Star Citizen

Lots of people think it has been disabled. I'm here to tell it you still works! There is a secret hard to find location on the cockpit that allows you to turn it on, and activate/deactivate it. Check it out!

Hello Citizens! Has anyone tried Virpil and VKB flight sticks in Linux? Will the software run in Wine to configure the sticks? Looks like SC itself will run in Proton, so the next step is peripherals.

How about head tracking with TrackIR or Tobii?

Third render in my series so far. Let me know if you want to request any specific ships!

I think my favorite reward here has to be the ballista for the ones who were bombed by an A2 the most at Ghost Hollow.

So with the introduction of Vehicle Mounted Tractor Beams, I have come back to the Origin 315P.

It has all the amenities of the 300i and 325A, but also the maximum of Cargo Capacity (12 SCU). But the question is, is the 315P with its Sure Grip Tractor Beam instead of the S4 nose hardpoint worth it?

Sure you can pull Cargo with it, but you simply can't pull cargo onto your lift since it isn't a remote turret, and even then the fore cargo lift has its barrier in between the turret and the lift making it impossible to just pull and push the crates in.

Will the Exploration/Pathfinder variant of the 300 series get some additional aces up its sleeve, or was that it? And where are actually its ship components?

Took the SRV out last night for some bounty fun with the org mates. Never thought I'd have so much fun in an unarmed ship.

A couple of us were in combat ships, taking out the ERT bounties. Another ran a cargo ship. I piloted the SRV. Combat ships would knock down the bounties, preferably soft deathed. Any ships with decent cargo, I'd tow up to orbit and drop the ramp/lift. We'd transfer the cargo over, then make a run over to a salvage outpost and sell it.

Being unarmed put me in a position where I could concentrate on the big picture of the fight, while keeping an eye out for new hostiles. If we ever get the chance, upgrading the sensors on it would be my first component upgrade on it as a result (don't believe that's gonna happen). Towing the ships themselves wasn't complicated, but the mechanics involved mean I couldn't just tractor up to a Connie and horse on it without breaking the connection.

Update: apparently folk don't realize ERT bounty missions aren't players, but instead criminal NPCs. No players were harmed during the evening's events.

At the very least, it's a beautiful video.

With the luckily rapidly developed hotfix for salvaging and the Aegis Day during IAE, 3 friends and me rented a Reclaimer to test out the hotfix.

I was super happy to notice that the main elevator works flawlessly now. You can reach any floor and don't get stuck on one. The salvaging fills up as it used to be, but sadly here as well CIG decided to throw away the Abrade for a Sure Grip Tractor Beam, which as we know is now illegal to use on a ship.... good job breaking it.

One last thing though that bothers me is that the headlights don't work.

In the end we salavged a Starlifter and got 50 scu worth of RMC. Was quite the pleasant experience.
