ProTip If you want daylight 24/7 fly to OM-1 orbital marker and dive down to the surface. It is always daylight under that marker
I do have a cutty red would that still work?
It might, it will be very tight. I think it is too small. You'll have to search on that one
okay no problem I will do the black for now
Tight = scary in SC with the ROC
like kabooom scary XD?
Pull it out on the tarmat and the spawn a new one
Like hopping into a car with an object in GTA 5 scary
that is not good haha
Also, Never Ever Stow your ship at an outpost on the moon
I do have a andromeda with full cargo bay would that fit a ROC?
Yes
nice saving 45k for the rental
ROC is also only 172K to buy at New Deal
later you can also upgrade the components, but the jury is out on the true value of doing that
don't have enough to buy one just yet but will do that so I don't have to keep renting one
4k rental is pretty nice. Especially when you can earn 50x that back in one trip
potentially
Don't forget the Pembroke Armor ... hadinite spawns in super hot areas, need Pembroke to survive
ok, past my bed time. DM or tag me if you have other questions. Or ask other members here. A lot of the guys have tons of experience and offer good advice.
thanks again have a good one
so for anyone interested, the Roc -DS will fit in the max with plenty of room to spare, can get maybe 2 in there
new to delivery since the bunkers are scuffed. any tips on how to rank up fast and get these 500k/hr hauls?
is ranking up cargo a thing?
is delivery the same thing as cargo?
I dont think so, delivery missions afaik are just going and picking up boxes from stations and taking them to another, cargo hauling is going and buying cargo and selling it somewhere else
Equip a Lancet Mh1 Mining laser and mine Quantanium
Everything else is not worth it
gotcha! thx! im in a warlcok... is that too small for any decent cargo?
I fit a roc-ds and ursa
It will def fit 2
What are the best modules to go along with a lancet?
im still learning, but i think you start with surge
surge you use if your lancet isnt doing enough damage to the rock
usually on rocks with a mass of 4800+
brandt you use if the rock is unstable which makes the laser harder to keep in the optimum zone
is stampede any good?
yes sir
use it with a surge for the really big rocks
thats my usual combo
but a life line is recomended until you get some experience with mining quant so you dont blow yourself up
you use them at your discretion
you kinda get a feel for it as you continue mining
alr tysm
no problem
if you look in the pinned comments theres some guides on how to mine find quant etc
cross's guides helped me out when i was picking mining up
can you collect hadanite with the prospector?
No
ok
is prospector too OP?
I just spent about and hour and a half mining an almost full cargo of hadenite. Drank water and forgot the helmet. No death marker so I cant find it. Goodbye future Cutlass. Im gonna go sit in a corner honestly. The one time game doesnt fail me, i do smh
I have never once been able to recover my body after a death since they implemented it. either I have no marker or the marker is in the center of the star ๐
Felt like shit. Think im gonna go do delivery and give up becoming rich
Yeah ive only been playing for 5 days and ive seen the death mark other times when i didnt need it
any way to make the ROC mine faster
I've see the death marker a couple times, but when i got there, no body.
mostly bunkers, heh
yeah if you die in a bunker it's gone. I've even died and I was in a party and they WATCHED my body disappear before I could get back lol
about as bad on the 890j mission
Had a same thing happen, that's why I always do a helmet check when leaving for vaccum. Even if I was in the inventory just seconds ago. Make it a habit, never suffocate again.
You're right. I always do but this time i was just excited that i made a full cargo first time and it was solo. I quit the game so fast, my GPU temp couldnt believe it
the other day, I walked out, realized I was choking, and managed to get my helmet on with like a second to spare
lucky dude. I was in the ROC and couldnt do anything ๐ฆ
Yeah, it's really crushing. Especially when a barrage of gamebreaking bugs makes your life so damn hard and then this one singular time everything works you fuck up. I haven't played for a bit after that
Same here. I dont have the morale anymore
To be honest, with servers shitting the bed and constant money rollbacks it's not worth the nerves. There are better games to play in the meantime. Hopefully Invictus won't be a similar shitshow
Do you mean the rollbacks at patch? A bit ago, I don't think they did those money rollbacks for a long while.
mmm sweet sweet hadanite ๐
where is it
People are losing massive amounts of money since Saturday. I've been at 700k myself and landed at 140k
Huh. Yesterday I had logged out at Lorville, and found myself back at CRU-L1, which I had last been two sessions before. I didn't lose any auec though.
Someone in chat said they were having the same thing, but losing credits
Yeah, some in this disc lost millions
that's insane
it's taken me almost two weeks to get up to 800k
that's probably months kf progress lost
Well, there's a lot of money glitching going on, there are people sitting on hundreds of mil in cash
But money doesn't just dissapear from those who used glitches
Any of your favorites? I'd love to get a carrack. Everything will be reset with Invictus anyways
wait are these money glitches banned
most likely, I always forget this is a mmo
you hardly see another player besides in chat
if I had a dollar for each time I forgot my helmet, I would be a very rich man. I can 100% ID with this.
Only one's character and location is reset with a new patch. As a rule they do no do full game wipes except on major changes. 3.15 was the first wipe they had done in almost two years.
I'm guessing they'll do a full reset with 3.18? The cargo refractor?
Can anyone else confirm that repairing ROC's on platinum pads does nothing? They don't take the money when you click repair and components don't get repaired?
Workaround is just claim a new one ofc but meh
im planning to rent prospector or ROC which one you guys recommend
And this is what happens if you press the cruise button by mistake ๐
Any crash you can walk away from is a success!
Made that mistake in my Red yesterday, forgetting how unstable the Cutlass is
Lost my front wings and one engine
Had to get someone to come get me
yeah...and erm, i might have gotten killed anyway...boosting up, put me into a crazy spin that made me grey out and i paniced ALT-F4 ๐
relogging now to check ๐
Not waking up in scrubs! Victory!
getting rid of all that pesky extra weight, good idea ๐
best loadout for beginner solo prospector quant mining?
Lancet mining head, could got for an Atlas Qt drive, but not necesary
whats the best trading route for someone whos new and has little credit?
Trading doesnt make u much if u dont have a big ship mate and a bit of money
i have the cutless just dont have the credits to buy big bulk

Best of luck mate
thank you
Whatโs the best place for quantanium?
that's always a guessing game and speculation. I think the main reason for the reset for 3.15 was everyone was done with how things were. I had accumulated over 800M aUEC, etc. And game and playing sort of got stale. There is a certain amount of fun to go from Zero to Hero again. I could see a wipe for 3.18, but I'm thinking that Alpha 4.x just might be this year. Then we will see that happen then.
i don't think there's even a card for 4.0. I think I've only seen 3.17 - 3.19
Oh yes, 3.17 - 3.20
I'm not confident on this aspect yet. One thing you can do is if you look at the ship's components in the MFD and if any of them have damage, then try a repair and see if it goes away. I'm thinking it doesn't work. But a claim for the ROC is only 2 minutes, so I normally roll it out on the ground and then go grab another one. ProTip Never claim your ROC when the old one is still in your ship. It's not pretty.
there's not even release goals yet for 3.19
there never is, that's a surprise upgrade
but the cargo refractor,,,,
mass transport of goods for other players will be possible
They updated one for 3.19?
let's say you've only got a hull a, but you've got hundreds of credits to use for hauling. you could spend time shuttling 64 cargo back and forth, or you can offload your cargo to a friend with a caterpillar or a Hercules, and shuttle a lot more cargo. you would have to go from surface to orbit a lot, to save stress on the tractor beams. and once your friend with the big cargo ship gets to it's destination, they can release your cargo from their decks one hull a at a time
I'm hoping that will be possible. I would also like more physicalized cargo. so if you put food in the ships local storage, it will appear in fridges and drawers. dropping armour or weapons will fill slot, or even as boxes along the ground
inventory space would have to be tweaked greatly
I certainly can see a wipe for Cargo Refactor implantation. This effort touches every single aspect of the game. They've been working on it for over a year (I think 18mths). I can see (speculating) this being rolled out with limited server meshing and also Pyro and all this bundled as Alpha 4
I wonder what the jump points will be like
I've heard it saying it'll use your ship fuel
No, the mdf still had the damage when i checked trying the repair. The claim is like 10 seconds so not like OMG, but the old one need to get out first yeah
which I find useless, because a Reliant can barely get from planet to planet.
Why don't the jump points have their own fuel? Also, with the way the quantum animation looks, it seems like the ships can just warp whenever they want. They can just go that fast, but the quantum fuel is more like a radiation shield. The quantum engine is what makes it go fast, but the quantum fuel is what protects it from the speed. Like an inertia dampener, and a micro roid shield
Also those elevators go insanely fast. 100s/m a second. that's some insane inertia dampening
LOL, I learned the hard way. I ended up having to reclaim my ship to get the ROC carcass out of it ๐ฆ
I shot mine to smithereens and tractored the cargobox that i got out of it ๐
Because my hadinite!
Look at a different QT engine other than stock. You can greatly increase your range and speed
Must protect the hadinite!!
Still had to fucking single move each gem to backpack when sellling cause that crate wasn't detected in cutty :\
individual crates can be detected in ships?
yes, they should be able to
Now since they are adding loot, things might change a little. I'm not sure if the loot/gems/etc needs to be in inventory or if they can be sold straight from ship. I think with the new stuff, selling from ship should be good
This wasn't a regular cargo crate size, the one from the ROC wreck was bigger, interactable and lootable
and only movable by tractor beam
that probably means it was catagorized as loot instead of "inventory" per se
interesting scenario for sure. I'm wondering if different rules for gems as opposed to amour, guns, etc
shoot your roc and see ๐
wouldn't that generate a crime stat?
Anyone know what the best set up is for the mole? What mining lasers to get and such
Whatโs the best place to mine for quant
The setup for MOLE is the same for Prospector. There are some pinned guides at the top. Short of it is Lancet laser head. Then the Surge, Stampede and a few other options for the third slot.
Two primary places: Lyria and Aaron's Halo. The Halo has 8 bands to search in. I will attach a document for reference.
I don't think so? I mean i didn't get anything, all it said was friendly fire warning. I mean i own it!
Shooting your own ROC doesn't create a Crimestat. Tried a few days ago to get a crate. ... worked perfectly. Just learned that Defender doesn't like those crates and blew up 20 seconds after start 
Shooting your own ships doesn't generate a crimestat
You can make 2SCU boxes by putting 2 Novikov undersuits inside the ship
you will always get the friendly fire warning it wont do anything
I loose my ships too frequently to make boxes They sadly don't persist through claims. ๐คฃ
I lost my ROC on Aberdeen and I dont know how to find it again. Can somebody tell how to find it?
Brand new baby here, Aurora MR (well aware I need an upgrade) but for now, how do I utilize the under storage?
It is not fully implemented. The cargo just works virtually
ie you won't see the cargo but you can still use that cargo space
Great. Just purchase it and it should be placed on the ship?
Yep
if there is not a beacon, then it is gone.
You guys are shooting your ship but can't you just self destruct them? (BTW I can't get self destruct working on pretty much any ship)
you can reclaim it, but unfortunately there will be not gems in it
This for the ROC vehicle, not one's main ride to get off the planet ๐
I don't think the ROC has a self-destruct
The conversation about shooting your ship was about creating 1 SCU crates wasn't it?
Or 2
Yup. If you put 2 large backpacks in your ship, fly it out of armistice and then back space. Claim the ship, take out your actual ship, go and destroy your old one and boom, SCU box is spawned
Do it with two Pembroke suits and get a 2 SCU crate.
Ah, self destruct and then no crate I see.
Does that work?
And is it the same size as the 1SCU?
Also self destruct has a non-zero chance of killing you before you get to a safe distance which shooting it does not
Yh, I always find it's easier to just take off your undersuit and get killed by space
Yes that is how you kill yourself then respawn and get another ship to destroy the one you abandoned just outside the armistice zone.
I have a Taurus, what should I trade? Laranite?
Yup. Great fun. Managed to squeeze like 6 of them into my 400i after killing my Titan like, 5 times (forgot the bags in one of them)
Anyone need a scout?
Also for the 1 SCU crate, you can use a rover to get the same result. And I only use one large backpack
I've also found one backpack is enough
Horizon backpack is enough for 1 SCU but I seem to recall using one that did not. I tend to use two plus add my undersuit and helmet before walking off the ramp to die.
im finding absolutely no quant on lyria
I can scout for you
Basically I'll fly around Lyria, find Quant, check it and see if it's worth it, and if it is, I let you know and you come down
@pure frost
What ore is the best to mine that isn't quant
Ship?
Quant is the best. Hands down. Next is Laranite
Okay.
How to do that, I haven't done it before due to being new @weak hound cant find the option in trhe f1 menu
What's your in game name
Musicburger
Ok but I don't have a mic.
That's fine
Also, if you need help mining, lemme know. I have a MOLE
What is the best spot to mine quantinium?
Lyria
I can scout for you if you'd like
Basically I'll go down and find the Quant for you, and you just come down and mine it
I don't wanna waste your time dude, I'm new so it takes longer for me.
It doesn't bother me at all
I enjoy being helpful
So it's not a waste of time to me
Everyone starts somewhere
Okay.
How much does the mole cost @weak hound
5.1 million
BUT you can make that back in a matter of a couple hours if you have a good scout and good rocks
@hollow sedge we ready?
I just found a group and Iโm trying to save up to grab one. I have a prospector
Nice
Does it have 3 lasers and a driver
Yep
So a crew of 4?
Cool thank you. Where do you buy the mole?
Lorville, New Deal, Hurston
What does the copilot do? Lol
No clue XD
Don't think there's really a point to Copilot
Just a seat
With the free fry event I can use the mole? Even if I already have the game?
Mole won't be available for free during the event
Not for Invictus
How sure are we they are wiping refinery work orders?
What do you need on prospector to mine quant?
Lancet heads and Surge Modules
is there anyway ingame to fix the no rock scan bug atm?
How long do you have from you mine quantinium till the ship explodes?
14min
Thats intresting haha
Can I sell them at a prosessing facility?
you can, but refining nets more
15 min
Got no Transport ship.
Take it to Arc L1, refine, wait and sell
i found a rock spawn of 9, but cannot scan

Gotta grind for a transport ship first or I cant move the refined stuff.
Don't bother rn, refinery will be wiped Friday
bc of invictus?
Ye
So sell it all unrefined Untill Friday?
What๐ฅฒ
Don't you need a transport ship to move refined materials?
So i can sell my transport ship haja
if a ship has cargo cap you can drop it in there, maybe not all of it, but some?
Only got a mining ship with no cargo space so yeah.
Whatโs the next best thing after quant?
Isn't Quant the best thing?
Where you find that?
uexcorp.space/mining
only refinery
Okay.
that link i typed is what i use for mining and other stuff for profit
how is bexalite better than laranite wtf
simce when
i stop playing for 2 months
This i found ๐ฌ
Thx
anyone looking for 3 handsome mole workers?
Sorry, I only take ugly crew on my mole
oh wow that's handy
so Orcs, Trolls and Goblins only?
DA ORINJ WUNZ MINES BETTA!
To what?
My game crashed, rip.
I have 3 of the c3 modules, 1 lancet so I just need to buy the QT.
whats the best cargo to grab
Yeah, shocker...
is there a hotkey to drop quantanium
i disables your engines and drops you fast
huh
today. it's from the Letter from the Chairman
Roberts Space Industries is the official go-to website for all news about Star Citizen and Squadron 42. It also hosts the online store for game items and merch, as well as all the community tools used by our fans.
freaking awesome read after Chris' input, it real juicy stuff starts at Road to 4.0
reading it now
I know there will many more pitfalls and bumps in the road forward but this vision has me totally jazzed like nothing else I've had with this game to this date.
@blazing cedar @agile shard thank you both for all your help. i am in
I tell myself again and again, don't mine on hills...but do i listen? No... i go SHINY and then...sadness.
So, does anyone have any tips for scanning for quant out in the halo? I've been reducing my radar ping angle and nothing comes back except for at 360 and 180 degrees
Or do you just have to rollup on every rock you find?
I seem to have the best luck heading in towards the star, and I scan pretty much everything in that direction
I normally fly uncoupled and then pass by the ping returns I get. You can set an angle from the star where all the asteroids are max lit up and then zoom your view way in to the side. From here you can slowly rotate your ship and look for clusters of asteroids. Believe it or not, you can spot asteroids way further than the ping can detect. I will see if I can find a video on the technique. You will want to zoon near a spot you know on the HUD so that when you snap back to normal view you will know which way to go.
The trick is to not crack more than 3 rocks before going to the valley and scooping them up. If you crack too many your frames will begin to drop massively and it will be difficult to go collect them
yeah that's not the issue...well that is an issue as well, but livable, the main issue is the scatter ALL OVER the place
Ok, I did that and had a good result of them being in the same general area.
yeah no it took me...hmm yueah i think you pinged me just when i was about done so discord says that was 12 minutes picking up stuff ๐
How do I change my scanner settings?
Granted that was one of the worse scatters i've had
ok guys, i just wanted to make sure, i have to earn 60k with bounties, then i need to hire a cutlass black and a rock mining car, i have 24 hours to mind gems so that i can sell, i need to earn 3 mil and buy a prospector, then i need to get a upgraded laser, a stampedge module and surge module as well as the mh 1 bit, then go for raw matter, to earn another 3 mil, so i can buy a hercules c2 to transport refined ore?
40k for the cutty and roc combo iirc
Rest idk, working on the prospector part myself, heh, but not gonna take 1 day unless you're always on and\or alot better then my scatterbrained mining ๐
mouse wheel and "<" ">"
2 mil for the prospector and 5 mil for the c2
but yea
you can rent a cutty black at cargo stations like L3 or L4 crus or Hur for 28k which is a bit cheaper than refinery stations L1 or L2
eh? this says prices are the same
And watch out if you want to do 3 day rental...UI showed transaction cost of 30 days once for me
I would only rent for a day at a time, if you get lucky like most the rental will stay in your inventory and be usable for ever...
or patch day
are gems the best thing to grab to earn the first 3 mil for the prospector, some people in the comments on youtubes aid they only made 350k in a day of minding rock gems
I have a prospector in now that I rented a week ago shows -10 hours left and still fully functional
just dont crash it cause you can t claim it
Is the prospector the best mining ship if you do it solo?
You can make much more than that mining gems with ROC. Full ROC load is about 220k, and you can get it in around 1-2h on Aberdeen
any areas on aberdeen you suggest?
I just drop by Nordgard to pick up the ROC and then fly in a random direction from there. Plenty of Hadanite rocks in clusters from 2-3 up to like 9
All you gotta pay attention to is your scanner, ping it often and if you see a new contact pop up at 2,5km, that's a ROC rock. If it pops up over that distance, it's most likely a prospector rock. Then get close, see if it's really hadanite and mine away if it is. You don't have to scan the ROC rocks, just zoom in and check the cracks. You want purple cracks, not blue and not green. Purple is hadanite.
^
prio hadanite over everything else
nothing comes close in value for hand mineables
dope thanks
WARNING WARNING WARNING
If you have any refinery jobs when the new 3.17.1 patch drops tomorrow (est) you will LOSE all your refinery jobs.
WARNING WARNING WARNING
Also, you will need the Pembroke armor to survive.
Daymar is good for low cash and cant afford the suit, I mine hadanite there, lots of flat area skitrting the hills pretty good spot
One more tip, and this works no matter which moon you are mining. QT to orbital marker OM-1. If you dive down to the planet surface from there (be careful to not crater and crash into the planet) you will find that is ALWAYS daylight there.
Poles, how do they work
refinery's get wiped tommorrow ?
not friday?
I said "estimated" but it is all a guess. It will drop very soon. They are pushing a new patch tonight to the PTU (late) and if it passes muster, it might go LIVE tomorrow. If not the may push one more patch tomorrow.
They have a hard deadline that will force their hands, so it will happen in the next 48 hrs, maybe 24hrs
Pretty close to the new normal for a little while
The ping is difficult to use and the Scan is still hosed, but it did bring ROC mining back to life
idk about asteroid mining but moon mining has also been easier with the new scanner
Hey, do you guys know how I can remove all the scrap from my ship?
Yeah asteroid mining is pretty much done unfortunately
Inert material?
from a Prospector?
Also, there is a bug that will often show your ship has inert material when you've just mined some Quantaniuim. When you go to the refiner and setup your job, the Quan will be there (or most of it)
Um like those big boxes with a recycle logo, they are just sitting in the back of my ship
Sell that at ARC-L1
just got a prospector and kitted it out
now where is an easy spot for quantum for a beginner
i saw the hull a can extend its cargo like physically there is an animation. is there more to it than just a cool animation?
you need a ship with 22scu cargo space there to transfer at the Select Storage Option tab. Once loaded up you can go to Area18 TDD to sell
hey, how much money can i make per hour mining?
Depends
Ship mining, like a Prospector or a Mole, can net a good profit with high risk. ROC mining can net 250k in an hour if you're willing to risk a 30k and losing all of your mined stuff
probably ship mining I think
with some good rng you should be able to make 2 runs an hour which is around $500K in a Prospector. Bad rng and you will make $0 lol
do you make more doing multicrew with like a mole or osmething?
you make more total in a Mole but when you split the profits it works out around the same or less depending on how many crew
say you're duoinng it
You have potential to make more but still rng heavy. 2 prospectors is also a solid choice for a duo. Scouting is the time consuming bit so 2 mobile ships scouting is great
how much is the mole?
Bit over $5M. I wouldn't advise learning to mine in a Mole though
You generally learn to mine in a Prospector then decide if you want to go the Mole route later
say you're with a buddy in 2 prospectors and find a quant rock, is it grouped or is it just the one which makes it hard
There's single rocks and clusters around
22scu? so prospector?
gotcha, me and my friend just trying to find diff ways to make so me money
and not grind bunker missions or erts
Prospector has no cargo space, the 32 scu is only for raw mined ore. Need a cargo ship
rent a cutlass
who sells surge mod?
hurl2
what method do i use to refine quant?
fuck me
like i dont own a thing with that much cargo i think
i dont own a thing with cargo
my bad
how much would i get for that amount of quant?
Can rent a Cutlass Black from the refinery. your quant will sell for around 190K. After the 3.17.1 patch is out you can stack refinery orders (indefinitely) then rent a Connstellation Andromeda to do a bulk sell trip
The upcoming patch will wipe refinery orders so don't do it now
lol Phoenix is the ticket then
Should I melt my ROC for a ROC-DS?
wouldn't advise it, ROC DS is pretty clunky to use. better off with 2 ROCS if mining with a friend
fair enough. maybe 3 ROCs solo in a cutty, just fill them all up?
that's an option for sure, i'm pretty over it after filling up 1 ROC though lol
yeah I hear ya
and you risk getting a 30K so it's better for my piece of mind to make frequent sell trips
fair enough... i've lost many loads to game crashes.... seemed to always be when I was collecting that 6 node Hadanite
you could try 2 ROCS in the cutty though and see what you think, only $4K to rent a second one for the day
very true
the ROC DS is a 2 seater so you have to drive it it to the rock, then hop out and jump in the mining seat & hope you don't need to move at all. pretty aweful for solo
I forgot about that part. I was just thinking 4x storage
yeah way better with 2 ROCs if solo
not sure if there's a "best" spot. If there was everyone else would be there so it wouldn't be the "best" any more
redmonstergaming.com has some great cheatsheets that will help you decide what YOUR best spot is
I'm not sure
found this tonight and it is some of the best info I have seen on asteroid mining https://cstone.space/resources/knowledge-base/36-refinery-to-aaron-halo-mining-routes
even an interactive map to click on for starting refinery to the halo
I ran a few different points to test if the info was still current, hit 45%+ qt rock at all 4 points I tested within minutes of hitting the band
I just hope the patch dont come before tomorrow afternoon, I got a pile of 3100 qt refinery runs cooking
lmao
wait if i hold quant as cargo will it go away after the patch?
or only if its in refining
dont know about cargo
im pretty sure the runs will pop tho
6 runs with 3100 each =18600 qt @88 per unit 1.6mil give or take for just under 3 hours of mining all set to go off 10am tomorrow
does cru l1 give bonus money for quant?
it give 3% bonus yield
good enough
wait so how much quantum can i collect?
what are you flying? Prospector? Mole?
Nice!! I just ran a Cutty full of refined product, bout 50% Quant
how do i put my shit in a cutty
I took that shit to a station without a refinery
only option cuz i was almost outta time
You don't.. you go to the refinery and have it refined
your ships gonna blow up. even if you stored it, the time picks up where it left off when you retrieve it
all you can do is hope theres a trade console on the station and you can sell the raw material
LOL!!
yeah I blew up my first run and I had a seasond coach in voice. we were craking big rocks that take 2 Prospectors
You're gonna want to upgrade your PP, Coolers, And QT ASAP. Faster is better for QT
what do you run?
I have a Beacon in mine
go to erkul.games and build it out. you can even make a shopping list that will tell you where to go and the best prices
k
what do u use for coolers and power plants tho
Beacon isn't the fastest, but I wanted to keep SOME range
i get that
thanks
np
so i claimed my refined order to my MAX, but I enter the ship and there's nothing in it?
good idea
this game really grinds my fucking gears
so I place my last refinery job, into the max
retrieve the max
no cargo
nothing in refinery
so fucking dumb
waste of 15 hours of my life
lol
welcome to alpha... servers have been realy buggy since friday. There was some euc dupe glitch that i think was effecting performance and who knows what they're doing on the back end for invictus week
but yeah.. loosing a load of refined goods sux
I have my Cutty and she's cutting it for now
I'm hoping that the MSR is back in the pledge store for Invictus... Daddy's gonna get himself a fathers day present
msr is a great ship
It's the first ship I saw in an ingame showroom that made me just say "wow.... I'm gonna get one of those"
eventually I'll get a fighter... but I'm not in a hurry for that aspect of game play.... CRSI gave me an Arrow when I got the Prospector, so that should be a good start
Damn... now that I have the ROC inside the cutty.... theres less room than I imagined
might be able to fit 2
need a c2?
lol\
im so bored lol
You have a ROC?
nope
was gonna tell ya to come to Daymar and load it up, and I'll load mine and we can go hunt for Hadanite
im at crusader now
oh lol I'
I was just about to leave Daymar and go to Hurston. I think I'm gonna get a 2nd ROC
I hate renting
I always want to upgrade stuf
fair
I'd go Quant mining but rumor is all refining orders will get wiped for Invictus patch
So I'm just screwin around
exactly... after I blow my load on ROC#2
gonna name the 1st one Billy... 2nd one Goat
what kind of spaceship dealership can't even offer you a bottle of water
anyone know where to go on Hurston for a drink?
i think tamanys got drinks and food
performance is so bad here
I'm just gonna fly out
18 fps here
I usually run 50-70
yea thats how it goes
mines usually dont get that low but sometimes the servers get mad
I got wifey's blessing to buy a 3080ti for fathers day... but thats like $1300...
be a big improvement from my 1080ti
yea thats gonna be a big jump but i think you should wait till the end of summer
i think the 4k drop this year so itll be a better time to buy
I agree
i'd just get the 3080ti now if you have an old 10 series
if its still serving you fine you can stick with it for now
but new is always better
I always have Core temp, and task manager up on my 2nd monitor... I watch CPU float around 80-90% at 70c, but GPU is always at 98-100%
1340x1440 @120htz
ahh the old square monitors
3440\
lol
lmao
fingers not cooperating
man id say get that shit dog
34" ultrawide
cop out on the new fire
lmao
sell that 1080 quick and get like 4 - 500 back on ebay if you sit
I just won't tell her about the MSR i'm gonna get if it pops up in the pledge store
bro code!!
bro
we are the same
i running 2060
my brother what are we if not a brotherhood
and getting 3080ti on saturday
yeah 5 days if I order it
lol
gonna be hypppeeeee
after that my weak link will be the i7 8700
noooo
damn maybe you should upgrade the cpu before the gpu tbh
maybe you should hold out then
SC is way more cpu heavy
I'mliquid cooled, but had to dial my OC back to 4.6 just for this game
get the 3800 and upgrade your cpu mobo and ram to the new shit at the end of the sumer
i wish i knew more ab oc, next build is water cooled for sure
ti will prob drop a few hundo by then
but thats a whole new MoBo RAM... I go down THAT rabit hole and itll be $3k EASY
you cna defnitely work in the rest of your system into the 1300 maybe a lil spill over
yeah good point it's new rig at that point
sheesh what you planning on buying ?
you can get a 12 core amd chip with a mobo for like 4 - 500 and 32gb of ggdr5 for like 200 ish
Bro... I'm the kind of guy that buys the best i can so that it lasts as long as possible
it'll be the fastest everything, liquid cooled....
when the time comes... for now... GPU should set me solid
I hate New Babage right now.... It's night, it's raining, and theres no landing bay marker... I just landed my Cutty inside 100% in 1st person view after finding an open bay door. Now i get the "warning, you are blocking and active flight bay"
pay your dues
new babbage aint cheap to run
the only thing that works for me is making sure to call them when im front of the bay doors
i usually get a marker that way
I was in the right bay, they didn't impound my ship... but I can't WAIT until they reboot these servers. they need a refresh
Is there a ROC spawn point on Aberdeen or do i have to fly it in
hdms anderson
anywhere there's a platinum bay landing service you can spawn your kand vehicles
theres another one but i remember that one because of the matrix
thank you... I usually go to Daymar
so major outposts owned by the planet it's orbiting
all the cities also have planetary surface exits, except ArcCorp I think. it's a city planet
yeah.. ArcCorp is my home planet and I can't apply skins to ROCs because of it
you can spawn the roc in mt
go to any of the surface elevators they all got garages
I have a P store skin... has to be home planet
you can claim it there and apply the skin
any of the moons around it should should have outposts you can spawn the roc
I have not found surface access on arcorp
oh, they also made skins physical inventory
ah arc corp
hmm I'll have to try that
not yet but after the patch i think
ah
but you might be able to store it in your ship then store you ship at arc corp
not sure if that works but
for science
good idea... I tried it already though
lol yep!!
Now that I have 2 ROC... they need to be different colors so I can tell them apart
that is only true with argo cargos
ASPOP reads ROC , ROC2 and ROC 3
argo cargos are god
argo cargo is our god and savior
roc's are our kratos
for some reason the game Duped my 1st ROC but won't let me claim it
those who face the argo cargo, shall flee with fear
be wary of the might of the roc
So I am really using ROC and ROC3
yea i got the same dupe
i still have a prospector i rented for a day, three days ago
can't claim it
but it's on the asop terminal
i got 8 dragon flys rocs prospectors 125a's and connie aquilas
its a good and bad thing
can you use them all?
who needs that many connies
nice
i can face ram all hammer head missions for instant money
you could get a few pilots and run a cargo company
i think someone said they were using the star runner to kamikaze hammerheads
and sometimes you even get the cash
I'm trying to get my cousin to play. He already does flight sims. He was trying to be a commercial pilot. He'll tell me that hes doing a flight from Phoenix to Honalulu...
sometimes
sometimes you pass
i think it depends on if the guards are dead or not
show him the retaliator
thats all he gotta see
maybe some gladius and arrows for good measure
don't know why they complain so much about ships and keeping it safe
isn't there regeneration in the lore?
not to mention it seems pretty quick to manufacture new vessels
and have it delivered
its gonna get harder when all the features are in
waiting for a new job type where you can pay a player through an asop terminal to have your ship delivered
it'll be quicker, and likely cost less
i dont know if i trust those poors with my 600 series tho
shit any of my origins really
there would of course be a trust thing like the current missions
maybe even starting with Npc vessels
it'll be wild to get your ship stolen and stripped tho
that would be a possibility, but then you can always blacklist them, right?
blacklist?
their trust value will go down
you mean hitlist
eh
but what I'm really waiting for, is being able to deliver cargo for other people
they can take their cargo up to my vessel and offload it, and I can deliver it to their destination
already using a cat
im using a c2 for now
took me an hour to fill it with laranite
that speed diiference is key
yea
but cat is cat
i want to be able to potentially face rame a ship then get away in my lil shitter
and also deliver cargo on a good day
cat gives me kamikaze option built in
you mean bad day?
maybe slow day
caterpillar is essential a missile strapped to a cockpit
I swear... I'm gonna put a P52 into an MSR and fly it places
you can do it
maybe depending on the cargo, it'll have different effects
I've seen the redit post
i didnt even know there was one i just have absolute confidence
becuase you gotta believe sometimes
lol
does refinery jobs persist in next update
what % would you say certainity
idfk
thats being nice about it
everyone I've heard talkin says they'll be gone... like it's normal.... thats why i'm doing Hadanite tongiht
Well it is normal
I have a Few questions about mining it's been a few months since I played and I was wondering what the best gadgets for mining quantanium were and if any of the new ones are worth using also is lyria still the best planet to mine quantanium on?
yes on lyria, as for gadgets i personally use brandt, surge,and stampede combo theres nothing i cant solo with my prospector in that setup
were is the belt ? i do not see the belt
belts not a point you can target you gotta jump outta qt at certain points to hit it
ya but i mean, on the map i do not see the ring
Thats because you manually go to it
prob bugged out but its all the white rocks somewhat around the sun
there is no actual marker for it
also, handanite farming, is that lots of money ?
yep pretty good
I'm playing tetris ... trying to fit 2 ROC into my Cutty and close the door
they fit... but I can't get that stupid door control
just fly and belive in gravity
oh... i wonder if theres a cocpit door button
Cutty fits 3 rocks
thats brave
Keybind to close all
shit.. i'm going to youtube university now
Lold
I wonder how much mules I may cram into cutty
4 or more?
And into starfarer
20?)
what should I save up for as a cargo ship for refined quant? would a freelancer max be good enough? I kind of want a C2 but I'm not sure if I should just rent a regular freelancer until that or get something cheaper
I was also like this
Fatlancer/raft
is the fatlancer the freelancer max? lol. also is raft purely cargo or can you carry vehicles as well?
and RAFT is purely cargo
Mislancer is freelancer mis
What is the ship with the most cargo capacity to rent? Is it the Freelancer?
Hurrdurr is freelancer dur
Connie
my main ship is a nomad so a freelancer max would probably be the best upgrade. would be nice to fit ground vehicles too
freelancer is nice
but if you can wait it out get that connie
connie love you long time
I started Nomad.. LOVE that ship... got one ROC then got a Prospector, now a Cutty and a 2nd ROC....
that was my path... but I like mining
nomad aint no slouch for roc mining and quant deliverys
yeah I'm loving the nomad so far. it was such a nice step up from my shitty mustang alpha
yeah its a great ship
so far I think I like ROC mining more than prospector/quant
I put an Atlas drive in it, 3x Mirage shields, 3 Panthers, and a JS-300 PP
My Nomad will always be my explore/ROC mine ship
unless I mean business then the Cutty takes 2 ROC and or a lot mor Quant than the nomad
I love my Nomad, can dump a whole lot of bodies from the bunkers on that back tray ๐
connie's like the nomad 2.0
keep the exterior button on a keybind so as im landing bay dropping down
eh
The current selection of multi use ship line up i'd say is titan<nomad<cutlass<andromeda<MSR
That being the price order
not usefulness
Debatable
I don't like that the only way into the msr is through the back ramp. wish the elevator went all the way out
i think thats one of the things getting fixed in the patch dont quote me on that tho
Aquila loses on the upper turret tho
Which is the more effective one
2 baby pews for a better view
who uses a Connie for multicrew though?
in the case you do its better
if you want turret pew pew surely you're in a Hurricane or Redeemer
do you have to be in the pilot seat for the open/close door keybind works?
learned new things
Yes
As expected tbh
What about it?
Well... double ROC mining in a cutty is a PIA...
Pia?
Ah

Hi guys, can you hauled for someone? Or it's only for you?
can only place cargo in a ship you own or are renting
Gotta use your own ship.
You can pilot and land someone else's ship, but they have to buy and sell the goods themselves, in person
Used to pilot-for-hire for a guy who had duped Cats
Question, where is the best place to mine on Daymar, gem-wise?
Hand mining and whatnot
Iโm in a Roc
hand mining? If you absolutely must, caves. They're not marked AFAIK, so easiest way to find them would be to grab an investigate cave mission
Ah, ROC heh
Yep, no mining ship unfortunately
O1 point, drop down towards a terrain feature you like
No, 01 is just north pole\daylight point of planet
So it wouldnโt have more ores?
Compared to rest of planet? IDK, but i do know mining in the dark sucks, so ^^ Also gems tend to like spawning near or in terrain features compared to pure flat land
Gotcha, Iโll fly over :)
Thank you
And what was the gem Iโm looking for again? Forgot the name
The best paying one is Hadanite
Thank you!
Itโs a tad annoying having to hop out to find rock types, but hopefully Iโll get something good
Last time I lost like 4 hours worth of mining to a 40K ๐ฅฒ
Apologies, thatโs probably the term
Yeha, if that was the one, if you wait like 10-15 minutes after it kicked you, the nearest ASOP terminal should allow you to retrieve (compared to claim which gives new ship) your ship/vehicle at xx minutes back in time before error
I say should because.... SC ๐
how long does it take for quantanium to go boom?
Hi, I'm completely new to trading, what are the current best runs?
Aberdeen vs Daymar roc mining ?
15mins from the time the first amount of it enters the mining ship cargo
Aberdeen is the place with most Hadanite rock deposits, most ROC operators go there, Hool
So to find hadanite you do it like quant or just fly low and expect a miracle?
Essentially fly low, look for the box things that come into view at 3000-
In terms of distance
3k or less
I'll get another ship for roc. Flying Cutty Black is annoying because it goes downwards all the time
Oh, I fly a cutty black for roc mining
Just make sure youโre angling it correctly
In vtol?
Without vtol it keeps going downward haha
Oh, just point it up until the angle reaches the 0 marker
You wonโt lose height that way
I will keep trying then
I was just unlucky. Found a deposit of hadanite with like 9 rocks
mmm, so much hadanite,,,
all if the hadanite I've found has been on the side of a mountain... you don't notice until you lose all your minerals because they flew all away
how do you have inert materials? isn't that a roc?
Im not using prospector till tomorrow
it's a nice ship
my first ever experience using the prospector, I died getting into it during the animation
Tomorrow they may release 3.17.1 for invictus. So the refinery orders can be wiped
So I refuse to use it lol
I think thats close enough to understand
someone is probably twitching at my spelling
Nah, youโre fine
rip 30k hopefully protection triggered
I heard that ladder was death ^^
....relogged, and it took me back to where i had just landed when the 30k hit. Went into ROC, it was empty.
I know the US servers seem to get reset a lot in the early AM for some odd reason
This was EU server, which meh, idk, they seeem kinda same'ish stability wise - i do hop around at times
This patch is pretty rough overall
Here's to hoping the 3.17.1 will improve it
Stability isn't it's strong suit
Thinking it'll be 3.17.2 before a more stable like we saw in 3.15 & 16
I had an issue where none of the ATC would acknowledge my ship. I had over 150k of Quantainium to sell. I finally had to fly up MT and land at the Commons
Why do you need atc? Impound it
I forgot that orison have same glitch as new cabbage
The cities don't offer that option
"The secret ingridient is crime"
