XT, despite the "meh" performance, I've been having fun. Just don't wear armour you don't want to lose.

Hated it. Totally useless as a solo player. Couldn't even do the whole event solo in my aurora

Really great guide thank you and can’t wait for more 😃

I don't have confidence in CIG being able to get cargo and persistent hangers into live before IAE. It's is their consistent history of not meeting community expectations on additions in performance or introduced mechanics. Tried Xeno, no value in time spent on it. To many issues to list here.

Hackers gotta hack

What people forget is the fact that the bigger a ship gets, the more useless it becomes once it crashed. Have fun looking at the terminal waiting for 30 minutes until it spawns. What a great game! Much fun

My org managed to capture 2 idris over the course of an evening and used our new fleet to lock down the area.

XT has been a bit pants so far. As far as I can tell I've finished it twice but no armour. Cant say it was fun, the UI is a hopeless mess and its close on impossible to tell freind from fow. Plus there was no freight fleet in the specified locale one time. It all feels a bit 3.18 at the moment.

biggest game company but after 12 years its still 💩

my org had a lot of fun with XT we were capturing idris and holding on to them for long periods of time, i think we held one for around 7 hours before it got impounded accidentally at a landing zone we were also looting all the XT fps armors. the main boarding path we used was the side airlocks on the mid deck as the hangar entrances had that gravity issue so those could only be entered with a ship. on the cargo duping thing i was one of the ones who accidentally did it but did not get suspended i definitely agree the ones who did get suspended were people blatantly doing it repeatedly.

Well, there was _some_ performance improvement with xenothreat in Live: Even though server tick rate was down to 5 or 6, transacting in stations was generally OK (I hear that miners were affected badly, though). Glad some ppl had fun with XT, but I keep hearing of delays in getting 3.23.2 with the Cargo stuff into EVO and that's no good at all. I'll actually have a skerrick of confidence we'll get Persistent Hangars when I hear it is in EVO. Alien Week: Like you Mike, some nice paint jobs, but otherwise, "Meh". For CCU game folks, XT brought in a couple of useful CCU chits, but that's nothing to do with Alien Week

Another great week in Review

How is the cargo on the Liberator "relatively exposed"🤔What do they mean by this?

Slowly going from SC fan to CIG can GF'd. More ship sales yet bugs are never looked at. In particular, large aspect ratios are UNPLAYABLE due to inventory being borked and items are huge. Nav markers are huge and overlap. Add in all the extra crap labels that don't need to be there and oh yeah, they are huge... This has been an issue for literal years! Devs just close posts about it and ignore the issue council. Loosing faith real fast.

The argument that it's an alpha and therefore it's ok to exploit is dumb. Obviously there's nothing wrong with finding (and reporting) an exploit. And sure, maybe you even need to do it two or three times in order to understand how to reproduce it and then document it. But when you're doing it repeatedly (for benefit) and that exploit is impacting the server and the experience of other players, that's crossing a line, IMO. I'm glad they suspended the biggest offenders for doing it. As a live service PC game, hacking/exploits will *always* be a problem. That's just the nature of the platform. Better to set the precedent now that there will be repercussions for abusing those types of things than to let it go unchecked.

XT has been fun, performance has been variable. Sometimes it’s been fine, but more often than not, not. However, it has been good enough to complete it several times.

I wouldn't ban players for exploiting once or twice with something like that duping exploit, but someone that's doing it over and over, knows exactly what they're doing, and supporting such behaviour, also supports credit farmers, and I see that as the biggest problem.

Imagine spending more than 40$ on this. Jesus.

Would love to catch you live on Twitch but 0330 is a bit early for me out on the west coast. Absolutely love your UA-cam content though, keep it up!!

This game is hilariously dead

This patch has already led me to encountering 30k’s again, gotta love it!

had zero issues with XT (except one) and have successfully done it 4 times, helping friends get their armor. the only issue I have experienced is asshat players who shoot at anything red and those that are truly griefers and are out there to ruin others' experience. on the performance and mission side no issues whatsoever

I love how sc markets their adds,, all these videos of cool flight combat.fps and stuff. then you get in the game and its , NPC's and players running in place, desync central, crap performace, looks like a disaster in the making... Dont get me wrong I got nice screenshots, but stillframe is all that its good for atm. Lets not talk about the boring missions... lack of substance in their gameloops and all there is to do is make money.. then what? they have all this lore and use 0% of it for in game. Nice one.

I had my first experience in Xenothreat the other day. Killed the Idris. Had great performance overall. Seeing that quantum drive explode was worth it all to me.

"Gold Farmers" should be perma banned if they are 'selling' the aUEC they farm.

You missed the Ursa plushie, which is also new with the Corsair. 🙂

I want a real cutty plushy

And now we have a HOTFIX channel tied to Live PU, because 3.23.1a STILL has some issues.

That editor reveal at the end :o He looks like a good chap

Exploiting in such a way, is never the right thing to do even if it’s an alpha. Our job as the alpha players is to find such issues and report it. Not exploiting it for beyond personal gain at the expense of everyone else.

Is Cargo Next? No. I called it months ago and I'm going to call it again. They will delay, delay, delay until they finally scrap the personal hangars from the game

Yes the performance is still bad but I still tried to do the Xenothreat mission. My biggest problem with it is getting back into the fight after dying. I kept getting sent into long queues because the medbeds were all full, getting forced to respawn at my home location. My ship kept getting lost as soon as I would call it up at the ASOP terminal so I had to claim it again after waiting 17 minutes. That is my biggest gripe with the game. I waste so much fucking time dicking around just to get to where I need to be and I am sick of it.

I am so bemused by someone would sit there and play something that clearly doesn't have much to offer other than bugs and performance issues galore after 10 years of development. I really cannot wait for something that is released that is not hampered majorly with performance issues and glitches. even on my 4090

For me Xenothreat works great during the day. But the evenings when everyone's on, it tanks the experience.

lag so bad during Zenothreat events I cant even mine. Mining laser control just lost!

They should not ban players but put them in a High security prison (no escape route) for 2+ months. If they want they can work the time off. So play the game to get out early.

We use the side airlocks to enter via EVA and shoot the doors open with ballistics or use bikes to enter the hangar. We stole 4 of them over the course of the day Sunday and had 3 at once between a party of 10-12 by the time we called it a night. Noiceguy streamed it on Twitch.

Hoping for stability in SC is like watching the Biden team stabilize the border, it’s coming it’s coming, no really, Ha.

fps and the event generally we're disappointing..literally had 5 fps and besides issues like UI, desync, bad npc's, bugs the event itself was meh except the boarding stuff..so tired of the no progress on key things they advertise as if they've progressed..

The exploiters that got banned would have been the worse offenders.. one that do it for a job to sell the in game money for real money.. Sadly an account ban wont stop them as they will just buy another account.

Hmmmm. . . wake me up next year when we get hangers and cargo.

Always appreciate the summary! Thanks Mike

It all ship sales and nothing about game content. It is annoying. Ironclad is also too expensive for a concept ship and its loaner does not even meet the value. There is one thing i agree though, the suspensions. It was not just exploiting in an alpha, it was hindering other players by breaking servers with their dozens of abandoned ships and filling the stocks to the brim and preventing people from salvage game loop and insulting others while doing so. Other than that, i couldnt care less about how much auec someone has or how many ships they have and i am sure that most of the people who is happy with the suspensions think that way. Any way, the exploiters are now spamming the general chat with malicious websites that sell auec for real money. 😅

Bla bla bla as always

Tried Xenothreat 3 times, 1st time performed great but on the last stage people hijacked the idris before the mission started and bugged it, 2nd try performance was rough, 3rd time was great, smooth experience start to finish AI wer responsive and fun to play against and missions all completed fine. All in all, really enjoyed it.

I'm waiting to trade my C1 for the Zeus Mk CL

Exploiters in alpha should absolutely be suspended. They were destroying servers leaving dead ships all over the place.

I melted my med pisces and used the funds to upgrade my carrack to a banu merchantman.

The exploiter stuff its real simple. Yeah its an alpha, but there is a difference between testing and trying things out.. identifying exploits and reporting them... and the people who were literally doing NOTHING but the exploit... gaining hundreds of millions of credits and clogging the system up so much the people doing things legit couldn't sell things. That is the line.. yeah find the stuff... yeah show them how its done... but then fucking stop. Don't sit there and drive it into the pavement over and over again to the point where its just fucking things up for everyone. That is abuse.. just identifying it and reporting it is not and I think CIG made it clear. Find the stuff.. but leave it at that. If you sit there and abuse it they are going to come down on you. One is helpful, the other is malicious.. stop being malicious. Yeah CIG was slow about it but the go to reasoning shouldnt be to abuse it until they stop you. It should be to find the issue, report it and then don't do that thing. That is fair play and if you did more than that you deserve your temp ban. Stop being a fuckwit.. its all going to get wiped anyways, there is absolutely no reason at all to exploit it that hard.. it takes even more time away from then fixing things if they have to stop to panic address an exploit. Don't be a dick, find it. report it. leave it alone.

At this point I’m just anxiously awaiting the Road to 1.0 Progress Tracker. Jared has always said to refer to that for questions about what is & is not in active development, and we’ve been in the dark about all that for some time now. Hopefully soon, we’ll know exactly where everything stands after the reshuffle of teams and exactly which features Chris deems necessary to get at least some semblance of his dream space MMO across the line - and which stuff we’ll just have to accept is not coming for several more years if ever.
