Game Discussions Star Citizen Discussion Thread v12

I'm sure Elite players would know. (referring to that built on features everyone hopes aren't in their final state part, not that any new gameplay is ever added to Elite)
Check this guy out not knowing Fleet Carriers (with their gameplay mechanics including player-owned commodity markets, ala Banu Merchantman) and Odyssey (bringing on-foot stealth gameplay, ala CitizenCon 2019) launched during the past two years :LOL:

Look I dont want to pay extra to get basic gameplay elements such as walking around... I also don't consider Odyssey to be part of Elite.

Ah yes, Fleet Carriers, the last tangible content update to horizons - which was delayed, and finally released in 2020! Gonna be 2 years without new gameplay content in Horizons this year, whew.

Fuel rats organisation doesn't change the fact that ED's refueling gameplay is just MVP.

That is a bit like saying that exploration in Elite is simply "honk and go". The overall fuel game loop, its features and how they integrate with the galaxy in Elite, and where refueling is just but one more element, is imo probably best in class among space sims. Looking forward to SC fuel related gameplay and refueling delivering this kind of epic player experiences.

Indeed, one you were so massively busy on a Discord for that you had time for little else apparently.

Yeah it is a video game, so why do you and ant defend it like your life depends on it?
Because it's fun! Also it's not that I didnt have time, I needed a break from here, you can only repeat 400 million 10 years so many times before it gets annoying.

Uh huh, and that just happened to coincide with CIG's 'blame the backers' announcement for you and Ant....yeah, entirely plausible.....

And what does it matter? Okay, I'll say it:

CIG should not have blamed the backers! I WILL MAKE EVEN MORE NOISE NOW, CHRIS!!!

Happy?
 
If you can't interact physically with limpets, they are just animation and could be replaced by a beam with no change to the gameplay.
Can you shoot, block or capture a refuelling limpet ?

Lol, you can.

(Limpets are physical objects. You can smash them with your ship, make them lose target by flying erratically, scoop up the destroyed ones etc. For the offensive variant, the hatch breaker, you can also shoot them via point defence, or fry them with ECM. Or even scrub them off your belly on a rock if you fancy. A key issue with mining limpets is that they get smashed by asteroids crags if you don't harvest at the axis of spin. Etc.)

For all its many faults, ED has managed to layer in a bunch of complementary features and 'working systems' over the years. You should look into them one day maybe ;)

But in the meantime, keep on announcing that 'SC feature X' is better than 'nasty feature Y', even when you know next to nothing about Y, and about as much about X... (Because it's not even in the game yet...)

It's super cute ;)

But it is, SC refueling is objectively more in depth than target & click limpets, lol.
 
I imagine Mole could wax lyrical about the techniques involved in refuelling someone who’s on a 25 minute life support timer, many star systems away, drifting helplessly towards an exclusion zone.

But why bother. Far better just to enjoy the cute ;)
 
New video from TideSpear, not their best but also not bad.

I (grudgingly) admit that I quite liked that, maybe a bit long for my taste, but I thought it was very well put together overall. I don't watch streams in genereal, SC or other, I'd rather play literally any game myself, than watch someone else play, but something like that, yeah sure, I'll watch it. Apart from the nifty editing, I also found the graphics to be crisp and clean looking, maybe a bit too much so. It's certainly starting to look a bit dated by now, but still, at least to me, pretty good. I'd play it - if there was a game!
