Apparently as a guest I can put 1000 Polarises in my cart for a grand total of $750,000. Think of how many limited edition Porsches that could buy. I thought the Polaris was a limited edition? Or just limited to as many as they can sell?

that room looks expensive.

the format looks rather saturated

And I hate the celebrity-tv style.

why are they wasting so much words on reflection on an event in the past

they talk like derek smart writes his blogs.

Chris R looks like he climaxes from the praise.

Why does Chris R look soo small?

what's in the bellies the roberts brothers are developing?

why do two elephants grow long hair?

Whenever Tony Z talks, Chris R looks like he wants to murder him.

You can see that the IT guy sandwiched between Chris R and Tony Z wants to be somewhere else.

I always read them, mostly it's stuff people who read the thread know but occasionally you get drama bombs like Star Marine being cancelled in 2015, the 20k coffee machine and the dispute with the contractor that was building the entrance of the new LA office to look like spaceship. Plus lots of other things I'm not mentioning, like the unfortunate firings last year etc.

I think Derek's blogs are great because when the media eventually covers all this in detail they'll at least have a really good source of information in a much better format that this massive thread.

@7.00
Q:
In the slide specifically from 3.0 to 4.0, there was no mention of ships docking together. When will we be able to launch our snub craft from larger ships? When will we be able to transfer fuel or cargo between larger ships?

Chris Roberts
Ah, so ahh... NOT in 2.6 but we are, uhm, aiming to get that functionality in between 3.0 and 3.1 so ah, refuelling is definitely... especially when you... when we move to 3.0 and we're in a full Stanton system, you know people are gonna travel and maybe run out of fuel, perhaps they're gonna have to get... REFUELLED and we really wanna get the docking of say the MERLIN into the CONSTELLATION done... so we've been working on sort of DOCKING with a bigger ship which is what we need for the SQUADRON 42 stuff when you come in and land, say on the IDRIS, so it FALLS out of that, so depending on where that ends up will depend on whether it's in 3.0 or 3.1



EXACT SAME question was answered in 10FTC March 7th 2016


10 for the Chairman: Episode 78 Mar 7, 2016


Q: We already have a flyable Constellation and a flyable P-52 Merlin. How far are we from a workable tech for docking and undocking? Is this something we can expect in the near future or is this a functionality planned further down the line?

A: Yeah ah you know I really wanna actually get the fifty... P52 and the Constellation, ah, to WORK together cos they're, they're MEANT to... to... work together, it is probably something we will ah, start to work on with ah, Craig after... Craig Gransell who's done the sort of landing system, he's still got some... landing system stuff that he's wrapping up for Squadron FORTY TWO and some... enhancements for Star Citizen and that, this will probably be the next... TASK to get this working it's not THAT difficult, I mean basically you just kinda
wanna get... it's just like the landing system really you get in a certain area and then you say Ok... DOCK and then we'll just sorta bring you in and CONNECT you and the Merlin will be attached to the Constellation and then, hopefully you can get out and you should just be able to enter into the... back of the Constellation so ah, I do wanna (incoherent mumble) cos it's ah, NOT... that difficult technically to get working it's really just people have had a whole bunch of other things they're working on first, ah for instance you know we... ah... you know... HAVEN'T SHOWN IT YET, but you know we have an IDRIS FLYING AROUND and you can land inside it and take off inside it and, em, walk around it and it's pretty cool so um, ah, that was sort of the higher priority and we've still got some stuff to do on the bigger ships in terms of ah....


TLDR;
- According to Chris they were wrapping up the docking tech for Squadron 42 and had an Idris flying around that you could land on in MARCH

- It's now OCTOBER and Chris is saying they are still working on the docking and landing for Squadron 42 and the same tech for the PU will fall out of that when they get it done.

Q
Star Marine. Will we have AI combat modes similar to the Vanduul Swarm?

Erin Roberts
Eh, we certainly will, but it won't be part of the first iteration. The first iteration is basically the balancing, basically what we're working on is all towards PLAYER vs PLAYER, so we're REFINING um... you know the ANIMATION SETS... you know um... and... you know... the... the COMBAT MOVES when... you know, the way... and... it's sort of uh... sort of first... person straight first person... um, you can... you can basically you know... use COVER and all those kinda stuff and... and so forth, THROW GRENADES, the works, you know, it's that kind of level so that's what we're... that's what we're PLANNING to get players into the game and then THAT'S what will come out with 2.6 but then shortly after that, then... when... when the... when the AI come online... the AI basically will be in the game, PROPERLY, first... first... the first... the first you'll see of that will be in 3.0

Well actually... you'll probably... see some in SQUADRON as well... but basically that... when the first sort of um... um... version were people will PLAY will be in 3.0 so THAT will be a time when we'll actually probably have a MODE, where you can go and actually find some of your buddies and actually fight AI, and have that sort of like LEVEL of going in and you know trying to take stuff out and eh uh ah
