I can highly recommend anyone using a HOTAS to go to this thread: https://forums.robertsspaceindustries.com/discussion/110454/guide-actionmap-and-controller-mapping/p1 and re-do their configuration. I've moved roll to my foot pedals and set yaw to by my sticks' x axis and the I am much, much better at flying now. Surprising how much of a difference a few tweaks to the controls make.

An interesting fact: the ship voices are different in each ship. The hornet is very direct and to the point with a harder tone whereas my 300i is more eloquent and friendly. Wording is also different (Hornet just beeps at me when locking missiles whereas my 300i says "locking missiles" in a very pleasant voice). Can't wait for more of the ships to come into AC - avenger is next which as an old ship I expect to communicate by telegram with me.

Most surreal event so far - suddenly losing a lot of speed and wonder why, only to see my engine float past my cockpit. I thought so myself "ahh - that'll be why" then continue on as a missile launching platform until I have nothing left to fire.

**edit**

Have a video of my 3rd dogfight uploaded now - full graphics enabled. The video is here:

I also lost my engine in this video (happened a few times now) - look around 28:50 in the video.

The only Org that I will be a joint member of is Dez Nutz. Other than that its not worth it.

This post is full of win.
I still haven't had a chance to try AC (tonight, hopefully?) but I do have access to all three ships, so it's going to be interesting to see how each handles and compares to the others.

Since CryEngine 3.5 it supports MSAA. They do plan on adding it to the game.

Cryengine has always supported hardware MSAA its just that hardware MSAA doesn't work right with the rendering engine and will get you sub 15 fps on crossfire 290x
Technically its supported but it basically breaks the game which is why it's disabled in all cryengine titles, I've used it in the SDK for screenshots but thats pretty much the limit of its functionality.

I think you are confusing hardware MSAA with deferred MSAA which is post processing like FXAA.

here's a vid of me trying the voice controls.
It worked well except my targeting commands aren't working?
Tried on the keyboard too and nada.

you can fast forward a bit to when i get into the sim.

This is neat, also get to wave 12 and you will have 6 hunters targeting you with missiles

Ah, yes that's it.

I still can't get past level 13. Maybe when they get the Hornet fixed I'll be able to.

You just hired... The D Team.

 

[Ahhzz]

So many 'splosions... so few dead.... loved that show

Thank you so much, I can finally decouple without taking my hands off the stick.

.......

so many things to say here.... so little space... "uncouple"... "hands off the stick"....

One 7mb patch and then another 2gb patch! Get the 7mb patch then restart AC to get the 2gb.

Oh my. Freelancer variants are out, plus we all get the two TNGS finalist ships to check out in our hangars which have all be upgraded to the Deluxe version for the time being...


.. I'm trying to decide with variant I want..

wait what?

 

[ne6togadno]

i have just upgraded to freelancer dur.
waiting for download

 

[Scrizz]

I noticed the fixed a good amount of issues in this latest patch.

The freelancer MIS looks tasty. mmmm missile boat
also can't wait to see the Boomslang and 4horeseman interior. lol

 

[erocker]

I got the MIS version. I figure either my Constellation or Starfarer will be my explorer ship. A badass military variant of the Freelancer is just what the doctor ordered.

BTW, you need to go to My RSI-->Hangar and apply your upgrade so it will be in the hangar.

wish I could get that, haha
sux being a broke college student?

 

[ne6togadno]

download speed 3-4mb/s 1h to wait zzzZZZZ...
not sure if i am going to wait it now :/
most likely will take the road to the bed and check it tomorrow.

I just melted my 300i to upgrade the Freelancer. I still have a 325a sitting in there to melt if something else comes up. No more giving them any money for me.

 

[Scrizz]

I'm not melting my gladiator.
hopefully that comes in missile boat flavors too.

 

[human_error]

Hnggggg not an easy decision between the DUR and MIS. I think I'll go MIS as it's only losing 16 cargo units vs the DUR and jumpdrives can always be upgraded. I bet I can also add in my own long range sensors if needed. This gives me a nice missile boat if I can't find crew for my constellation or retaliator...

**edit**

screw it went for the MIS. Also went and bought the Freelancer "coat" which has been described as "in no way related to any other sci-fi universe ;-) " while in a thread about Serenity. It is an actual coat for your character, not a ship skin.

 

[Scrizz]

can any of you guys get into any of the TNGS ships?

 

[Wastedslayer]

Is the coat a subscribers only item?
