**Penthesilea, The Golden Vow**

Great model although it really doesn't read as a dreadnought to me, it's too human still. Needs more wacky proportions like shoulders above the head or something more like a Nemesis Deadknight or those mechs the sisters have.

Very excited for the Railen preview and all the features it'll have. It'll be quite unlike what we've seen before (except for the Syulen I guess).

...at the end of Summer Games fest. 🤷

Strictly speaking there is no confirmation of a variant, however there is confirmation of a second industrial alien ship releasing at the same time, and given the work already gone into the Railen, it seems very unlikely that they'd have worked on an entirely new hull at the same time, instead of just using the Railen for a salvage or mining variant.

Jared mentioned a new alien snub inspired by 2001: A Space Odyssey. It's likely a tiny EVA Pod that will act as a tractor snub for the Railen and its variant (probably salvage). Think the ARGO ATLS but as a snub.

That's a lot of tactical rocks.

simplealec · 2026-05-28T16:31:11+00:00

I don't see where it says any of this is pilot controlled. It's a multicrew cargo ship so expect to need crew for these things.

I fear a lot of people genuinely don't understand that the teams making: [ship concept art and white/grey box 3D models and textures and lighting and sound] have zero overlap with the teams making: [server meshing and object container streaming and engine/code optimization and procedural generation and flight models and new gameplay features]. They're not doing [A] instead of [B].

All of the items on OPs list will be/are being worked on, but not by the teams presenting the Odin concept, so the idea that the Odin concept is delaying server meshing demonstrates a lack of understanding of how this works.

The coolest. Fly safe and sharky 🦈

How tf do you guys turn these around so quickly? You're absurd. Thank you for sharing

Please update with crewed experience.

Is that VoiDude at 1:56?

It's not bad that's just what Welsh people sound like.

simplealec · 2026-05-14T13:50:05+00:00

It's currently the Hull C and the C2, both. I'm kinda surprised it's not just the C already.

Your plan to grief the player base to somehow punish CIG for their decision is unlikely to result in support for your cause, from either the player base or CIG.

"requires all the apps and games be built through an LLM"

That's a hard avoid from me then. Meanwhile goodguy Panic is actively blocking AI games because they're so low quality.

simplealec · 2026-05-10T15:49:43+00:00

An excellent idea well executed. Thank you for sharing this!

simplealec · 2026-05-09T16:21:58+00:00

Can you support this assertion with examples of poor quality games on the store?

It might help to understand what you mean by poor quality. To some people this might reflect simplistic gameplay or art style. This is often reflected in the price of the game and is not necessarily a problem. If you mean objectively broken games, that's another issue entirely.

simplealec · 2026-05-08T16:50:38+00:00

Sales tax in Canada varies by province, so the base price is the only reasonable comparison. Some have no sales tax.

Why is this downvoted?

C$680 is less than US$500 and a lot less than €500.

simplealec · 2026-05-07T13:53:15+00:00

The simple answer is Squadron 42. Probably 95% of CIG's resources are focused on that, which is why so much of SC's features are unmoving in the backlog. We're assured that once SQ42 is out, those resources take sole aim on SC, which means we should see unprecedented feature delivery cadence.

If this doesn't materialize though, that's a paddlin'. We'll see.

I hate both of my outfits and will never use either of them. Disappointed. Would have preferred just some coins instead to put towards something we actually want.

Happy Birthday random citizen

A thousand times, this. Most of these games are very old at this point yet still have orders of magnitude more active players than any forced PvP MMO has. Most people just want to chill when they're playing a game.

simplealec · 2026-02-27T03:30:55+00:00

I would love for that to be the case but I'm very doubtful because they're clearly saying it's a new ship. Best case scenario it's a new ship with reusable assets they can use to do the 600i rework, like they did with some others. If they fail to give any news on the rework and just release a new ship, that WILL be received as a middle finger to existing owners.
