Game Discussions Star Citizen Discussion Thread v12

Just noticed on my package I have an aeroview hanger listed, when I select Hangers on the main menu there are none listed, only place I can start from is Stanton?

There was a patch at some point recently where the hangars were removed. Not sure if they ever got put back it. It really isnt a big loss. There was not much to do in them and spawning ships in the hangars was buggy.

If you want to check out your ship in a single player mode, go to Arena Commander, Single Player, Free Flight mode. Can check out and fly your ship(s) around by yourself in there. Also a good place to figure out keybinds.
 
can someone explain to me, why this Thread is allowed on Elite Frontier forum ?
will they allow Frontier thread on SC or NMS or EVE forum ?
They have an ED thread on Spectrum...are you just another drive by? Seems to be a lot of the local flora and fauna dropping in lately...usually making comments on something they know nothing about.

This sub forum has been around for about 5 years longer than you have :D

I know this is not right. I'm surprised CMs are allowing this to happened.

Pray tell me why in a general gaming section there shouldn't be a thread on Star Citizen?

It's not a secret fan boi club or anything, you'll find more balanced views and comments on Star Citizen here than anywhere else on t'interweb...a few of us are backers, some aren't...all of us have played ED, some of us for many thousands of hours, most of us still do play. 🤷‍♂️

It's actually OK to play and discuss other games outside of ED...Did you know that David Braben is also a Star Citizen kickstart backer? ;)

Flight model enjoyment is pretty subjective. One fresh Cmdr liking what he finds (and specific things he felt were missing from ED, like a vector indicator vs 'space dust' etc), doesn't mean a '"fallacy has bit the dust". It means one guy likes the flight model ;)
I quite like SCs flight model :unsure:

TBF i was never a serious FAoff-er in Elite, mostly to enhance turns or some reverski, it doesnt really help ratting so just not a required skill, but yeah i can do basic drifting aorund a station say. I think of SC as "assisted FAoff", lets me drift into a landing pad, or boost away from a station but still spin 180 and enjoy the view as i depart. So fine for what i need, and arguably better than Elite as a casul.


Question: anyone know where to buy suppressors for personal guns?
The wikis say Nyx system, but i dont think i can go there / depreciated map, so it'd be good to know where one get them in current live.

This is a rival game, so is No Mans Sky, EVE, X4... I don't think it is appropriate to have a rival games having a special Thread.

The shop across from the habs at Area 18...weapons shop in Olisar or any shop that sells weapons...there are different sizes of suppressors so make sure you buy the right size to fit the gun. You'll find all sorts under the weapon attachment section of the shopping terminal...spare magazines, compensators, under-barrel attachments...etc, etc.

Aye, @Stinja... GaLog and others are kinda like EDDB, there's a few similar 3rd party trade apps for SC...they cover everything from DPS calculators to mining guides.

Pity Kate only had a casual miner to show her how it worked...her guide made it look a lot more difficult than it actually is by not using sub components or looking for more lucrative materials to mine. Corundum is worth about the same as dirt and wouldn't even pay for the fuel she used getting to the Aaron Halo belt.
If we ever end up group mining and someone says they are gonna mine a corundum rock, well, they are getting shot. 🤣

So some game companies allow discussions of other games, not only their own. For the longest time FD forums has had an "other games" section, where people are allowed to talk about games from other companies. Its rather egalitarian.

Take a look around, we have threads about all sorts of games here, not only space games.

Whether some other companies don't allow discussion of other games, we'll that's up to them.

CIG have also allowed discussion of other games, including Elite. However, unlike FD's forum, where anyone can post, regardless of whether they have given FD any money, CIG requires you to first give them money to post, ensuring a more, shall we say, curated community.

Not sure on what grounds you think it shouldn't be allowed.
 
It was just histrionic ;)

Strangely, we only hear about the "subjective" aspect of FM when someone say that the FM is good. Never heard your comment each time someone said the FM was utter crap here 🙄

So true, and with SC doubly so.

Cmdr Kate start to look at mining. Very nice video. I hope she will get a hand on the Mole soon.
I'm hoping Mole will do some more hand holding for me too 😉
Got the Prospector ship...
Got the Cutless Black ship...
{😘❤️😘❤️ to the two special guys for that!}
Bindings still being sorted out (hopefully I'll crack that today - it's even more of a headache than ED)
Then I'm ready to learn mining! 😜

While on the subject, I've got a particularly puzzling problem I'm trying to fix in my SC bindings.
My ship seems to have a forward / back velocity of ~15 m/s when my throttle is at zero [Thrustmaster T16000M FCS]. My initial thoughts were that it must be a deadzone issue but setting this to zero (or any other value, the larger the deadzone the faster the drift velocity - zero gives the lowest velocity) in the Controls/Joystick2 page for the Z-axis doesn't fix it. I'm still setting up the other bindings but I'm lost as to how to fix the drift as I can't stop it! Making landing all but impossible!

If anyone has any brainwaves or has experienced a similar issue, please let me know 😘
