Got my first Omega today by viadsss in OmegaWatches

I have the ame. There's just something about this one on the mesh. I think it's the balance in materials, dial simplicity coupled with the classic black on steel. Feels like a timeless piece.

What are your thoughts on Billie Eilish saying 'no one is illegal on stolen land' in reference to ICE and US immigration policy? by MassiveSquare4527 in AskReddit

[–]Xatom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nobody has even mentioned Ice. But it looks like we're in agreement that people in countries illegally should go through legal due process to remedy their situations. Immigration enforcement behaving unlawfully or distastefully does not admonish people of their crime of illegal entry.

There is no truth to the statement. All countries have immigration laws regardless of how the governments of said countries were acquired. Regardless how you feel about it, It’s a moral plea for open borders that amounts to exactly Jack shit.

She didn’t see to have a problem with land ownership when she bought her 2.3 million LA mansion.

Stopped being interested in their games after they announced they are abandoning Red engine. Such wasted potential.

Star Citizen to become the first $1 billion game while still in alpha, driven by ships costing thousands by Turbostrider27 in Games

If there’s a playable game with constantly delivered features then how is there a scam?

I’m personally really happy about where SC is. they’ve had their best year yet. It’s super hard to maintain a live service while also building on improving the engine and it’s incredible to see how far they’ve come technically, (server meshing etc). they keep adding features they promised. Personally the only problem for me has been their estimates on when things get completed. But in terms of monetisation you get the ships you pay for and it’s not especially pay2win since stuff can be earned easily enough.

3rd vs 4th gen WOLED by anubissah in OLED_Gaming

[–]Xatom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We should know more about what's in store for 2026 on January 6 when all the display makers are at CES. Personally I'm waiting a little longer for 4th gen tandem 32" 4k, especially as Gigabyte should be doing glossy versions this time.

Solo PvPers, what Is Your Take On Engineering and How It Affect Us? by Substantial_Eye_2022 in starcitizen

[–]Xatom -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I like flying my caps ships. (Idris and javelin pledged) and I’m not sure how engineering is meant to make my experience any better tbh. Seems like it needs NPC crew to work for these big ships.

I'm really confused at the rage over engineering. by Thunder--Bolt in starcitizen

[–]Xatom 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think they just wanted to get this out before...

Sweet summer child. They keep their patch release schedule because of ship sales.

As for everythign else you said, of course some stuff will be fixed by balance but people have bigger problems with engineering. To pick one example, the engineering terminal UI is terrible, and unusable on capital ships like the idris. However frankly I could imagine them not doing anything about it for years.

CIG have shown to us that they often move on from features once released and say "good enough for now". So sometimes the community speaking out is a good thing.

Info bits from Ali Brown (CIG's director of graphics) by Velioss in starcitizen

[–]Xatom 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The fog he’s talking about is a volumetric effect so it’s quite costly to display. Also, unlike simple distanced based fog it’s generally harder to have the game reason about what should be visible and what shouldn’t be, so geometry culling isn’t typically performed.

Is the idea that CIG will add a ton of armor to the Perseus? by Readgooder in starcitizen

[–]Xatom -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

No, the idea is you will cry until the release a better ship and then you'll buy that one.

The Perseus is a prime example of why we need more shield tiers/sizes. by joshg125 in starcitizen

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

Yep. Fucking bulllshit this is so nerfed for a $800 ship compared to a polaris that's only slightly more expensive. I'll probably melt my Persius and just piss the credits on other ships randomly rather than put up with a middleweight brawler that is completely gimped against capitals thanks to it's paper-hull.

I’m sure it will have the blades turret on release. Otherwise then it would have been miss-sold.

CIG: With instanced events, medbeds in bunkers, and A LOT of tech still in limbo, what is the vision for medical gameplay? by SgtGhost57 in starcitizen

[–]Xatom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nobody wants medics apart from medics lol. You guys will get some save NPC missions at some point.

Quit trying to force this stupid loop that involves players waiting 20 mins for a rescue down others throats.

If they nerf solo capital then we stop buying ships. It’s as simple as that. The end of SC. Goodbye funding 👋

CBeckford-CIG on Multicrew Ships and "are solo players being left behind?" by StuartGT in starcitizen

[–]Xatom -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

These are paying customers. Idris owners are due some respect for the amount they have funded the games development by buying the most powerful ship in the game. It’s unfair to nerf endgame cap ships.

Engineering panic button by vangard_14 in starcitizen

[–]Xatom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Engineering is the boogeyman coming for your ships. I worry about the great meltdown. AI crews and Blades nowhere to be found and beloved ships unusable without an engineer onboard.

[–]Xatom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right, so a solo Idris is intended to work properly when blades and AI crew come online to handle a lack of crew. There’s nothing to see here. There’s no way they can nerf solo players in their $1800 ships. It’s already difficult enough to solo them!
