I think my favorite reward here has to be the ballista for the ones who were bombed by an A2 the most at Ghost Hollow.

So with the introduction of Vehicle Mounted Tractor Beams, I have come back to the Origin 315P.

It has all the amenities of the 300i and 325A, but also the maximum of Cargo Capacity (12 SCU). But the question is, is the 315P with its Sure Grip Tractor Beam instead of the S4 nose hardpoint worth it?

Sure you can pull Cargo with it, but you simply can't pull cargo onto your lift since it isn't a remote turret, and even then the fore cargo lift has its barrier in between the turret and the lift making it impossible to just pull and push the crates in.

Will the Exploration/Pathfinder variant of the 300 series get some additional aces up its sleeve, or was that it? And where are actually its ship components?

Took the SRV out last night for some bounty fun with the org mates. Never thought I'd have so much fun in an unarmed ship.

A couple of us were in combat ships, taking out the ERT bounties. Another ran a cargo ship. I piloted the SRV. Combat ships would knock down the bounties, preferably soft deathed. Any ships with decent cargo, I'd tow up to orbit and drop the ramp/lift. We'd transfer the cargo over, then make a run over to a salvage outpost and sell it.

Being unarmed put me in a position where I could concentrate on the big picture of the fight, while keeping an eye out for new hostiles. If we ever get the chance, upgrading the sensors on it would be my first component upgrade on it as a result (don't believe that's gonna happen). Towing the ships themselves wasn't complicated, but the mechanics involved mean I couldn't just tractor up to a Connie and horse on it without breaking the connection.

Update: apparently folk don't realize ERT bounty missions aren't players, but instead criminal NPCs. No players were harmed during the evening's events.

At the very least, it's a beautiful video.

With the luckily rapidly developed hotfix for salvaging and the Aegis Day during IAE, 3 friends and me rented a Reclaimer to test out the hotfix.

I was super happy to notice that the main elevator works flawlessly now. You can reach any floor and don't get stuck on one. The salvaging fills up as it used to be, but sadly here as well CIG decided to throw away the Abrade for a Sure Grip Tractor Beam, which as we know is now illegal to use on a ship.... good job breaking it.

One last thing though that bothers me is that the headlights don't work.

In the end we salavged a Starlifter and got 50 scu worth of RMC. Was quite the pleasant experience.

Looks like that "owned ships disappearing from the ASOP terminal" is tied to renting ships. Bad bug to be existing as we go into IAE later this week.

Update: allegedly resolved in a deployed hotfix.

So with a random happenstance, some guys and I met at Area 18 where we discovered some places to land on with no issues. This includes the ATC Tower of Riker Memorial Spaceport and the IO Tower.

We also discovered that you can fly over the Highway which only has a soft No-Fly Zone now (you can enjoy 17 seconds of Highway to the Danger zone, if you will).

I have a 4th possible choice to join the game... EPTU - I just don't have the slightest idea what it is.

Hey there citizens! I've updated my #starcitizen #voiceattack macros for version 3.21 and posted a video about the updates.

I'll start: I (wrongly) used the card mom said was for emergencies for the original Kickstarter. Since then I've gotten a degree, started my career, partnered in a startup, and moved down and across the country a couple times as well.

Had one yesterday, time to talk about the sequel.

Not gonna lie, today left a much stronger impression than day 1. I'm one of the weirdos who's fully onboard with all the sim and on foot stuff so I got a lot of interesting updates. Enough to get my hopes a little. Just a little.

Few notes from the stream:

• really like the frontier fashion as I prefer more modern looking clothing compared to (some of the) futuristic designs we have now
• clothes modularity is an amazing addition, another feature from my childhood dream game will be a thing
• love the hair improvements, one of the things I really waited for
• new character editor looks great, we'll finally be able to make really distinct characters
• FPS updates seem good, all but ping anyway - not a fan of such mechanic. I'd rather have it tied to a usable device if it has to be in the game rather than just a helmet.
• not fully sold on the slide but I don't hate it either
• space combat improvements look good, that's about all of my feelings on that as I'm not particularly interested in this part of the game
• still not sold on master modes, should probably try AC implementation
• I'm really curious how my ~~brick~~ Aurora handles atmo flight in the future
• new settlements look pretty impressive, I especially like the homey feeling of independent type tileset
• Pyro presentation made me change my mind about trying out Pyro when it's out
• mhmmm, yummy slugs
• personal hangars look great
• same with base building even though I'll most likely stick to a rentable apartment mentioned earlier this year
• I'm not really invested in S42 but I'd be lying if the cinematic didn't change that a bit

Despite my overall careful curiosity towards the project I'd say it was a pretty good Citzen Con. We got a lot of good updates, some features that seem to be pretty advance development wise which might mean they'll indeed come to PU within next year and brought back some hope in the progress.

That said I do have one major gripe - for a project that's suppose to be run as "open development" limiting news through the year and hiding all of this behind S42 anti spoiler policy sucks.
They should either act truthfully and share more meaningful info with us on regular basis or stop pretending this is the "most open development ever" and stick to hoarding all the important stuff for big events. Don't treat us like the idiots we are.

How many of you watched Citizen Con? Any first impressions you wanna share?

Personally while I think all the tech presentations were nice I'm pretty much stuck in "I'll believe it when I can play it on live servers" mode.
Most of this stuff will take months (if not years again) to release so it's kind of hard to actually get hyped about it.

Some random notes about the stream:

• engine trailer was nice, not much to write about it since tech showcases were always good
• graphical updates were cool though the only thing I'm looking for are parts that will improve performance (I'm playing with an ancient CPU)
• really like the realistic audio mode, that's exactly what I was hoping for
• server meshing looks promising, let's hope live implementation goes well (as well as it can anyway)
• destruction system will make combat way more dynamic and frantic. I'm curious how well this will work in actual gameplay.
• resource management looks fun, probably won't see much of it since I prefer smaller ships but it should be a good addition that'll make multicrew ships less of a "best choice" (especially for solo players)
• ship part was whatever. I mean, presentation itself was good, I just don't particularly care about ships.
• I'm a bit mixed on the UI. Usability upgrades are good but I still hate the hologram style used for everything. Star map looked a little clunky but that might've been due to Bone stressing behind controls.

Pretty good start overall. All the demos were neat and showed a lot of long awaited improvements so kudos for that. I'm curious about what awaits us tomorrow.

So if they don't release Pyro at CitizenCon, how far out can they say it will be released without being yet another 2018 announcement?

If they say sometime next year, count on at least 5 years. They really need to be CLOSE with the way they've hyped Pyro.

I thought this was a nice 10 minute recap of what the replication layer stuff is, the plans we know about from way back and where we're at now.
