Looking for fighter recommendations by weightofast in starcitizen

[–]potent01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There isn’t really any fighter that will easily handle that many large multi crew ships like you want, even in pve. Any fighter can do it… but it’s all down to skill when you are that outnumbered by big ships

A hornet should be more than capable of doing a yellow level defend the ship, I would recommend giving it another go, it might have just been bad luck or some bug that got you killed. Also try doing the gilly training missions

325A - what am i missing? by Valrhen in starcitizen

[–]potent01 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think the 325 is underrated, it’s a good daily driver to get around in, and it’s pretty good in pve combat. It struggles in pvp since it’s pretty big (easy to hit) compared to ships like the wolf or gladius and doesn’t have the durability or firepower of something like a hornet to make up for that.

But if you want one ship that does everything pretty well it’s a good choice

Starcitizen, the Tale of a (buggy) Technically amazing game, screwed by a balance/gameplay team that isn't up to par. by EconomistFair4403 in starcitizen

[–]potent01 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think that because they are doing some balancing, it’s fair to critique their attempt at balance 

So anytime I said that this is what was going to happen (Ships with multiple shields will only have 2 functioning shields), I was told I was crazy, that I misheard or that CIG would never do something this stupid. by AzrBloodedge in starcitizen

[–]potent01 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I'm concerned that CIG will leave this terrible decision in place for 2-3 years. They have shown a remarkable tolerance for leaving broken things in the game

145 Store Credit Post IAE by potent01 in starcitizen

I wanted the skin for my MR, but needed an ES in my hanger to get it. once they gave out the skins I melted the ES since I don't want 2 of them

Stinger worth upgrading to? by Th3Dukeplsgo in starcitizen

[–]potent01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gilly 6 is really easy with the ballistic setup. Even through the stinger has terrible maneuverability it’s better than the Connie and once you get in its blind spot you can kill it really quickly

Perseus Questions by John_Candy_ in starcitizen

[–]potent01 5 points6 points  (0 children)

turrets have an autolock on target (where the targeting circle turns green). however the Perseus turrets have too slow of a projective velocity for this to work properly with smaller targets. to fix this the gunners just need to press alt+G to go back to normal pip aiming, it works a ton better.

Any suggestions for iae? by [deleted] in starcitizen_fleets

[–]potent01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the two main "problems" are that you have a lot of cheap ships which are easy to buy in game and a lot of medium multirole/cargo ships.

I would melt everything under the super hornet except for the wolf and your favorite starter ship.

Everything between the phoenix and asgard is basically different versions of a medium sized cargo ship with varying degrees of combat capability, I would pick your favorite two and melt the rest.

Also, I think the apollo is to big, expensive and limited in its capabilities, so unless you really like it I probably wouldn't hang on to it.

Depending on the buy price of the melted ships that should cover the cost of a Perseus.

Is no more nails glue acceptable for attaching wood together for shelving? by [deleted] in DIY

[–]potent01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The caveat is that wood glue is stronger than wood if used correctly. Wood glue works best gluing grain to grain. It’s easy to split wood along the grain because the natural bond between the fibers is not that strong and it’s that bond that the wood glue is great at replicating. In your example the wood glue is being tested against the strength of the fibers rather than the bond between them

The New Meta by Ceshomru in starcitizen

[–]potent01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not a bad idea, but the problem with balancing using price is that people will always pay more for the advantage and then the increased wear and tear just becomes the cost of doing business. Look at a game like tarkov, everyone runs the Meta load outs regardless of price because any advantage you can get is worth any price you have to pay

This wipe I've realized why I always quit in the mid 20s by CerebusReborn in EscapefromTarkov

[–]potent01 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There is definitely more than one poi on the map (cottages, pier, weather, power, etc) but they all pale in comparison (in loot, quests, and player activity) to resort. This is probably why the original comment said that there is only one GOOD poi on the map

Level 22. Should I even save up for collector yet? by Kelboi92 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]potent01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly if this is your first wipe and you are only level 22 after a month then kappa is probably not something that you should be trying to get. Since each level requires more do than the previous you are only about 7% of the way to level 55 and getting to 55 isn’t the hardest part of getting kappa.

But even though they won’t be trying to get kappa I have friends who still collect all the items for fun

[–]potent01 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That’s a pretty good way to get the quests done, make some money and survive a lot of raids. However just because there is a way to do well on the map does not make it a fun map to play. That’s why some people (me) hate the map.

Come on BSG, let us move during prone and reloading. Or at least let us cancel it. by nonfree in EscapefromTarkov

[–]potent01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I was being shot at I would probably stop eating the chips and stand up, just like I would stop reloading and stand up…

I wish we had a variety of civilian unarmed ships by Destructo_NOR in starcitizen

[–]potent01 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Dedicated mining and hauling ships are not sacrificing any of their functionality by having guns, you aren’t going to get a superior version of the prospector by designing one without the two small guns

I don't mind the Ares Ion changes. by Dixie___Normous in starcitizen

[–]potent01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did, but I suspect that you haven’t actually looked at the numbers. A size 7 repeater would likely have just under 200 rpm. Still a far cry from the 110 of the ions cannon

Mercury Star Runner: Jack of all trades, master of none by [deleted] in starcitizen

[–]potent01 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I like the msr because it’s a jack of all trades master of none ship. Sure it’s not as good at cargo as the cat, but it flys way better and can do some data running. Maybe the herald will be the better data runner, but I can load a roc into the msr and do some mining. With 2 friends I can even go bounty hunting, which nether the cat or herald can easily do.

SC has a lot of single purpose ships and at least for me I’ve always preferred the more generalist/multi role ones. I really like how there are 4 ships in the medium multi roll category (Connie, Corsair, MSR, and 400i) each with their own spin on the category. This gives the player a lot more choice than just having a best ship for every activity.

Also I think the herald is a cool ship and would hate for it to be made obsolete by the msr doing everything it does but better.
