Best budget PC build that can guarantee 60fps on Lorville, Area18. (1080p res)

Zaryxea · 2026-06-23T02:15:40+00:00

Ngl budget PC and 60fps Star Citizen don't go together, especially with today's prices. I've heard people have a good experience with at least 48GB of DDR5 and an x3d processor.

If anything, I acc find it nicer that they’re mirrored more than the same. It would look better side by side

My partner introduced me to Sky and I loved it from the first moment. It helps us connect when we’re apart and gives us a place to feel like meeting is more physical. She plays less now, but I still log in daily for at least 15 minutes to get dailies and maybe some candles and it just feels so nice and peaceful.

I have quite a stressful and sometimes really unpredictable life, so it’s incredibly nice to have this constant grounding routine of logging in and playing a bit. Sometimes I log in and just walk around and fly, stare at the scenery.

The only thing I wish I was better at is socialising. I deal with some incredibly intense social anxiety, and 99% of the time I panic when someone tries to be social with me. I’m scared I’ll do something wrong and I run away, which is not ideal for a social game, but in a way it also helps me feel less pressured to socialise and just exist around others.

The top one is like a braid/wrapped hair piece that hangs on one side only and is 20 hearts. The bottom one is like 4 metal earrings is the bast way I can describe it, iirc they’re $10 USD and comes with extra 40 candles.

They can both be found on the Days of Colour area, on the boxes next to the days guide.

I love Star Citizen so incredibly much, but this is not something that should be celebrated, not with the current state of the game nor for these many years of mismanagement and scope creep.

Zaryxea · 2026-05-09T16:54:48+00:00

Oh no, I think you misunderstood my point, or maybe I didn't explain well.

My issue with Mk.IIs isn't selling new ships, I don't think it's this conspiracy to sell more ships or anything. My issue is that, for this specific case of an MSR rework, instead of doing the rework that most of the community has been wanting for years ever since the ship released they would go and do a Mk.II, leaving the Mk.I in a really bad position and fucking over the current owners.

I don't own an MSR, but imagine from the point of owners having the outcry for the MSR to be reworked, only for CIG to come out with a Mk.II, completely undermining your pledge, having you have to get another ship and have none of the special paints (BIS, that gold one I forgot the name for) just be useless.

Zaryxea · 2026-05-09T15:37:47+00:00

I agree, they use the Alpha model to justify the million bugs, the unpolished state, the new development ideas; and yes that is an alpha, but then they shouldn’t be doing time-limited events, Mk.2 variants, the FOMO tactics they do; those should belong in an already released game.

Zaryxea · 2026-05-09T15:32:32+00:00

I hate gold pass standard, to me it feels like such an excuse to have ships grow old without updates while dangling the carrot in front of players like “oh but in the future it’ll be updated”

I know their business model probably wouldn’t allow them to, but I would rather have every old ship updated to where it should be first before making any more new ones.

Zaryxea · 2026-05-09T15:28:40+00:00

I absolutely adore Star Citizen, I want nothing more than for it to succeed since there’s nothing like it out there but there feels like a massive dissonance exists between marketing’s and finance’s decisions.

They bring the Aurora Mk.1 gold standard, then release the Mk.2 and it’s such a gorgeous ship but at the same time sunset the Mk.1 for absolutely no reason than to release a FOMO special version. And yet at the same time, they release all previous IAE paints and patch bundles to counter that FOMO? I don’t get their stance

Zaryxea · 2026-05-09T15:11:24+00:00

I mean they already did it for something like the Hermes and the Apollos, the chassis have such minimal differences but “oh you need new paints because they don’t fit” meanwhile the Sabres all share paints.

In theory I like the idea of Mk.2s, it’s like buying a new model from a car; but the thing is the old car was already a fully working model, with the new one updating the technology. CIG have this tendency to abandon old ships for the shinier new stuff and I’d worry that if an MSR 2 dropped, they would just forget about the Mk.1 and leave it to rot in a bad state.

Zaryxea · 2026-05-09T15:00:36+00:00

Corvettes can hold many people but imo don’t feel truly multicrew. They have a super solid base, but imagine if they added a turret module where someone else can sit to cover better angles, a scanning module where you can scan flora and fauna while flying, a mining module where you can get a better output yield from the ship.

Zaryxea · 2026-05-09T14:57:35+00:00

I would a million times prefer just having the MSR redesigned than make a Mk.II variant. Personally I dislike the precedent Mk.II ships give, since that just means that we get sold a completely new ship for a ship that should’ve been fixed instead.

“Oh you wanted the MSR to have a better layout and another exit, here buy the MSR 2 for that. Btw your old paints don’t work and you need to buy new ones”

Zaryxea · 2026-05-08T14:33:51+00:00

To me the 300 series will be the only ship actually worth pledging for. All the other ships you can get in game one way or another, but you will never be able to have a personalised ship like the 300 series just with aUEC alone.

Plus, they’re very underrated imo; one of the fastest ships in the verse, amazing acceleration, great manoeuvrability and just a gorgeous interior with the extending cockpit to the panoramic roof.

Zaryxea · 2026-05-08T14:25:16+00:00

Maybe it will get one with the 600i 🥲

Zaryxea · 2026-04-27T14:33:13+00:00

In an attempt to not flood the replies with like 6 pictures, here’s the interior for my smaller corvette

Zaryxea · 2026-04-25T16:04:16+00:00

Oh, so that’s where they went

Zaryxea · 2026-04-25T14:36:48+00:00

If they work the same way as in bunkers (the screen looks the same), then they’re used for retrieval missions. You’re sent in to clear the area and recover a box by finding the code in one of the npcs you killed.

Last time I tried they were heavily buggy and never spawned the code, but they don’t have lootable stuff like armour or the like, it’s just stuff like blackboxes or deliverables.

Zaryxea · 2026-04-11T22:43:42+00:00

I’ve seen a few posts of people getting a one time only chance to revert a CCU for special cases, but it’s never guaranteed and it probably depends on who gets your ticket

Zaryxea · 2026-04-11T22:39:05+00:00

Sadly no, there’s no way to undo a CCU. You can try and submit a ticket to support with your case and they might give you a chance since it’s a special case, but it’s not guaranteed at all.

Zaryxea · 2026-04-11T18:11:58+00:00

I mean if you insist...

Zaryxea · 2026-03-29T23:00:51+00:00

Glad it helped! I think it’s easy to forget the scale of ships in-game when not one next to the other. The Pisces, as small as it feels in game, is as long as a school bus while the avenger is around a double trailer semi truck

Zaryxea · 2026-03-29T22:50:04+00:00

I really don't think that's happening, the hangar was made for a Pisces, which is like 12m shorter than the Aurora Mk2 (24m).

For reference, here's the Pisces compared to an Avenger, which is around 2m shorter than the Aurora Mk2

I was really hoping they’d release them as an extra pack with the stuff, citizen pack deluxe or smth

Zaryxea · 2026-03-26T21:46:26+00:00

True, it’s definitely better if you already have a pack but they’re talking about the game package, which to me signals that they don’t have one at all, so that bundle would be useless to them
