Honest question.. is there a film grain filter on the whole game? The inside shots when the avatar is looking at the dashboard looks.. weird, like someone fed it to instagram with an "Aliens" filter. Also please tell me by now you can switch that annoying motion blur off.

Not sure if a film grain filter is on since im still installing it (gimme a few days) but apparently motion blur can be turned off in options.
Yeah, same reason I haven't tried anything since 2.3 or whatever the last version was.. my current internet is so bad it'd take a week to download 80GB

Yea. Hate my ADSL. The new patcher means that we should not have to suffer full 30gb downloads anymore though.
I am sure, if it was interesting somebody already have a backup, if no -> its was drama in DS style...

Actually, you only need a watch, and a paper chart.
Haha, you got me.
I was squinting at that on the SC Reddit last night. Literally no idea what would make something do that (note it seems to swim with head movement, not planet rotation). Kind of hoping it really is just something weird with the video compression, but it really looks like that one asset has something wrong with it.
Maybe those buildings went to the Rise of the Triad school of walls

That model and location goes all the way back to X-Wing. It does the job perfectly for an arcadish space-sim imho, and a lot of players will be familiar with the compromises it offers, so I don't see any good reason for ED/SC to change it just for the sake of being different.

Ah, right, i remember that now! Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
What happened to radio navigation? Doesn't need maps neither. Just the frequencies. And a proper flight plan.
Pfff. Shields. True pilots flew Tie Fighter!
Meh. Those scrubs are only there so they can dodge spam and grind their overpowered TIE Defender and Missile Boat.
The mark of the Real True Pilot is flying the
Do you know what the first thing that struck me about when the player entered "greenhouse" or whatever it was called? (at 34:58)
They had plants growing in horizonally orientated cylinders.
Now, this is a brilliant design for growing plants in a zero-G environment. Problem is that Star Citizen has ubiquitous artificial gravity, so that design is completely superfluous. Plus they weren't rotating, so the main benefit for putting them in a cylinder is completely ignored.
This game is going to be mercilessly torn apart by players for whom "fidelity" isn't just a cool buzzword.
Give me a ping, Vasili. One ping only, please.
Sorry Ben, it's >1 asset.
It's beautifully rendered wibbly, though.
Yeah no- they have to reinvent every wheel- not just a couple. C'mon focus, here- we're pushing the boundaries of groundbreaking development...
They certainly broke the ground — I have to give them that. If it weren't broken, it probably wouldn't be so easy to fall right through it, after all.

You need a chart also though so you know where the navaids are - however, NDBs and VORs are being withdrawn around the world and being replaced by GPS. They'll likely all be gone in 5 years time.
Sure, but that's - again - wasn't that was hinted during KS period. As gameplay design it makes perfect sense. Question is that is it what was promised by CIG.

All of the buildings around Levski seem to vibrate/jiggle on the ground - it's really odd. I've noticed it on all the streams I've watched so far - pick any random building, head towards it a bit, then stop - the building is shuddering left/right. So it seems to affect virtually everything rather than a single asset.

To be fair, ED has similar issue now and then with connecting PG surface with placed buildings, not at such crazy extend though. Things to improve I guess.
Watching that stream with avatar, cargo and base...feels useless at this point. Needs way more meat before calling it alpha. Graphics/lighting in housing looks solid, so thumbs up for rendering team there.
It also gives strange feeling that while it kinda makes me wanting space legs, however gameplay have to be very, very solid, otherwise it will get tedious, boring and not worth it.
