OFFICIAL Star Citizen

[AsRock]

well ... i got the 350R dogfight with another 350R when they did put the Origine free to fly event rushing at 300m/s thru an asteroid belt doing tight maneuver to evade missile (no chaff no flare authorized by a common agreement only speed and maneuverability ) and trying to get the other "contestant" in line with the guns ... was mighty fun!

my current ships are : MISC Reliant (LTI), Anvil Gladiator (more a trophy ship in my hangar ... until i see how the insurance and PU will work), Drake Interplanetary Cutlass Black, RSI Aurora LN and Mustang Delta
i don't plan to buy another ship (unless it's a LTI offer with a good price to go with) but i do intend to keep my subscriber account (centurion or emperor depending the months )

I hope it was not this one lol

1.1.5A patch just went live - a small 50MB patch fixing:

Spoiler

- Audio fix for loops not stopping when they should
- Additional audio limits set on objects
- Various fixes for GIM backend services to prevent infinite load screens and crashing as well as fixing the Friends list issue.
- MISC Freelanccers and Constellation Andromeda interiors are no longer colored completely black
- Fixed rocket pods on Mustangs (though there will still be visual artifacts in this build)

(the audio fixes are meant to have finally fixed the audio memory leak - although I'm still finding some issues with some audio in the retaliator not stopping).

Glad to see more rapid patches being released - they worked through the weekend on some of these (the audio team were certainly very active on the forums).

Another patch going to PTU now, (1.1.6) along with the new game launcher for PTU and live (giving much faster downloads among other things). Download the new launcher from: http://1.webseed.robertsspaceindustries.com/Installers/Star_Citizen_Launcher_Setup_2.3.exe

Patchnotes:

Spoiler

Launcher 2.3 Updates:

- Has an Options menu!
- Has a button to verify all files in the Options menu.
- Has a download throttle to reduce bandwidth usage.
- Supports both Live and PTU with Single Sign-On.

Known Issue: Changing between Live and PTU takes a minute or two while files are being indexed.

1.1.6 Game Updates:

- Battle Royale, Squadron Battle, and Capture the Core now require a minimum of four players.
- Raised maximum score on Battle Royale from 15,000 to 35,000.
- Lowered the maximum score of Squadron Battle from 100,000 to 75,000.
- Ready Up feature has now been added to all multiplayer game modes (this is inside the cockpit before the match starts).
- Ship scores have now been lowered again as too many points were given.
- Several changes were made to Vanduul AI.
- Shields and hull health for Vanduul increased.
- Number of AI Vanduul increased for three and four player Vanduul Coop missions.
- Vanduul AI tolerance increased to allow them to stay in combat longer.

Just started the new patcher - the game files are not in the same directory structure, so I copied the contents of my <install dir>/citizenclient folder into <install dir>/Starcitizen/public/. Went into launcher settings (only available after logging in) and clicked verify which then picked up all my files and did a delta patch on them (no more giant patches anymore - yay!)

Apparently this is the map of Terra:

Spoiler

I had no idea it would be so big!

 

[Nordic]

How is that to scale. Like, hours of walking from one end to the other? Minutes flying one end to another?

I can't wait!!!!

I don't know if we can walk between those places. I assume that it's some sort of mass-transit map.

 

[Random Murderer]

I assume that it's some sort of mass-transit map.

It is, for the in-game public transport; TRT stands for "Terra Regional Transit." I remember it being mentioned in one of the Time Capsule comm-links.
We should be able to walk from place to place if we are really so inclined, but that region is probably a bit bigger than NYC.

Due to see some really cool stuff on Friday at 4pm UTC from Gamescom - it will be livestreamed from twitch.tv/starcitizen for anyone wanting to see (they should be showing a huge world map, multi-crew for both the retaliator bomber and constellation and a ton of other stuff - possibly a SQ42 preview or something else equally interesting).

Really love that screen.
That's beautiful and all, but I would feel terrible stripping it apart and adding a bunch of buttons, hats, and switches to it using an arduino. The X55 Rhino, however... *laughs maniacally*

I love the addition of the trackball

 

[AsRock]

Some nice additions but still the fighting don't seem right maybe one day ( Hopefully ).

Yeah looks good, i would of liked it much more if it was in between the 2 controllers and not under your arm as it more likly get used as a arm rest or your arm just been in the way of 1/3 of it lol.

They've got a tali for sale without the bomb bays - you can then buy other modules like a troop transport, cargo bay, living space etc to be in the space the bomb bays use. If you get an empty tali and a couple of modules it should be less than a tali with bomb bays (the bomb bay less tali comes with LTI too).

Anyone want to try to beat Vanduul Swarm co-op?

 

[Iceni]

I'm currently looking at my X65-f and feeling like it needs new bolt on's.

Damn you SC!

I'll need to pick up a tablet first. I'm working through a list of equipment just for SC. Got my stick last year, Now got 3 monitors, Tablet is next I think. I've already moved the saitek panel to a position under one of the monitors. It'll just be a case of converting the saitek panel brackets into a tablet mount. Knowing me It'll be a cable tie and plasticard mod!

The final goal for me has always been to have a setup that looks like this.

I designed that new stick back in may......
