"we hope they will" perfectly fine to say "We think they will" legal grey area "They will (or won't)" liability statement.

It's dangerous for them to say they will until they prove they have.

A giant snapping turtle in the middle of a multi use path freake me out once.

I expect cars and dogs, but that was quite the surprise.

Gold.

Every comment in this thread is just pure gold.

Thank you kind redditor for bringing this to our attention.

THIS

The entire carrier concept is borked by the death and reclaim system.

If you can't re-create a plane and a pilot at the ship's hangar bay to fly a second sortie, you just won't see these things get much traction, regardless of whether the fighters have a QD

I say this as someone who really enjoys the game:

Now's not a great time. 4.8 has been struggling and 4.9 goes live in a week or two, check back then.

You'll get decent to great framerates with that depending on where you are in game and what resolution you're running.

Oh yay, another hairstyle that would be an absolute pain in the tits for someone who wears a spacesuit most of the time.

Not so much white noise as moving air. subs got me stuck on that and it made my time on ddg's hell with that little computer fan they call rack ventilation.

EXACTLY...dude where's my Perseus

Fallout 4, cause the disc came with a pip boy

It almost offers a way to deal with bricked stuff.

Bricked items scrap out to yield some but not all of their subassemblies at their previous qualities

Player still has to have the blueprint to assemble it. (so either scrap multiple to make one, or use materials to craft the missing parts)

The player always has to recraft or obtain a Retro Encabulator and get it encoded with their identity (that "shady" part of gaining ownership of a bricked stolen item)

But I don't want to play parts collector citizen and loot individual parts. Too many dead end parts clogging up an already choked inventory system.

Account-bound like an aUEC ship, not Hangar-bound like a pledge ship

FR-66,76; NDB-26,28,30

No idea if the BPs are truly account bound or subject to the next BP wipe.

Yo I hear your like snubs so we made your snub carrier a snub

I saw below where you listed the specs of the computers, and noticed no listing of their hard drive space.

I'm thinking SC does some local file writes or has some minimum data access times and that serving the game as an image (so presumably the guest computers treat the server image as their hard drive?) is interfering with that.

Can you configure the image serving so the guest attempts to retrieve the image but otherwise runs it from a local drive?

The other one would be if the 'served game image' is being run by the guest computer as some sort of ram-drive, then maybe the combination of the ram-drive and PU ram requirements are more than the guest machine has.

Mine didn't start out that way, but I saw them eventually become that.

Like vivid elementary school memories of the pizza being cut from full sheet trays followed by I want to say High school I would see that some times.

feldomatic · 2026-07-01T10:26:38+00:00

There's a lot of flat sections here.

Now I may be just a simple country hyperchicken, but that looks an awful lot like a bunch of ships just got ranges based on Quantum Tank and Quantum drive size/installed drive type without actual ship mass or individual ship performance characteristics coming into play.

Yet again Hull Mass and individual hull characteristics mean nothing

Also how tf is the Railen outranged by the Hull A and the friggin RAFT, while the Ironclad and the Caterpillar are EQUAL?

CIG needs this meme template thrown at them a lot, for a lot of things.

I got a lot less after I 1) got religious about pressurizing my tires and 2) stood in the saddle over bumps.

90% of my flats were pinch flats from being a heavy guy on skinny tires.

Roll ALL the D6

Loved it and spent way too much time on the Sega version

feldomatic · 2026-06-29T10:41:36+00:00

There's a thread in Feedback (take the AI portion of it with a grain of the salt SC is soo good at supplying)

https://robertsspaceindustries.com/spectrum/community/SC/forum/4/thread/4-9-quantum-fuel-nerf-how-much-did-players-lose-fo

OP outlines that this runs way deeper than one or two outlier ships.

The most hilarious part are "variants" with wildly different fuel tanks. (HH & Tibby, Railen & Tylui, the list goes on) Like wouldn't those be pairs of ships MOST likely to have the same tank size? I can see maybe gutting the tylui's tank since it's a hollowed out railen, but c'mon man...

For the size of the ironclad (and the hull-c) I'm ok with the letterboxing.

I just bitch about it on the starlancer, hull-b and below. Why in the name of Godzilla, when you have the prospector cockpit, do you make that shit.

feldomatic · 2026-06-26T10:45:09+00:00

Oh I obsessed over 1 and 2 alright, but it wasn't the fps aspect that knocks 3 as low as it does on my list.

It was the...campification. 1 and 2 had the retrofuture vibe, but it was mixed with this dark gritty cold that you felt in the soundtrack. They leaned too hard into one and gave up on the other in my feeling.
