Old thread:

I thought it was snowing on Cellin but it was just my own shit cloud, how embarrassing

>they can't magically respawn a stolen ship
This is why we can't have decent conversations with cultists around. Aside from the lack of reading ability, they just make shit up that no one actually said to make fun of.
No one is asking for a ship printer. Just because you might not be interested in fencing stolen ships, that doesn't invalidate the gameplay for other players.
It's in your interest to make sure that pirates have plenty to do. If getting a ship registered is some huge hassle, they won't be shooting you while they are doing it.

...

Yo dawg.

>get KO'd
>theres alot of numbers and animations involved here
>how much KO "health" does the player have
Stop trying to make a big deal out of nothing.
They already have all the animations for low health, low stamina, gun animations are no different from any other weapons they do that by the bulk. Everything else is just a few two digit numbers to restrict top speed, drag body to the prison if needed.
And how new are you? They've said at several occasion that captured players will just be replaced by a NPC and get the chance to free their previous character.
What's the next shitstorm? that you can't keep bounty between session?

>olisar will put in a token effort to shoot you down if you're criminal, but still assign you a landing pad and buy your trade goods if you survive
capitalism!

>cultist
The only cult here are the goons who hoped to print LTI ship with obvious exploits or steal ship from stupid npc.
We will have a decent conversion the day the kiddy pirate will grow up and accept piracy will be harder and less sustainable than printing fake ID by the dozen.
Chris love pirate game, he want it to feel real piracy not just "pick side B and get the same perk"

>The only cult here are the goons who hoped to print LTI ship with obvious exploits or steal ship from stupid npc.
Quote anyone who wanted to do this. All I have seen is conjecture about people probably doing this, but no one has ever called for that directly. If they have, point them out.

>no daddy going mental on pirates
>no daddy lap to sit on
>no daddy to punish me because I didn't behave

Why live?

How'd ED on the PS4?

I've only got a shitty laptop for PC. I played ED on a friend's PC and I liked it.

>responding to a BR

>frogposters

there is this one psychopath who gets off on owning other peoples ships so he simply can't accept that you don't get to keep stolen ships between sessions

How do they resolve what CR has said about this though. They went to a lot of trouble to spell out how being a criminal and working with stolen ships was going to change the game for you. If there really is no method to fence stolen ships and it's just dropped loot or "salvage", that's a huge loss. I don't care what the carebear faggots want, CR himself explained how fencing a ship would even work.

user, you are speaking to a carebear faggot. unironic use of the word psychopath is a dead giveaway

I want to know how the "psychopath" retard found his way here.

you can pay some fee to have the ships id hacked or whatever to make it yours for some period of time or something. you can also scrap it for cash. but you can't just keep it.

>dad tries to blend in by calling others carebears

Fuck off schizo.

>you can pay some fee to have the ships id hacked
That should just cost what another ship would cost so there is no exploit. I don't understand why people want to do away with it instead of balancing it. You are supposed to be able to earn everything in game, what difference does it make how you got it, as long as it isn't fucking up the economy?
This isn't about making money.

>space sims aren't about making money

>How do they resolve what CR has said about this though
Because of all the faggots sending in countless questions to them about "If I have a friend who has idris and I take it and he claims it dose I gets to keeps teh idris 5eva?"
CIG probably finally figured out there is a bunch of fuckcunts entirely relying on insurance fraud and ship theft that they should perhaps evolve on their earlier decisions.
Also by removing it maybe they'll buy more ships now.

I mean this specific issue. Fencing ships obviously can't be a career because it would break the economy.
>Also by removing it maybe they'll buy more ships now.
That's like saying if a game gets good enough DRM where you can't pirate it, sales will go up.

>I don't understand why people want to do away with it instead of balancing it.
CIG can't even balance their ship stat page.
What fucking reality are you in where CIG would even remotely be able to balance this mechanic in a sufficient, fair and in-exploitable way?
Because I want to live in that reality.

Where is it, Chris?

3.2, which is 'predicted' for Q2 this year.

It's the pod used for the first manned expedition to Derek Smart's blown out anus.

>What fucking reality are you in where CIG would even remotely be able to balance this mechanic in a sufficient, fair and in-exploitable way?
Maybe I'm over simplifying it, but try this on.

There is going to be a way to register ships in game for regular players.
They will go up to the counter, pay the man X number of UEC, and get their ship ID.
They go about their merry way.

Here is how you solve the stolen ship dilemma.

There is going to be a way to register ships in game for criminal players.
They will go up to the criminal counter, pay the criminal man X number of UEC, and get their criminal ship ID.
They go about their merry criminal way.

All they have to do is make a criminal version of what they are already making for ship buying, call it ship fencing for criminals, and have it cost the same amount. What possible issue could this cause?

From the sound of it the F8 has about the same firepower as a Super Hornet, quite disappointing.

The sound of what?

Again please tell me which fairy filled reality are you in where you genuinely believe CIG would be able to create a game mechanic about ship theft and insurance fraud that wouldn't be horribly broken and completely exploitable.
Because that is a reality I absolutely must live in and it seems like you have internet access there.
They fucking left the URL to a massive game file on a video that lead to a 40GB leak of assets and launched 3.0 in that state.
They made a Gamescom presentation where when a player crashed they had to completely reboot the game and redo everything from scratch and were practically praying on stage nothing went wrong.
Seriously dude fucking wake up I'm sure CIG is going to give us a game but I am in no way believing it will be mechanically perfect or not full of exploits. Doing it this way is probably the best CIG can manage right now.

>They actually try therefore you are delusional
mate they made mining fun on paper, please fuck off to your weebshit you posted for no reason

>please fuck off to your weebshit you posted for no reason
I needed a picture with a fairy.
And mining on paper might be fun and yet it's still not in the game why is that?

>I literally can't think please think for me

>Again please tell me which fairy filled reality are you in where you genuinely believe CIG would be able to create a game mechanic about ship theft and insurance fraud that wouldn't be horribly broken and completely exploitable.
Because you have cultists tier reading comprehension. I'll spell it out again. The stolen ships just need to cost the same as a new ship. Simple. No more exploit. It's literally a criminal label and a different menu. You either pick a ship from a menu and buy it, or steal a ship and take it to a fence and pay the same fee as you would for a new ship. That's all there is to it. That can't be exploited, and it's obviously way more trouble to steal an intact ship than pick it from a menu for the same cost.

The shitstorm is because apparently that's not a thing anymore. Once you log off the stolen ship is gone, no matter what.

It really wouldn't break the economy. We know in addition to continual premiums, you have to pay a deductible to claim a ship replacement. As long as the new hull ID and deductible equal the cost of the ship, there's no exploit, no free money, and pirates can pocket the deductible money as profit.

>he want it to feel real piracy
Right.
Which is why you can stash a stolen ship until the heat dies down then claim it for your personal use.
Oh. Wait

I didn't realize he was that bad. It seemed like he was interacting fine with the community for a while now, and I didn't really pay heed to what he was actually saying or doing.

>what he was actually saying or doing.
You mean fostering an environment of snark and toxicity where spectrum is less of a place to discuss the game than a virtue signalling hugbox with jack boot mods that will ban backers for wrongthink when feedback is supposed to be wanted?

>Toxicity
Fuck off with that tumblr nonsense.
>Spectrum
Completely avoid that place because I don't care to deal with that cancer.

>toxicity is nonsense
>spectrum is cancer
Retards like you are part of the problem. I find it unlikely that you avoid it since you know enough about it that you were compelled to correct me on it.

Yes, your tumblr buzzword is nonsense.
>I find it unlikely that you avoid it
If I were using spectrum, I'd probably be there instead of arguing with an idiot like you.

>tumblr buzzword
You keep trying this ad hominem shit, but you don't argue the point. If you disagree with what CIG is doing or announces, you get shit on and it's inspired and led by how homeless santa acts towards people who have legit questions and want to know more details than the misleading shit he thinks we are just supposed to accept on his good word.

>Ad hominem
You don't know what that means, do you?

You were attacking me for using a buzzword instead of arguing the issue, so yeah, I actually know what it means.

Ad hominem is attacking the person instead of the point. I said to you once to stop using that tumblr nonsense, and then you focused your entire life on that one part of my post.

You still haven't said shit about how homeless santa isn't a complete waste of skin that should be fired today. Keep talking about me though.

>You still haven't said shit about
You might actually be retarded. See

So, if you didn't know shit about it, what are you so defensive for? What got you so triggered?

>Toxicity
>Fuck off with that tumblr nonsense.
This sort of thing amuses me to no end.
Terms or practices in common use or in the vernacular for decades at minimum, yet people always attribute them to the most recent fads and betray their generation.

>you're the dad!
>no, you're the dad!
children, please

best spot to farm arsenic?

YOU'RE NOT OUR REAL DAD WHITEY

sure thing dad

it's pretty much the same, just will not have access to betas

check eddb dot io

circling the drain
spiraling to hell

>ED and all its content now officially worth less than $30 to developer

>cinematic 14 fps
Even when E:D is terrible game Shartizen beats them to the punch everytime

>launching mines from the Anaconda's medium hardpoints has them just exploding on the sides of the ship

fucking epic. Left to collect dust on my SSD again.

>the few sc posters there are on this website are weebs
wow im so surprised

I take it you didn't pledge yourself to anime waifu in ED?

>Veeky Forums was created to discuss anime, manga, and hentai
>posters are weebs
>this suprises user

How do I "god roll" and should I bother with it before the beta release??

Someone post that screenshot of Moot saying weeb content is also for the designated weeb boards.
Filthy creatures need to learn their place.

I've got a FSD god roll. 2 rolls + an experimental mod are better than it.
Should focus on pretty everything else before the changes come into effect.
As far as I'm aware nothing will be a diceroll anymore. Those vodkaniggers thought making everything that can be terrible in a mod be as terrible as possible and everything that can be good in a mod as amazing as possible.

I personally shit on Star:Citizen constantly but if they implement those network fixes and salvage properly they posted on the roadmap I'll never touch E:D again.

Does E:D actually have dogfighting or are the ships so sluggish that you can just jouste?

F for space legs

Agh, I know that they need a constant income for server upkeep, but these Elite cosmetics are overpriced. Getting a ship kit, paint job and weapon colour for my Anaconda would set me back twenty AUD. That's just for one ship...

What said and your hypothetical moot quote are not mutually exclusive

>schizo
daddy found a new word to use and the word is schitzo you dumbfuck

There's dog fighters and heavy fighter ships.

The Vulture is a dog fighter. Turns on a fucking dime.

Anything bigger other than the Corvette tends to be a heavy fighter if you're not used to flying it.

Hello,

i've bought elite dangerous a long time ago and did the grind up til python, but outfitting it for different purposes is quite expensive.

Looking for a quick fix for credits. I've done planet exploring which is quite profitable, but still looking for a faster option. Yeah, i know about the passenger missions 100M+/h, but i started playing exactly the day before it was patched so never got around to it.

Any suggestions?

how do i make elite dangerous fun? i bought horizons on sale and i cant be arsed to play it.

Shoot things.

sothis ceos with your python

Flight assist off sidewinder in high res

thx for the hint, for this to work i need to build up rep before staring right?

>Moot the creator of the site
>says weeb should stay in their designated boards
>not relevant
Holyshit lol I almost feel cheating for giving (you) this (you)

Yes the higher paying stuff need a good rep

>capitalizing moot
get the fuck out of here

What are we running here?

Smuggling? passangers?

lmaooo

high-value passengers, business, luxury

>letraitormootdeeecks
>leparagonmoot

evalute your lives then gut yourselves amigos

Personally I'm doing the normal hauling between those two systems which net me 10m+ per run with python cuz no horizon and its simpler while doing data deliveries to grind rep.

>moot said anime isn't allowed
>actually the opposite is the case
>lol who cares about moot, get a life nerd
I can feel the butthurt radiating from my monitor.

kk maybe ill check it out after I'm done modding 5 G5 dirty drive engines.
These kikes are going to make god rolls impossible for alot of stuff.

>literally said report and hide weebs posting outside of designated weeb zones
>completely ignores that sentence
I can feel the butthurt radiating from my monitor.

>report it if it breaks the rules (avatarfagging)
Man, you're really crap at reading.

I'm not even sure I know what point you are trying to even make at this point. Try again?

>let me perceive what he said in my own way
(YOU)

...

Can the fucking weeb leave the room so the adults can talk about fucking spaceships, please?
is it too late to start grinding rngineers?

No. Probably got another week or 2.

Should focus on Engines and weapons. Now engineers will always have the worst possible effect for negative effects. And you know have to make 4 or 5 of each grade to proceed to the next grade.
kike rats at Frontier should be shot. Espically that retard numale that has a plush snake as a friend.

I think i got level 3 from the farseer inc hag and thats about it. Does the pastebin have a good guide on how to go about it?

There was a fat latino kid in my 11th grade AP Physics class that watched these weeb shows called Full Metal Alchemy and Cowboy Debop. One day he was wearing a shirt to class that had one of those weeb shows on it and a couple black kids started ripping on him. He said, "shut the fuck up" to them. He kept saying it as well even though they said to, "cut that shit out" so he got jumped after class. He was crying and screeching in the hallway afterwards for a good 15 minutes.

Probably one of the best days of High School banter I ever saw.
