    Im mostly in delivery, trading and salvage game loops. Love the level of complexity and just relax somewhere out in the stars.

      One of the biggest things I’m looking forward to is just visiting all the solar systems. If we ever make it to 100 systems, it’s going to be amazing!

    I played Elite a while back, then kinda faded out. A close friend and my brother mentioned SC a few years ago, and we all downloaded it. We play SC when it works and we need a break from Rust. Overall, love it, I just wish it was more stable. It’s been cool to see features being built out, even if it breaks the game regularly.

      Luckily 3.19 has been pretty stable, but yeah it’s hard to know when to play and when to sit out a patch. It’s fun to watch things change over time.

        3.19 has been pretty good, at least after the first few days. 3.18 was a trainwreck at release though, I couldn’t log in for a few weeks

    Personally, I’ve been following this game since it was first announced. I’m not a golden ticket holder, but I was one of the first 100,000 to sign up and I still hold a Rear Admiral package in my hangar. I’ll get that signed collectors box some day 😆.

    I’m just a huge fan of everything related to space and space ships. The idea of flying out into the unknown on my own is my ultimate dream and this game comes closer than anything to replicating that idea.

    I’ve been through all the stages of grief with this game multiple times and now I’m just a jaded whale. Now I just watch development cycles go by and wait for a day when the game will be more playable. I’m super excited for SQ42 and I have high hopes for it.

    I don’t play as much as I used too, but I’m slowly adding to my setup as time goes on. I’ve got a set of Virpil sticks and pedals and I just really enjoy taking my ships out for a spin with them. I hope to see you all out in the 'verse in time!

      I’m a newer backer (2018) but I feel like I’m in the same boat. I just love space and I want to fly some spaceshits!

      I come and go, and play patches here and there. There’s plenty of games to play in the meantime, but this one is the big one!

      My status is similar to yours. Just kinda waiting for CIG to do something.

      Thanks for making this instance! I hope it picks up because we need a place that we can control outselves.

    I came over from E:D a couple years ago and haven’t looked back. Development can be rough from patch to patch, but SC has so much potential that I’m here for the long run!

    Man I don’t know why I’m still following SC. Maybe it’s sunk cost or stokholm syndrome 😂 I find myself caring less and less as development gets slower and slower, but I’ll always pay attention at least until SQ42 comes out. SQ42 will really make or break this community.

    Just joined here because I want to help add more content to the Lemmy verse. I play SC because I love flying my Constellation around. Can’t wait to take it across the galaxy!

    As funny as it may sound, I’m mostly interested in FPS. SC has all the aspects of the best shooter games out there… CIG just needs to make it work right. Loot like Tarkov, movement a lot like PUBG, the concept of PvP across an entire planet surface… what’s not to love? And I really like the direction towards more realistic movement and injuries. Games like COD just aren’t that fun anymore and I’m looking for something that you need to put a little more thought and effort into to be successful.

    Unfortunately FPS is in a really bad state, with all the bunny hopping in AC and server desync in PU. NPC bunker missions can be fun when the NPCs work, but it’s usually just like shooting mannequins.
