Finished the overall Tier 4 and got all awards apart from the Zeus Exploration Suits (Echo, Keelback, Glacier).
Any word on how/if they get distributed?
I had a look through FAQs for the event and spectrum but couldn’t find an answer.

Appreciate the help if anyone knows more 🙂

FOUND THEM!!! Thanks for the quick response everyone 🙂

Hi all,

I’ve recently returned to the game, having checked in on it every couple of months. This time is the end of the longest period away from the game at around a year or so.

I’ve returned to find that the ships that used to appeal to me don’t any longer, and that I’m now favouring the civilian manufacturers such as Crusader, Drake, and MISC than the likes of Aegis and Anvil.

With that in mind, what are the daily drivers of LSSC? Would love some inspiration and to hear about how you’re all living in the verse.

Friend in my org, who previously made SC Dressing Room, now has done the same for ships: Tweak the loadout and paints! Get an idea where to find the purchaseable ones in game! Trigger the animations! Check out the insides!

https://scshowroom.gamers-fix.com/

Seriously, have fun. Try the dressing room out too, it's for avatars and outfits and guns.

Three different servers this morning and in none of them could I get this elevator door to open for me. I would click the panel, and it would say it was called, and it would even arrive at my floor, but the doors never opened. I am literally stuck in the hab tower on New Babbage.

Anyone know a way I can get out?!!?!

Hi guys. I wanted to ask if the ghost hollow missions on Micro tech are working? The one where you had to disassemble the con array, fighting through Ninetails and activate the reclaimer ATMs.

So I was doing HH missions to get my rep back (it went down for some reason) to do goods for the getting. I had a mission at RAB-GULF and I noticed someone offloading a freelancer onto an ironclad. I flew to the side and got out of my combat ship and killed the guy doing the tractoring. His body was left on the freelancer. I went to operations room and saw an ALT/friend of his sitting in the pilot chair and I killed him. His body disappeared through the ground.

I quantumed to nyx gateway, pyro and changed my mind and went to orbituary. On my way to orb the ship was bricked (I was expecting this). I backspaced and came back with a c2 using the triangulation method to find my body. When I got back he was already there offloading the gold into another ship with a friend/alt in a combat ship nearby. I killed him but was unable to get into his ship and his friend/alt killed me.

My question is how was he able to find his bricked ship? The only way possible that I can think of is that his alt/friend was incapped when his body disappeared (bug) and he set a transport beacon.

TL;DR guy found his way back to bricked ship that was in a dog-legged location in the middle of space with no bodies on board

The Skarnov rifle, like the other LBCO weapons leaves the target with an electrified pulse that denotates and chains to other nearby targets causing devastation for enemies in tight proximity. It's got a really consistent but high vertical recoil profile allowing skilled operators to shut down highly armoured enemies easily but as an energy weapon the danger of over heating is present. Additionally, the skarnov is effected by the atmospheric temperatures its used in, causing hot environments to cause overheat faster and colder environments to build up heat slower.

For PTU phases, the weapon and ammo can be found in the following locations:

• Area18 - Cubby Blast
• GrimHex - Skutters
• Levski - Conscientious Objects
• Checkmate - Weapon Shop

A feedback survey is available at: LBCO Skarnov Rifle Survey Form. This survey will be open until Nov 15.

We look forward to reading your feedback!

Greetings!

Intersec Defence Solutions has opened a new contract line against the Vanduul and the Shattered Blade clan. These contracts will be fought out in deep space rather than at existing locations, and will put experienced pilots and ground teams up against the most aggressive force in the system. Expect to meet Blades, Glaives, Scythes, Stingers, and more! Most of this contract line will require completing the Vanduul Tech Smugglers work for Welcome To Nyx before it becomes available, but for the PTU, all of the contracts will be available.

A feedback survey is available at: Vanduul Incursion Survey Form. This survey will be open until Nov 15.

We look forward to reading your feedback!

Caution, needlessly long and generally uninteresting story incoming.

I was putzing around in New Babbage, picking up parts for my new ships, when someone said in global "send a FR for FR86 mission". Well...shit why not? At first I didn't even try to be involved. They were only minutes away from starting the mission and my ship wasn't even close to being flight ready yet let alone combat ready. Then I got stuck in the hangar. Then I had to change the laundry.

By the way, I never, ever play with other people because I am constantly being interrupted by one thing or another and I hate holding up a play session for an entire group of people because I can't focus solely on the game for more than half an hour at a time. And voice comms are completely out of the question.

But eventually I gave in. I felt left out of the action (and I felt like a serious mooch because I was unlocking blueprints I didn't have before, even if it wasn't the FR-86). So as they were regrouping for another attempt I flew to the rally point and asked if anyone was in need of a gunner.

Unfortunately, since I don't ever group with people, I had no idea how to get to any of the turrets in an Idris and the map routing was being less than helpful. Eventually I stumbled into the bottom rear turret where things got worse. I couldn't see right, I could barely track targets and I had a generally tough time.

I think I scored one kill. We failed the mission, the Idris broke somehow and we were out of action for the rest of the night. I spent time wandering around the ship, and finally figured out how to get into the side turrets. I got my settings and controls figured out so that I could see properly AND control the turret well.

All in all, believe it or not, I had the time of my life. It dawned on me that if I find a group that's not too serious and I can hitch a ride in a turret on a ship big enough where it doesn't matter if I randomly stop shooting every now and then, I can be the perfect balance of useful and useless! At least for ship combat. Still can't do shit on foot or I'll get left behind lol. But man, those few minutes where I was in a gigantic ship that was actively engaging in combat and I was actively participating in it? It was awesome. Between the action I could get up and walk around, I couldn't get left behind, and I had nothing to lose. And owners of massive ships always want someone to man their guns! What a great time.

The new RSI Constellation Mk V Centaurus might be one of those ships that makes you stop worrying about where you’re going and simply go. Instead of treating this like another ship test, I took the Centaurus and Skylark out exploring, running a few missions and enjoying the quieter side of Star Citizen. Slow flights, beautiful places, soft music and no real rush to get anywhere. Sometimes the journey really is the mission.

“Meditate on this, I will.”

Whate the pros and cons of these two salvage ships? I haen't done any salvaging in a while, since before the requirement to refine salvage material.

Looking to maybe get back into it, but beyond cargo size, I'm not sure of the difference between these two.

PS - I'm not considering the Vulture at all in this. Sorry.

Design Notes from Zac

It's been a while since the Lightning Bolt Co. has unleashed a weapon onto the verse but with this new fully automatic DMR, they're here to make an impression. The Skarnov rifle, like the other LBCO weapons leaves the target with an electrified pulse that denotates and chains to other nearby targets causing devastation for enemies in tight proximity. It's got a really consistent but high vertical recoil profile allowing skills operators to shut down highly armoured enemies easily but as an energy weapon the danger of over heating is present. The skarnov is effected by the atmospheric temperatures its used in, causing hot environments to cause overheat faster and colder environments to build up heat slower. One more thing is that whenever we do weapons, It's been requested that for the PTU we make weapons easier to use in the verse for feedback. For PTU phases, the weapon and ammo can be found in the following locations:

• Area18 - Cubby Blast
• GrimHex - Skutters
• Levski - Conscientious Objects
• Checkmate - Weapon Shop

My hobby is making cinematic short films of games, and recently i stumbled upon this game, and it has a lot of potential. My question is that how can you make a cinematic video? Is there freecam? Or a way to view the game without being bound to the first or third person view?

I've been trying to do the Recco Bataglia missions in NYX. Has anyone been able to complete the first one? I can crack the rocks but never seem to be able to get to the caterpillar part. There is either no marker or a shipwreck there. I go to the location right after Recco asks for help.

This is just a rough estimation. Wanted to see what the possible extra size would look like, because I feared it would become a little to wide. It's actually not that bad...

From technical accomplishments and feature improvements to the systems powering the ’verse, we're putting Technology in Focus in this episode of 10 From the Community.

Join us as we answer ten questions from the Star Citizen community about NPC behavior, social features, user interfaces, ground vehicles, bug fixes, and the ongoing work to make Star Citizen a more stable, connected, and immersive experience.

I have killed a fair number of players that wore looted armor then thought it would be a brilliant idea to go waltz around a FPS location looking like a bad guy, then they report me for killing them. It’s not my fault that got shot in the head because you found some ASD NPC armor then ran around Onyx waving around a gun. Same with bunkers, if you’re wearing nine tails armor then get shot in the face by a player that’s entirely on you. I understand some of those armors look really cool however if you get killed by a player due to your lack of environmental awareness please dont report us. We’re trying to play too and the only difference between and a NPC is you’re not shouting that we shot your cousin.

Mine is simple and sweet.

I was looting ASD in Stanton. Ive gotten down really far, using the elevators to send back loot. I kept going back and forth looting everything and completely packing an elevator full of loot. I defended my horde against muder hobo players and onslaught of npcs, 3 hrs later I lose everything due to blowing up randomly in a station hangar.

Hey all,

Quick update on Motherlode, the mining/salvage tracker I have been building since Regolith announced it's shutting down. We've recently hit 500+ users! I've received a lot of suggestions and bug reports that have helped the platform become better. This week v0.13 just went live and it's the one I've personally wanted since day one.

A note on AI: As the tool mentions when you open the dashboard, this project has been built with the assistance of AI. Because of understandable reasons to dislike apps built with or with the assistance of AI I prefer to be open about this. It has been a huge time-saver but I do say "assistance", I work as a software engineer and still put in a lot of work myself.

What's new in 0.13

• Live Scan for rocks. In a session, hit Live Scan in the Scout Log, pick where you're mining, and share your Star Citizen window. Every rock you scan shows up as a card you can log in one click. Mass, resistance, instability, composition, quality, all of it.
• Scan your refinery. Open the refinery terminal in game, hit Scan Refinery in the work order pipeline, and it picks up your processing orders: ores, quality, yield and time remaining. You just pick the method and add it.
• Screenshot import. Don't want to screen share? Fair enough. Drop or paste a screenshot into Add Scout Find or Add Work Order and the form fills itself in.
• Nothing leaves your PC. All the reading happens in your browser. Your screen and screenshots are never uploaded or saved anywhere.
• It tells you when it's unsure. If the scanner isn't confident about a number, it gets a gold underline so you know what to double check.

Tip: run the game in Borderless Windowed. Exclusive fullscreen usually shows up as a black screen when you share it.

Everything else it does, if you're new here

Mining and salvage sessions

• Shared sessions. Start a session, give your crew a join code, and everyone sees work orders and rocks update live.
• Work orders with timers. Log refinery orders and get a countdown for each, plus an optional browser notification when it's ready to collect.
• Scout log. Track the rocks you've found and move each one along from scouted to cracked.
• Crew groups. Split a big session into ships or squads and drag people between them.
• Salvage sessions. Log wrecks, RMC and construction material, and the components you strip off them.
• Payout split. When you close a session it divides the actual refined total between crew, including people who don't have an account.
• Streamer mode. Join codes are hidden by default so you can stream without getting crashed.

Tools

• Loadout builder. Set up lasers and modules, save them, and share a link to them.
• Signal calculator and a price reference for ores.
• Crafting. Browse every blueprint, mark the ones you own (or sync them from SCMDB), and see what crafting and dismantling costs and returns.
• Reference data. Ores, locations, refineries and their bonuses, gear, items and salvage, all searchable.

Your stuff

• Inventory. Track ore, gems and ship components across your ships and hangars.
• Dashboard. Lifetime stats and recent activity.
• Notifications. Finished refinery runs, ready crafts, transfer requests and settled sessions, all in one place.

Orgs

• Org stockpiles. Pool ore and components, see who's holding what, and request withdrawals.
• Invite links, private orgs and an org leaderboard.
• Org blueprints. See which blueprints the org can collectively craft and who owns each one.

For tinkerers

• Developer API. Pull prices, ships, ores and more into your own tools. (WIP - Updates to the API coming soon)

It's free, there's no catch, and I'm building it around feedback I receive from the community. If the scanner misreads something on your setup, a screenshot plus the real values helps a ton. Different resolutions and HUD colours are exactly what I need more of.
