Hello!

Let me nip this in the bud: there's no intent to "hide" a patch to release it for Americans; from our perspective, releasing at this time of night on a Thursday would actually be ideal as the QA and CS teams in the UK will just be coming online.

If you check back to our nightly Arena Commander V0.9 status update post, you may be able to figure out what happened. We had staged Release Candidate 2 on the server and then started to upload Release Candidate 4. Unfortunately, that triggered a script that pushed Release Candidate 2 public.

The server started pushing the less desirable RC2 backup patch to Launchers. There was a brief window before we looped back the script when users might have been able to log in to RC2... but in those cases only the local Hangars will work properly since the server-side aspects of V.9 hadn't been deployed. Anyone who patched in that brief amount of time will be prompted to patch back to V.8 if they leave the game.

Still waiting for them to fix and re-enable private matches with friends. Looking forward to this feature, to start practicing working with others in combat.

New patch should fix the no match found bug, not sure if it re enables private matches.

you also now need to select the ships you want tto see in your hangar
you do this from the CIG website on the hanger page
each hanger has a nummber of rooms that can hold different size ships
you then drag the ship from the list on the left to the room it will fit into

the number and size of ship is shown in the room box ie SSS/M/L

can hold 3 small ships 1 medium or 1 large

Apparently the anti-immersion crowd finally won a major victory due to resources and code issues and how much of a resource hog the HangAr has become.

I personally didn't like having to spend 4 minuets running 12 bays down just to see or get in a ship.

on RTV ben said that the max ship limit was not in the plan and was introduced by the contractor as they did not think people would have PC's able to handle more ships

ben realy did not sound happy about it and had asked then to add a work around so that we could see all our ships if the PC was up to it

Here is the thing. I don't want to spend 10 minuets lagging through my HangAr just to get next to a ship. It's all immersion I don't need or want. It also supports the micro transaction of the HangAr buggy. Want to travel faster between ships in your infinite HangAr, than give us 20.00 bucks for a digital bauble until we actually launch the game live and you can earn one with in-game credits (hopefully).

One thing that has turned me off to SC and the business side of RSI is they ultimate un-neccesary cash grab still going on when they have the funding in hand to deploy the title as promised and support it for the first year. I get trying to strike while the hype/iron is hot, but frankly Sandi and the rest of the business people at RSI stink like Drakiss after being rode hard and put away wet.

It's the prime reason I stopped following the game and stopped giving them any money at all. They got there pound of flesh and stack of cash. They don't listen to anyone who isn't a white knight or an immersion monkey. The continually shut out the crowd looking forward to the actual core of the game "SPACE COMBAT". We are the after thought not the core customer, once I realized they just wanted the PvP'rs money up front and didn't really want our commentary, I completely disengaged.

I guess the latest CR comment of

"Star Citizen is lot more than just dogfighting, and the fact that so many backers have added Reclaimers to their fleet confirms my feeling that a working universe is much more interesting than just a battlefield."

will not help then.

I am looking forward to a more complete world but as the game was originaly fully funded at $22m and they are now double heading towards trebble this value you do wish they would start getting more of the game made and out the door than they have so far

at least PVP in SC will have more meaning than in AA

I agree. CR wants what he wants, and he isn't making the GSGE, he is enriching himself by the vehicle which is his project and has been his MO since way back in the early days.

The crux of the problem is that the unwashed masses that the PR machine is listening to is the most vocal bunch of terribads. They want stupid shit like physically having to unload your cargo and working toilets rather than a game that has the best physics engine, hit detection, net code and server management while looking amazingly luscious and dense, all while being a bullet proof rock solid client that doesn't crap all over our rigs.

This is where the people around CR come into play and why Sandi and Ben suck in my book because this is the type of shit they want, not what the paying consumer wants the originally funded this title before the unwashed late comers showed up and demanded a completely different game.

This is why SC doesn't get another red cent of my money until we have a live title that is so amazing, why wouldn't you throw money at it because you are going to be playing it for the next long term fordable future.

Bottom line. RSI (Sandi) got our money early on. They know we aren't giving them in large part any more money after we spend a wad on it, so they are pushing the game the new crowd wants to get there money.

Let's see them actually start delivering on all the promises.

That above statement in verbatium got me a 3 day ban. Not allowed to ask for completion of paid for content or question his Holiness, Mr. Roberts.

Can't wait to absolutely shit all over these kids once the live pew-pew starts.

another SC year down on Friday

the FPS is to be shown at PAX

so figuring that FPS will need a place to shoot people I am hoping that we will get some kind of planet based area outside the hangar. some thing to show that there is more to the game than just selling ships

and yes there will be more ships on sale friday

Ya I already got my AMD Mustang Omega today. Looking forward to the concept of the 890 design. An exterior hangar platform for an idris or a station bar would of been nice. I guess I'll live with being able to play private matches with friends now.

We have been asking for a Station bar like in Privateer for some time now. I would say at least 10 months of saying they should have in-game gambling as a progressive slot that doesn't violate any State, Federal or International gaming laws.

I mean who wouldn't want to hit the Galaxy 500 Jackpot?

The bar is also where you use to pick up all your smuggling runs and jobs, so why wouldn't they want to incorporate something that actually worked 15 years ago?

just passed on the Origin 890 JUMP - LTI


looking forward to the MUSTANG sale as its a concept sale it should have LTI
and as its a basic starter ship like the aurua it should be easy to use the cross chassis upgrade system to get any LTI ship
that's my hopes any way

Mustang does not have LTI, I already have the Mustang Omega that AMD coupon code one. Nice looking ship comes with 2months insurance. Snagged a couple AMD codes and got some free games rather cheap.

They really have turned hype into positive cash flow. This is why I won't give them a plug nickle more until they deliver on an actual game that doesn't suck.
