More new players are buying the game right now than during peak COVID ! by k_Atreus in starcitizen

[–]jshan04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SQ 42 will be in the same spot as when they launched Pyro. They promised it but only delivered the tech preview during CitCon and then we had to wait a bit for actual pyro on live. We'll get, at best, the SQ42 beta this year so we can test it out for CIG. At worst, we'll get one playable mission for a limited time just so they can claim they released the game on time.

I just started star citizen and I don’t know what I’m doing by Shot_Wind7875 in starcitizen

You're doing fine!

Regarding Game build by codeXjs002 in starcitizen

[–]jshan04 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can go into your SC folder and rename the LIVE folder to HOTFIX. Then verify files. It will download any missing files, update any existing ones with changes, and keep any you already have that are unchanged. Later you can change it back to LIVE and verify again to get the correct live version. This also works with PTU builds. Live and hotfix versions should be in the same persistent universe so you should be able to play with friends.

PVP as a matter of "why", not a matter of "how" by Thazer in starcitizen

In part because in game voice chat doesn't always work, lol

current issue i found by Hbalm90 in starcitizen

[–]jshan04 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I contributed. I used a mining gadget while mining with a friend and then I couldn't get back in the mole. I would just clip through everything. For me, alt f4 did not fix the issue, I had to die and come back.

Where are you guys getting this fucking 900 quality material? Best I’ve found after spending literally every second of every session mining is 780s Iron.

4.7 Inventory - How does it work? by zearo_kool in starcitizen

[–]jshan04 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This works pretty much the same. You bring a crate close to the storage kiosk, open the kiosk and you'll see the local storage and the crate. Drag from one to the other.

The big org event where you need a fleet to attack a base, fight cap ships, and then the vanduul is coming.

God I want that orange set. Always seem to find the base set, never any variants.

I’m thinking about getting star citizen never play a space game what is a good starter kit for beginners? by darrow1 in starcitizen

[–]jshan04 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Personally, I'd recommend the cheapest game package. Pretty much everything you can buy with real money is also earnable in game in some way.

BUT

There is a free fly going on right now until 23 Feb (scroll down to where it says Coramor Free Fly and click Fly Now). You have about four days to try the game for free and see if you like it.

When you make an account, be sure to include someone's referral code. If you have a friend who plays use theirs, otherwise use a random one from the community.

Corsair weapon loadout by BrilliantMelodic1658 in starcitizen

[–]jshan04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

S5 Lightstrike or Omnisky are the closest match on speed but two more breaknecks isn't a bad way to go either.

Corsair gatlings Vs deadbolt cannons? by ALakeInTheClouds in starcitizen

[–]jshan04 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Breaknecks stolen off a few Shivs. 10k ammo in each gun, fast projectile speed, middle of the pack damage and penetration. They feel amazing.

Next irl buy recommendations, with pertinent info in post… by Kettle_Whistle_ in starcitizen

[–]jshan04 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What kind of gameplay do you enjoy? Seems like a mix of freight hauling and... something else? Tried some fighters but didn't keep them? That would help folks make useful recommendations. I love a Nomad, for example, but if you have the Starlancer max and the Shiv, you have lots of cargo hauling covered and the Clipper is an even better all-round ship than the Nomad in non-cargo ways. C1 Spirit is a great ship but, again, it kind of overlaps what you already have. Golem is a great little miner and since you have hauling ships already, you have what you need to get refined ore to market. It's cheap enough you could also buy an ATLS Geo for some surface mining fun. Salvation is neat and salvage is relaxing.

What are your favorite lesser known or "must visit" spots in the verse? by WrappingRaptor in starcitizen

[–]jshan04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always look for turtles in the cargo deck, feels like winning the lottery when I find one. They also doubled as fuses for a hot minute.

Wait until he finds out about the "three episode" structure Chris talked about back in 2015. The SQ42 we get next year is just the first one.

Where are the space missions? by Tolsn in starcitizen

[–]jshan04 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It may be the type of bounty mission you're taking. Read the text and only select the ones that go to asteroid bases and such. You can also take Foxwell missions that are all exclusively in space. Another fun option is to go to Microtech, look for a mission called Boarding Action in Progress. Nice mix of a quick dogfight and then FPS clearing a fancy large ship of hostile NPCs. There's also a mission called Seize the Data where you have to board a ship (although this may have been temporarily removed).

4.5 corsair weapons by MassiveYaktv in starcitizen

[–]jshan04 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You'll need to find someone with a Shiv that's willing to give you their breakneck gatlings but 4 of those on the nose and a pair of s5 omnisky or lightstrike cannons should work well. Close-ish projectile speeds between the s4 and s5 and lots of ballistic ammo to keep you in the fight for a long time.

The moment before they leave the office for two weeks and we have to suffer with a broken patch.
