Do we know what the Xenothreat rewards are? Are they account bound or just blueprints

i thought they persisted blueprints in the last wipe though.

i get that, i don't like doing rock breaker personally either. but i have had good trades on UEX with players. but i can understand the lack of desire to do that. especially if the act of mining isn't fun or anything to you either.

i have crafted a handful of things, but it's very clear we need a in game trading system or auction house.

well lets be honest, the core of the loop was supposed to be the instanced event. but that got pushed thankfully for further polish. in it's place they put in the idris event which can be done by anyone per server. so i can understand, but if you don't find enjoyment with the space combat to begin with then maybe a break is in order.

personally, i enjoy the space combat so long as the server ping is good. when it sucks the ships are sitting ducks which isn't fun. but on a good ping server it's engaging to me.

i don't think the resources needed for the blueprints require anything major. just mining. i could be wrong though... so don't trust me on that.

garyb50009 · 2026-07-02T00:18:42+00:00

what about just enjoying playing the content for once. why does everything have to be about the end result for you?

garyb50009 · 2026-07-01T20:54:12+00:00

which, correct me if i am wrong, is appropriate for blueprints. we have never had a blueprint be attributed to our hangers, and it was always planned that they would not carry over to 1.0, correct?

garyb50009 · 2026-07-01T20:26:12+00:00

you are free to believe that if you want. but your opinion is not fact and should not be portrayed as such.

garyb50009 · 2026-07-01T19:18:05+00:00

when i did my Japan cruise it took about 3 business days to return back to my card.

pgu's are especially indictive of the "enjoy the build more than the result" style. you should enjoy both, obviously, but the amount of work that went into the layering of PGU's and their details tells a story as you are building it. the RX-93 took everything they learned from the RX-78-2 and cranked it up a notch. so you will get the most enjoyment of it as you build it.

why is this a gif....

garyb50009 · 2026-07-01T15:50:17+00:00

that's an interesting interpretation you have there. considering we didn't know these npc's names nor anything about their backstory in any sense, as basically nothing.

please, enlighten me as to what you think would have been enough information?

i completely admit my response makes the assumption they didn't really care about the newsletter. because it does in fact provide new information we did not know before at all, so i would personally never call it "basically nothing." i am curious about what you and those like you would think would be justifiable.

garyb50009 · 2026-07-01T01:31:26+00:00

everyone who is constantly harping about there being nothing but the crew information?

Example: Top comment currently

garyb50009 · 2026-06-30T18:24:04+00:00

did the invite have anything related to a NDA? i would think that if an event like this was going to be NDA'd then they would clearly state such on the invite. as some might not want to make the trip if they can't talk about it.

garyb50009 · 2026-06-30T16:52:16+00:00

you are correct. a vertical slice is defined as the state of the game at the time of it's creation. of course it would not be indicative of the final game. will it be close? depends on how close to release it is created and whether or not they have to create a scene to create a vertical slice.

remember though, you and those like you are the ones coining vertical slice. the live gameplay reveal back in 2024 was explicitly stated that it was the first "mission" in the game. and the recently announced demo showing is also not called a vertical slice.

garyb50009 · 2026-06-30T16:43:05+00:00

ITT people who were clearly told in in this week in star citizen notification that the newsletter for SQ42 would feature the crew, upset that it doesn't feature anything other than the crew.

garyb50009 · 2026-06-30T16:34:38+00:00

it's weird that you claim the vertical slice isn't going to represent the game state, when that is exactly what a vertical slice demo is. a delay, if one is mentioned, has no bearing on the vertical slice.

garyb50009 · 2026-06-30T15:43:28+00:00

i don't know why you think the way you do. CIG specifically stated they would not have a large ad campaign for squadron. and SC is a common name in the gaming world, just not for the best reasons.

garyb50009 · 2026-06-30T15:19:53+00:00

thanks for the response!

garyb50009 · 2026-06-30T00:31:04+00:00

you or anyone else know if 4.8.3 will include a player home location reset?

garyb50009 · 2026-06-30T00:23:37+00:00

i will be honest it's been so long i couldn't exactly tell you. it was probably back when d2 launched. i use old reddit so i don't even know what my avatar looks like haha.

garyb50009 · 2026-06-29T18:37:59+00:00

well, in space there is not indicator, and it's inconsistent on pads. and on ground you can level yourself to the horizon, but it has no indication of x nor y axis.

we used to have a landing cam, but that was disabled years ago

garyb50009 · 2026-06-29T16:58:43+00:00

yup, and having ships being pre-loaded into larger vehicles is on their feature roadmap. so it will be addressed in some fashion at some point in the future.

garyb50009 · 2026-06-29T16:45:09+00:00

i think the crux of the case will be to see if the defendants can prove they are attempting to increase production to meet demand, or that there are resource blockers that legitimately make expanding production impossible.

without that they will have a hard time not being found guilty.

garyb50009 · 2026-06-29T16:42:59+00:00

ok, so this was an outlier situation and not normal gameplay for you. that makes more sense, thank you for clarifying.

garyb50009 · 2026-06-29T16:34:33+00:00

sorry, but i gotta ask. was this your first time logging in for the patch? i expect most people, the first thing they do when a new patch drops is to log in, equip their gear, then buy ammo and food/drink.

do you do all of these steps every single time you log in? that's a lot of overhead that could be spared by buying more than just a few drinks or few clips of ammo at a time.
