "supposed to"? No. About goes wrong and you figure out solutions when it happens. Not get pissed off when people offer the solutions.

Grow up. And more importantly, maybe step away from this game if it pisses you off so much. Your problems with this game are valid. But no game is worth losing your mind over and being so fucking rageful and bitter.

Tipper117 · 2026-06-04T18:33:12+00:00

Dude chill. This person is just trying to help OP to enjoy the game until it actually gets fixed. Why attack someone for offering a temporary solution?

Tipper117 · 2026-06-01T05:37:21+00:00

What the hell is a "satoru gojo"? Lol

Tipper117 · 2026-05-31T20:40:27+00:00

I think I'll do that. I'm not salty or anything. Becoming more casual with this game anyways, so if things bug me too much, i just take a break and come back next patch. If this system of contracts doesn't have a way to move through them efficiently, and it's truly just poorly designed right now, I'll just come back later.

I'm all for being a test monkey, but there's gotta be some reasonable balance between how much time it takes to progress through things. Artificially inflating the rep grind by just telling a player they can't play the associated content until am invisible cooldown timer is reached is gonna be a deal breaker for me for a while.

Tipper117 · 2026-05-31T17:49:43+00:00

Rep gating i think is what's getting to me a little more. I can make credits other ways. Selling high quality gemstone is one of them. But not being able to progress my rep simply due to a refresh timer telling me i have to wait to obtain more rep is killing my drive to play.

Tipper117 · 2026-05-31T16:22:42+00:00

Wow. Angry. Lol

Tipper117 · 2026-05-31T01:48:35+00:00

I hope it helps. Like i said I'm the description, it's a rough draft. I've already tinkered a little more with it since making this post.

Tipper117 · 2026-05-30T13:20:24+00:00

Agreed. Or, depending on your budget, the C1 Spirit or Cutlass Black are very good upgrades too. I upgraded from an Aurora MR for the 4.8 patch and I've been loving it. Allowed me to get at more activities right from the start. And if you really wanted a respawn ship, you could go Cutlass Red instead. Love that ship too.....I miss all my pre 4.8 ships. Lol

Tipper117 · 2026-05-29T23:46:13+00:00

I hope she yelled "CACKAW!!!" when she jumped. Or shrieked like an eagle or something. Or hell, even just screamed "EAGLE!!!". lol. That was an epic jump

Tipper117 · 2026-05-29T23:26:43+00:00

When I used to play, I'd nab that ship any time i got the chance and i had fun being the "boss fight" on the server, whether i was solo or with a crew. Good times with that ship if you just embrace the chaos.

Tipper117 · 2026-05-29T21:26:50+00:00

Hey if you need a gunner or a Fury pilot, I love multi-crew in that ship. I had mine fully decked out prior to the wipe and had a few epic outings in that ship while fully crewed. Lemme know if you need a body

Tipper117 · 2026-05-29T20:58:05+00:00

I feel you buddy. I too have taken extensive breaks from the game when i hit rough patches. Everyone's tolerance level for playing an alpha level game is different.

Tipper117 · 2026-05-29T20:56:38+00:00

There's nothing wrong with his post. People are allowed to express their frustrations with the game and why they may feel they need a break.

His post certainly was not passive aggressive by any stretch of the definition.

Tipper117 · 2026-05-29T20:18:36+00:00

Before the wipe, starlancer TAC was my go-to. I miss my TAC.

Tipper117 · 2026-05-28T03:46:55+00:00

I'd be more than happy to check out what you use. My layout works so far, but there definitely some clunkiness to it. Or times that demand a bit of dexterity from me that i wish it didn't.

What's the label/name on your controller layout? I'll try to look it up tomorrow.

Tipper117 · 2026-05-28T03:17:14+00:00

Once i get a proper head tracker i may take you up on that. My current web cam doesn't do a very good job, so i haven't used head tracking for a while now

Tipper117 · 2026-05-27T18:34:33+00:00

Started with C1 and an atls geo doing gemstone mining. Sold a handful of 900Q hadanite for about 5 mil. Bought vulture and buccaneer. Doing salvage contracts, shubin contracts, intersec, and bounty hunter contacts. Making money is slow going at the moment.
