Only ships larger than Destroyers are persistent.

That we know of for now. Like the Idirs-M was the largest ship that would ever be sold during the 1st 24 hour live stream back in 2012. There is a good possibility if this game grows exponentially over next year to 2 years before release they might release a larger ship for pledging :)

Lowtax thanks you for your :15bux:. Post in non-SC threads/lurk more.

I had been lurking around these forums for a while, and just decided to register before the end of days occurs.

$39.80 USD I guess is affordable one time, for everything including a picture :) at least compared to what CR has charged me over the last 2 years ^_^

Shankerz was the guy in the brown sea who spent a month or so making GBS threads all over the single LGBT thread permitted by the Mods, telling them to stop "shoving it (IE: THE GAY) in everyone's face" and that gay people shouldn't be so "blatant" about it. He's also an impressively unoriginal troll, and is very very convinced that he is an Internet bad-rear end.

Other than the raging homophobia, he should fit in just fine around here.

O look the tears and crying. Glad to see the usual carebears are here to pull out the usual victim card.

Hah, Skankerz "Its not homophobia its trolling" brand of comedy was pretty entertaining. Its nice to see the brown sea injecting new blood into this thread. It was getting a little stale from the same people going after each other. Its also fun to see Widestancer back but sad that she's just posting the same poo poo here as in the eve thread. Wheres the originality?:( **Nevermind its a sig lol.

I wonder how long this no stretch goal thing is going to last before the brown sea raises enough froth to bring them back. I knew they'd hit 65 from the sale, but 66 is somewhat impressive. Kind of amuses me that some of the new 'goals' now are to re-define how mechanics work to bring them more inline with how the community thought they worked to begin with. Not that its a bad thing, because it needs it, just funny.

It's ok Wulfpup someday everyone has to grow up and learn to troll :)

Since modularity will be a thing, what I want to know is will the goons be able to swap out all of the Javelin's main guns for nothing but missile launcher racks? Might as well go full Caldari™ and just missile boat everything.

I don't care how good a ship's FCS/Gunnery section is, but if a shitfucktillion missiles are heading towards you, there's probably no recourse to intercept them.

Interesting concept but certin hard points can not be switched out for pylon hard points (missile attaching hardpoint). Example the large rail gun on the Idris-M can not be switched for a torpedo launcher. On the Javelin destroyer I would say the large ship to ship weapons won't be able to be switched to pylon points. Of course most of this is speculation until more info is released.

Before I download however many gigs of patches, is this poo poo any fun to play yet?

Last time I tried the handling on the ships was pretty bad. I guess there was a patch to address that, but is it good now? Is multiplayer actually enjoyable?

It's not bad... most people just crash into you tho since they lack skill. Currently the most OP setup is a hornet trainer decked out with 2 X Omnisky VI on wingtip 2 X Omnisky VI in ball turret up top. 2 X Omnisky III in the nose and 2 X Omnisky III in the conard turret. Due to a bug only the Omnisky III and the Nuteron guns will work in the nose and conard for longer then 30-45 sec of firing. All others will work for a few sec then shut off after 45 sec.


Also another OP build is the 350R. Currently it is bugged and when people try to target you their targrt reticle for you is like 300% bigger then your ship. Its like trying to throw a paper airplane down from the top of a stadium and hit a player :p extreamly hard to do.

CIG has already demonstrated that there's no need to finish the game in order to extract funding. $100 million is not out of the question, and given CIG's average intake of $3 to $4 million per month we'll likely see that level by CitCon 2015.

I think Chris has bigger aspirations. CR is very ambitious type of man based on his prior jobs. I foresee him taking the IP of Star Citizen to Star Wars levels, with movies books, and maybe even rides at some amusement park. With everything being linked together.
