Star Citizen Megathread - Star Marine isn't doomed after all! - Games

[QUOTE=Visorak06;50686120]That thing's way bigger than an african village, try several city blocks layered on top of one another. And yeah, communication and coordination would be the biggest challenge of running a ship that enormous. Quick question for those inclined, I saw that the Lightning was up on the concept sale board in the video. I thought they weren't selling any military standard ships other than the Idris variant?[/QUOTE] It's easy, we just run it like Space Station 13. What could go wrong?

[QUOTE=elixwhitetail;50687528]The Aegis Terrapin, confirmed on RtV, although apparently the ship concept has changed since it was presented to us in the starter ship poll. The Hurricane's also in there but has likely role-changed as well. The first challenge an org will face once they repair a derelict Bengal is figuring out the logistics of actually flying the fucker and not being a sitting duck that anyone with a Cutlass can capture.[/QUOTE] I'd hope they change the terrapin, given its description is basically a well armored mary sue style mix between the Reliant Sen and the Prospector. Of all the things I'd assume the 'heavily fortified' part will stay, since it's named for a turtle

What could go wrong?[/QUOTE] Last time I played on that I blew up half the stations science wing because I thought it would be a funny idea to create a slingshot based teleportation hub system that somehow ended up teleporting a bomb. Or several bombs. Yeah you try defusing a flying bomb stuck in a teleport loop see what happens

Heads up for y'all, the ATV 100th episode part 3 is out on youtube. Off the top of my head it goes over the Austin studio, shows off the 80-85% complete Drake Herald, shows off more of Grim Hex (and lighting systems they're debuting inside the station), touches on FPS stuff, and there's a big interview with the PU director about procedural tech and subsumption AI. Good stuff. [video=youtube;Hi0aTS-YvYs]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hi0aTS-YvYs[/video] Oh, and apparently Delta patching is around the corner. Downloads should shrink significantly to around a gigabyte if I understand. Woo.

[video=youtube;i3rqgoYxh0o]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i3rqgoYxh0o[/video] Starting tomorrow, they're opening up access to the game to free accounts for a free week. No promo codes needed. [B]Multifactor authentication is now implemented[/B], with Android and iOS apps, plus email/multifactor auth token app (like Google Authenticator) options.

Because my ship barely did. Also why was BadNewsBaron there with you :v: EDIT : didnt notice the stream icon. I'm dumb.

I don't think I've actually experienced one of those EMPs up close, that was cool

Big Bennys shirt preorders are up for Subscribers, but no Medium or Small sizes in sight? [editline]15th July 2016[/editline] I know its "Big" Bennys but what about the little Bennys :(

gonna start cataloging random bullshit that happens in star citizen. I had to mute the original audio due to shadowplay recording discord, didn't want my friends to hear themselves so i decided the dub the whole thing with some hanna barbera sounds and other fun sound editing. Basically its my first time i did such a thing. [video=youtube;HhF-UY1zzv8]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HhF-UY1zzv8[/video]

Imagine if some troll crashed a bengal carrier at peak hours, I think it would be the biggest mass player death in MMO history.

[QUOTE=Wii60;50730572][img]http://i.imgur.com/bQia8sR.jpg[/img] thank derk smet[/QUOTE] Is that picture showing that the refund stories are causing even more people to buy in? Holy shit.

[QUOTE=FlakAttack;50731913]Is that picture showing that the refund stories are causing even more people to buy in? Holy shit.[/QUOTE] It was also a free flight weekend.

[QUOTE=Saber15;50732151]It was also a free flight weekend.[/QUOTE] That's a good point. Well either way it seems the "scam citizen" accusations haven't really hurt the game much.

[QUOTE=FlakAttack;50732630]That's a good point. Well either way it seems the "scam citizen" accusations haven't really hurt the game much.[/QUOTE] reddit being angry over things they can't understand hasn't hurt it either. noticed a bigger volume of star citizen threads popping up in /r/games and stuff and some people are cool and neutral about the siutation (tos change seems weird/The game has bad fps (But they dont know its because of the server bug) but blah blah) and others are just angry over it for no reason or stuff they didnt understand. some sample threads: [url]https://www.reddit.com/r/OutOfTheLoop/comments/4t5zyz/what_has_everyone_pissed_about_star_citizen/[/url] [url]https://www.reddit.com/r/Games/comments/4t5cqy/star_citizen_free_fly_week_now_available/[/url]

Was the Argo that little tugboat utility thing that sits in the back of an Idris? How would you have access to it?

[QUOTE=Why485;50736656]Was the Argo that little tugboat utility thing that sits in the back of an Idris? How would you have access to it?[/QUOTE] It's a snub, and they're probably holding a concept sale before/with 2.5 launch and/or Gamescom for it. So, same plan they have for other snubs, eventually, I guess. If it fits in an Idris one can probably fit in a Cat (maybe not by default with stock modules compared to the Dragonfly) and whatnot. Also, that 2.5 comment by Leverett was deleted shortly after posting. :xfiles:

[img]http://i.imgur.com/POaZOUU.png[/img] it'd probably be a really tight fit at best, like one completely stripped down cargo segment to fit a single argo
