No need to work on old ships that are paid for when you can just make new ones and get more money. I have accepted the fact that I will probably never see this game completed at this rate. I am 50 yrs old and been a backer since 2016. So at this point I have just pre ordered it for my grandkids and Me playing it finished is now a bucket list item. lol. I figure they will just keep coming up with new things to add and not really ever finfish any of them completely. I am just glad I was not one of the people who jumped in and spent thousands just to realize they are not happy where the game is going currently or where it will end up.

I have vowed not to buy anymore ships u til CIG figures out how to stop ships disappearing from inventory after a patch update. I have lost a total of 7 ships and once I actually realized this number, coupled with the inflation of ship prices, I just can’t muster the energy to grind for ever to rebuy those lost. It would literally take me a year of near-daily grinding.

I'm already done. I have quite a few, but it seems they disappear one per patch. There's going to be a full wipe soon, probably with 4.0 anyway, so as you said, I'm not grinding it out when it will just get lost again.

I love that CIG is releasing new ships, however, what about all the ships in backlog? I would love to see them all get their gold pass, and release some of these ships.

I'm honestly surprised that the next major milestone they want to work towards will be a 1.0 commercial release. With all the jank I still see on Reddit -> Exploding while landing, the unreadable and cluttered UI, and the general instability issues. It's just that there is so much that still seems to be missing for that commercial release. I was expecting at least a road to 5.0 before that.

@Alboravin

17 күн бұрын

Yeeep, this is the comment I was looking for. New ships, features and gameplay loops are of course always welcome...but at some point between now and that 1.0 commercial release CIG really need to polish and fix what they already have in front of them. There's just so many critical game-breaking bugs right now that can sour the mood for even the most ardent of SC players, often wasting massive amounts of prep and travel time, and sometimes even breaking ships with no fix in sight (hello pledged Corsair with a permanently missing left engine that is practically unflyable now). I tried to get two of my friends to play the game with me over the past week and it was largely a failure because, you guessed it - bugs, lag and more bugs with tedious, time-consuming game design as the final nail in the coffin. Nothing quite like clipping through something and dying or your ship suddenly exploding for no reason, and then having to suffer many of the game's time sinks all over again just to get back to where you were. SC for the new/average player is 30 or 40mins of prep time and travelling from A to B to C...for just 5 minutes of action, if that. If the game doesn't fall apart before then. I guess we'll see what they announce at Citcon and further down the line but the PU right now needs a plethora of major hotfixes and I'd even argue the cities need a fundamental rework. How about putting essential kiosks in our personalized Hangars and in the Starport atriums (Commodity terminals, weapons/armor/ammo vendors, food and drink, etc.) and then leaving the rest of the cities for convention centers, EZ Habs, Admin centers, clothes and ship stores...and maybe even have an area for instanced apartments with a commanding view that players can decorate, much like their hangars. Even better: have a district in the city reserved for instanced ground missions - raids on an apartment complex with a different, randomized layout every time, defense of a warehouse from space pirates, rescue hostages in a shopping mall, etc. ...all contracts that can be accepted as mercenary work and they take you to that district of X, Y or Z city, with an instanced mission. CIG really needs to trim a lot of the fat and cut back on the unnecessary time sinks. The vast majority of players don't want empty bottles and medical gowns discarded everywhere, nor do they want to wait 5 or 6 hours to auto-load cargo. Most players also do not appreciate having to run back and forth 10 light years just to pick up the essentials for most gameplay loops...and they shouldn't have to click, drag and press a key more times than is necessary for what should otherwise be a simple, intuitive step. A lot of it is a hotfix away from a solution, but a lot of it also boils down to a serious disconnect between what Chris Roberts and CIG thinks is cool or unique...and what is actually fun, intelligent and respectful of a players' time from a game design perspective.

The improved scanning and target identification are a must have, a lot of newer players this last XT event had trouble identifying friendly versus XT targets. The game is moving in a good direction, as always I'll look forward to seeing older pledge ships come into the game more than new ships designs. I get that they need to fund the game and want to add features prior to some of the ships getting released, but it makes it very hard to want to invest in any of the newer ships when there are folks who have been waiting nearly a decade for ships they've already paid for.

Of the 7 ships I hope we get a new "daily driver" style mid range ship option. Be great if there were tons of those to minimise the min maxing and see variety regularly in transit.

I wish the economy was driven by actual demand, and not what CIG wants it to be. Without demand, only the good stuff will ever get traded.

Does the 7 unannounced ships include the ones teased in the blurred out video? (With the 'Fat Fury' etc.) I could see the one of them being a Crusader Starter.

Do you think that we will be able to modify/replace or upgrade booster thrusters on our ships?

Would be cool if ships like the Polaris and other RSI ships that have the big glass front had some sort of button that could be activated that would drop some sort of metal shutter or cover for the glass area that offers more protection and privacy when not actively being flown.

Yeah, been waiting for a long time for the Railen. I hope my children live long enough to see it.

When i started to play i kinda expected the planets to move on their orbits around the sun. That on itself would make trading more dynamic if quantumfuel was a costfactor.

New ships are cool, but a new Sabre? Don't we have enough already?

I would love to see a starter ship for every ship manufacturer in the future. To really give new players a feel for what every ship maker’s feel and purposes are. But I’m so glad to see so much work going into gameplay features vs ships these days :)

What was that footage on 6:19? It looked like you were firing turrets from a gladius

Looking forward to the new updates, but a little unsure about how the inventory kiosks work at the moment. I'm sure things will get refined/tweaked as times goes on, though

Thanks as always for the updates. About time Crusader has a starter, but curious what it will be geared toward. Always like hearing about new ships coming out but they do need to give some attention to the older ones. Why do certain ships not have a bathroom? Even small ships would have something if only one equivalent to a chem toilet that pulls out from a wall or something. With all the cargo changes coming about, their are certain ships that are basically cargo useless since you would have to carry everything thru doors and down corridors. I am not saying I agree, but I can understand why some are upset with the new shiny ships being sold when older ones have yet to come out or been given a gold pass. It does appear from a far off view that it is a money grab when older ones haven't been updated. Having said all of that, i do look forward to 3.24 and having a functional hanger that is mine. Every time I left some salvage weapon in back of a ship is seamed to turn into a pinball or try to fuse into the wall. To just leave that in a corner until I can put it on another ship....

Hope we get a surprise Zeus CL on 3.24!

Whatever happened to allowing the co-pilot to fire missiles? They said they were going to enable that a few patches ago and then it just never worked.

The work on the starter ships and the new crusader starter is what I'm currently looking forward to.

Would love to see a way to donate a ship to your org so a friend can pull out the ship and use it when you are not online.

Speaking about economy, it would be nice if there was better incentives to clear out waste and scrap from stations. Gimme some of that sweet sweet cargo hauling options.

I’m looking forward to see what other ships are being worked on. Hoping to still see the RSI Galaxy implemented in the near future with the introduction of modular ships and base building soon to come. Fingers crossed.

The scanner gameplay expansion looks interesting. Hopefully it's intuitive but not so shallow that it gets old too quickly.

A scanning update will be nice sometimes it doesn't feel super optimized right now.

Any news from the audio team? I remember playing Freelancer entering a populated part of space hearing all the radio-chatter, filling the game with life...

The ability to place persistent map markers would be nice too.

So can you or can you fire from the pilot stations as that was two answers and not the same

From a player perspective, I want them to focus on finishing the ships we've already paid for but from a business perspective, they need to continue with an influx of new money so they cannot focus purely on the backlog.

wonder since they hid the ship like they did with the pulse on that slide photo and didn't really announce it during the what to expect coming next, maybe the legion is one of the 7

As other mentions - getting closer and closer to have a purpuseful use for larger ships in gameloops. So would be nice to see a focused effort for a function to man larger ships with NPCs - however inferior to a real person they may be.

MMO economies can be extremely realistic and complicated when they're more player-driven. I know Guild Wars 2 actually had a professional economist on staff for a while to handle theirs, maybe SC should do the same.

I like the idea of personal scanners - but I kind of envisioned that more like the Star Trek tricorder. However, if it's something integrated with the suit / helmet even, but specialized (ie, not everyone can have it along with other gadgets) then I could get on board with that pretty easily.

I would love to even see some news about it, let alone release date...

A bit weird if the AI will react to players "pulling the pins" on grenades like that. Unless those nades activate with a loud metallic sound as soon as you to "pull the pin" On the gameplay you can see that it's not even following the finger, but pops off by it self after the animation is done. Even if there is a sound from that, it would never need to be as loud that those AI would hear it and go into combat mode before it's been thrown at them. I hope there is a option to use grenades more stealthy then that...

Being a cap ship I can see the weapons being separate from the pilot station.

Used a connie for the first time a few weeks ago for overdrive. Would love to add one to my hanger!

I really wish they would look at bringing up some of the older ships to a gold standard like the new ones. Thanks for the videos

With all the stuff being introduced it's great to see that qol improvements are coming just as fast.

Let's see how they implement the ping mechanic in FPS, there is the risk it turns into something like a permanent "wallhack" where you cannot be surprised because you always know where everybody is.

I'd like to see the AI working properly. No more NPCs standing on the seats and stuck in the wall. Also good to see the devs are having progression with the Polaris.

FPS scanning and yet in we canont properly have surface mapping in the dark during landing or near the surfaces of structure.

I've been predicting a Crusader starter ship for a long time and I'll be watching with interest to see what they finally come up with.

Polaris getting the torpedoes from another seat is good. Going to see a lot fewer solo ones. Interesting to see how the AI will be at running the stations though

Thanks for the update. With 7 new unannounced ships on their way, here's hoping for more industrial ships 🙂

I'm hoping 3.24 and 4.0 have a lot of synergy to give us a nice image of what's to come afterwards

I've been using Vulkan on my Sapphire Pulse RX6800 (non-XT) for several weeks now with no noticeable problems. Great update!

I am totally for moving the torp controls away from bridge control. I think this really ensures that you need a crew to use the ship properly

I'm guessing that some of the 7 ships could include vehicles like the Renegade. That could count for three of them?

I'm gonna hazard a guess and say the ES is the first Zeus Variant going to final detail. 4.0 is the next major patch, while the next patch does overhaul the cargo system, and the CL would be a good choice to release at the moment, I just feel like they don't to release a ship as highly anticipated as the Zeus for 3.24. I could be wrong though.

So many little things getting the focus they need to make the game much more immersive. also all the new ships I was hoping the galaxy would be getting worked on soon. I cant wait to see that in game

It will be nice to see the new cargo model. I think cargo has needed work for a very long time.

Good to hear the 'normal' weapons on the Polaris are getting a boost... Trouble is, we don't know if it's needed or not until it's available in game. So we might be moaning it needs toning DOWN by the time we get it ;)

My humble little fleet is mostly complete. I think the only new ships that would make me pony up some cash would be a starter Drake miner, a Terrapin fighter variant, or some personal hangar work vehicles. Also, "Yay, Terminator!"

7 new ships, it’s got to be variants on existing, the hornet mk2 variants perhaps, an additional Zeus variant, sabre variant, a ground vehicle. Prob only one completely new ship.

I'm curious to see how quickly everything will be implemented. A lot of things sound very interesting, for example the AI ​​integration.

The Zeus variant is probably the cargo one first then CIG probably will do the bounty hunter one next.

I wanting/waiting to see how the base building pans out .Would love to see the ability to create my own Over and Under ground bunkers/bases , therefore having the ability to bring camoflauge and stealth into my bases ,so not being able to spot them with normal vision but having to use the radar pings to locate them But only in close proximity thus Making it hard to locate them .

I could imagine the Crusader starter ship being a combination of the C1 and the avenger titan

I would love if they make small-ish multi crew ships, something between the vulture and the reclaimer comes to mind.

Some interesting developments, a few of which I've been looking forward too but in general I'm still detecting a lot of stuff that's of lesser importance (like surface creatures etc.) IMO With a 1.0 release closing and a whole line-up of RSI capital ships soon (not to mention current sub-cap multi-role ships) the updates have been lacking in NPC development. Crew AI and even simple combat AI still needs a lot of work to be done that's rather sophisticated as to not feel limited, ridiculous, robotic or basic. Since you will need to be able to interact with crew AI, like give orders/priorities to have them be useful. Obviously there should also be quest givers and other NPCs that intersect with ALL professions for a more immersive verse, but those are relatively more simple as they generally are more scripted or less interactable.

Really enjoyed the insights shared here! The tips are practical and easy to implement. Looking forward to trying them out!

I'm definitely looking forward to the AI and reward changes but while new ships are cool and all, how about we get the docking system fixed or finish up some of the previously promised ships before dedicating more resources to more new ships??

Always good to hear new ships are on the way along with .24 almost being out of evocati

it's kind of crazy when i looked at a 3,000,000 price tag for a upgrade from the starter ship to a c1 or a lancer I thought it was ridiculous. I can knock out a HRT in reasonable time. 5 minutes a mission... but at a payout of 11k that's like... 300 missions... With no slow downs, no breaks, ect that's 25 hours of just straight solid grinding. HOWEVER because I always soft kill my prey i discovered... ships with crargo often have them. They spawned 200k of quantanium and slam in this recent HRT i did. Stripping the ship components and guns meant the HRT (a now taking 30-40 minutes.) put out a payout of 275k!!!! I hope that other missions are like this with lots of possible "bonus payment" if you keep your eyes open. sort of like the chance to find the rarest gems in the game if you frequently to cave diving missions.

I bet some of the new ships are the Hornet MK II variants. Even though i would be disappointed if that is the case, I am excited for the Ghost variant.

Wonder what role the Crusader starter is going to be geared toward. Excited to find out.

Interesting update, agree we need some updates to old ships being bought up to gold standard

I am really stoked for all the new hauling content but i hope CIG fixes also issue’s with a pletora of excisting ships like the Argo RAFT.

Working on making a throttle detent for my X56 and then I'm jumping back into SC!

HOLD ON, if I am solo flying the Polaris I won't be able to use the torps like in the retaliator?

I'm very excited for FPS ping. Hopefully will make tracking down hostiles in bunkers much easier.

I love that the Polaris turrets are getting upsized. Looking forward to getting my orgmates on mine.

I have to wonder how many folks actually buy new ships or just melt and credit them, most of the time it seems like its just power creep with improved versions of what we already have.

All this cool stuff on the horizon, but I would be more happy if the landing pads and com arrays worked. Can’t wait to see all the new stuff and thank you for the updates Bored. 👍

Just want to see the finished version of the Zeus mk2 so one can see if it's worth getting or not D:

Great recap, looking forward to getting fully interactive NPCs.

I just wish there were more missions or gameplay loops. That and a more lived in universe feel. More NPC ships in space, freighters and cargo haulers just out there.

Good progress, meaty report. They still owe us something like a Progress Tracker, which remains completely blank after last November.

I just imagine how confusing it is to keep sequence their code into the latest testing builds. The amount of bugs every new feature adds has to be compounded by each new division adding their own code the baseline. I feel like a game this big fights their own code so much to the point that it's more frustrating for devs than us. But, I am not a software guy.

excited to hear about the maelstrom system advancements. that is one of the foundational systems I am most excited to play with and see how it changes combat and other gameplay loops

Nice update! I patiently await the PTU Wave 1 of 3.23.24. While watching your vid, I was struck by a strange thought. We currently have the Copion and the Morak(?) in game. What will the lore be for those creatures moving from the “creation planet” and populating other planets? Also, after watching the bit of fire on a large ship, I have to ask why can’t one simply open a docking bay door and vent the ship’s atmosphere, which will immediately extinguish all the fires (no oxygen and no heat)?

Can hardly wait to see the Polaris flying about in game. One of my friends has one, its going to be so cool :D
