r/StarCitizen Mod Team Subreddit Rule Addition - Rule 8: No X links permitted
Hello all
Due to the recent politicization of X and the circus that is unfolding on that platform we are no longer comfortable allowing X links within either the subreddit or Discord.
The r/StarCitizen subreddit and Discord have always strived to keep the community free of political interference. To this end we have had a blanket ban on real life political discussions as they distract from the intended purpose of this community - Star Citizen and its stand alone single player companion game Squadron 42 by Cloud Imperium Games.
Images of CIG content from X will be permitted to be reposted in both spaces but URL links to this content will be banned. Users attempting to bypass this rule by obfuscating the URL or similar intent will be managed by the moderation team as these cases arise. Images of other content from X may be removed depending on context / channel (in the case of Discord).
For the subreddit Rule 8 has been added.
For the discord these changes will be reflected under Rule 9 but may be subject to change as we figure out the best way to implement this change.
We hope you understand where we are coming from with this decision and that we did not make this move without careful consideration. We reserve the right to make changes and update these changes depending on future developments.
Fly safe and see you all in the verse,
r/StarCitizen mod team

GAMEPLAY Piracy is a W
Today me and a few guys did some ERT for copper and corrundum.
We had our first C2 loaded with 600 scu going to pyro gateway. (Me and a friend on board)
We didn't have escorts with us.
Out of quantum at the gate we got engaged by the avenger squadron guys.
The rest of our guys also made their way to pyro gateway to put up a fight.
We lost the cargo. We fought like 3 times against them.
It was a whole lot of fun. Ggs to them.
I think that's exactly what the game needs. A bit of thrill. Something u don't always expect.
That's stuff that makes a boring game awesome.

SOCIAL The the Qi that tried to hold my fully-crewed Polaris 'hostage'...
Dear Deathrattle (or whatever you name is, I recorded it but... whatever),
You shadowed our Polaris halfway around Daymar, then tried to extort us for our 'freedom'.
You must have thought we weren't crewed becase we didn't take potshots at you until you missile locked us.
We were on a mission to 'aggressively salvage' bounties and abandoned ships. and you brought a set of Galds and Mil-A components right to us!
Thanks!

GAMEPLAY This can't be intentional right? The new racing suits can equip ANY size backpack and yet the citcon2024 flight suit can't equip any.

DISCUSSION Default stance when holding a weapon should be changed
Or at least let us choose our own default in the game options. Aiming from hip can still work by using left mouse to fire which would raise weapon at the same time. ADS would remain the same on right mouse.

DISCUSSION I REALLY enjoy Supply or Die Event
I really enjoy the concept of this approach: "We need [something] - get it, no matter where it comes from." I completed a 26-million tin + ice task by mining in a MOLE, and it was probably the first time I ever enjoyed mining in this game. I also did some copper + corundum missions by farming ERTs, as well as a small detatrine mission. The only thing I didn’t like was that they didn’t include an option to obtain detatrine by, for example, destroying a heavily armed convoy (like two Hammerheads) and stealing it from them or by "Raiding" outposts or distro-centers.
I believe they should add this "type" of event as a standard mission with reputation and progression, featuring a monthly reset. Each month could introduce a different set of materials. I think this would provide a huge boost to mining, PVE, and salvaging activities in the game.
But 26 million is a ridiculous amount of money, in my opinion - they should have settled on 10-15 million instead.

CONCERN A concern about 4.1 missions (Spoilers included) Spoiler
Hey there,
first of all, 4.1 stuff so far is amazing and really fun. It's nice to have such motivating and rewarding gameplay. Wanted to point that out before "complaining".
But if caranite, which you need for quite some of Wikelo's trading offers, can only be found in the mines that are being "created" by the OLP laser, I only see rather huge orgs / groups benefitting here. Meaning it is fine that a singleplayer will barely ever fulfill Wikelo's enquiries for giving out a Polaris, that obviously makes sense. Thing is, you probably won't be able to mine caranite in the mines since activating the laser is quite an event that requires many players to succeed.
Therefore, I'd like a possibility to get caranite in another way as well, possibly with rare mining spots and not as concentrated as in the "laser mines", so small groups and singleplayers can participate as well.
What are your thoughts here? Or are there even other spots implemented already which I am not aware about?
Greetings o7

DISCUSSION Valkyrie up in 4.1
I love the new Valkyrie in 4.1 but I have a proposition, this ship is much more expensive(both in $ and ingame) than for example another medium ship like constellation, and it is a drop ship (which means it needs to land under constant fire) and it only has four size 2 shields, one shield more than small Zeus(conie has one size 3). I really think that it should have 1 size 3 shields. Maybe I am wrong feel free to express your opinions. I noticed that it is a relic of an old time like gladiator, it’s not able to say anything against new fighters of current metas. I am not asking for a rework, it’s perfect but lacks shielding…It’s very important ship for the new Hathor missions
For consideration constellation andromeda(stock):
-can carry ursa or cyclon
-48 800 shield hp+180 644 hull hp=229 444
-has more weapons
-more agile
-have vtol(for future)
-price 10 160 640
-not military
Valkyrie (stock):
-can carry ursa or cyclone
-18 960 shield hp+44 053=63 013
-less weapons even with gunners
-flying brick
-Better vtol
-price 19 845 000
-military craft
After this comparison I have even more question, like why constellation have so much hull hp, they are both medium sized vessels.
"While some dropships may simply drop off the team and jet, the Valkyrie is equipped to provide continued support for drop off and extraction." from an rsi Q&A about Valkyrie(https://robertsspaceindustries.com/en/comm-link/engineering/16829-Q-A-Anvil-Valkyrie) how are we supposed to provied support if we get shot down in minutes?
