Haha, thanks. I'm definitely still in the fanboy category. I am, however, realistic, and wouldn't sink too much money into something like this. I feel like the money I've spent is worth it, just because I'm entertained daily with discussions and news about the game, etc. I don't mind helping to...

I posted this a few days ago on the old Rerolled site. Not sure if anyone's still looking over there. On a side note, I guess on Friday version 2.5 went to PTU (limited testers.) New article in PC Games (German magazine) - Some pics: SC planet procedural tech - Album on Imgur Article summary...

New article in PC Games (German magazine) - Some pics:SC planet procedural tech - Album on Imgur Article summary on Reddit: EDIT: Let me be the first to say that if they got those release timelines from Chris Roberts, then take them with a grain of salt. If he said Star Marine is in 2.6...

I never watch RtV - just read summary on reddit.

Pretty good episode (actually the last few AtV episodes have been good) - the interview with Tony Zurovich is worth watching (starts around 18:40):

Theirplanmight have changed from, "...a single player space sim with partial multiplayer functionality to one single player space sim plus a space sim MMO," but they never started designing/coding it that way. It's been built from the beginning as a persistent MMO. Squadron 42 (the single player...

A lot of you guys sound really salty about this project. Have you invested a lot and are worried? Myself? I'm just playing other shit and hoping for the best in a year or 3.

Well, how about a bit of news in here? 2.4 has dropped on the PTU, so we have some new stuff to talk about, look at. Patch Notes: I know that's a crappy formatting. Go to reddit if you want to see a prettier version:Reddit Patch Notes A guy filmed a Starfarer (first really big ship) in...

Probably just around the time we're all too old to play. Senility is setting in with a lot of us already.

So, yeah, I haven't been reading everything on reddit these days, which is where I probably would have picked this up. After you posted this, I looked into it, and it seems this info was, in fact, dug up by Goons/Derek. Not that it isn't true. However, it is, like you mention, about Ben, not the...

I read SC news everyday, and I have no clue wtf they're talking about. Probably the latest Goon/Derek conspiracy.

When you say, " Uh no. It'll have the same player cap," what exactly do you mean? Are you saying that their efforts to get more than 24 players in a zone will fail? I disagree, and most people following the development do. BTW, ArcCorp is already a 40 player cap... Devs have, on many...

I think ED and SC should both be in this forum. Well, I've never played ED, but I'm assuming it's like SC in that everyone exists in the same universe, just different instances, right? If so, I'd say it qualifies as an MMO. The thing about SC is that even though there will be limits to how many...

You can fly for free for this week. Check shit out, see what you think if you haven't yet. Here's a nice guide a fellow on reddit made: Free Fly Megathread - FAQ, QA, Live support! : starcitizen

I think some optimists still believe Squadron 42 (Episode 1) will be released at the end of this year. That's the single player campaign that is your intro into the Persistent Universe. By then, the PU alpha should be quite robust. They're releasing a fairly large patch every month so far this...

Pretty cool little vid showing the improvements in character animations and EVA mechanics. Starts in first person, but if you keep watching they show some 3rd person shots with ragdoll effects.

For sure. I don't even file bug reports. Just getting a little fun in space once or twice a week as the game grows.

No doubt, there are bugs - it is an alpha, but this video is pretty trollish. The guy had to be going out of his way to replicate and film bugs. I don't run into 90% of that shit on an average playtest. This weekend I had no trouble taking off and flying in the PU. I'm also smart enough to...

New electric shotgun and badass sniper:

Pretty cool video - preview of first of the pretty big ships being released to players. Coming in next patch, supposedly. EDIT - right after I posted this, they surprised everyone and put 2.3 on the test server. Some more stuff you guys might like: New Khartu Al (alien) ship flyable -...

I'm starting tonight (well 12am my time) and I'll make a guy on Edan. I'm not sure how much I'll play this game, or if I'll get into the PVP at all, but if I do, I'll hit up PRX.

Yeah, in hangar go to elevator to select Olisar. You can hit ESC to pull up menu for Arena Commander.

Guys, do I need to be stressed about rushing to grab land/property/nodes type things? I mean is there going to be a land rush or is it all instanced? I really need to read up more on this thing. Sounding really cool.

Okay, thanks for the info. Anyway to get into this today? Or us late-comers gotta wait for release?

I'm bored. Is this going to be any good for someone to play casually? I'm not into big guild bullshit, either.

At least. I'm sure if they sell well they'll release more campaigns.

So, they gave details on how pricing will change after the 14th. Turns out, basic package for Squadron 42 or Persistent Universe will each be $45. If you buy one, you can add the other for $15. Total cost is going up to $60, so it's not like they're actually doubling the cost or anything...

Well in AAA game development isn't less than a year imminent? You may kiss the ring.

Not sure what the question is. Is it a donation? No. You are buying the game + whatever perks come with the item/package you buy. If you buy a game "package" you get access to alpha, beta, Squadron 42, and the released version of the Persistent Universe (PU). If you are a normal person that...

Imijj, Derek's calling you; dinner's ready!

Guys, there's plenty of info out there about what's being done with SC. They're on a monthly content release schedule, and you can read their monthly reports, etc. (Comm-Link - Roberts Space Industries) You can, literally, see for yourself how it's coming by downloading the game and playing for...

Try it out, brother. It's free this weekend! Roundup: Free Fly, 2.1.2 Patch and Other Updates! - Roberts Space Industries

2.1 is on live, and I've played many hours with no crash. There are plenty of bugs, but no crashes for me. Don't bother with the tutorial, just go into the universe, wear a headset and let your mind be blown But seriously, if you need pointers just post questions here or in zone chat...

DS was 100% right when he said Star Marine was canceled? Huh, I guess I can agree with that if it doesn't get released sometime soonish, say, oh, before persistent universe official release. I'd say they have a bit more time though. Btw, the current alpha is really quite amazing; if you...

Most of us that played are pretty out of date I think. You'll get more helpful replies here:Elder Scrolls Onlineor here:Tamriel Foundry Forums

Just Goons grasping at straws because their faith in DS exposed their stunning lack of intelligence .

To add to what Tuco said, and address your second question: Arena Commander is not a separate game with it's own engine and physics models. Everything done in the persistent universe build will affect Arena Commander. If you change how a ship flies in the PU, it changes how it flies in AC. If...

Yeah, it has quite a few crash bugs introduced in the latest build. Supposedly the PTU build is more stable. It will continue to improve with incremental patches until the next big release when everything gets broken again. Welcome to alpha!

Yeah, minimal effects would be best, and keep ships maneuverable. Considering they all have shields, and gravity generators are a thing, it shouldn't be impossible to explain the "magic."

I think the scale seems off for two reasons. It's only 1000 km in diameter (the little planet) and the ship is going quite fast at first. It's clear they haven't implemented any atmospheric effects on the ship upon entry. Hopefully that will come.
