Is the model Constellation a limited thing, or is it something they're still producing more of? I would like one but even with it going on sale it seems a bit too much for me at the moment.

Befre the sale there were like 40 in stock, when the sale began they bumped it up to 250 or so; I have not heard anything about them [I]discontinuing[/I] the Connie model, so you're probably safe not going for it. You can get a $25 discount for being a subscriber ($10/month), so you could save $15 and enjoy the benefits of subscription for a month ($5 hangar flair of the month, a bit of REC, etc.), even without the anni sale pricing.
at work so can't join voice and chat. also the stream keep bogging down and pausing, then skipping forward at random after it starts playing catch up

From Friday through Sunday, all ships previously available during this sale will return. Pick up your favorite as soon as it appears, or wait until the finale to make your choice![/QUOTE]
The P-72 Archimedes costs $30 and has LTI. If I'm not mistaken, you should be able to melt any pledge-available ship (including when the limited ships go on sale during their individual days) and upgrade from an Archimedes up to get LTI on your shit. Doesn't work on packages, of course. I'll test it, myself, because hell yes do I want an LTI Khartu-al.
little miffed the cargo hold avenger costs $20 over the base with rather specialized equipment. Sure the magplates and cargo netting is additional equipment compared to just stripping the hold bare, but yeah
[editline]e[/editline]
rip 20 bucks maybe eventually
I'd prefer to have cargo capability but would like to see more I think
it was just uploaded, so I guess it's still processing but I might be wrong.

give it time to process, it's up to 4k(30fps) and 60's would process next

Sean Tracy is so cool. They should let him ramble on about the technical stuff of Star Citizen more often.
I now regret that I've been addicted to FF14 for the past couple months because holy damn, could've been me. It's so close, though, so I can wait for a week and a half.

I've posted to the forums a handful of times but most of the bugs I encounter I see other people reporting and just don't feel the need to clutter with re-posts

did they show what the variants look like in the stream
i don't want to buy an internet spaceship from just a shot of its cargo bay/ewar system
no views of the variants yet, but they DID add the stock images of the avenger to the variant storepages thus far. No image of the dual cockpit on the warlock, so I guess we're waiting a bit for new renders overall
the Titan and Warlock BUKs will be available indefinitely so don't feel too rushed. LTI is the only limited thing here, and that's if you buy the whole ship outright (I'm SOL given the avenger is my only game package pledge ship). LTI isn't too big a deal, etc etc
I'm hoping for these to have unique skins like the vanguards did, but the stat that strikes me the most right now is APPARENTLY the titan (cargo) version will have S3 gun mounts while the bounty hunter and EWar variant stick with the current s2's. One could argue that a lack of EMP unit or human popsicle freezers means there's more available power to draw from with the same size power supply, thus larger guns can work without much issue. You could also argue it's for bigger fuel tanks since you're more dedicated to running cargo and would need to account for more travel between locations, rather than setting up base at a location and running missions in its general vicinity.
also it turned out I had a few bucks saved up from referrals so I picked up the titan upgrade and still have 10 bucks left over
[editline]e[/editline]
also also I found this while looking for the new cockpit renders, fun coincidence given this is what the avenger used to do when you parked it

The Warlock is not dual-cockpit; the initial idea for the dual cockpit was for the SQ42 flight trainer to teach you how to fly, and then they hit on a better idea for handling that situation and the dual-cockpit Avenger became a solution in search of a problem. It's not dead as a concept, there's just currently no use for it.

I kinda worded that badly like it's explicitly supposed to be there, but yeah
they re-revealed the dual in [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=3&v=JasKCpxfZ_w]AtV 60's ship shape[/url], they've but they didn't explicitly say what it's going toward. Maybe still the trainer, but would make sense having an RIO for EWar more than not

[editline]19th November 2015[/editline]
UPDATE: Avenger prices adjusted;
'Titan' cargo: $80 > $50; S3 weapon mount was a typo (as was everything else apparently!)
'Stalker' original: $60
'Warlock' EWar: $115 > $85
$20 base-to-titan upgrade: Not refunded but still shows $20 melt value. Glad I didn't apply it!
so theres no nda on the ptu
looks like ships show a little depressurization when opening the doors

So damn close. At least 2.0 is at limited release. Maybe next week.
Id rather enjoy 2.0 when the most common bugs are fixed!

I can't tell if it's the shader, the modeler, or both but this render looks off.
[QUOTE=Orki;49151313]Id rather enjoy 2.0 when the most common bugs are fixed![/QUOTE]
The game is already barely playable when it comes to crashes and connection issues. I can't imagine how buggy and unplayable the PTU is considering what a massive jump it is in features. I can wait.

it's the lack of beard if you're comparing the two images
