Theres like a copyright free version of almost every popular sci fi ship in SC but somehow the Normandy isnt one of them

I think the Hammerhead is close to like the idea of the Normandy but it diesnt feel like a normal

Polaris maybe

The SSR-1 normandy is very tiny

Oh Carrack is pretty close

The ME1 Normandy is literally 4 rooms

[summer bobcat]

ah some things never change do they

[sharp pine]

paladin is here

perseus can hurt the polaris but all the polaris needs to do is land one torp

[summer bobcat]

we pray in the pdcs

https://tenor.com/view/the-expanse-gif-19940167

it semes liek the entire design idea between the percy and polaris is that while the polaris needs to land but one single shot, that single shot is a torpedo, which can be counter measured and min ranged, and the percys speed is supposed to let it rush into the min range while avoiding torpedo lock and then do the fuckin uhhh

that shit

rsi drops the hardest trailer ever asked to kee cooking

[summer bobcat]

Im going vanduul hunting

In an M2 with the boys

And huzz

[sharp pine]

I still wouldn't expect it to win in a fight against anything bigger than a hammerhead

although in a wolfpack

I could see it crippling an idris

[summer bobcat]

yeah i dont expect it to take out an idris

[sharp pine]

now

a perseus with a polaris

ultimate murder machines

[summer bobcat]

still trying to figue out how to ccu to it 😭

[sharp pine]

I know like 20 people with the perseus

i aint spending another dime on this game

[summer bobcat]

im trying to run a cargo route and if i can do it without any major technical issues i shall buy it

[summer bobcat]

the monkeys paw curls...

its iae and free flight and new huge update week

i thought..

i thought there was no way

I did somehow make a loss of 21k but i think thats definitely me fucking up math lol

I think

[dusty haven]

in theory, you should be able to make a cargo route and actually make money, but doing it during free flight is a gamble

[summer bobcat]

I dont actually remember what i started with but i think i actually did make a profit

Perhaps my tools are simply not up to date with the math calcuations

[summer bobcat]

you GOTTA get the arrow believe me

r u a serb

[sharp pine]

slamming patrol contracts in the police brutality machine

[summer bobcat]

i need more spaceships in f-35 aggressor camo

[summer bobcat]

do NOT do intersec missions in an arrow

[summer bobcat]

i love the way the blue reflects

[sharp pine]

😭

my 2 manned reduced signature paladin build is like the baseline for running these missions

[summer bobcat]

Im running a stock paladin for them lmao

[sharp pine]

lol

[summer bobcat]

[sharp pine]

I say baseline but the paladin real does just run down the intersec missions

[summer bobcat]

This was a good purchase

I think its a much better ship for me than the Perseus

Also im not like thr hugest halo fan but:

[sharp pine]

paladin is just like the perfect gunship for me as well

[summer bobcat]

I do gotta get me those grade A industrial shields tho

[sharp pine]

https://www.erkul.games/loadout/b4Rlrhk3

this is the build I did

it halfs almost all the signatures

actually makes it so you can flare off most missiles

no attritions are on it tho I used the stock guns

[summer bobcat]

I like that if i have all my bros on we can all lock in and do cool shit but if its just me and one other i can still use guns and still have good firepower

[sharp pine]

cf's are like the only viable guns rn

[summer bobcat]

The CF’s are just the best

I have 2 M7A’s or whatever on the top turret tho

[sharp pine]

it makes me so pissed off tho because I want to use attritions for my polaris purely for the dps but like by god if I cant hit shit whats the point

they should make it so capital ships get turret buffs

[summer bobcat]

Ok well you shouldnt have wanted to dogfight in the Arleigh Burke man idk 😭

[sharp pine]

larger powerplant blah blah blah more power to the guns blah blah blah higher firespeed longer distance

[sharp pine]

nah thats not exactly my point I worded it wrong

[summer bobcat]

Yeah idk the polaris kinda wore off on me and the bjg ship in general thing did

I get what you mean dw

[sharp pine]

capital ship gameplay needs to be refined a little more

I think engineering will be a big step in that direction

i am excited for the polaris rework tho

[summer bobcat]

I think theyre running into an issue of wanting fighters to be early 50’s dogfighting while larger ships is 80’s naval combat but like these two seem to be super at odds with each other with how theyre doing it

[sharp pine]

especially because star citizen is basically ww2 in space

[summer bobcat]

Well thats because its truthfully more engaging for fighters that way

[sharp pine]

true

honestly tho

[summer bobcat]

But i want the big ships to be 50km bvr fights

[sharp pine]

on the cap ship conversation

I think cig needs to stop being afraid to make capital ships overpowered

like thats just the fucking point lmao

big fuck off ship im supposed to be afraid to fight it

[summer bobcat]

Interestingly everyone seems to be sayinf they are blatantly overpowered

And fighters are awful and never use them

[sharp pine]

I dont think theyre overpowered enough

[summer bobcat]

Also fighters are the best ever and theres no point in ever using anything else and capital ships are especially terrible

(????)

[sharp pine]

I use the polaris as an example alot because its the one I have the most knowledge on and actually own

the reason why its powerplant is so fucking big is because the rsi designers made it 3x bigger that it actually needed it to be purely for speed

except its the slowest fucking cap in game

[summer bobcat]

Im curious if the Paladins powerplant is gonna be changed

[sharp pine]

like the polaris should be contending with some of the larger gunships purely because it has those massive engines and reactor

[summer bobcat]

Surely it wil be probably

[sharp pine]

I think so eventually

I also believe that the percys guns will get an ammo nerf

[summer bobcat]

Then again, the paladin isnt a particularly insane ship

[sharp pine]

its got no business having 900 rounds per gun 10 shoting an m2

[summer bobcat]

The powerplant pretty well balances out its need for a crew and weak armor

[sharp pine]

yeah it is a really good gunship but the second it steps up to anything bigger it really starts to struggle

which makes sense

[summer bobcat]

Its a gunship to go against things like the hammerhead the corsair the terrapin and fighters

[sharp pine]

hammerhead melts the paladin no contest

but I mean go figure

[summer bobcat]

I havent had them do too much damage

The hammerheads blindspots are pretty rough

[sharp pine]

I mean in a 1v1 I can maybe see a paladin victory but

I dont believe it would be consistent assuming both have experienced crews

[summer bobcat]

Its a tight matchup

Its a very slim margin for victory

The paladins turret can keep that constant firepower pressure on the hammerhead, while the hammerhead can dish out more firepower if the paladin is in the position to be shot at

But kf you manage to keep to its sides or limit the number of turrets able to see/reach you the 4 size 5’s of the paladin turret are dangerous

[sharp pine]

however if there is literally any fighter support for the hammerhead its just over

[summer bobcat]

Or the paladin

Its such a slim margin that changing one thing in either side changes the victor

[sharp pine]

I believe its less of the case for the paladin

as the hammerhead is literally a different weight class and just has more guns on the other side

[summer bobcat]

Yeah the hammerhead can fire on the fighter and paladin both at once

[sharp pine]

and the fighter is going to be a lot easier to slam than the paladin so it would lose its advantage pretty quickly

[summer bobcat]

I definitely needed something that can actually punch medium ships tho haha

And didnt really want to get an ares or something

[sharp pine]

real

[summer bobcat]

My options were: arrow, M2, C1, syulen

None of these were things id willingly want to take against a terrapin or corsair

[sharp pine]

yeah lol'

my fleet is a little bigger but I aint crewing up a whole ass polaris to run missions every time and soloing in the corsair just gets old

so for now... you have to create a user.cfg in your PTU folder and place the following:
sys.openxr=42
r_StereoMode=1
Just need to turn it on in FOIP/Headtracking settings and have it plugged in when the game starts

xakes dream come true

[tawny brook]

Engineering in general is awesome when you don't just full death anyways. Has made for lots of neat moments

[mental steeple]

ayo

[tawny brook]

I'd hold off until 4.7 drops, the servers are absolutely toast right now.

[uncut elbow]

how long is that

also I feel it

😭

[tawny brook]

Hopefully within the next week or two, but we'll see. Stability has apparently been a problem in Evo/PTU for 4.7 as well...

4.6 was livable up until around the middle to end of free fly.

[tired zephyr]

was that why I had a stroke trying to play a couple days ago

[idle canopy]

this patch isn't great stability wise, on top of that star citizen has a long history of being in evocati testing which in turn makes the live servers go to absolute shit, they have claimed that there is no way that the testing environment affects the live stuff but it does it every single time

[tawny brook]

I suspect that there's no direct code path that causes that, but they have a few employees who do a bunch of manual things to keep the PU ticking 'properly' and they get pulled away while test universes are up.

[uncut elbow]

uuhhhhh guys

someone sent me a lot of fucking money

idk what to do with it

[summer bobcat]

Give 9 mill to me so i can buy a hull c

[uncut elbow]

I understand the upper elites now. I want more money

I won’t be handing this out to you

They need to add a stock market to the game so I can live off my dividends

how do I get the 0 interest loans too

[mental steeple]

https://youtu.be/SzMHlkiv4DQ

they fold now

[gritty hollow]

only took them 10+ years

[tired zephyr]

oh this thing looks cool

let me guess its like 5x the price or some bullshit

[idle canopy]

it's still a starter ship, so i'm guessing not much more than the mk. I

the idea is once the mk. II is in, the mk. I is no longer available and then (through artificial scarcity) the mk. I becomes more rare etc.

[uncut elbow]

is 4.7 out yet?

[idle canopy]

no but supposedly this week

[idle canopy]

from here https://robertsspaceindustries.com/spectrum/community/SC/lobby/38230

[tired zephyr]

15 more it seems

should i upgrade my mk1 to it

seems smart and only 15 bucks

[true pivot]

Brother how

[summer bobcat]

$15

[keen tiger]

guys if everyone donated in this server $1 for a community CAW8 odin

we still wouldn’t be able to afford one

[mental steeple]

CAW8 odin would go so crazy

By then we'll get all of our sons and daughters in on it for the most epic space case 3

double or even triple our numbers
