Hey, I hate walls of text myself but I’m asking for literally any help here, a very good friend and orgmate of mine was diagnosed with a pretty shitty disease and needs to pay his health insurance. I can’t personally afford to help him monetarily, so I’m spreading this for awareness and would really appreciate it if you could at least spread it as well. We have this post in spectrum: https://robertsspaceindustries.com/spectrum/community/SC/forum/50182/thread/alcatrazskywalker-his-life-is-in-danger
Please share this. As a side note, before he was diagnosed he used to 3D print Star Citizen related stuff, and would be willing to sell some to afford his insurance. We're still trying to find out if it's ok to put up the 3D printed stuff up in Ebay or something.
Please DM me if you think you can help in any way.

Wtf is this channel lmao
Person has uploaded several times a week sinse 2009 with like 200 views
@white cairn ?
its a serious channel

But uh
I don't think its warnable
its just a misleading channel name

What are your all time favourite ablums alds? Any genre.
Just ping me with your suggestions.
Are you asking anyone or a specific person @tired lynx
Anyone.
@tired lynx The Cure - Disintegration
Joy Division - Unknown Pleasures
The Olivia Tremor Control - Black Foliage: Animation Music Volume One
Car Seat Headrest - Twin Fantasy
Nine Inch Nails - The Fragile
The Smiths - Hateful of Hollow
Those are a couple of mine
Thanks fam.
Disintegration is just my jam so far.
Boy you sure have a refined taste for music @jade helm
Thanks! @tired lynx Yeah I’m mainly into alt rock; that’s my shit. I listen to everything but those are most of my fav albums; aside from The Fragile.
@magic sinew Thanks. Lets me know I'm still sane.

@haughty badger no memes here
This chat is for serious, off-topic discussion. As a sister channel to #star-citizen, all the same rules about memes, shitpost, etc are to be obeyed. This is not a meme channel.
Well. Seriously off topic is really misleading as title. It sounds more about something that is... "seriously off topic", indeed. Not serious.
I agree 
@unique ridge Petition to change channel name to "serious-off-topic"
And technically speaking mine was not a meme. It was just an image with my comment on it... Like a lot of other images posted here. But ok. I'll just refrain from posting here, lol.
I'm sorry if I hurt feelings of members of the flat Earth Society...
@haughty badger my dude you're fine, you got your point across and it was dealt with, no need to get passive aggressive on us just because there was a misunderstanding

I'm not passive aggressive. Not at all. Was just explaining my point. And since I'm usually forced being serious all the day at work I just prefer to post in other channels of this discord server where I can post my humorous things.
I'm sorry if I hurt feelings of members of the flat Earth Society...
Yeah, was intended as a joke. Sad it was not understood.
Generally, any serious channel is meant for serious topics, and memes go either in #shipposting or #off-topic-not-sc and most of time, its in #off-topic-not-sc
Not making it better, you're just reiterating what was already said
It was actually easy to misunderstand the channel from the name alone
“Serious sidechat”
this channel was a mistake

converted #sidechat to #sc-screenshots, and moved sidechat over to #569990438132645888
Well I didn't wanted to raise all this discussion. Just wanted to introduce with a funny image the serious topic of flat Earthers...
It's perfectly ok the name. Now we all know the purpose we can stick to it whatever name the channel has... At least for what concerns me

anyone every play this game?
Yep. It's a time sink designing ships.
Here's the "smaller" ship I built.
And here's the capital ship I built that I ended up hating.
I'm thinking about getting it with a friend, or a few friends.
would you recommend it?
we really dig pulsar: lost colony, seems right up our ally.
Yeah, it's a good way to lose a week or 5.
lol
Depends on how you play it.
Keep in mind it's still in early access so there are still various bugs and rather sudden stops in certain areas. But it's still pretty fun to poke at now and then. I might check it out again since it's been about 6 months since the last time I played through.
looks like a really small community, but that it's got a decent development team and is smooth around it's edges. from what I can tell.
no game is perfect unfortunately.
really wish we could all play star citizen, but it's just not there yet.
Also, they have a discord where the devs are super active. Like I had a bug report and they managed to find the cause within a few hours.
wow that's great.
Oh yeah, and if you're looking at getting into building your own ships, take a look at the channel EpikTetus, he did some guides on building ships in ISR.
thanks for the tip.
I feel like the devs on interstellar rift and stationeers should team up.
interstellareers.
They're extremely different games if I'm thinking of the right game.

anyone buying ships with BTC?
Possibly, but Grey Market discussions are frowned upon here
oh no just use a bitpay card or something
Ive considered doing grey market transactions but only in aUEC transfers

Big el oh el.
We're all lost to gaming addiction and need intervention. Videogames make us violent.
I dont agree with that. I just think WHO isn't staying in their lane, and this has come out through political influence and no actual concern. It says that anyone who values games over outside life has this disease. Thats the most blanket ass nonsense I've ever seen. That applies to anyone who has a phone.
I think we are blowing it out of proportion because its a meme
But there are definitely people who do need help
ie people who spend 50 hours in one game without sleeping, eating, bathing, or taking any breaks whatsoever
That being said, WHO has established the disorder as a near copy-paste page of the gambling disorder. They clearly didn't put much effort into this.
Yeah, psych is a really grey area
It's unrelated to loot boxes.
How so? If your gaming and happen to buy loot boxes then that's gambling essentially
They're simply addressing the obvious addiction to videogames from the younger populations. That being Millennials and Gen Z.
Which would then lead the people who have no knowledge or experience on gaming to file it in relation to gambling
They arent addressing lootboxes in this, or gambling. They're simply addressing the priority of gaming itself, over real life concerns.
Such as a job, or going outside.
It's just about as blanket statement as you can get.
"priority given to gaming over other activities to the extent that gaming takes precedence over other interests and daily activities".
I'm pretty sure if you have $27k to blow on virtual ships then you have more money for food
This would be you choosing not to eat because you're playing a raid in WoW.
Thats how vague this is.
Well no, thats a one time thing and skipping a meal here and there for a run might be alright
But if you do it on a daily basis and to the point where you are going hungry, then there is a problem
You're right, but they dont think so.
Obviously, their statement doesnt make that distinction
They think if you value gaming over anything else, then you have a disease.
And you'll die.
(since thats how they classify diseases)
This feels like its coming from the populations of Korea and China where gaming addiction is pretty serious
Obv it can happen here too, but the US doesnt have as many computer cafes that you can live in
so far as I know
I doubt it. They've had nationwide issues for a long time now. It doesn't make much sense for WHO to come out with this just now, and have it a copy-pasted article from their gambling page. I doubt their research was very thorough or backed up at all.
I feel like it'd be a more thorough independent article if there was a bigger reason behind it.
Im almost certain that its backed by some other ulterior motives
Certainly. I'm betting political.
It doesnt read like a report on a serious subject, just a bare minimum to get something generic down on paper so people can claim broad use of it

Are they finally putting Navi on the market?

Seems like they are going to be faster than Intel and around on bar with nvidia.

Hmm yeah
Someones probably botting
When do Ryzen 3 come
Gen 3? July 7th.
And yes.
Ryzen 7 is 400 something (I think) and Ryzen 9 is $499
Ryzen 9 out performs an i9 9900k.
And it's $500.
Do any of those have a gpu?
They're also selling a new line of gpus
If I'm to switch to an AMD CPU I require it to come with a gpu, I dont care about buying a seperate GPU
They are really good apparently. These new ones.
We'll see.
Yeah but thats irrelevant when picking CPUs
@floral pelican not in gaming
The computex presentation seems to disagree with you.
there is 2 kind of peoples , the ones that listen to bullshit , and the ones that do math .
🤷🏻
choose your pill
Thanks for the useless contribution to the conversation. Would you like the benchmarks? I'm sure you can find them.
What games are coming to Steam?
@hollow sedge Also, Mox is right
The two vulnerabilities shit on shintel and you no longer not only have 20% less power per core, but also no hyper threading
So, either way, youre wrong
Obv, could be cherry picking, but no HT and the spectre/meltdown shit already hit them pretty hard
So no way its going to be good for them for some time
Also, really?
Either/or fallacy?
Seriously?
pfff , there was 2 benchmarks , one on a game very very optimized for amd stuff , and one custom probably very partial again , and to complete with that they cant even take comparable hardwares , with similar core count etc ... 100% bullshit , now if you apply math , you quickly understand that's ok AMD did some improvements and their new cpu probably match the top end of intel , but i know intel still have a small edge over AMD , because multithreading over 8 still not that common , because frequency still matter a lot . That said i agree for work AMD is now far more superior for multithreaded softwares , and cheaper . But in gaming a 9900 or even a 9700 remain better . You cant prove me wrong , no worries , lets wait for real world benchmarks .
yawn
Don’t be a dick either aereon
"I think Intel is still more technologically advanced even though the i9 is now being outperformed by the Ryzen 9, therefore you're wrong."
"but my marketshares!"
@magic sinew they only mentioned Gears of War and Age of Empires as the first titles to come, eventually it'll be 20
Ah niceu
So probably forzas, and whatever other Xbox exclusives there are
i would trust you if you show me revelant graphs made by independant peoples in fair case scenario .
[2:07 PM] Mom: "There arent any benchmarks so I'm right."
Ryzen 7 3800X is 3% better than i7-9700K in single core performance, and 37% better in multi-core performance.
I believe they repeated that performance jump for the Ryzen 9 and i9.
Honestly, just wait for release and then Linus will nut himself after dropping the Ryzen 9 and having it still show some seriously high performance
Probably.
It's okay, Token. You dont have to respond. We know you're wrong, so theres no point in trying to defend yourself. We can wait for benchmarks if you'd like, so we can come back to this and tell you you're wrong. Again.
3% more perf single core which translate as 3% more performance at same core frequency , show me a 3800x reaching 5ghz on all cores
Ay dios mio, amigo.

beginners often get caught
Why are your pants down, then?
Haha
marketing BS vs real world
Idk man
Gotta be some serious marketing BS to convince The Drop Master to drop money on Ryzen
He's recommended Ryzen before.
However, if the demos were any indication, Zen 2 is definitely going to put pressure on Intel to either improve or lower the price point on later generations.
por que no los dos
I just realized that the new EVE event thing basically copy's Stellaris Gate builders event
Some of the ships even look the same
they're building a gate in eve now?
It's a big advertisement on steam so I checked it out
Apparently it was small gates but now it's a massive ship that forms its own gate and all these ships come jumping out of it
And they're coming from a desolate sector of space that is void of life
Just like the L sector from stellaris with the gate builders....
@magic sinew afaik the full MCC, forza's non released games on steam, gears of war, and some more
the soruce is trustworthy
called the MCC a year before its anuncement and the coming of yakuza to pc some time ago
i guess he has contacts or something
I can't wear contacts. I have astigmatism.
You can get contacts for astigmatism though - I'm wearing them right now
Ofc it won't work if it's bad enough
You guys ever use the food subscription boxes? And if so which one?
didn't linus give the most hilariously shillest benchmarks ever devised for his ryzen 1 "reviews"?
also mfw people taking amd marketting benchmark figures at face value ahead of real world testing being at all available. that's a fun one. has provided many laughs over the past 15 years
i think ryzen 3 will be pretty nice tho
but amd overhyping products and then underdelivering is like the most defining aspect of the company during the past decade plus so...
"haha look at you guys falling for marketing bench marks even though I agree with you".

i dont agree with you
you guys sound dumb with the above arguments made
like linus really?
You realize they gain nothing by lying, right? They've been the underdogs for the past decade. Now is the time, if any time, to be as honest and open as possible as they bypass their rival.
is right
Also "marketing benchmarks" would be falsely advertising their product since they started specific clock and render speeds. They'd just get sued.
never underestimate AMD's willingness to undermine themselves
anyways suit yourself
you seem new to pc hardware game with arguments like that but sure,
There is nothing about the computex presentation that supports your silly skepticism and holier-than-thou perspective on things.
it's the same old story
there's nothign about amd's observable record in this area that supports what ever it is you think this is
When was the last time AMD or Intel boasted such a massive jump in technology for their own line?
literally never.
amd boasts massive jumps and outperforming their competition every single product launch
No they don't.
for the past 10 years plus
Lmao.
they do
Now who sounds dumb.
sigh
seem new to pc hardware

boasts massive jumps and outperforming their competition every single product launch

AMD fanboys are like flatearthers
What does that even mean lmao
You just nod and leave them to their militant beliefs
I dont like AMD at all. I'm an Intel build person, and have been ever since AMD let me down repeatedly, but it doesn't benefit you to openly dismiss a company's very obvious advancement in technology, which most of us have been waiting for for years.
I require single core performance and an on-chip GPU which thus far automatically disqualifies AMD
If there was anything I would be militant about, it would be removing those who arent able to change their mind when new evidence is brought to them
If their benchmarks are accurate, AMD outperforms Intel chips in both single and multi-core performance. That was the point of the conversation.
Clearly there are more shintel fanboys out on the net despite the vulnerabilities fucking and mucking performance culminating into some seriously shit product
So by now, whatever performance advantage was there is now gone
The vulnerabilities dont matter as home user
And AMD still struggles with single core performance
Wrong.
What are you smoking and would you mind sharing your material?
Though.
Did you even watch the presentation? They're matching Intel single-core performance now.
They've closed the gap, and the competition is palpable now.
Why should I care about a presentation made by the very company thats trying to sell their product
I'll trust neutral benchmarks when theyre out until then its hot air
Because they have no reason to lie. They're the underdog. They've been at this for literal years. They gain nothing by creating a PR event that negatively affects their company.
Maybe that is so but why should I place blind faith in them?
Who asked you to put blind faith in anything?
I wouldnt really call it blind faith when they show you the numbers.
Its not even blind faith here, its actual market competition that hasnt existed for 15+ years
They show me some numbers, I'm not in a rush to replace my current cpu
Nobody is rushing you to replace your CPU.
I'll sit and wait to see how they perform in the real world and then make a decision whenever I need to upgrade
Youre making the assumption that we are trying to get you to replace hardware
Stop pulling crap out of your head
Youre telling me I'm wrong for not being hyped
Nobody is hyped either.
Again, not my words
Ive been saying that you havent provided any actual reason to not see why Ryzen gen 3 will be a game changer
Youve been either not getting that point or just outright providing non sequitur reasons for it
"""realism""" 
And now its time to bail. Im not falling into this shit pitfall lmao
bye
This whole conversation was intel-fans openly dismissing AMD's claims, and then people who are actually halfway rational pointing out how irrational it is to be an intel fanboy after AMD's announcements. AMD has underperformed and have accepted that reality for the past decade or so, so when they come out and say "We're better than Intel now, and we'll sell it to you for cheaper", that's going to ring some bells to people who actually know how social psychology works. You can be cynical and skeptical, but there is a reason behind why someone says what they say, or why they behave the way they do. This case isn't rocket science. They wouldnt make this kind of announcement unless there was actual weight behind it.
Intel fans are reacting to AMD's history, assuming they're incapable of such advancements. Or they're scared that it's true and their all-mighty Intel build is now moot and we spent several hundred dollars more than we needed to just to get a gaming PC now that AMD is selling i7 and i9 tier CPUs for half the price.
Theres also a difference between being a pretend "realist" and actually knowing what youre talking about
The second you start claiming "I know Im right cause Im a realist" is the second I can smell the bullshit
Cause in no way can you validate a point just from the claim that "I definitely know what Im talking about"
Everything youve said so far has been quite the bullshit so I'm quite done talking to you, as for Mom, no objection there but I find it wholly silly to, as a consumer, make a competition out of whose manufacturer is the better one, we'll see when they're on the market
Whether or not AMD is more trusthworthy than other companies is irrelevant when its just healthy skepticism to mistrust what any coroporation in existence tells you
I only bought Intel because AMD wasn't giving me what I want. I have no loyalties to any company. I'll build my PC out of whatever parts that offer performance at a low price.
Lol ok kid
Yea, as will I
/s
Dude you called me so much shit in the last 5 or so minutes, the one who has to grow up clearly isnt me here.
Hmm that /s automatically moving to /shrug is annoying
Really rustled your jimmies there, learn to deal with it
My loins are fine tyvm
And so is my head, save for congestion
But so far it doesnt look like youve come up with anything concrete besides "im a skeptic" "im a realist" -- the usual BS fallback tropes of any imbecile that cant argue for shit
Its not even an argument at this point, its nuances of how they pulled it off. There is no way to say for sure except for waiting 6 days, but regardless, its not going to be a great quarter for intel
Finally you manage to form a sentence without resorting to ad hominem, keep improving

Another trope, claim "ad hominem" when you lose so that you can look good on the surface, but really, all tangibility was long gone
Feels good man
Just call everything a trope then cuz youre better
Why thank you
Point fucking proven about AMD fanboys I'd say
Nice. I see you havent yet caught on.
You don't support taking company sides, but you accuse other people of doing so just because they pointed a finger at you, and questioned your logic.
Ya'll need to be nice.
You can question my logic or you can just throw a bunch of shit at me cause you wont even accept anything other than your own opinion
I'm quite fine with the former
Ive yet to be a fanboy for any hardware or software company
If there was anything Id fanboy over, it would be my deskmat
And even at that, its still not the greatest product ever either.
So really, whatever advantage or leg up or pedantic avenue you think you have over me is false
I'd be quite happy to get some cheaper processing power again, especially in the graphics card section but until its there, its not there
And my idk how many gens outdated hardware does the job for now
It'll survive another gen or two of new releases
depending how sq42 plays for me is when i'll upgrade
I expect it to run quite well on hardware that can run SC in a playable fashion
i feel like performance gains you'd expect from it playing sc pu will be lost by chris roberts epic star wars space battle scenes
Possibly
remember in that sq42 play demo even tho it was singleplayer it was still running at like teen frames
Not blindly defending them, but that was before OCS
and I'm guessing more stuff that helped out with performance
i know what you mean but alot of the stuff back then was server side, sq42 had tonnes more geometry and animations on screen most of the time than pu normally has
er the demo did
and effects like fog/clouds/etc etc
*alot of the performance issues back then (and still now really)
Honestly, still expect it to be somewhat bad fps wise
maybe like 70-80 average on release, but hopefully they pull some black magic and it ends up being fine
even better now that the new ryzens are coming out
Fingers crossed
SSOCS will help
plus, if you get server meshing after that, reminder that such a shard only needs to keep track of a small set of space, not the whole system as right now
i didn't know SSOCS was that important until yesterday when i read that servers had to keep everything loaded and already had their memory capped and they can't add microcorp without it
@magic sinew I get you on the ddr3, but intel CPU > AMD cpu
Im waiting for my 5820k to break at some point
No, just your methodology of thinking is
Nah
Its not bad because its intel
Its bad because its been subject of 3 meltdowns so far
Hmm
And not one of them has been good for business
On the other hand, its 35 days till Ryzen gen 3
That can't even run the latest Minecraft
A month of waiting for a gen 3 Ryzen doesnt sound too bad
Or even just a month for some bundles/deals/price drops
So objectively, its better to wait and get some fairly new parts rather than 6+ year old hardware that may or may not be working as well as anything similar on the market
y’all bad
@errant cradle ^

Why not have a slow channel for org ads allowing 1 per day so we can see what groups are actually active?
We used to, #promo
Had to delete it because people couldn’t follow simple rules, and our moderation logs mostly came from that channel
like what?
Deleting it and mirroring the subreddit rules was the best thing we ever did
Posting discord links, posting rsi links. You had to put your orgs description and put “dm me for more details”
Super simple stuff
what did people do?
You want a list?
We currently have 1,039 mod logs atm I think, about 350 of those are from org related offenses
Back when #promo was still around
- Terrible logos
Terrible logos like offensive?
The worst offense were orgs bumping other people’s posts out of view
Was just about to say that lol
this pefore slowmode was a thing?
If someone posted their org ad, someone would post theirs like 30sec after so theirs would show up first
Straight fucking cancer
It gave cancer cancer
Maybe like the same 6 orgs posting over and over
I've seen success in allowing 1 post/day. Ya there may be bad posts but you're mods.. You can't just not allow org/community promotion because it causes work
In the end we just decided to mirror the subreddit 1:1
Basically how it should have been from the beginning
We did try 1 post a day
That was the last adjustment we made before deleting the channel
Literally the last straw
Very cute Aereon
Aereon stop being a cunt
Funny because I used to be the same way
The hawx start hammering me down lol
So I’m a semi hypocrite
Also it’s a lot less work than before
Im currently in the middle of an identity shift
Someone posts org stuff, we delete it and send them a warn or kick
Less than 10sec
Oh yeah, there was also the fact that no one really used it
Nope
So it was mostly just one-upsmanship and spam
Err, used it to find a new org consistently*
I have folders for the 4-5 orgs that used it regularly
Where is a good place to grow or advertise an org with a purpose?
The other subs
r/starcitizen_guilds
Is like the only main one I think
Or befriending people in game and joining their orgs that way
Cool, thanks
3 warns and a ban while I was at work, fun stuff
The assertion that Call of Duty Modern warfare should not ship with controversial, thought-provoking scenarios and decisions is complete idiocy. To SPEAK is ...
You're welcome guys for getting #promo deleted

guild recruitment forums/channels/sections really are cancer. and so often are the guilds that push them like it's their actual real life job or something
recruit threads are sometimes hilarious tho when some nobody guild like mine starts offending people somehow again and they get all mad and start threatening to griief us out of some heavily instance little to no world pvp game
:D
Please submit your CV and application at our absolutely shitty guildlaunch website
pls go through our six hour long 50 step interview application vettting process. pls be prepared to submit proof of your vadayo gaem achievements. pls submit photo id and passport as well
we will then list your achievements from other guilds in our recruit spam for years after you've left our guild because we expected guys like you to carry us
Please follow this procedure in discord
Please follow this structure that allows me to have ultimate power
also don't forget the hollywood movie military style ranks,
Ranks can be a good thing, provided you don't make a 10 men org led by an High Admiral or such nonsense. If the lead alt+F4's out of the game, the ranks determine a line of succession on who is now lead, removing confusion if you're busy in the Verse
i love when i join a guild and half the member ship is officers tho :D
Thing is, organizational structure is a requirement to remove confusion and provide clarity
most org structures only add confusion and remove clarity
What I've learned is that a structure in an org for something like SC needs to provide users options to be malleable; do this at this moment, do that at that moment.
i just think people tend to over do it :P
A lot of orgs try to be fair to one and all and be democratic af, so the group becomes rife with indecision and petty domination through fiefdoms. I prefer to think the way to go is that officers lead from the back, handling petty things for everyone so the men can play, but also that if the officers decide to do X that the men should follow orders.
you know, ''hey, officer makes sure everything is arranged and does boring stuff''
eh everyone has their own organizational style
can't say i've seen many democratic guilds in mmorpg's/online gaming tho
light weight relaxed sometimes. sometimes officer/guild master being exasperated and telling the core group to figure it out themselves sort of thing but
but generally they aren't democratic
true. I want to try out a method where people can go laissez-faire or ''strict militaristic'' based on what they want to do
i don't think they're really thought that far
even if they've got grand ambitions and 20 military movie ranks to move up through
most guilds/orgs are really just a group of friends gaming together really
I mean, if you're gonna do a difficult mission deep in Vanduul space you want someone who can get things done and if you run cargo from ArcCorp to Hurston it may be a bit different
true
i feel it's a worse sin to forget that people gaming with are friends than to be disorganized tbh
It also depends on size. I mean. we're 200 men strong, so just lacking any structure or way for people to climb up based on performance means anarchy
right
it's really difficult to find a good balance
i liked when my 40-60 people were active in games and i had 3-6 leadership role people supporting my leadership adn the membership in general
For example; if you're doing a mining run with escorts, you don't want the miners to stray off too far, yet also give them leeway to mine the rocks the way they see fit
right, people have to learn how to play as a team,
and adapt to teh conditions of a giving game or activity within a game
We're 200 men with 10 officers
Most of those 200 are inactive though... you know ''wait until the PTU is further in development''
i'd probably have at least a few sub officer leadership people, people who don't want to commit to officership but when they are around they command respect and often find themselves leading groups/intitatives/taking the initiative etc
ahh yeah true
i only count active members
tho i like having an open door policy on membership
which used to be unusual at one point, but idk about nowadays
yeah lol
people used to get really upset about "guild loyalty"
lol
So, most of our current time is getting a confederacy of orgs working, so active folk can do casual mining cargo runs and the like without no one being online.
And for me to get the bot in good order
see #imadethis
i remember having this long ass DM convo with former clan leader in l2 about loyalty and betrayal cuz i joined a different clan cuz he wasn't reliab;le for exp
yeah
my guild doesn't really play sc. yet at least. they actually hate when i talk about it/ so just me and a couple guys now and then doing odd funsies things and me trying to teach guys who play once a month how to survive in a dogfight :D
oh yeah fiefdoms are the worst
we also play Minecraft and such
it's like reinforcing the worst of clique behaviour
muh High School dramatics
everyone in my community is busy with irl now. so mostly it's talking about weed and gettin drunk on the weekend if people aren't too stressed out from work/school/romance/etc
but we make time for each other despite being busy irl and sometimes for games too. so that's nice. you got anice friend circle when kind of thing. even if it dosn't make for the best mmo pvp fighting force :D
Same thing. Real life takes precedence
yeah
in the end i just try to make the experience fun and as unfrustrating as possible for my guys when they have time, since i've got alot of free time. and that's about the best i can do. doesn't always work, whiich is why they refuse to play sc with me until some magical unknown date in teh future :D
god activating cubase is a pain
Didnt cubase age pretty poorly?
You cant compare audacity to cubase wtf
audicity is good for what audicity does, but it in no way compares to a proper DAW for music production
the past some years i used reaper for various things, which is annoying to use but relatively cheap, if basic. got into maschine i guess almost a couple years ago now and been a learning experience but it's great... but has limitations in several areas i am hoping to overcome with a 2nd daw. i selected cubase elements because cubase is something my collab partners work with as well and seems to work well enough with NI products, which i am heavily invested in.
Most every DAW that deserves to call itself that works well enough as a VST host for NI
turns out tho with my voice meeter set up i need a physical audio interface unit (which i need down the road anyway as i prepare for a future project) for the driver or w/.e stuff so it's just a pain rn
Reaper is just too complex to keep trying to be a tracker
yeah reaper is a bit of an oddball
Your voice what?
but it's not suited to what i want to use the DAW for anyway, and it's becoming cumbersome in my collaborations
voice meeter banama
bamama
w/e i can't type lol
whats that
umm its to split audio channels for streaming basically
so i exclude all my voice comms from my streams and videos
I see
but i could add them selectively
anyways i could use cubase with maschine now, but i'm not there yet, and so i'm moving forward the audio interface unit to handle it, which nicely brings my kaosilator into the mix
i could get that yes
but i need the audio interface in teh future anyway
planning on getting a monologue
yeah always good to have
Kinda silly they put interfaces into midi controllers/synths now
I got an m-audio venom with an audio interface and a dedicated audio interface
idk that the synth is a midi controller
but the kaosilator is kidn of one
even in terms of what it does on it's own
and ofc maschine hardware is just a DRMed more or less midi controller
Isnt kaossilator just that toy version of the proper kaoss pads?
theis is the kaostilator pro +
it's got like 255 sound banks + some recording and what not stuff
oh wait yea I actually have that one lol
adn a vocolader but that's broken on mine
it's cool
i like that kind of interface in an instrument
i started off 20 years ago with a dr sample so...
:D
I dont really like it but man its easy to make a quick and decent improv with
no it's absolutely terrible
we used it for like 3 songs on one album, and a made terrible demo album with it
and it's been rotting since
aw
but i busted out the stylophone and made a song with that recently so i'm pulling it back out now that i'm getting the behringer lol
i mean it was great for learnign with
it was a huge learnign experience, worth every penny i spent
I regret the purchase
maschine has been a better value
But
exactly
I rarely ever record anything I make anyway
i record and release pretty much everything i do except mouth noises and singing i do in the kitchen
lol
lol
I dont have the confidence to produce a proper track so I just play stuff as it comes to me and by the time I realize it sounds almost ok its too late to fire up all the recording stuff
but eh its fun anyway
If we're still talking about sound gear. I went overboard.
I run a Creative AE-5 to a Clarett 8Pre (best independent metering on an interface imo) then I bounce a TOS from the clarett to a Steel Series transmitter for a headphone option (or the HD-25's for quick monitoring).
Tbh the only reason i have a 20 out interface is for throwing sounds around with dante. I can remotely access my PC upstairs and play tracks to my system in my living room or my surround system for my TV etc.
that's fair succulent
in general it's pretty low chance of getting enough of an audience to make any appreciable money/money spent on it back so the main thing is to make the music for yourself always no matter what your style is. i just have a thing for releasing everything as i go along even different WIP iterations etc and some times bare bones pieces for free use by others if they snag the download in time
i have fun making music with a few friends and that's worth every bit of it, plus i get the enjoyment of making the music no one else makes that i wanna listen to, which is A+ even if no one else likes it :D

Anyone here play Ark?
I did
for a while
good grief. clan relations there were so overly dramatic, backstabbery and just plain vile.
it made me quit the game altogether
Yeah I don't do official servers anymore
But ik they just released a new map
And was wondering how it was and if I should use it for my unofficial ark server
I have it for PS4
I'm disappointed in the complete change between Doom 4 and Doom Eternal

i can just hear the clunk of pressing a key
That's some serious #hackerman going on in that picture.
what do u think will there be modules that makes the caterpillar stronger than the final version of the merchantman?
Probably not
If you owned an Idris name x3 ships you would keep inside it's hanger?
- Razor Ex
- Eclipse
- Super Hornet
- Sabre
Atleast that's what i'm thinkin
890 Kraken and Javelin 😛
Honestly I'm hoping that merchantman keeps the inner turrets for shop protection
Generally I'd also like the inner kiosks to have a tax per sale automatically credited or something
@lyric ravine as many arrows as you can fit there
@lyric ravine A question of personal preference. On my Idris it would be three Sabre's ... but I do own one and I only have one Sabre 😄 ( one Eclipse, one Super Hornet, ... )
If you have to plan it that way now, there are also other players with ships.
how do i switch control from assist to gimbal?
R
ok thx
Dose anyone voice I wanted to talk about ships I have a 600 I but mite melt it or go bigger
It’s the 475 one
Is that the only ship you have?
Yeah that uh, I can't say that's a very good fleet lol
True
I want to get something that a lot of uec in game don’t want to use my lti on a cheap ship
You'd be better off grabbing several cheaper things until you put more $ in. If you planned too
But with rentals and such coming.
I can put more money in
True
The main issue is even a cutlass, for $375 cheaper holds 6 UEC more than the 600i
So if you got it for cargo, it's beat by a longshot
If you got it for combat... just... why?
Only thing it really does right now is sit there and be pretty
I like the warden
Those will likely go on sale for 3.6
Or a maybe a hull c or benu Merchmam
Nah man
Gotta go for one of these
yeah I've got one of those, it's quite nice but I never use the tilt thing. The drivers are really nice for it and if you practice using all the buttons they can come in handy, but you need to force yourself to use them to get practice.
Never thought someone would unironically support using that amalgamation, but alright then 
It looks really dumb, but its probably one of the most functional mice Ive seen with so many layered inputs
I enjoy using a button immediately to the left of the left mouse button as middle mouse click, so I don't need to use the mouse wheel to click. It's such a massive help. Opening new tabs and closing tabs for example.
Being able to change DPI and profiles easily is quite zesty.
Ye
How much is the mouse?
Oh yep, just as expensive as launch
$230 before tax
I dunno, I might get it for my next setup or something
i wish i had a kot of money to spend on this gane
got the urge to make monies? how much cargo room you gots?
600i with gimbled gatling 3x s4 its pretty good at ratting
However any player you encounter in a fighter will fly circles around you
at least in the cutlass I feel like I have a chance
the Lexip mouse looks pretty nice actually
the Z looks like a rejected prototype of my Roccat Tyon
oh okay the tilt function is pretty cool
Alright so i gotta bring this up
Why the fuck does this company (CIG) think it's a good idea to only release fully polished items into the game? They keep reworking these ships over and over doing the same work 20 times because to make gameplay impacting adjustments to ships (changes) they have to completely redesign an asset that's already had 5+ people touch it and polish
They haven't established heirarchies of ships and balance of combat yet, but they only release fully finished ships, and nobody knows how it will balance?
It's so ass backward and stupid, there is a REASON the rest of the whole gaming industry makes low poly stuff and balance it FIRST, figure out the problems of the basic design blocking, test it in combat, balance it, THEN polish it.. Not just stick to some JPEG an artist made 8 years ago because they said they would
I also feel like the time spent on the connie and snub fighter parasite ship setup is a total waste of resources and a fantasy gameplay element that will be useful in real gameplay like .001% of the time when it's actually done. The idea is cooler then the reality, just like every parasite ship in real life ever attempted by the airforce. Connie pilots pay so dearly for the weight and bulk of that snub fighter being attached to their ship that it makes it unmaneuverable. It's a great ship to have if u actually plan on getting destroyed and narrowly escaping.
I think the game needs more combat loops and reasons to fight over areas in ships right now desperately, and needs more of each class. The Vanguard Warden needs another heavy fighter ship to counter the Vanguard Warden. And that ship needs one to counter it. 3 of everything with distinct feels and plausible gameplay uses. Rock paper scissors combat please. Allow players choices in how they fight and make it a fun combat sandbox soon
Also, when piracy?
Tell me when the fuckin piracy is going to be in the game already
Piracy+Server meshing would give me a reason to fire this game up, although I feel like maybe there is an underlying financial motive to not implement server meshing due to the cost of running meshed servers
Until SC is fully released I predict we will see very weak server populations for cost savings.
if something gets reworked 20 times is it really "fully polished"?
iteration is obviously necessary, especially when so much of the game's development and tech is still in R&D
i partially agree with you though, that they often tend to put the cart before the horse by releasing something that seems really cool in the concept phase, but won't make much sense in actual gameplay because hey, that's how the game gets funded
Hey can the Kraken hold ships on top?
yes
Drake has thrown out the rule book to redefine private-use capital-class ships, attack carriers, and the very nature of personal freedom. The Kraken is the r...
minute 1:45
hell even the thumbnail. can see ships on top
it's a carrier
Sweeeet, How is that suppose to work in space? Wouldn't all the crafts get thrown off as soon as you hit hyper drive?
will function like other ports where they get locked to the pad
need enough force to push a ship off a pad
think of a magnetic lock
Okay, sounds cool.
if i got a package that includes lifetime insurance, will all ships in my hangar have LTI or only the ships in this package?
Only the ship(s) listed in the individual pledge
ok thx
That's not really a valid comparison
Wouldn't the Idris K basically blow giant holes into the polaris?
Same with the Idris M.
the polaris could beat a idris with some ingenuity, and maybe some more ships, but generally all else being equal, the idris will win.
The Polaris should be able to engage from outside of the S10 gun range.
it'll be interesting to see what the engagement distances are on the cap ships
the hammerhead is visible from 20-30km out
I'll be intrested in seeing what the final scanner will look like, as I assume it'll give you the ability to scan sections or the entire solar system, might be intresting to see how ships will show up on that
scanner is one thing, idk what the design docs look like for ir/heat sigs and passive scans but they certainly seem to be going with what's there and tuning it at times
i think the active scan stuff will morphe
depending on size/class of scanner
there's also some neat things they've teased in game
there's going to be long range scanners at some point
hey guys looking for a good fighter for bounties RN, currently have a Ghost Hornet, looking at the gladius/arrow/350r any advice?
For bounties on 3.5.1 any fighter will do
AI is so braindead that ship with most DPS will be fastest
If weapon mount is available in PU hornet ghost will have most dps but I am pretty sure people have said its not available
3.6 already in PTU? Or any ETA on it?
@hollow sedge https://gyazo.com/b67fc02e4d3dabd32602c8f27caf8025
i think its been 2 days since evo
So at least 3-5 weeks to 3.6 in PU, right?
maybe couldnt say
minimum is 1 week Evo + 1 week Concierge+Subs + 1 week all = so at least 3 weeks
Well I mean every time except 3.5 it’s last day of the quarter
When it comes to quarterly patches
And 3.5 was ptu all on the last day of the quarter
However considering it’s June 27th and we’re missing out on features and still on evo
It’s definitely not really gonna hit the quarterly date
yep prob around 15 days or so tell its on live servers
😭
Mission sharing, when?
There is no firm date set but they have confirmed that they are working on it
It is not going to be in 3.6 or 3.7
How to push a feature? Seems like a really important part of being able to enjoy SC with friends
Not even 3.7? Oof
True but there are loads of important features that are still missing
There are so many things missing, that even if Mission Sharing was in. You would probably still be here asking why something else isn't in the game yet. Games be like that when they aren't remotely close to being finished
But I agree. I am looking forward to game mechanics for two or more players
Yeah me too. I emailed CIG asking them when mission sharing was going to be a few months ago
they told me they didn't know
It's really difficult to enjoy the game alone. It's a bit better with friends but it's hard to justify a 875 payout mission for 2 players
That's like min. Ofcourse you can do 8k missions
I have sort of enjoyed doing chilled missions in 3.5.1
but I hadn;'t done missions for ages before that
I fell through the planet yesterday 20 steps from delivering a package that took 20 min to get
Neat
Yeah presumably they are gonna try to make the planets solid
well the solid planets solid
That would be neat
First time I'm hearing this
I know that with everyday you get better n know more
But things still feel too confusing
I barely know where my fuel is
We can't continue to live like this
Or how to control ship overheating
The ship overheating is prettyy tiresome huh
Or how to zoom into the control panels and scroll down the list same time
Cause ATM I press f to zoom with scroll wheeel
oh yeah when it scorlls out as you are scrolling down
Then u use scroll wheel to go down the list of components
Right it scrolls the fuck out
Oh there is one there huh
Took me like over a year to even try that
I saw it there and was still like "fuck you, I shouldmn't have to"
And the names of each component... If you don't know it's a cooler or shield by heart it's just component names


👏
