Star Citizen: Chris Robert`s new space sim (the Wing Commander guy)

Think that’s a smart decision at this point if you’re on the fence :)

Center itself shouldn’t? From what I’m seeing you get an injury for head hits (possibly lethal), losing a side torso, ammo explosion, and falling.

Sorry it’s been crashing for some of you guys. Literally rock solid — zero crashes here (knock on wood), only issue is the 21:9 has UI problems, so I’ve been running it 16:9 with black borders. Wonder if the crashing is hardware dependent?

Yes it works on any class but light mechs have the initiative to pull off the move without risking any opposing fire. Sensor lock is great for stripping evasion and suddenly putting distant sensor contacts into LRM land. Definitely will try the +1 initiative.

I like the sensor lock plus the ability to grant movement after firing for a light: reserve until the last round, move in to flank and fire, then the following turn fire again and withdraw. Sensor lock to stay useful until that window of opportunity opens up. Otherwise multi target is my go to.

No crashes but 3440x1440 has a couple of UI issues. Overall enjoyable so far.

Because the entirety of CIG was responsible for the stream of course. Also, again, you can play the current Alpha to see that they are making progress. Speaking of which, Alpha 3.0 is now open to all backers on the PTU...

Hope for a great game? I dunno, the released alpha stages are a pretty good indicator of both progress and quality (not that the current 3.0 builds are really "prime time" yet). Constant communication, multiple touchpoints every week on the various facets of development? The face palming is...

You’re not wrong, it’s a combination of stellar bodies and distances being scaled down for gameplay, the videos being shown of 3.0 are either small moons or an asteroid (Delmar), and the atmosphere of these bodies are appropriately thin. With scale, a better reference is the Arccorp planet demo...

Pre-purchased based off of the alpha and beta gameplay as well as word that future DLC would be free. Was unaware of the full implications of the cards/P2W aspects of the system, mostly was excited for Star Wars with a single player component. Played through the single player ONLY, left with...

Correct, not every building. Even if you could, it couldn’t be properly appreciated. However the tools allow them to generate interiors for ArcCorp (and elsewhere) with minimal effort. With NPCs and incorporation into the mission system, this would allow for a lot more variety in missions and...

So, fun add on. During the ~8 min warp time when Sean Tracey gets on stage and shows the tools that were used to set up the procgen city, he states and shows that the generated interior set up ties in with the city setup. Yeah. ArcCorp has interiors too. That 2nd tool is just amazing and...

This pretty much sums it up for me. Put simply, the space sim genre was dead prior to Roberts (and then Braben) jumping back in. I backed both immediately (both around $250 each) as I have the income and want both projects to succeed. There are plenty of other games (not to mention life with...
