I'll be giving that other place a more serious try for a while, being the change I want to see and all that. I'll probably still come by here occasionally, but if you wanna find me there I'm @norgeek.bsky.social

After 11 amazing years at CIG it’s time for me to step aside and watch from the sidelines. From starting a new studio in Frankfurt to helping run a Dev team of 800+ across 5 separate time zones, it’s been both challenging and incredibly rewarding. Time for an overdue break then I’ll determine what’s next. Let me know if anyone has any cool projects they want help with, a new studio they want to start, or… #StarCitizen

@ChambersArt It's been good having you at the helm in Frankfurt. Wishing you a good break and a great next adventure when that time comes!

@discolando Those endless nights with the band playing in the cantinas for the randoms passing through 🥺

Parenting is trying to explain to my daughter why the Mos Eisley Cantina music in her LEGO Star Wars isn’t making me sad, I’m just experiencing SWG entertainer-class melancholy from 22 years ago and I’ll be okay in a minute.

@Morphologis For me it's rather a matter of interest. Rock Breaker is just another FPS dungeon, I don't really do FPS/dungeons. I'm suuuuuuper excited for anything crafting though! Feels like a lot of people are feeling the same sort of way, but that could just be my sphere too.

Youtube has me feeling frustrated and conflicted. I spent about a week of recording, editing, and researching my video on rock breaker to assemble the highest quality, most cinematic guide I could, but it significantly underperformed like more and more recent videos I made. My crafting video took just a day, with some off camera testing that I related over b-roll I had saved in my drive from other filming experiences. It significantly outperformed all my other recent videos. The lesson I'm learning is that timing is way more important that quality and thoroughness. My channel won't survive anymore unless I change, and that hurts.

SCL of FPS bits, please add questions to the thread! (not here!)

@zac2806 When "when" though? 😄

@TheRubenSaurus @NathanForrester It's possible to earn a lot of credits without getting money from other players, but I suspect most of us with 9+ digit account balances have at least some amount of duped credits in the mix even if we or the people we got it from didn't do the duping ourselves

@NathanForrester Having a lot of money doesn't mean we earned it 'the wrong way' Apparently if you have a lot of money you're a cheater now?

Why? Everyone has millions/billions in this overinflated economy at the moment... Make it make sense. #StarCitizen

@AnthropicDualiT @Canuck_2099 I mean at a certain distance they appear quite similar I guess? 🫣

@norgeeek @Canuck_2099 Well... It told me Singular cellular organisim was a comet.... So there's that 😭

The massive amount of "Grok is this true" I keep seeing.... Humanity is fucked. Ai, specifically grok is wrong alot... If people actually spent the time to research and learn and absorbed the knowledge instead of looking at the information and the forgetting about it, we might be going down a better path. Ai should be used as an additional tool not the only one.

@Canuck_2099 @AnthropicDualiT The problem is that Grok isn't "right" or "wrong", that's not what it does - it's a sentence creation machine that creates informationless sentences that fit the conversation. It's a modern horoscope that appears to be telling you something real and often appears to be right.

@AnthropicDualiT Grok is wrong less often than people fabricate stuff on X. 🤷‍♂️

@GavRov Could you shed some light on the timeline on the F8 development vs the Murray Cup logo ship from ~2014 (also yours?). It feels F8'y in some ways but like an early concept or a racing variant.. was in a recent Reddit discussion wondering which ship it actually was, if any ^^

I designed the F8 and I haven't seen this before - cool ship though

@HowlingF14533 @Out5p0ken Typically journalists while attempting to frame something in a particular way. Copy it into google and you'll see several examples. Luckily it's getting a lot of pushback.

Stop saying underage women. They are children.

@RobertsSpaceInd I only have a green MaxLift reward, how do I unlock the red one? 🥺

New clothing, armor, vehicle tints, and credits await the altruistic souls willing to devote their time to ending the suffering of Levski’s people. Whether you deploy solo or alongside others, every run brings aid to Levski and rewards for those who answer the call! Alpha 4.6 Lifeline for Levski: play.sc/lifelineforlev…

@Morphologis The event was really fun on day 1 when it just worked great. A couple of days later it was frustrating but manageable. Today I got a grand total of 0/0 missions completed all day. If it wasn't for being in a megagroup getting at least some progress I'd be far more frustrated rn..

Event has been extremely difficult to complete. Numerous issues with the game. New external cargo lifts deleting mission cargo, our ship getting stored multiple times trying to leave, cargo needing to be put down the lift 1 by 1 or it wouldn't work... it's just so frustrating. I hope that we can get a lot more focus on fixing game breaking issues like these in 2026 @RobertsSpaceInd

I’m looking to start streaming #StarCitizen content on TikTok, but I need 50 followers to unlock it. If you’re on TikTok, a follow would mean a lot: @glitchedinorbit" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">tiktok.com/@glitchedinorb… Thanks so much! 💜

@_johncrewe Semipermanent temporary fixes ftw!

He infact did not repair it properly later and he finds himself in the same situation a year later.

#StarCitizen is pure therapy

@glitchedinorbit HNY!! 🎆🎇

Happy New Year! 🎉🚀 Thanks for being such an awesome #StarCitizen crew—whether you’ve been flying with me for years or just docked recently. Here’s to more adventures in the year ahead.

@BeardedCIG Amusingly I dated a contract December 31st 2026 today so I'm not sure exactly where this is going..

Is everyone ready to start writing the wrong year on everything?

@chonkrider @RobertsSpaceInd @squadron_42 @CloudImperium 27 seems... optimistic. 2 years after Squadron already felt a little 'too soon' when Bault said so to that Canadian magazie a while ago. That's still 2.5 star systems missing, a LOT of narrative content, crafting, base building, Genesis, social stuff... and then balancing it all?

Well then, if #Squadron42 is set to release in 2026, #StarCitizen 1.0 could land in 2027. My gosh, 15 years of development for two huge games is absolutely brutal, and it’s pushing industry standards upward. Chris is seriously making gaming history. 🤞😆🤏
