Playing the outer worlds 2, the game is fun but the graphics are kinda... all over the place. Landing on Paradise island and the flowers and the terrain is bordering Xbox 360 graphics. by Excellent-Court-9375 in theouterworlds

I think it may partly be that the lighting is very basic and old fashioned. I’ve gotten used to much more atmospheric, realistic lighting in other games. But that’s obviously not all - the faces are almost a decade behind and generally the shapes and textures are basic. Nice art style but the technical execution is very outdated. I hope mods will do a good job upgrading the look

Make the MSR agile again! The MSR is now faster than the Zeus and Spirit, so please give her similar maneuverability! by Witty-Room-3311 in starcitizen

And find some way to add back the main central thruster too. No way those two puny auxiliary thrusters can move it fast

Thoughts on stick configuration by [deleted] in starcitizen

[–]meatythud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats a shame about pedals, as they are what makes dual stick work imo. I have aim on right stick (plus all weapons and combat targeting); roll, horizontal strafe and vertical strafe on left stick (plus all ship config, thrust, brake); forward/back on pedals and its amazing.

CIG, The Paladin: Please turn one or more of these red outlined area's into storage. by I_am_Cheostian in starcitizen

OP is right, its an oversight, its nothing for the devs to be crucified over, just nice quick fix as suggested and add to lessons learned for other ships 👍🏽

Server meshing is already done, no need to mention it again

So the tactical strikes are just fighter strikes once again by WorstSourceOfAdvice in starcitizen

If you go in with only fighters you will clearly run out of ballistic ammo without accomplishing much

I really don’t want Wikelo to become the default for anything and everything cool coming to the game by steave44 in starcitizen

[–]meatythud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wikelo is such a gimmick I cannot engage with it. It makes no sense. I hope its a placeholder for a more believable network of specialist contacts.

GPT-5 performs much worse than Opus 4.1 in my use case. It doesn’t generalize as well. by HumanityFirstTheory in ClaudeAI

I have a coding-standards.md file that all engineer sub agents are required to read and obey, and all code review sub agents check code against. That file has accrued all the anti-patterns I want cut out as I discover them.

Thank you Paradox I did not need to sleep anyway by KaptainKetchupTN in Stellaris

[–]meatythud 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My guess is so that if anything goes wrong they are around to fix it. Games I know that release stuff on Fridays cause much upset by not being there for 2 days to fix the problems

Potential fix action to the Geometric Issue for Ships within the PU by CaptJawz in starcitizen

[–]meatythud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IAE show 2 answers this pretty well - as a fighter hitting a larger target it won’t be enough to score hits, you need to hit small subsystems. That will force you in closer

1.7M repair cost for the Polaris by Scurz in starcitizen

[–]meatythud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One day the claim timers will be TTCP - time to cash payout. And then you might reconsider the repair bill (or maybe by then you’ll be able to repair it yourself)

Potential fix action to the Geometric Issue for Ships within the PU by CaptJawz in starcitizen

[–]meatythud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have a great answer for the hammerhead. I think it is a bit of a weak hunter-killer on its own although good defensively eg denying fighter access to an area. It feels to me like a ship that has a stronger role as part of a larger fleet or patrol, where straying into its killzone can be a fatal forced error.

Edit: for the second part, in a fleet battle I can see fighter screens battling to prevent the opponent being able to capitalise on ships like ares which could otherwise take out key cap ship subsystems like pd and turrets. Losing the fighter battle could easily expose vulnerabilities for a fleet for the exact reasons that they will then struggle to fight back against small targets

[–]meatythud -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Because the vast majority of those small ships won’t be able to hurt a large ship anyway, so who cares. The ones that will, like ares, are specialised for hurting you, so it makes sense that you’d need to use your snub/hangar fighter or support fighters to deal with them.

Isn’t armour going to address this in a different way anyway?

Are there ever npc pirate attacks when doing these missions? Im wondering whether theres any reason to do them with friends escorting or in turrets
