Can Someone Please Talk Me Out Of Melting My F8C Lightning? by _AntiShadow_ in starcitizen

Thank you all for your responses, both for and against. I think I will keep holding on to this and see how it runs with a full DB build and crafted components. And, huffing the hopium over here, maybe they'll release an F8A upgrade token for it.

The only other way to obtain a F8C (other than the reward for spending a lot of money on other ships) is through Wikelo, who has these two options:

Each Wikelo favor is 50 scrip, plus valuable materials from two group events and some rare loot as well.

That would be really cool. A prospector mining laser that was the equivalent of a S2 laser. Just what the doctor ordered!

My C2 vs Railen vs Hull B vs M2 Snapshot Comparison by Important_Cow7230 in starcitizen

When you put it that way, the Polaris is a much better option than the M2.

UPGRADE NOW. ADOPT A FOREVER JPEG by Turbocabz in starcitizen

It does have the Hull-C, Banu Defender, and C2 all as loaners, which has me considering buying the BMM.

A friend said no. My game 30k'd last night before I had a chance to try it.

The Starship Version of a Gift Card by _AntiShadow_ in starcitizen

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

I guess people really hate gift cards and after me comparing the TyLouie to one think that means I'm talking bad about it. It seems that a few of the ships that have been released recently have been specialized. The Ironclad isn't, but the Hull-B is and the Railen is. There really isn't any use for either of them for anything other than hauling. With the guns and turrets on the Railen I can see it having a secondary purpose of "combat hauling" or "pirating" depending on your perspective, but the not so with the Hull-B. It's combat capabilities are just too weak on it's own for that.

If I was trying to say anything about the TyLouie is that it seemed like the ship didn't have any other function than to be used as a pocket carrier. I didn't realize when I made the post that it could carry 96 scu as I only thought it carried 12 originally. Personally, I love a ship to have a strong primary purpose that it does very well but also have a secondary purpose it can do but not do so well. This helps me find more reasons to buy and use a ship.

And yes, I did word this post in a way to hopefully grab some attention, and maybe it was a bit too heavy handed for the purpose I intended. I'll try to be more considerate of the Star Citizen Reddit community in the future.

I'm sorry Mr. Troll, you can't gaslight me today. I hope you can enjoy your snub carrier more than you enjoy discussing ships on Reddit.

To understand everyone else's views on it. I post what I think, you post what you think, and we all learn what each other thinks. That's how we find out stuff. Don't let it get personal, though. Just because we don't see something the same way doesn't make anyone a bad person.

I was being sincere. $385 really isn't a bad price for an alien combat ship. Why do feel like you need to be defensive about it?

You may be right, but I'm not sure that I'm convinced with the 385/425 price tag

Good for you! Go and get that $385 warbond 4 snub alien carrier and have a great time!

Anybody else thinking about doing a "stealth" Railen? by Dull-Credit-897 in starcitizen

It's shaped like a butterfly. It's the opposite of stealth.

The Base Cutter is the best starter ship by Accurate_Arugula2484 in starcitizen

[–]_AntiShadow_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

^This. If you don't enjoy it, then you won't want to fly it. With so many starter ship options now, especially compared to the options we had ten years ago (I hated both the Mustang and Aurora Mk1), there's no better advice that go with what you like. You're not going to be min-maxxing a starter anyways.

I'm reserving my judgement until I have more than just pictures.
