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

as per our earlier conversation I found my screencaps of some of the crazy high backers in a thread about why they've put the money in [img]http://i.imgur.com/D04fx8g.png[/img] [img]http://i.imgur.com/VCwY56y.png[/img] god dAMN [editline]e[/editline] this is on point with my toy/hobby analogy but on a more common adult-with-money hobby scale [img]http://i.imgur.com/gGvqcCw.png[/img] [editline]e[/editline] [img]http://i.imgur.com/VeCXrXU.png[/img] for real though, there's a lot of heart-felt statements about their views on the game industry+publisher standards, nostalgia over CR's games and wanting to give back to him to provide new experiences for others to look back on, etc. Most of the people there are very clearly older dudes with time for a hobby and are pretty open about how they've got disposable income out the ass [editline]e[/editline] [img]http://i.imgur.com/OTyHj4z.png[/img]

Jesus and I thought buying a $125 Sabre for a game that wasn't released in full yet was a bit much.

I don't think just their monetary backing is high.

Anyonee else having infinite loading screens? Hangar gives me a loading screen that never stops, if i press universe and pick hangar/the other option it just b oots me to the main menu.

[QUOTE=S31-Syntax;49322758]I just hope that if need be I can panic-smash the use button, leap into the cockpit, intensly punch a few buttons and fucking punch it, launching straight up and away before the ship is even done waking up. Bonus points if your character starts yelling 'SHITSHITSHITSHITSHIT' if theres combat going on around you during this.[/QUOTE] It really takes way to long to get into the seats (the ones without mechanical parts). They should add some sort of double USE action that makes your character rush. Especially in ships with no eject. [QUOTE=dai;49322671] as for long animations (getting into the hornet is the worst stop fondling all the buttons) it was mentioned before that there will eventually be some contextual control over how fast you perform certain animations like entering your ship, using ladders/doors, etc. (I'm hoping it's based on how rapidly you panic-smash the use button)[/QUOTE] Ah good, i like the cinematic animations but damn.. stop touching all the mustang and aurora buttons, just start up the damn engine!

One thing that annoys me a bit, aside from the long animations and the camera, is the fact that when you walk up to ship and press f to open it, you have no choice but to get inside it. I know it's silly, but I want to admire the ship with an open cockpit goddammit, and moving far away from the ship while the whole opening-cockpit-animation is playing will only result in teleporting right back to the ship and climbing inside.. It would also be cool if you could just open the cockpit and let your friend fly the ship, even if it's supposed to be locked still. And then there's the whole falling of the ship because you touched a wall thing, but that will HAVE to get fixed..

Of course they'll do $30 starter packages less than week after I decide to buy in... But anyway, I still haven't had a chance to truly spend some time with the game. Will be nice once I do!

So I played some AC 2.0 last night and I'm loving it. Flew my rented Gladius around because my Sabre isn't flyable, but it's still looking like a game I want to play in two years. When I try to get to the Crusader map though, it says I'm missiong permissions. Is Crusader still in PTU?

[QUOTE=Saber15;49322118]Significantly longer development time.[/QUOTE] That, and they didn't start out with all the money.

My mustang is so hard to fly right now due to bugs. First it wouldn't let me enter the ship in Universe till i deleted my user folder. Now it keeps spawning my body in random places and the ship miles away in AC. Also, the rocketpods are glitched so they don't do the damage they should. Aaaaand, you cant EVA into the ship because you immediately fly through the ceiling. Sad face.

Slower than a hornet, turning and strafing capability is essentially nonexistant, and shakes around worse than it ever has.

[QUOTE=Mattk50;49323519]At least it's not a gladius. Slower than a hornet, turning and strafing capability is essentially nonexistant, and shakes around worse than it ever has.[/QUOTE] Seriously? The gladius [I]light fighter[/I] flies like a cow?

I hate how fast everything moves in Star Citizen, but even I wouldn't be opposed to bumping up the jerk a bit on the light fighters like the Gladius and Mustang. Fun fact: All those jerk mechanics and whatnot don't apply in decoupled, so if you fly decoupled you can still strafe around at silly speeds.

I really need jerk enabled for decoupled mode, and for jerk to seriously extend the ramp in precision mode. Trying to land how I used to in decoupled is as painful now as trying to land a mustang while coupled prior to 2.0

Yeah I cant get this running on my W10 system, AT ALL. Infinite loading screens and no fix, now im sad.

I'm running W10 and haven't had loading problems. Does it hang up while it's black, or does it get to the image of the ships fighting before locking up?

Loads fine on Windows 10 but runs like complete ass.

I just had internet sharing on for my Wi-fi adapter so my older game consoles could use that, after I turned it off its been loading and running fine on my Win10 system.

gunning the SH is the stupidest thing ever

When loading hangar it just infinitely loads at two ships fighting.

[QUOTE=dai;49327586] nyoom[/QUOTE] someone should do this again. iirc this was made back then when we had fmod.

Well, first thing I'd suggest, would be wipe SC off your drive and do a fresh install. I personally wiped it off my HDD and bought a 120gb SSD and put it on there. Load times are faster, I'd say maybe 5-10 seconds from menu to in game. (If it manages to establish connection without crashing) Your computer seems more than able to play it.

[QUOTE=Techbot;49329125]someone should do this again. iirc this was made back then when we had fmod.[/QUOTE] I was trying REALLY hard to get into a server with gaboer last night to do a cruise flyby in an M50, someone on reddit requested it. BUT, we only managed to get into the same server once over like an hour and a half, and it crashed the moment we opened the airlock also (win10) I have SC relatively fresh and on my SSD but it takes a good minute to load still. bah

Or does it need to be done in the universe?

[QUOTE=Sgt. Khorn;49329714]Why not get into AC arena instead? Or does it need to be done in the universe?[/QUOTE] can't use cruise. Even if you could, AC still exists in a tiny bubble with kill-walls and you're basically traveling the length of its diameter every second or two by the time you reach max velocity in an M50
