some ship wrecks we can explore

2.1.1a Published to PTU

Some important call-outs:
We are aware that ArcCorp is still suffering from some texture problems and level of detail popping.
VFG Industrial has a small spot of missing collision in the floor, in front of the hangar bay doors to the elevator. It can be avoided by sprinting over it or using the Main Menu → Universe interface.
The Vanguard Warden can sometimes spawn in with one or more of its lasers floating inside of the ship.
Similarly, the Vanguard Warden lasers will rarely fire off-center.
Arena Commander Module:
Balance/Tweaks:
Ships
The Vanguard Warden has received a number of maneuverability tweaks, based on feedback and our own observations.
Simple movements should result in much less oversteer and sliding when doing simple movements.
Changes of direction when pitching and yawing should now come with improved acceleration.
It should no longer be able to get into unrecoverable spins unless severely damaged.
Fixes:
Ships
Fixed an issue where Vanguard Pilots would find their character eyes visible in the middle of their screen, after respawning in Arena Commander games.
Persistent Universe:
Additions:
Gameplay
The max player count for Crusader has been returned to 16.
We gathered a ton of great data during the time it was increased, thanks to everyone who jumped into for testing!
Fixes:
Environment
Removed an errant Devastator-12 Energy Shotgun that would spawn inside of one of rare wrecks in the Yela Asteroid Field.
This was removed because it would cause a client crash. If any player finds this still in-game on this new build, please report it to Issue Council ASAP. Thank you!

Technical
Made several FPS performance improvements to the Constellation Andromeda while in Crusader.

I just bought an Aurora LN pack. Still coming to grasp with the game (I use a 360 controller, it works quite well surprisingly!).

Game is a beauty but a pity the flight tutorials suffer from bad stuttering.

welcome to the game! oh since you're interested to join the org, please help us by registering. @ http://goo.gl/yyd18 thanks.

Remember @dirtysock and @Snail2Home this game is still in development and it is advised to be as patient as possible. avoid upgrading your PC if you can avoid it, and that while in alpha/beta things can change or break alot, that is part and parcel of game / software development.

meanwhile, more CIG / SC news!

Sneak peek at the Xi'An Scout's development!

And for the rest if you are interested in the game, feel free to ask more questions and if you want to test out the game - it is free fly for this week only! And those who want to create new accounts with our codes will get free 5K UEC - feel free to PM and ask for the codes!

Thanks Pyre, I brought Hornet Ghost, it's a beauty, too bad I can't buy the Super Hornet. But playing AC and using REC can let us rent it for 7 days.

It's still in alpha, having tried the gameplay, it's totally worth waiting for.

hmm... If you want a SH, it can be arranged. there are several options but won't discuss here. PM me if interested.

hi and welcome aboard to the game. in order to help you better - which option did you try out or test? if you mentioned walking about there are a few game modes that offer that at the moment.

also do remember that this game is still in Alpha stage. not a beta, not a demo. at Alpha stage.

I tried the Universe and the hangar, the Universe I launch one of the area , that's where I walk about, try a lot of keys but like nothing happen, so jus walk around exploring but nothing much to do. Really need a guide to know what I need to do. I think there's a tutorial at the start but i guess i did not pay much attention to it, anyway to reactivate the tutorial again?

In the hangar I only manage to board the ship in the hangar into the cockpit and that's it, press all the keys while in cockpit but nothing happen.

Universe (Port Olisar) - once out of your bunk area, go down to the Hub area. it should look something like this below and look at those screens - an icon to USE the screen should appear.

then select the ship you want to fly - take note of the landing pad it will spawn at and then go there via the airlocks. You will need to engage the airlocks as well - USE twice.

Landing pad should look something like this.

will share more about the Hangar later.

These keys should work:
F9 - AR APPs (Journal & Scheduler)
F10 - Player Names & Item Info
F11 - Friends List
F12 - Chat Window

Left Alt + Space - Interact with HUD
Ctrl + C - Relative / Interactive Mode Toggle
Right Alt + M - Toggle Look Ahead
V - Change Flight Mode
B - Select POI / Quantum Travel (Middle Mouse to Confirm)
Ctrl + F - Exit Ship or Station

While in First Person
1 - Pistol
2 - SMG
H - Heal
Z - Prone
Ctrl - Crouch
o - Turn on Flashlight

We are past mid-way into free-flight week. If you are still interested register an account then download the Alpha! Do note it is still very Alpha and buggy. And if you want free 5K UEC, register your new account with our code. PM for details.

My semi-guide for those new to the alpha.

--------------
Choose Universe

Universe (or Port Olisar) - once out of your bunk area, go down to the Hub area. it should look something like this below and look at those screens - an icon to USE the screen should appear.

then select the ship you want to fly - take note of the landing pad it will spawn at and then go there via the airlocks. You will need to engage the airlocks as well - USE twice.

Landing pad should look something like this.

Board your ship or nicely request to join someone else's larger ship like a Freelancer, Cutlass, Retaliator or Constellation. Might be even able to squeeze into a Sabre. Plenty of emotes like Salute help too Then go explore the mini-universe together.
