The Upgrade Game in Star Citizen

Scopique October 23, 2019

I know I’ve said it before, but I am not a “details guy” when it comes to gaming. I contrast this to the Wooly Belghast who seems to be a Destiny savant when it comes to all of the gear which that…

No Man Left Behind; We’re All Wizards Now

Scopique October 17, 2019

No Man Left Behind Star Citizen continues to make headway, although not as quickly as many people would like. The recent 3.7 patch introduced several new features like caves, ship rentals, and other quality of life improvements. On its face, there’s really…

Weekend Update – 10/5/19

Scopique October 7, 2019

Destiny 2 I have been spending an OK amount of time in Destiny 2, moreso than I had previous to this weekend, and moreso than any other game this weekend. Nothing has really changed in the game for me except that I…

Space Cadet for the Weekend of 9/14/19

Scopique September 16, 2019

I have decided that I am a “space-themed game” gamer. I prefer sci-fi over fantasy in general, so it makes sense that I gravitate more towards sci-fi games than I do high-fantasy games. Generally, I believe the market backs me up in…

Scopique July 26, 2019

Yesterday I was reading updates in the Nova Intergalactic Discord for Star Citizen and I saw that there’s an upcoming organized operation during which where several members would be manning the new Ballista mobile missile platforms while a single Hammerhead would try…

A Weekend with Star Citizen 3.6

Scopique July 23, 2019

This past weekend, CIG released alpha patch 3.6 to the PU (public universe) which brought with it some significant, yet not all welcome, changes to Star Citizen. Crime and Punishment One of the biggies is that being a dick now has consequences-with-an-asterisk.…

Time for an Upgrade

Scopique July 12, 2019

I have done something that I have (almost) never done before in my history of MMO playing: I have looked up stats and configurations for build options. Last night around 9 PM EDT I fired up Star Citizen because it’s the one…

Star Citizen 3.6

Scopique June 28, 2019

I just watched this week’s Inside Star Citizen, which is the last episode of the series for this quarter as the team goes to ground to finish up on Alpha patch 3.6. This video has done more to get my psyched about…

A Fleet of my Own

Scopique November 29, 2018

By the time this post sees the light of day, the Intergalactic Aerospace Expo will be winding down, and it’ll be back to business as usual in the Star Citizen universe. Seeing as how this was the first “usable” expo that I…

Size and Effectiveness in Space Combat

Scopique October 18, 2018

Seeing as how we have yet to actually experience combat in space, the best analog that humanity has come up with for how spaceships would duke it out is naval combat. Like sailing the seas, flying around in space doesn’t give us…
