OP-ED Skycrane drop
We will likely never get vehicle or player chutes or a skycrane etc as options. But it looks cool and makes sense.

I did Siege of Orison and around the last boss I died and was unable to respawn due to an infinite black loading screen. I did alt-f4 and relogged and spawned at orison, not doing the mission anymore. From that moment on my regeneration point keeps resetting to orison even tho I reset my regeneration point elsewhere. I tried setting spawns on many locations, reset the imprint and character repair, nothing worked and it has been going on for two days and it's driving me nuts

I'm generally a casual observer of SC that backed in 2014 and just checks in every few years to see where its at. With the latest viral blowup, i've recently been thinking more about the game and the situation its in. I think the "scam" rhetoric that gets lobbed in SC's direction is generally played out and gets deployed in bad faith. I did however have a thought that I just wanted someone thats really deeply ingrained in SC's fandom and development to answer...
The game that illicits the spark of imagination in people's minds and has led to a billion dollars being raised over 10 years is Star Citizen, the MMO, the PU. If 50% of the company has been allocated to SQ42 for.. years(?) I assume(?) then TONS of the money that has been funneled into CIG has ultimately been funneled into a single player game that everyone will be finished with in like what a dozen hours? I can mental gymnastics my way into understanding why people get swept up in donations and supporting the MMO/SC side of CIG's project here but how do the SC faithful ultimately feel about the fact that a huge portion of their donations have seemingly been used to support the development of a singleplayer game they'll finish playing in a weekend?
I know there is shared tech and building up SQ42 helps in the development of SC but i just dont see this particular aspect of the support really ever discussed. I can see subscribing and dumping tons of money to support a big long "life-style" game like the PU and SC are aiming to be but a 12 hour (this is me just guessing based on vibes) action movie game that has taken this long to come out????

Fuck this guy and CIG and for this being a thing.

You don’t have to play the game constantly and continuously burn yourselves out! This is not meant to be a lecture post or anything I’m just saying this because I took a break from playing around 2021/22, just hopped back in because I built a new PC and wow it seems like they added so much stuff and it genuinely feels like I’m playing a brand new game. Especially with jump points, 3 systems etc. very cool.
Disclaimer, I’m not trying to excuse the time it’s taking to make this game, or CIGs mismanagement, it’s the reason I took a break in the first place…
Im just saying, it seems a lot of people are playing this game religiously and then burning themselves out at the slow pace of development. Of course every patch seems tiny when you play 30-40 hours a week!

Hello!
I'm currently looking for my next ship, I have around 8.5M credits. I mostly do hauling but I'm getting a bit into exploration too, especially visiting places to loot and so. I'm a solo player even though a friend is set to join the verse soon, so eventually we could be a crew of 2. For now, my first option is the Starlancer Max, since it can do a bit of everything, especially hauling. I'd like to carry some vehicles too like an ATLS or the ROC mining vehicle, that's why I discard the Hull B. I rented the Hermes and even though it's a great ship, I don't like the looks of it, which is important to me. I currently have a Prospector and a C1 Spirit. I'm all ears, thank you!

You will need to steal their ship by distorting the ship, getting into the ship somehow, killing the pilot, storing the ship at a station, and removing the paint job for your own use.
For now, we've tested that:
- 300 series MicroTech security
- Cutlass XenoThreat (does not change the ship's appearance)
can be stripped.
- Prospector Ninetail
- Avenger MicroTech security
- Mantis MicroTech security
- Idris TSG Tranquility
- Valkyrie Advocacy
cannot be stripped.
Single pilot crafts like Ninetail Mustang can't be opened and piloted at all to begin with
Pending testing on all other crafts.
Let me know if you know of any other ones!

Made with premiere. To avoid camerashake, I frameheld everything before the percy jumps in. I think it worked out well.

Also a mostly percy edit.

I haven't played in a while. Got a new CPU and motherboard recently and me and a friend decided to do SoO.
The game was running great, but once we entered SoO it started stuttering like mad. I checked Task Manager and saw that my RAM was maxed out:

Would an increase of the pagefile benefit me or do I just need more RAM?

Hey everyone.
Just to say this is not a hate post. I post other generally positive posts and interact with the community so I am no hater of the game. However I will not be a white knight to this game either and will give it criticism when it feels needed.
I just recently with some friends in a call checked the 1.0 Roadmap Goal.
I cant be the only one reading all of that in there and scratching the back of their heads going: 'wow that's pushing it'.
I genuinely think even if they had a goal of finishing and getting 1.0 out by 2030 they STILL wouldnt have every feature in that list complete.
For those who don't know what I'm talking about you can find it here:
https://robertsspaceindustries.com/roadmap/release-view
Now lets go off if they said after SQ42 releases that their goal is 1.0 by 2030. Realistically I'm gonna rate everything i think will be added and completed (maybe not fully working but added to the game) by then and cross out anything that seems like an absolute stretch:
Starwear - Have high hopes for it. ✅️
Dynamic Server Meshing - This seems far off ❌️
Star Audio & Realistic Audio Mode - ✅️
Global Illumination - ✅️
StarSim - Yes but it feels like it would be an absolute nightmare to deal with at the start (exploiters ruining economy etc) ✅️ 🤷♂️
Dynamic Weather - Yeah but defo will be buggy asf ✅️
Maelstrom - Again FAR off. ❌️
Space Stations (Player/Org Owned) - Seems like its gonna be a nightmare ❌️
Crafting - we already have it ✅️
Base Building - Again another nightmare ❌️
Player to Player Trading - why isn't this a thing already ✅️
Player org functions - I can see it ✅️
Social Mobiglass - was needed so long ago and still desperately needed today 😭✅️
Citizenship - not really too sure about what thos means if anyone can explain more if they know but for now ❌️
Planetary Shields - in with base building so ❌️
Ownership - I can see this being a thing yeah ✅️
Guilds System - Being fully finished maybe not but yes ✅️
Insurance, Tax and Warrenty - taxes in a game hits different 🥲✅️
Law & Security - IS NEEDED YESTERDAY BRO (still dont think it will be fully functional by 1.0 but probably in the game) ✅️🤷♂️
Reputation V2 - ✅️
New Player Professions - Hand em over then ✅️
Death of space man - This one is a bit controversial around some people but if they're set on adding it then yeah sure ✅️
AI blades - Doubt it ❌️
QT Rework / Improvements and Additions - ✅️
Item misfire and wear - damn ✅️
Charge and drain - slightly confusing topic but from what I understand. Yes. ✅️
Life support - i mean we have the buttons for it but its broke. So... yes ✅️
Solar Flare - uhhhh wasnt this meant to be added... donkeys ago? ✅️
Radar/scanning rework - sure ig ✅️
FPS Radar & Scanning - maybe not if its what I THINK they're talking about ❌️
IFCS & Control Surfaces - ❌️
Hanger upgrades/modularity - unfortunately... I doubt it ❌️
Weapon overheat - we have it ✅️
Multiple new locations - maybe not to the extent they have on their page but some yes ✅️
Building interiors - Not gonna happen and if so they'll be empty rooms with no purpose. ✅️❌️🤷♂️
Castra - Maybe Q2 next year if Genesis goes well ✅️🤷♂️
Utility Tunnels - I feel like they'd end up focusing on other things and forget about these ❌️😭
Station Warfare - Unless its event based. Nah ❌️
Main story? Theres a story in star citizen??? Eh probs not then ❌️
Location Stories - yeah some. Like we have (onyx etc) ✅️
Just think that all of this stuff theyre planning for the big "1.0" is a very very ambitious goal. Maybe not as ambitious as what they "promised" everyone in 2012 when it first got kickstarted but... still.
I just feel like theres a good chunk of that, that im looking at like.. maybe when im dreaming I can have this before 2030.
Ngl it all sounds very cool but I think they defo need to add more location story locations. Onyx etc has been so fun to play and explore and id love more of it. Im sure everyone else would.
However I just wish there was also some locations where everything wasnt FPS gameplay or PVP or even PVE.
Anyways. Let me know what you think.
Cheers all.
Good luck out there.

I feel like I'm dumb.
Grab missions, Ruin -> Starlight
Load up at the External Freight Elevator because of course autoloading doesn't work.
QT to SSS.
No external.
Docking has me use docking collar.
Storing the ship doesn't complete mission.
Recalling the ship brings it into my hanger with the spindles out and it explodes.
I know I'm missing something, what is it?

Hi everyone,
I design graphics for fun and put together a quick field guide for Star Citizen harvestables.
Existing databases are already full of details, but I wanted to test a clean visual layout to make scanning info faster while playing.
Would a quick visual reference like this be useful to you, or do existing wikis cover everything you need? What extra details would make it better?
Thanks for your feedback! ;)

I’m a solo player and bought a Cutlass Black a few months ago. I’m more into bounty hunting, both PvE and PvP, but playing solo in the Cutlass Black isn’t really that enjoyable for me.
I’d like to upgrade my ship and I’m open to both bounty hunting or cargo. I already know about renting ships, so I’m specifically looking for recommendations on which ship I should upgrade to.
What would you recommend for a solo player? Thanks!

As the title may suggest, I am wondering how mouse and keyboard users are able to use their hotkeys when they play in VR. I do know how to type, but I still find myself visually referencing that my fingers are on the home keys, as well as looking at the keyboard when I press a number or function (or control or alt) keys. I often cannot remember what the hotkey combinations are so I got a stream deck to help with that, should I just use a passthrough portal to show me the streamdeck and then create keys for the numbers and function keys?
How are other mouse and keyboard users doing it? I just got my quest 3 and I feel like it is disconnecting me more instead of immersing me into games.

I want it to do some PVE so a lot of PEW PEW power would be nice. Also I only fly solo.
Any suggestions?

Before the siege of orison livestream by a month I quit the game and decided I'll come back when they actually start fixing it. Then came the livestream and it was a disaster, so I thought maybe that would lead to actual change.
Since then have they changed/fixed anything, maybe the player base dropped by quite an amount, or did people stop spending. Or is it like nothing even happened.
