@Diddums @GazzaGarratt @Plumbers Crack @tronic44 @crispymorgan @BO7H B4RRELS and anyone else interested, let me have your thoughts. We need: a name, and need to decide what our primary and secondary activities are going to be (freelancers, bounty hunters, piracy, smuggling, exploration, mining, etc etc) organisation archetype whether the system should consider our organization as a roleplaying organization a short phrase or slogan for our organization (this will be used as our organization tagline) Check the link below and select 'create' to view the options. http…

I must admit I’m enjoying this game a lot, especially now I’ve got to grips with the mechanics and warp drive. Some servers I’ve been on have been awful but you can normally tell straight away if something is up. Have only really done deliveries, apart from one mission yesterday where Phil and I were floating round a broken ship. The animation for getting in and out of ships is very broken, I’m a little disappointed at this part tbh. I’ve glitched into the side of my ship at point because of it. I know I know it’s an Alpha. I pimped myself out with a new suit, now just need to save enough money for some ships. Can we share money togethe…

The slightly delayed quarterly update 3.9 is being tested by the community before dropping to live. One of the new additions is the need to eat and drink but another pretty major addition is: Prison 😵

I'll use this thread to provide some basic tips that aren't always apparent. In no particular order 1. Switching between 1st and 3rd persons = F4 key 2. Free look while in 3rd person = hold down Z key while you move with mouse 3. Before taking off and landing, check in with landing services via comms in MobiGlass = F1 4. Check fuel status after a while. Can refuel at plenty of places. 5. If space cops come at you, immediately stop and you'll avoid a massive fine. 6. Best early missions are deliveries as they are good earners and help you get your bearing in the universe 7. In the MobiGlass contract menu there are tabs…

Good news @Plumbers Crack the patch coming in a week or so will finally bring persistence. Limited but it includes whatever you earn being kept between patches, so I'm happy.

Nice one for last night, we had@Diddums @Plumbers Crack@GazzaGarratt@tronic44 Still early days as you guys get used to the controls and navigation etc Didds got lost in a cave system looking for a dead body, I'm not sure if he ever managed to get out of there... Dave exhausted every last ounce of patience. Hope Rich's issue with contacts is sorted as that was a pain in the arse. Lee loaded my Cutlass Black up with 6 different delivery missions but we only completed 2 of them as I had to get off. I'm going to stick close to Lee as he has a nose for earning credits [emoji847] Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

Hello. Diddums here. I did some thinks. Think no. 1 is about what I own, which is a Mustang Alpha. I like this ship, it's my baby and it was gifted to me so it's staying in my fleet and will be upgraded to the max over time so I can shred noobs with it. That said, I want another ship. The Mustang can't hold packages which seems a bit meh, but it can fight, it can get out of shit and it can carry a few items of cargo (packages and cargo are two different things, one goes in your cargo bay and requires no interaction, the packages are little hand held items which you just fling anywhere in your ship. A bit like Death Stranding in space. I also understand that t…

Ok let me just put this out there, when playing games like this, I often go in to "combat mode" which is when I go all quiet and put all my focus in to winning. I've never told you this before but it's the reason I occasionally go quiet on GTA V, it's because I've cranked the tunes up to max, voices muted, and full on attack mode. Nothing matters but the kill, and it's always accompanied by some badass music, so if I go quiet and start attacking shit, now you know why. It's not 'cos I don't love you, it's because in approx two minutes you'll be dragging my dead corpse from the remains of my ship whilst laughing at me.

The Star Citizen convention took place over the weekend. I'll post some videos when I get on my PC. For now if you create an account on the website, you get access to the game, plus a ship, and it's worth a trial to see if you can run it at least.

Thought it would be best to have a separate thread for these @phil bottle. I a;ready have version 3.2.0 so was expecting it to update it to 3.7.0 but it isn't offering the update, just wants to start the game. Also, its saying i've only got 3.4GB of RAM available and I need 8GB to make it run smoothly. However, I have 16GB so where do i check this to optimise my PC for it?

The latest build is now live. It's about 5GB. I'll copy the patch notes in the next post. Remember to delete the 'User' folder. When you open the launcher, wait a bit, there's a new version of that too and it will prompt you to install it.

@Diddums joined me in the vast tranquillity of space, last night. We spawned together at Port Olisar, a base in the Stanton system. I took Didds to the gun shop and he bought himself a nice assault rifle. As my ship, the awesome Drake Cutlass can take a crew, we decided to take it out and put Diddums into the turret. First mistake here in that I didn’t show him how to use work the turret guns properly. So when we hyper spaced into a mission objective, I was busy trying to explain that, and didn’t heed the pirates who went on to attack and destroy my ship. Schoolboy error So, we respawned back at Port Olisar and this time I took my Drake…

Star Citizen Patch 3.3.0 Alpha Patch 3.3.0 has been released and is now available! Patch should now show: LIVE-986748 It is strongly recommended that players delete their USER folder for the Public client after patching, particularly if you start encountering any odd character graphical issues or crash on loading. The USER folder can be found (in default installations) at C:\Program Files\Roberts Space Industries\StarCitizenPTU\LIVE. Known Issues Players will have to enable VOIP manually in the mobiGlas comms when joining a server, but doing so may introduce some instability. Mission markers no longer appear after using crash recovery. Turrets without gyro…

This trailer just shows how much backing there is for the game. The amount of well-known actors and actresses in this is impressive. I'm really looking forward to when this game finally gets there. What's not to love about Gary Oldman?! Even the enemies look impressive.

This is their best release yet, the longer the video goes on, the more epic it gets. Will be available in the next week I think.

Star Citizen Patch 3.1.0 We are excited to announce the release of Alpha Patch 3.1.0 to all Star Citizen backers. This update marks the first of four quarterly patches planned to be released this year, and the inaugural success of the new delivery schedule. At the start of the year, our internal teams underwent a restructuring to allow for easier coordination and focus on a particular aspect or feature. Thanks to this new approach, the development team was able to more efficiently tackle the goals outlined for 3.1 on our Production Roadmap and introduce several new gameplay features and optimizations to Star Citizen. Starting with Alpha 3.1, players will find new…

The lovely Mr Bottle bought me this for my birthday and I just fired it up for the first time. I wandered around the space station thingy for a bit but holy hell does it run like dogshit on my PC. i5 2500k @ stock clocks, 8gb ram, R9 290 4gb. Turned every bell and whistle off, lowest graphics settings, the lot. Still a juddery stuttery mess. Am I missing something here? Do I need to increase the voltage on the flux capacitor? A couple of things I did notice in my brief stint: Why do we have oxygen levels on a bloody space station? Someone needs to kick the maintenance crew in the nuts, that's not acceptable. My space suit thingy has little boo…

I'm going to use a lot of Bored Gamer's vids, there are other good SC vloggers but he talks about everything, warts and all, which I like. He's going to be doing a monthly status report, the first of which is below. You will hear him refer to Arena Commander and Star Marine, so I'll explain. In addition to Star Citizen (multiplayer universe), and Squadron 42 (single player game, not released yet) there are two other extras that we currently have access to. Arena Commander This is a mode to practice flying and combat. It's actually the very first proper playable game they ever introduced and it's where I learned to fly. You…

Star Citizen put out a lot of information on a weekly basis about what they're up to and it can be a bit of a trawl. This chap below condenses a lot of said information and is a great resource for keeping up to date with progress.

So, the single player game is also coming along nicely. I will have access to it as an early backer but any new players need to buy it separately. I think it's an extra £15. Looks awesome.

There's a variety of missions, private investigations. delivering cargo, etc to various locations in the universe. It's all dangerous work as you may come up against pirates both human and AI. Those with slow or lightly armoured ships are at a bit of a disadvantage. There is a way however, of making money just by trading commodities between different hubs of the starting spawn Port Olisar. It'a a bit of a sweaty option, but it's an option if you're having money worries, and you don't even need to get in your ship.

Quite impressed here. I wasn't expecting this to go live for a few weeks. Hats off to them all. It is finally all starting to look like a proper game. There's two parts to Star Citizen. The persistent universe (Star Citizen), and the single player game (Squadron 42) which you now have to buy separately if you want them both. There's a sale on at the moment and you can currently get into the Star Citizen universe for £33, link below, which will provide you with a ship and a hangar. https://robertsspaceindustries.com/comm-link/transmission/16343-Holiday-Special Star Citizen Patch 3.0.0 Alpha Patch 3.0.0 has been released…
