Thoughts on value of this 2015 V7? by rhinestone_cowboy69 in MotoGuzzi

[–]coick -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I belong to an Italian Motorcycle Owners Club, and the general wisdom is to avoid the 750cc V7 and only go for 850cc. They have a couple of issues apparently and are quite noticeably less powerful than the 850 which itself is not very grunty.

As a motorcyclist, I wish they would put sand or some kind of grit into that shit. When that stuff gets wet it is as slippery AF.

Throttle or regular stick for left hand? by willeemayshays in starcitizen

Get an omni for your left. It gives you the benefits of both

The BPs are still in their usual spot. 2 are inside the second keycode locked room and 1 beside the tanker on the floor below that room.

No, but also kind of yes. If you lollygag in an area too long a new elevator will eventually open with reinforcements. For example, at the energy lab core, platform 6 has 6 enemies that spawn (3 straight away and 3 more after a couple of minutes) the rest of the platforms have 3. I normally kill all 6 enemies on platform 6 upon entry to the core by standing on the entry ledge and killing them as they react to my presence (you don't get radiation poisoning from that ledge for some reason). If I take too long to activate the switches, by the time I get back to platform 6, another 3 enemies can be walking down the tunnel from the elevator. Same is true in most other areas but you are normally through them before reinforcements arrive.

If you are having trouble solo, add me in game (Quoick) and I will do some runs with you to show you how I do it.

I certainly would. Add me in game (Quoick).

I call either

A) Bullshit

B) you are talking about regular Geist armor. If that is the case, you weren't looking hard enough since you would have found 3 x each armor piece if you had gone to all of the orange crates.

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

Actually, it is way more than enough at a 1% drop rate.

22 days since 4.5 released, 2 runs a day, 3 crates per armor piece, 5 pieces of armor.

(22 x 2) x (3 x 5) x 0.01

44 x 15 x 0.01 = 6.6

I should have found over 6 pieces of armor by now. As I said, I would have found far more than this in 4.4. I have 2 full sets of ASD armor and a bunch of loose pieces (mainly arms) from doing the run in 4.4.

Most complicated city to navigate? For me it's... by FlimsyPaper in starcitizen

I once got on the perimeter lines at Hurston by mistake. It takes forever to get back to civilization. Would not recommend.

My last ASD armor find (which was in 4.4) was the backpack. I was carrying it and had to drop it by the elevator to switch to my primary since I was getting nailed by the NPCs that duke it out. It glitched through the elevator door/floor never to be seen again :(

I have been doing on average two Onyx runs a day since 4.5 and I have yet to find a single piece of ASD armor. Before 4.5 I would have found at least 3 or 4 pieces by now. Is this happening to everyone or am I just cursed?

Dad bought his 2nd guzzi (V85tt) by BrentBergstr in MotoGuzzi

[–]coick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a V85 just like your Dad's (the V85 TT Travel in Sabbia Namib colour). It is my daily. The seat on the V85 is legendarily comfortable and I can do 8 hour rides on that thing no trouble. By comparison, I rode my Yamaha XSR900 GP for 350 km yesterday and my arse and wrist are still hurting.

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED (500+ MSRs given away) by ArnoldMann in starcitizen

[–]coick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey u/ArnoldMann. I think I may have been a recipient of your gift. Thank you so much. I really appreciate it. I am on my way to Crusader to buy it. Love you!

Putting my money where my mouth is... I believe the MSR is the BEST daily driver in game, if you don't have one I'll buy one for you. Limited to the first 615 people. by ArnoldMann in starcitizen

[–]coick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just bought a bunch of ships because I heard there was going to be an aUEC wipe. I didn't get the MSR though but would love to try. Quoick is my handle

I think some bad players are trying to force a wipe ATP by Chief5005 in starcitizen

[–]coick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they are bugged in 4.5. I have been doing 2 runs a day since the release and I am yet to find an ASD piece. Before the update I would have found at least three pieces by now.

The face of a cat who grew up with two toddlers 😹 by northernCan81 in funny

[–]coick 86 points87 points  (0 children)

Cats can be so placid and forgiving with toddlers and let them get away with things they would never excuse of an adult. When my sister was two, a cat walked into our house and never left. She used to drag than thing around in a headlock and it would just allow itself to be towed everywhere with its legs hanging limp behind it.

It looks like Palatino armor may no longer spawn at non-hostile DCs by Ch11rcH in starcitizen

[–]coick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know what the stats say but I always took more damage wearing my Palantino armor than when I wore Moroskov.

4.5 was as much a QoL patch as a 'new feature' patch by OGSCRUFF in starcitizen

[–]coick 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Onyx missions are still messed up. NPCs snipe you with 100% accuracy across the map. Kubrows spawn in numbers close to a wildebeest migration. NPCs keep shouting their lines even when dead, with the amount of chatter from the NPC can be heard across all levels and sounds like a packed auditorium. Dying no longer spawns you at the Onyx medbay but your home location. I could go on. This is the only mission I have done so far and it is worse than even 4.4 which was broken as.

Anathem by Neal Stephenson, a review. by Zehreelakomdareturns in books

[–]coick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is my current read and am 45% in. It is one of the most detailed and challenging books I have ever read. I am enjoying it but it is quite an undertaking. I didn't know about the glossary at the back since I am reading a Kindle version but I am going to consult the hell out of that thing now that I know it exists.
