Wow that video session was very immersive. It's good to have friends in the verse, that can come and pick you up. And the part about players getting a mission to hunt you down while you are hacking? How long does that work? Until you cear your criminal record?Where the fight took place is almost the furthest place from the Star (Stanton) in the system and in the shade of a massive and very dense lagrange cloud (where the EVA sections took place), it is a particularly dark bit of space up there. Usually elsewhere in the system, there is sunlight glinting off the hulls and the ships are way easier to see... even from a lot further away.
If you liked the EVA sections, Kate Byrne's newest adventure in Star Citizen should be right up your street
Missions are generated as long as the guy have crimestat. The first BH to get the mission have the tracker to the criminal. If you fail, you can't get again this mission and another BH can take it. I don't know if there is delay before the regeneration of the mission.
Those bounty hunter missions are full of adrenaline and the best part is you can do them by ship or by foot/EVA. So a total noob can do them with an Aurora, go to a station being hacked and try to shoot the bad guy in EVA/on foot with a basic SMG or P4. If you are a good FPS player, skills matter.
Oh dear....
Do you have any advice for someone with the shooting skills of a stormtrooper?
Ooof, time for another ship sale!
Peoples' thoughts on self destructing / backspace-ing to avoid piracy? - Star Citizen Spectrum
Hi there, Recently I've been doing a lot of piracy in SC, mostly snaring ships carrying refined materials - why do they keep self destructing? Frankly, I think it's hilarious, but I am wondering...
robertsspaceindustries.com
LOL, SC has its own version of combat logging... self-destructing.
Very LOL. Like people think they are sacrificing their dignity to stop a pirate getting goods in a computer game. They don't care.
At the end of the day though, during alpha, none of this really matters. Things might change on release, where loss will have more of an impact, especially if they implement that idiotic Death of a Spaceman guff.

I wish I was English like my hero Tj.
I rented a 300i yesterday since I've always loved the Origin aesthetic. I have not messed around with one in a long time, since before the re-work that happened a couple of years ago. Anyway, I took a box delivery mission and was stoked that I'd actually be able to store the boxes this time in a legit cargo hold instead of trying to stack them inside my 2-foot square Aurora cabin. (The 300i for those who don't know has a little cargo lift under the belly).
Long story short, I land on the moon and start putting boxes into the cargo lift but each box I put in the game bugs out and sends the box hurling about a thousand meters down into the planet's surface. Meanwhile my 300i is bouncing around on the ground because the physics engine is (as always) struggling.
With all my three boxes melting in the planet's core and having no way to finish the one mission I took for the evening and having just spent thousands of aUEC on a ship rental I rage quit for the evening.
And I was really hoping I would have another great play session like I did the last time. NOPE.
It's unbelievable that this kind of bug is still plaguing the game after all these years. This is basic stuff. Either the engine can't handle what they're trying to do, or they simply cannot or will not fix it, but either way it's inexcusable.

But some people assure us these sort of bugs rarely happen these days! They can play for hours without encountering any bugs.
Its probably your fault. Did you install it on a SSD?
Anyway, ITS ALPHA! Alpha probably isn't for you. Come back in another year or two (as people have been saying for the last 6 years at least).

How can this happen with the hUgE amount of Elite players abandoning Elite and playing SC now?
scratches head
Because of this possibly???

They found SC is even more bugged than EDO and lost all faith in humanity.
SC doesnt brand itself as a "finished product" non-Alpha product as EDO does. Odd some ED Refugees dont comprehend this. It's BLASTED in the very beginning before you spend you $45 for the starter package.
The graph might be missleading you. The last 4 weeks on it accounts for around 50 000 - 40$ pledges. That's a dream amount for any Game developer in the Alpha stage.
How much are shareholders who control EDO willing to spend on their precious game that they dont play?
It's alpha for 10 years now. The excuse got stale after 3 years already.
Or a barely enough amount for a developer with four offices in multiple countries and 500+ developers to pay with no other source of income.
How would you know except for just pulling these numbers out your rear?

But the graph has been trending down for weeks. Given the alleged mAsSiVe exodus and transfer of ED players it should have been showing some kind of increase instead in June and July, no?
Uuhh... No it isnt. Ive been a backer since 2014. CIG is building not ONE but TWO games:
1) Star Citizen 'The Persistent Universe'
2) Squadron 42 (Enter Episode) - Single Player Version of SC.
CIG could have done what Frontier Developments did and abandon their single player game. SQ 42 is requiring massive resources in the form of their own HQ in England.

Not necesserily. A lot of players already own both games. And some of those like me that haven't pledged yet, we just have strong will power to resist the temptation until later, when the time is right for us.
Looking at their numbers.it's not like they need the money anyway.
