For anybody who uses Linux by preference, don't bother with the Tobii. They make far too much money selling the exact same hardware platform for accessibility or research to ever consider releasing the drivers or the protocol spec.
That is something that has been said since 2.0 came out. This time however, it does feel different knowing that server meshing is in place, and having experienced 4.0 PTU and how smooth that was.
@@chupica100Now that server meshing is here and we can see how good it is, we know these issues are so much deeper than server performance. The fact that everyone isn't running to the bank is genuinely scary.
@@chupica100You forget this is just the most basic form of server meshing, nowhere near dynamic server meshing which is probably going to be 5.0 or even 6.0
actually if you go behind the wormhole while it's open and people are flying through it you can actually go inside and look around without being pulled through. it's all there and you can see inside, you're just not classed as jumping and it's visual only. you can see invisible ships (their nametags) fly through your position as you occupy the same space but aren't affected by the tunnel, it's quite strange
I know it's been unplayable for a lot of people but I've been playing it a massive amount and it's genuinely been a better experience than any other patch I've played. Definitely still a lot to go, but I've been enjoying a ton
Yea I think I'm about to finally buy it... I've never known so much about a game I've still yet to play lol. Been following on and off for like 8 years and still have managed to refrain from buying it cus I don't wanna be that guy who acts surprised or feels burnt jumping in too early when I can't always afford to just disappear 50-100 bucks for something that doesn't work right.
-Elevators dont work (To hangar) -Hospitals screens dont work (Can't get a medbed room) -Cargo not able to be transferred to hangar (occupied by invisible cargo) -Unable to log in (Timed out + x5) -Contested zones enimies shots through walls -Server puked it self (able to be in, but all things dont work) -Unable to buy anything (Food, water, weapons, armor etc) -Bought Cargo dont show up in cargo elevator -Ships spawns in floor of hangar -Server locks you (Tried all method known to avoid this -Player get stuck in dashboard of ship when enter seat - Quantum drive stops halfway to destinations - Quantum jumps stops 1000 km from space stations - Players get stuck in main cities But hey.. Happy to hear you didn't have any trouble...
Don't forget the bug with prison.. not run into it myself (as I'm a law abiding citizen) but chat was full of people complaining about being stuck in Kleisher.
@@nierdrifter3276 This does not fix the issue. Nor do character resets, having a friend track down your ship and destroy it, setting network IP, completely fresh installing windows, changing computers, sacrificing your favorite cat, being patient, going to arena and playing in the ship you log off in, spending more money, making a customer ticket, and on and on. Account is in purgatory. Gone.
Im mentally dying because of the 60030 error. I upgraded my starter ship the day i got the error. I dont think people realize that we literally cant play the game a t a l l
I think the main reason you're having fun is because you're just wandering around looking at stuff and trying things out. If you have a specific game loop or goal in mind, you'll probably hit a snag that will make it unplayable. It's much better if you just go and have fun without trying to focus too hard on a specific goal.
It's really only fun when its "new" to you. Once you get to do the same mission over and over whether it's delivering packages (noobs) or ERT's (extreme risk target pve) or even cargo. It takes so long to do all since you have to load, train, fly, etc. After the first few times you do something it just gets old and you really find out there's nothing fun about star citizen and you eventually have to "create" your own adventures using your own imagination of what this game could be, but it's not. This is why you see SC creators succeed in creating videos based on their own little adventure they had.
@@ScreamingAtSink ?? everyone gets bored of doing the same contracts over and over and over again, with a very high chance of it being bugged or the game is slow or just random glitches, which all will ruin the entire experience and in most cases will have you respawn or reload, and poof lost your ship, your gear and whatever cargo you had. There is no need to defend the crap of the current state of gameplay loops, it's obvious to everyone what the crappy state it is in. But hey, lets get excited for more ship releases instead of CIG actually fixing gameplay
@@Zaicyn 1st of all I was being sarcastic and 2nd of all, what I meant was, if the creator is always smiling and happy, that would imply the game is good and not a buggy mess the game currently is. And all this while he clearly shows that he encountered a game breaking bug. Also, if you pick on these creators for being misleading, people will shit on you cause how dare you.
It's been very difficult to play. Every time I hop in and try to do something I hit a roadblock: missions don't work, markers disappear, hangar issues, quantum travel issues, desync, falling through planets, not being able to loot... and the list goes on, specially now that servers seem to be degrading. I wouldn't recommend jumping in to play, wait at least a month or two and see if they manage to stabilize it.
Constant black screens followed by 60k errors, mission markers not appearing, bounties not registering kills, cargo giving too much or too little cargo, New Babbage (Extreme), it's been an absolute nightmare on AUS servers.
Aua server has been running OK for me but then I don't do bounties, and yes hauling missions give too much cargo sometimes. But that was 4 days ago , I can't even make the elevators work on my station today.
Accurate. Its a bare Minimum Viable Product. Funding is cresting now (peaked). So they’ve pushed this development model as far as the gaming community would bare MVPs. Its time for solidifying the fundamentals and move forward with minimal regression
We were warned that If we don't want a hard time, to prudently and patiently WAIT for a while because 4.0, unlike most other updates, comes with out-of-the-ordinary changes that will have bugs and technical issues. We're conformed with Arena Commander for the time being, and something quick and basic (like box delivery, a little cargo hauling and trade) in Stanton (NOT in Pyro yet). So far, as reports out there are going out, such warnings became true and thus are followed through. 5:50 6:40
I hate it that we all paid for some ships that they haven't developed yet , but they still have time to make new ships with that funding. Give me my damn Apollo Medivac already, CIG!
Been bricked from 4.0 since Xmas day... 60030 Error. Tried everything under the sun and no go. Have enjoyed playing in 4.0 before that... So much I don't want to play 3.24 now.
It's not been great. Half of the hauling missions don't register as completed, the bounty missions don't register as completed. QT UI phases in an out so I have no idea how long I'm traveling. I generally have to claim my ship twice before it will show up
The experience is so bad. If i only wanted to fly around and look around it would be better but if you want to do ANY of the gameplay loops its always bugs ruining everything all the time.
@@realdeal485It doesn't need to change. The point of the update wasn't to make the game better, it was to sell the Guardian QI. Not the Guardian. No one bought that thing.
insane amount of system crashes, lost money on missions or gear, ALL food and drink incap me and I can't recover without alt+f4, (berry smoothies turns out is a work around) and now, for the past few days my character is stuck in a long dead shard and I've been unable to play.... 4.0 has a lot of potential, and when its working its so good.. but I've had such a bad time since it went live. and its frustrating, cause I want so bad to talk about how cool it is...
@@mr.sophistication3232 I've been stuck in shards and klescher, both times didn't take too long to resolve... you guys are either very unlucky or overreacting.
@@Falenir there are hundreds of reports like mine on spectrum and about 15% of my org has been unable to play for over 3 days. You were one of the lucky ones.
I was doing ok (all things considered) yesterday, but today, 4.0 is a dumpster fire. Keybinds jacked up all of a sudden, cargo missions no longer working, etc. SaltEMike confirmed this as well. 4.0 as of 12/30 is DEGRADING into an even worse experience. Just waiting on the entirety of CIG to get out of their jammies and get back to work. I did.
when 4.0 works, it is beautiful! unfortunately, half the time I've been playing, so many bugs... hauling missions stop paying after doing a couple... losing ped trying to do manual cargo hauling (cargo disappearing after loading on elevator)... big bag of mixed feelings...
It will be awesome once CIG gets back from holidays...for now it is a nightmare...comparing this to 3.18...everything I touch have so many bugs that I am not sure that they will be able to fix all this. Second problem is that servers are degrading and performance will be close to 3.24.3 in a few days. I am wondering is it even possible to have constant and reliable performance for more then a few weeks even with server meshing! Whole 2025 should be about 4.0 and making this patch flawless before they add anything new to Star Citizen. We don't need new mechanics in this game for next year or two...they need to polish all the mechanics that we already have.
Played about 50 hours, died to many times to bugs(atls), can’t get out of my medium hanger at New Babbage. Missions not showing, hauling missions being hit or miss. I think I’ll give it a break till mid jan.
I've had a couple decent-ish sessions but it's been mostly unplayable for me. Missions bugging out, ships disappearing, mobiglass/QT not working properly, global chat has been down for several days amongst a half a dozen other bugs I've run into. I think once these things get ironed out for most players, it will be one step closer to becoming an actual game. Outside of that, been hitting 100+ FPS and the visuals are great. Music is absolutely fantastic. Server meshing seems to be a success. These things make me hopeful for the future, but like with every other major patch the game has had, we'll see.
It's running with more FPS for me (AMD+Vulkan) but I have just a different set of Bugs than in 3.24. I think most of it has to do with server Mashing. Mainly the elevators and movable objects are buggy. Here and there I have a crash to the Desktop but that's most likely due to Vulkan being in Beta. I don't have strange/leggy character behavior and broken/leggy doors as in 3.24. Also, do not get into jail. It's broken and you can't get contracts anymore unless you do another crime...
Going on 10 days 60030 code as well as 100s of others dealing with the same issue. As of right now there is no fix for the 30018-60030 just have to wait for a patch. You have a lot of workarounds that don't work.
tobi eye tracker sounds cool but man what a strain on the eyes since your focusing on a screen and just twisting your head. to act like you looking around but your still looking in front of you at the screen. needs multiple screens to feel natural
I played the eptu release and it was INCREDIBLE everything works really well with no issues. Then it went to live. Absolutely awful. The first week of trying to play i was stuck in babbage, not able to leave tje hangar or even spawn my ship. Finally i got out but thr server was pretty awful. I quit at a station and cant even load into the game anymore from a 60k error. Haven't been able to enjoy or see anything
It feel nice to play, besides the bugs with hangers and missions…. Worst is tho, you cant get in anymore couse of the Hanger logging. That is just the sadest…. Its fine if the product has issues, but not beeing able to use it at all is in my opinion a very big problem that atleast deserves some feedback from CIG
95% perfect sounds like the exception. every time ive been on the 4.0 preview at least its been absolute chaos for players. Had to rescue people from New Babbage because the doors to ship hangars didnt work. 10 people at Tressler couldnt summon ships and when I did finally server hop it brough up 2 of the SAME ship dancing with each other. Maybe this is because its preview and Ive not been playing proper 4.0 yet? but man its the same as it ever was. endless QT/Nav troubles as well. I'd describe SC as a game, in general, to sum up its whole existance thus far as 'Occasionally functional'
Bought a starter package on Christmas eve... had fun for about 1 hour 30 mins while getting used to the control. Started to glitch in Port Tressler. Logged out, and been locked out for about 6 days now. 30018 errors mostly, sometimes 60030. Tried all troubleshooting, dns flushing, character resets, entering adena commander, etc. But nothing works. Really frustrating. They need to focus on stability
I got those errors at one point. I managed to get rid of them by resetting the launcher (press ctrl+alt+shift+r) logging back in and 'installing' the preview again
I haven't been able to play because I can't choose a primary residence at all, literally nothing shows up, I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, character repairs and close the game and launcher completley then reopening them but nothing works
Make sure you have a ship/ starter ship with “Star Citizen Digital Download” in your hangar. If not, you may have to buy another starter package, and log out log back in. Had this happen to me when i exchanged my Avenger Titan starter ship to a Taurus and I lost the Digital ownership, I had to re buy an Aurora with the pass.
@globaltempest8339 yeah turns out my dumbass accidentally melted my aurora before upgrading it to a reliant core and it yeeted my game after the update, so imma buy either the cutless black starter pack or the freelancer starter pack
I have been registered to the game since 2015, I have been trying it for a few hours a year for the last few years just to see if it is playable, I constantly see people playing it comfortably on the internet and when I install and try the latest version, very stupid bugs prevent me from progressing in the game. I have also tried the 4.0 update a few times but I could not even finish the tutorial. When I first played, quantum travel was sending me back to the wrong places. On my second try, the olisar shuttles were not moving. I could not get over 25fps with my 3090 graphics card without going into space.
I try Start Citizen once a year around this time. Every year, I install, login, run to the train, claim my ship, run to the ship, get killed by a door, get killed by an elevator, etc. After 1-3 hours of struggling, I uninstall until the next year attempt to play. This year I made it all the way to my ship. I was taking off and the top hangar door started to close as soon as it finished opening. My ship hit the door and my character fell through the ship, down to the hangar floor which was apparently only visual because I fell through that too, then I fell under the station and after a while I died when I hit something white. 10+ years of development. This ain't a scam, its just managed by Boeing executives.
I got on yesterday and couldn't get an elevator to a hangar at everus harbor. I tried later and was able to but did a mission on Hurston and fell through the planet. Think I'm gonna hold off for a bit.
Whats funny is i had the same experience 4 years ago, here we are. With more features yes, playable? Depend on the time of the day, fun? I dont even know anymore.
I have not been able to log in to PU since Christmas. I am getting the 60030 error. I am really sad because I got an X56 HOTAS and a Tobii 5 for Star Citizen. Back to Star Field.
I have two kids, and the only time I can play is in the evening when they are asleep. First, I have to wait in a queue with 300 other people. When it’s finally my turn, the game won’t load and I can’t even play.
It was running the best it ever did when I joined 4.0.preview 4 days ago. Elevators and buttons responded instantly. Now I'm getting server crashes, elevators not working , and New Babbage won't let ships land. I guess it comes down to the same old problem. Too many in universe objects/ ships left lying around.
Got sent to prison, couldn’t leave. Jumped severs, finally escaped. Now verified missions don’t work in Stanton it appears like some parts of my account are flagged with a crime stat even though I have none. Tried all the work arounds, getting a fine and paying it. Having a friend share missions (didn’t work), everything and still no luck. When I die, it says I’ve been captured by the UEE and have a 1 hour 25 minute sentence but I just wake up in the station hospital. Now I’ve give up trying to fix it, I’ve moved to Pyro and I’m living the life as a ex-con who can’t find work in Stanton. Honestly, even with all that I’m having fun, and I’m getting more money completing contracts in Pyro anyway.
Y’all haven’t seen anything yet I fully explored Pyro in wave one and then as soon as wave 2 hit a lot of extra crap performance hit as well. But as soon as they start backfilling Pyro with all the missing mechanics and features that aren’t in the patch yet and all the players who are locked out start backfilling in you’ll see some of the crappiest performance since 3.18. When Roberts said 2025 was gonna be the year of stability that wasn’t a promise. That was a warning of how bad it’s gonna be.
Thanks. This great video gives me exactly the intel I needed about state of 4.0. Great looking game, but just to many bugs and unexpected events happening. Not worth the effort for me. But still flying around looks amazing. Cheers
Well, 4.0 has been...... interesting. Had fun the day of release but been stuck in a 60030 error since the day after with NO response from CIG on the ticket or issue council
I may look cool, but since the 4.0 preview was launch, hardly any missions work! At first week I managed to do some hauling but since that everything has been so bugged that the game is virtually unplayable. I really hope this will change when the CIG people come back from the holidays. They really need to focus on basic playability next year as they've promised.
SC updates are so funny to me to watch because the players are like "THIS is the update that will fix everything". Only to actually play it and be like "This update broke way more stuff then it fixed and its trash, we wanna go back"
They didn't have time to complete the mission refactor before the holiday. So they decided to have two different live builds. First 4.0 patch was expected to be buggy.
It's been like this for 10 years man, all propaganda bs all of these sc creators are liars who only want to profit of tricking people into believing "this is the one".
At what point does a crowdfunding campaign become a cover for an endless fraud scheme? There seriously needs to be a documentary made about this game, its development, and its players.
I just got into sc for the first time this Christmas… I have been so excited to try playing it. So far I’ve had highs and lows, the first two days it was impossible for me to even get out of my hangar. I think the game wouldn’t be too bad if they could just figure out the basics. Get ship, fly ship, land ship. If they could make sure it works 99% of the time I’m not sure if people would complain as much. (With that said I am addicted to it now)
The space simulator doesn't let you spawn ships, fly them out of the hangar, do missions with them, or even travel in them across a server boundary? Sounds like a great space simulator!
@@arenomusic I think what people right now are failing to notice is that that’s what the game has been for quite a while, it’s just that with 4.0 everybody seems to just think it’s been like that forever
I have just really not been enjoying the "degrading" of the patch. I don't know why the F it degrades like this but it is very frustrating. Things that worked day one now don't work at all
Do you know that you can get out the guardian cockpit without going through the interior? Look at the button on your chest, hold f, the option to exit ship is the lower right of the wheel.
I love the game. It's amazing when it works, but super frustrating when it doesn't. It breaks in ways that prevent you from accomplishing basic tasks, like calling an elevator or sitting outside of a hanger door assigned to you waiting for it to open, and it never does. Since the 4.0 launch, it's been a 50/50 mix between working and not. But overall, the game concept and where it's going keep you hooked and returning for more punishment followed by a bittersweet reward.
Bought the game at 4.0, this is the buggiest game ive ever played and i played day one cyberpunk, my experience has been very rough. Ive lost so much money due to bugs. But i also cant stop playing lmao
Just a tiny toiny tip. 1:25 If you wanna land smoother without using decoupled, you can change thruster output by using Ralt+MouseWheel to make a smooth decent!
Basically unplayable. Elevators not working, unbelievable queue to get into the game… ships exploding in hangars, stuck in hangar, doors not opening. But funny enough it seams to work PERFECTLY for all the streamers… funny that. I don’t think I ever heard Olli be negative in one video :D
Thats because all those streamers are cheating using nightcity cheat tool which fixes all the bugs we get along with all the extra benifits of cheats as well dirty rats, CIG need to perma bann people using nightcity and make them buy the game again and again for every time they get caught the price of the game should double for that individual and you should only be allowed to use 1 bank card for the purchase of the game along with you adreess name and phoo ID.
Most SC steamers depend on the SC community for their TH-cam views and money. If a SC Streamer would be truthful and point out the steaming pile of dung that is SC after 14 years of development, they will lose subscribers and views and therefore their money. I would only take SC content creators seriously if they have monetisation turned off and no other affiliation with CIG.
My experience with Star Citizen was totally frustrating. I started playing right at the end of 3.24.3 and when I started learning about the game I found out that there would be a wipe, OK. I started on 4.0 and I couldn't log in, when I could log in, I couldn't get quests, when I did get the quests they bugged and I couldn't do them, until I gave up on the quests, decided to go to the website and buy a Vulture and play the game the way I could. After a lot of scraping ships and panels, I was convinced that the game was starting to flow, but 3 days ago I tried to log in to the game and I couldn't anymore. It said that my character was stuck in a shard and that I should wait a bit. I waited 20 minutes and tried again, without success. I waited 30 minutes and tried again, without success. I did a search and they said to uninstall the game and try again. If that didn't work, I could try checking the files, which would probably fix it. Nothing worked. So I searched the forums and saw people saying that the developers still haven't solved this error, and that it all depends on luck. I gave up trying, I gave up on Star Citizen. It's not worth all the stress and anger over a game and developers who don't care about the players. So until the future when Star Citizen is better, I'm done with Star Citizen, at least for a few months.
Being locked out for over a week now due to a 60030 error has made 4.0 extremely frustrating. I’m not sure how much more I’m willing to put up with after this.
I mean this respectfully but....1.56m subs and an 85% success rate on launch day with a 6 hour stream is very sus considering the majority of everyone else not being able to play. They stream sniped major streamers when they hyped up the mole so im down for any conspiracy
Completely broken. Missions don’t work and have had to retry multiple times just for one reward. This year no more features just stability. It’s what we deserve at this point.
I am patient, this game is something else that current games have to offer but that's why it takes time. It's not a simple game like Elden Ring or World of Warcraft. They do know they have to hurry up and deliver, some big titles are coming and time is running out.
I'm patient too.. it's the constant additions nobody asked for ( eg Guardian, MM ) that get the dev attention over Gameplay Gameplay consistently is torched for $ ship sales, or some unnecessary content
@@seekerhooligan781 perhaps, but lets say there are ship devs that need to keep working while the server devs are working, sadly making ships goes faster then the other.
I've done a few starter missions and been plagued by as many bugs as I have minutes in game so far. Half of them game-breaking level. Like my ship gmod-clipping nose-up through the underside of the pad, complete with erratic bouncing and thunking noises. Falling through the launch pad after calling my ship and looking up from the bottom of the pad elevator with no recourse other than suicide. My ship randomly blowing up while entering atmo for LITERALLY no reason. Getting stuck on the lip of some fucking stairs after returning to try to accomplish the same mission after recovering from my ship blowing up in open air with no one around for no reason and dying because I couldn't move from the spot. I'm thinking I'll wait a month or two and maybe try again. I came back after about a year and it's less laggy but the bugs are far more infuriatingly-common and experience-ruining than they were.
It’s been bloody murder trying to do anything, I would say 70% of the time I’ve tried to do ANYTHING I’ve encountered some kind of bug, and 40% of the time it causes failure of what I was doing. So much wasted time is frustrating as hell. The most fun I’ve had was entering the beauty of pyro screenshot contest where I spent the whole day flying around just sightseeing.
I had a Crime Stat issue that made it a 'challenge' to get out of Klescher. The worst part was not having missions. Finally futsed around with it enough (4 troops to prison and two resets) and got them back today! They are various issues you can work around. I've played regularly for 5 years so I'm used to it. That said, I really like where it's going. I expect a stability update soon, so it will get better.
4.0 was amazingly fun, then i left during server error and now my account is bricked and i cant even load anymore. error 60030. CIG is asleep during holidays so me and a thousand others share this issue and cant enjoy sadge
my experience with 4.0 i spawned, got to my ship inside the hanger and the turrets OUTSIDE started shooting me and blew every ship i spawned so im not gonna play till 4.0 officially launches
I booted into 4.0, took ages to realise I needed a Jump module. I then landed somewhere random on Bloom, looked arround and imagined I was on some sort of vacation. In this moment I had the mindset of "I don't know what the game of this decade will be, but star citizen has the potential for game of the century". I then tried to go to Monox, glitched out of my ship and died. So classic Star Citizen experience I guess.
I've not been able to play for the past 5 days because of 60030 and 30018 errors that pop up after waiting 15 minutes in the login loading screen. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Nothing works.. just ignored... nothing has changed.. they get to save tons of upload.. why fix it? evidentally has not been so must be working out great for cig..
There is no fix at the moment contrary to a comment above. CIG is still on holiday and hasn't provided any information on a timeline for a fix, finding a better game is the only option
When you could not turn...That "bug" is the same I have when eating at stations at times, and I need to put helmet back on...kinda like when you fly in de-coupled mode.. 🙂 Has been around forever. You can turn, but you need to overturn like 90 degrees..
Imagine spending a couple of hours in a mission, to finally fall through a Elevator. Just an example. Really cool with all the new features but still, if the basic things will not work. What's the point? I'll wait for the Live version in 2035.
My main issues are my ship rarely spawns in my hanger first time, I have to claim for it even though its been stored. Also when doing cargo hauling missions sometimes the cargo is not available/doesn't spawn at the pick up location and also when dropping off at the delivery point it doesn't register that I've delivered it so I do all that work for nothing. having to abandon contracts because of horrendous bugs that shouldn't exist kind of kills the fun.
It's honestly the same shit but a bit bigger now. Instead of fun gameplay they added mundanity. Looks amazing. Fun fly around. Maybe look again next year
I’ve run into about 5 different game breaking bugs. I’ve tried to push through and work around them to play a different way but then I run into a new game breaking bug. At first I couldn’t complete a bugged haul mission, then all the systems in the prison are broken. Can’t hand mine, can’t escape prison and can’t even leave by the elevator when your sentence ends. Then contracts stop appearing completely. Cargo bay of the 315p still doesn’t work. Server still crashing.
Brother, I believe you're the HAPPIEST person to ever play SC. I just love how much joy I see in you as you play, regardless of bugs or whatever. You surelly are a breath of fresh air withing the community!
Did a CZ run with my org, everything stopped moving, relogged to get an infinite loading screen, restarted the game and my computer over and over, and finally got back in just in time for a server error. Don't play this patch.
I was really addicted to Hauling with my Taurus + Argo. However, after about a week, bugs started happening. I couldn’t pick up contracts, or I’d get them and spend a while transporting/moving etc - then all of a sudden it wouldn’t count as finished… it’s exhausting. Made 800k in a few hrs and I’ve been sat on that since, as I cannot be bothered playing. The Argo when entered in my Hanger seems to bug and fling me into a wall, to which I die as well… it’s been so mixed.
Playable but only with great resolve. We play this game in spite of itself. Why do we do this?? We HOPE it will live up to what we know it can be. We see glimmers of here and there that keep us coming back. Here’s hoping 2025 delivers more polish and content than “features”
Anybody getting mad/being surprised over their SC experience, even in 4.0, at this point I feel like should just go to therapy or something. The Sun rises in the East, the sky is blue and SC don't work that good yet. Lol.
its really really bad.. got my hopes back up when the black screens and quantum jumps were fixed. but things have just been getting worse and worse every day to the point I dont even believe they will be able to fix this for everyone without a server reset or something.
my experience playing 12hours a day has been pure server errors, quantum bugs and hanger bugs. Loss of ships/money. and missions constantly bugging out and not being sharable. probably the worst patch since 3.18/19.
love the performance of the game now in 4.0. but I've been having big issues with Infinite loading screens, login errors when loading game up. black screens/server crashes. I mostly just run cargo and explore. so far only been able to finish a total of 3 contracts without something detrimental happening to me in some way or another. but when I do finally get into the game on a good server set etc. its absolutely amazing!

My experience has been buggy, but when it works it makes me hopeful for the future.
That is something that has been said since 2.0 came out. This time however, it does feel different knowing that server meshing is in place, and having experienced 4.0 PTU and how smooth that was.
@@chupica100Now that server meshing is here and we can see how good it is, we know these issues are so much deeper than server performance. The fact that everyone isn't running to the bank is genuinely scary.
When you say future you must mean another game developer making it better and faster.
@@chupica100You forget this is just the most basic form of server meshing, nowhere near dynamic server meshing which is probably going to be 5.0 or even 6.0

actually if you go behind the wormhole while it's open and people are flying through it you can actually go inside and look around without being pulled through. it's all there and you can see inside, you're just not classed as jumping and it's visual only. you can see invisible ships (their nametags) fly through your position as you occupy the same space but aren't affected by the tunnel, it's quite strange
miss your vids!
@@pumb0 Agreed!
I know it's been unplayable for a lot of people but I've been playing it a massive amount and it's genuinely been a better experience than any other patch I've played. Definitely still a lot to go, but I've been enjoying a ton
I'm been in an infinite loading screen for the past 24 hours. Cannot wait for a new patch.
_I know your life sucks guys, and you're having a really bad too day too, but I just wanted to let you know that I'm doing better than ever!_
Same here, it's been smoother and just much better overall.
Yea I think I'm about to finally buy it... I've never known so much about a game I've still yet to play lol. Been following on and off for like 8 years and still have managed to refrain from buying it cus I don't wanna be that guy who acts surprised or feels burnt jumping in too early when I can't always afford to just disappear 50-100 bucks for something that doesn't work right.
Since nearlly 15 years in development, crazy if you say „definitely still a lot to go„, how much time and money do they still need
-Elevators dont work (To hangar)
-Hospitals screens dont work (Can't get a medbed room)
-Cargo not able to be transferred to hangar (occupied by invisible cargo)
-Unable to log in (Timed out + x5)
-Contested zones enimies shots through walls
-Server puked it self (able to be in, but all things dont work)
-Unable to buy anything (Food, water, weapons, armor etc)
-Bought Cargo dont show up in cargo elevator
-Ships spawns in floor of hangar
-Server locks you (Tried all method known to avoid this
-Player get stuck in dashboard of ship when enter seat
- Quantum drive stops halfway to destinations
- Quantum jumps stops 1000 km from space stations
- Players get stuck in main cities
But hey.. Happy to hear you didn't have any trouble...

If I could double like your comment I would.. that's been my experience EVERY time in 4.0
These bugs have been around for the past 7+ years and not going away anytime soon
Don't forget the bug with prison.. not run into it myself (as I'm a law abiding citizen) but chat was full of people complaining about being stuck in Kleisher.
Many fellow citizens are on mandatory vacation due to 30018 & 60030 error. We'll be back in next patch hopefully. 😂
Try turning on a VPN, THEN opening the launcher > Starting the game.
@@nierdrifter3276 Doesn't help. It's a server side issue.
@@nierdrifter3276 This does not fix the issue. Nor do character resets, having a friend track down your ship and destroy it, setting network IP, completely fresh installing windows, changing computers, sacrificing your favorite cat, being patient, going to arena and playing in the ship you log off in, spending more money, making a customer ticket, and on and on. Account is in purgatory. Gone.
@@nierdrifter3276imagine having to install a VPN to have a slight chance of not crashing
Im mentally dying because of the 60030 error. I upgraded my starter ship the day i got the error. I dont think people realize that we literally cant play the game a t a l l
I think the main reason you're having fun is because you're just wandering around looking at stuff and trying things out. If you have a specific game loop or goal in mind, you'll probably hit a snag that will make it unplayable. It's much better if you just go and have fun without trying to focus too hard on a specific goal.
It's really only fun when its "new" to you. Once you get to do the same mission over and over whether it's delivering packages (noobs) or ERT's (extreme risk target pve) or even cargo.
It takes so long to do all since you have to load, train, fly, etc. After the first few times you do something it just gets old and you really find out there's nothing fun about star citizen and you eventually have to "create" your own adventures using your own imagination of what this game could be, but it's not. This is why you see SC creators succeed in creating videos based on their own little adventure they had.
@@VllILESome don't get bored of doing the same contracts, obviously in your opinion it gets old for you
@@VllILEWhy are you still engaging SC content if you loathe the game so much? Genuine inquiry.
I think you have hit the nail , as to why so many YTers sing it praises , while players tear their hair out.
@@ScreamingAtSink ?? everyone gets bored of doing the same contracts over and over and over again, with a very high chance of it being bugged or the game is slow or just random glitches, which all will ruin the entire experience and in most cases will have you respawn or reload, and poof lost your ship, your gear and whatever cargo you had.
There is no need to defend the crap of the current state of gameplay loops, it's obvious to everyone what the crappy state it is in.
But hey, lets get excited for more ship releases instead of CIG actually fixing gameplay
"hasn't been bad for me" proceeds to hit bug after bug after bug.....
debatable
As long as the content creator is all smiling and laughing, it's all that matters. Doesn't matter the game is in shambles.
@@_ReaperHere As long as the creator is getting paid*
@@Zaicyn 1st of all I was being sarcastic and 2nd of all, what I meant was, if the creator is always smiling and happy, that would imply the game is good and not a buggy mess the game currently is. And all this while he clearly shows that he encountered a game breaking bug.
Also, if you pick on these creators for being misleading, people will shit on you cause how dare you.
It's been very difficult to play. Every time I hop in and try to do something I hit a roadblock: missions don't work, markers disappear, hangar issues, quantum travel issues, desync, falling through planets, not being able to loot... and the list goes on, specially now that servers seem to be degrading. I wouldn't recommend jumping in to play, wait at least a month or two and see if they manage to stabilize it.
Constant black screens followed by 60k errors, mission markers not appearing, bounties not registering kills, cargo giving too much or too little cargo, New Babbage (Extreme), it's been an absolute nightmare on AUS servers.
That a 14 reference?
Prison is inescapable and can't use the elevator once your time is done....
Aua server has been running OK for me but then I don't do bounties, and yes hauling missions give too much cargo sometimes. But that was 4 days ago , I can't even make the elevators work on my station today.
Not just AUS, US servers same issues.
It's borderline unplayable... like always. That's what going on with SC 4.0
Facts.
Accurate. Its a bare Minimum Viable Product. Funding is cresting now (peaked). So they’ve pushed this development model as far as the gaming community would bare MVPs. Its time for solidifying the fundamentals and move forward with minimal regression
I somehow a good time playing idk how i guesse I was just lucky. I played a lot and Made a good amount of Money (2 million) with hauling missions
Really? So crazy people can have such different experiences. I haven’t had even one bug or anything at all
We were warned that If we don't want a hard time, to prudently and patiently WAIT for a while because 4.0, unlike most other updates, comes with out-of-the-ordinary changes that will have bugs and technical issues. We're conformed with Arena Commander for the time being, and something quick and basic (like box delivery, a little cargo hauling and trade) in Stanton (NOT in Pyro yet). So far, as reports out there are going out, such warnings became true and thus are followed through. 5:50 6:40
I hate it that we all paid for some ships that they haven't developed yet , but they still have time to make new ships with that funding. Give me my damn Apollo Medivac already, CIG!
Been bricked from 4.0 since Xmas day... 60030 Error. Tried everything under the sun and no go. Have enjoyed playing in 4.0 before that... So much I don't want to play 3.24 now.
character reset that they removed fixed us
It's not been great. Half of the hauling missions don't register as completed, the bounty missions don't register as completed. QT UI phases in an out so I have no idea how long I'm traveling. I generally have to claim my ship twice before it will show up
The experience is so bad. If i only wanted to fly around and look around it would be better but if you want to do ANY of the gameplay loops its always bugs ruining everything all the time.
My experience is non existant since i have that stuck in a share bug. Played for 1 day, Crashed and now cant Log in for a week.
Same here..
and it will not change..
@@realdeal485It doesn't need to change. The point of the update wasn't to make the game better, it was to sell the Guardian QI.

I was doing ok (all things considered) yesterday, but today, 4.0 is a dumpster fire. Keybinds jacked up all of a sudden, cargo missions no longer working, etc. SaltEMike confirmed this as well. 4.0 as of 12/30 is DEGRADING into an even worse experience. Just waiting on the entirety of CIG to get out of their jammies and get back to work. I did.
they not back till the 20th , let that sink in
when 4.0 works, it is beautiful! unfortunately, half the time I've been playing, so many bugs... hauling missions stop paying after doing a couple... losing ped trying to do manual cargo hauling (cargo disappearing after loading on elevator)... big bag of mixed feelings...
It will be awesome once CIG gets back from holidays...for now it is a nightmare...comparing this to 3.18...everything I touch have so many bugs that I am not sure that they will be able to fix all this. Second problem is that servers are degrading and performance will be close to 3.24.3 in a few days. I am wondering is it even possible to have constant and reliable performance for more then a few weeks even with server meshing! Whole 2025 should be about 4.0 and making this patch flawless before they add anything new to Star Citizen. We don't need new mechanics in this game for next year or two...they need to polish all the mechanics that we already have.
Played about 50 hours, died to many times to bugs(atls), can’t get out of my medium hanger at New Babbage. Missions not showing, hauling missions being hit or miss.
I think I’ll give it a break till mid jan.
I've had a couple decent-ish sessions but it's been mostly unplayable for me. Missions bugging out, ships disappearing, mobiglass/QT not working properly, global chat has been down for several days amongst a half a dozen other bugs I've run into. I think once these things get ironed out for most players, it will be one step closer to becoming an actual game.
Outside of that, been hitting 100+ FPS and the visuals are great. Music is absolutely fantastic. Server meshing seems to be a success. These things make me hopeful for the future, but like with every other major patch the game has had, we'll see.
It's running with more FPS for me (AMD+Vulkan) but I have just a different set of Bugs than in 3.24. I think most of it has to do with server Mashing. Mainly the elevators and movable objects are buggy. Here and there I have a crash to the Desktop but that's most likely due to Vulkan being in Beta. I don't have strange/leggy character behavior and broken/leggy doors as in 3.24. Also, do not get into jail. It's broken and you can't get contracts anymore unless you do another crime...
Going on 10 days 60030 code as well as 100s of others dealing with the same issue. As of right now there is no fix for the 30018-60030 just have to wait for a patch. You have a lot of workarounds that don't work.
tobi eye tracker sounds cool but man what a strain on the eyes since your focusing on a screen and just twisting your head. to act like you looking around but your still looking in front of you at the screen. needs multiple screens to feel natural
I played the eptu release and it was INCREDIBLE everything works really well with no issues.
Then it went to live. Absolutely awful. The first week of trying to play i was stuck in babbage, not able to leave tje hangar or even spawn my ship.
Finally i got out but thr server was pretty awful. I quit at a station and cant even load into the game anymore from a 60k error. Haven't been able to enjoy or see anything
It feel nice to play, besides the bugs with hangers and missions…. Worst is tho, you cant get in anymore couse of the Hanger logging. That is just the sadest…. Its fine if the product has issues, but not beeing able to use it at all is in my opinion a very big problem that atleast deserves some feedback from CIG
I've had some issues, but my FPS has also doubled in some locations, and the game is MUCH smoother.
i will admit my fps has never been this high due to the constant throttling that has ensued my 30 months of playing
Performance is not playability
@@arenomusic. So what? He's not talking about playability.
95% perfect sounds like the exception. every time ive been on the 4.0 preview at least its been absolute chaos for players. Had to rescue people from New Babbage because the doors to ship hangars didnt work. 10 people at Tressler couldnt summon ships and when I did finally server hop it brough up 2 of the SAME ship dancing with each other.
Maybe this is because its preview and Ive not been playing proper 4.0 yet? but man its the same as it ever was. endless QT/Nav troubles as well.
I'd describe SC as a game, in general, to sum up its whole existance thus far as 'Occasionally functional'
Bought a starter package on Christmas eve... had fun for about 1 hour 30 mins while getting used to the control.
Started to glitch in Port Tressler. Logged out, and been locked out for about 6 days now. 30018 errors mostly, sometimes 60030.
Tried all troubleshooting, dns flushing, character resets, entering adena commander, etc. But nothing works. Really frustrating. They need to focus on stability
welcome to scam citizen
I got those errors at one point. I managed to get rid of them by resetting the launcher (press ctrl+alt+shift+r) logging back in and 'installing' the preview again
I haven't been able to play because I can't choose a primary residence at all, literally nothing shows up, I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, character repairs and close the game and launcher completley then reopening them but nothing works
Make sure you have a ship/ starter ship with “Star Citizen Digital Download” in your hangar. If not, you may have to buy another starter package, and log out log back in.
Had this happen to me when i exchanged my Avenger Titan starter ship to a Taurus and I lost the Digital ownership, I had to re buy an Aurora with the pass.
@globaltempest8339 yeah turns out my dumbass accidentally melted my aurora before upgrading it to a reliant core and it yeeted my game after the update, so imma buy either the cutless black starter pack or the freelancer starter pack
I have been registered to the game since 2015, I have been trying it for a few hours a year for the last few years just to see if it is playable, I constantly see people playing it comfortably on the internet and when I install and try the latest version, very stupid bugs prevent me from progressing in the game. I have also tried the 4.0 update a few times but I could not even finish the tutorial. When I first played, quantum travel was sending me back to the wrong places. On my second try, the olisar shuttles were not moving. I could not get over 25fps with my 3090 graphics card without going into space.
no contracts, Server lag, not playable
I try Start Citizen once a year around this time. Every year, I install, login, run to the train, claim my ship, run to the ship, get killed by a door, get killed by an elevator, etc. After 1-3 hours of struggling, I uninstall until the next year attempt to play.
This year I made it all the way to my ship. I was taking off and the top hangar door started to close as soon as it finished opening. My ship hit the door and my character fell through the ship, down to the hangar floor which was apparently only visual because I fell through that too, then I fell under the station and after a while I died when I hit something white.
10+ years of development. This ain't a scam, its just managed by Boeing executives.
I haven't played this game for months now. Just don't want to waste my time testing a unfinished game.
The flying is way too stable
I got on yesterday and couldn't get an elevator to a hangar at everus harbor. I tried later and was able to but did a mission on Hurston and fell through the planet. Think I'm gonna hold off for a bit.
Whats funny is i had the same experience 4 years ago, here we are. With more features yes, playable? Depend on the time of the day, fun? I dont even know anymore.
I have not been able to log in to PU since Christmas. I am getting the 60030 error. I am really sad because I got an X56 HOTAS and a Tobii 5 for Star Citizen. Back to Star Field.
I have two kids, and the only time I can play is in the evening when they are asleep. First, I have to wait in a queue with 300 other people. When it’s finally my turn, the game won’t load and I can’t even play.
It was running the best it ever did when I joined 4.0.preview 4 days ago. Elevators and buttons responded instantly. Now I'm getting server crashes, elevators not working , and New Babbage won't let ships land.
I guess it comes down to the same old problem. Too many in universe objects/ ships left lying around.
Got sent to prison, couldn’t leave. Jumped severs, finally escaped. Now verified missions don’t work in Stanton it appears like some parts of my account are flagged with a crime stat even though I have none. Tried all the work arounds, getting a fine and paying it. Having a friend share missions (didn’t work), everything and still no luck. When I die, it says I’ve been captured by the UEE and have a 1 hour 25 minute sentence but I just wake up in the station hospital.
Now I’ve give up trying to fix it, I’ve moved to Pyro and I’m living the life as a ex-con who can’t find work in Stanton.
Honestly, even with all that I’m having fun, and I’m getting more money completing contracts in Pyro anyway.
Even with the 2025 focus on playability, it will be 2029 before they address this bug alone. The project is looking doomed.
@ I guess I’m just destined to be an outlaw then 😂
my experience for 4.0, is i got stuck in the hangar, the end.
When the contracts aren't bugged, and the hangars aren't eating our ships, it's incredible.
Y’all haven’t seen anything yet I fully explored Pyro in wave one and then as soon as wave 2 hit a lot of extra crap performance hit as well. But as soon as they start backfilling Pyro with all the missing mechanics and features that aren’t in the patch yet and all the players who are locked out start backfilling in you’ll see some of the crappiest performance since 3.18. When Roberts said 2025 was gonna be the year of stability that wasn’t a promise. That was a warning of how bad it’s gonna be.
I sadly got stuck in a shard, unable to play since 3 days now. A shard crashed, and i'm apparently "still connected" to that shard... That crashed.
Had same problem, did a repair character and it worked
Thanks. This great video gives me exactly the intel I needed about state of 4.0. Great looking game, but just to many bugs and unexpected events happening. Not worth the effort for me. But still flying around looks amazing. Cheers
Well, 4.0 has been...... interesting. Had fun the day of release but been stuck in a 60030 error since the day after with NO response from CIG on the ticket or issue council
Sounds like a very interesting loading screen you're looking at! Thanks for the input!!!
The moment you said you’ve only had a good experience in 4.0, everything starts to bug out and the game breaks. Lol
Launching a preview version and the servers are complete crap, CIG goes on vacation and leaves players frustrated.
I may look cool, but since the 4.0 preview was launch, hardly any missions work! At first week I managed to do some hauling but since that everything has been so bugged that the game is virtually unplayable. I really hope this will change when the CIG people come back from the holidays. They really need to focus on basic playability next year as they've promised.
They added all kinds of new bugs in 4.0 sweet cant wait to find a away around them
SC updates are so funny to me to watch because the players are like "THIS is the update that will fix everything". Only to actually play it and be like "This update broke way more stuff then it fixed and its trash, we wanna go back"
Ofc its buggy at release they will fix it after the holidays
They didn't have time to complete the mission refactor before the holiday. So they decided to have two different live builds. First 4.0 patch was expected to be buggy.
It's been like this for 10 years man, all propaganda bs all of these sc creators are liars who only want to profit of tricking people into believing "this is the one".
No player say that so... Where ?
At what point does a crowdfunding campaign become a cover for an endless fraud scheme?
There seriously needs to be a documentary made about this game, its development, and its players.
I just got into sc for the first time this Christmas… I have been so excited to try playing it. So far I’ve had highs and lows, the first two days it was impossible for me to even get out of my hangar. I think the game wouldn’t be too bad if they could just figure out the basics. Get ship, fly ship, land ship. If they could make sure it works 99% of the time I’m not sure if people would complain as much. (With that said I am addicted to it now)
The New Babbage trap. It's recommended as a great starting zone but the trains and hangars are broken and you need to get a lift off the planet.
The space simulator doesn't let you spawn ships, fly them out of the hangar, do missions with them, or even travel in them across a server boundary?
Sounds like a great space simulator!
@@arenomusic I think what people right now are failing to notice is that that’s what the game has been for quite a while, it’s just that with 4.0 everybody seems to just think it’s been like that forever
I have had crashes, loading screen stuck, and then 3 hours of uninterrupted LIVE stream that was great even at 1440p...so same as usual. lol
I have just really not been enjoying the "degrading" of the patch. I don't know why the F it degrades like this but it is very frustrating. Things that worked day one now don't work at all
Do you know that you can get out the guardian cockpit without going through the interior? Look at the button on your chest, hold f, the option to exit ship is the lower right of the wheel.
Do you think this guy plays the game except to cash the CIG Venmo bonus?
He literally said it's what he'd meant to do.
@@arenomusicWho Tf are these clowns😂😂😂
I love the game. It's amazing when it works, but super frustrating when it doesn't. It breaks in ways that prevent you from accomplishing basic tasks, like calling an elevator or sitting outside of a hanger door assigned to you waiting for it to open, and it never does. Since the 4.0 launch, it's been a 50/50 mix between working and not. But overall, the game concept and where it's going keep you hooked and returning for more punishment followed by a bittersweet reward.
Bought the game at 4.0, this is the buggiest game ive ever played and i played day one cyberpunk, my experience has been very rough. Ive lost so much money due to bugs. But i also cant stop playing lmao
Just a tiny toiny tip. 1:25 If you wanna land smoother without using decoupled, you can change thruster output by using Ralt+MouseWheel to make a smooth decent!
Basically unplayable. Elevators not working, unbelievable queue to get into the game… ships exploding in hangars, stuck in hangar, doors not opening.
But funny enough it seams to work PERFECTLY for all the streamers… funny that. I don’t think I ever heard Olli be negative in one video :D
Thats because all those streamers are cheating using nightcity cheat tool which fixes all the bugs we get along with all the extra benifits of cheats as well dirty rats, CIG need to perma bann people using nightcity and make them buy the game again and again for every time they get caught the price of the game should double for that individual and you should only be allowed to use 1 bank card for the purchase of the game along with you adreess name and phoo ID.
Most SC steamers depend on the SC community for their TH-cam views and money. If a SC Streamer would be truthful and point out the steaming pile of dung that is SC after 14 years of development, they will lose subscribers and views and therefore their money. I would only take SC content creators seriously if they have monetisation turned off and no other affiliation with CIG.
@@bighit20100 Your spot on there!
Yea I'm tired of bored gamer telling folks in another 20 years it should be a playable game LMAO
My experience with Star Citizen was totally frustrating. I started playing right at the end of 3.24.3 and when I started learning about the game I found out that there would be a wipe, OK. I started on 4.0 and I couldn't log in, when I could log in, I couldn't get quests, when I did get the quests they bugged and I couldn't do them, until I gave up on the quests, decided to go to the website and buy a Vulture and play the game the way I could. After a lot of scraping ships and panels, I was convinced that the game was starting to flow, but 3 days ago I tried to log in to the game and I couldn't anymore. It said that my character was stuck in a shard and that I should wait a bit. I waited 20 minutes and tried again, without success. I waited 30 minutes and tried again, without success. I did a search and they said to uninstall the game and try again. If that didn't work, I could try checking the files, which would probably fix it. Nothing worked. So I searched the forums and saw people saying that the developers still haven't solved this error, and that it all depends on luck.
I gave up trying, I gave up on Star Citizen. It's not worth all the stress and anger over a game and developers who don't care about the players. So until the future when Star Citizen is better, I'm done with Star Citizen, at least for a few months.
Being locked out for over a week now due to a 60030 error has made 4.0 extremely frustrating. I’m not sure how much more I’m willing to put up with after this.
I mean this respectfully but....1.56m subs and an 85% success rate on launch day with a 6 hour stream is very sus considering the majority of everyone else not being able to play. They stream sniped major streamers when they hyped up the mole so im down for any conspiracy
Completely broken. Missions don’t work and have had to retry multiple times just for one reward. This year no more features just stability. It’s what we deserve at this point.
I am patient, this game is something else that current games have to offer but that's why it takes time. It's not a simple game like Elden Ring or World of Warcraft. They do know they have to hurry up and deliver, some big titles are coming and time is running out.
I'm patient too.. it's the constant additions nobody asked for ( eg Guardian, MM ) that get the dev attention over Gameplay
Gameplay consistently is torched for $ ship sales, or some unnecessary content
@@seekerhooligan781 perhaps, but lets say there are ship devs that need to keep working while the server devs are working, sadly making ships goes faster then the other.
My character has been stuck on a shard for 5 days. Character repair does nothing.
I've done a few starter missions and been plagued by as many bugs as I have minutes in game so far. Half of them game-breaking level.
Like my ship gmod-clipping nose-up through the underside of the pad, complete with erratic bouncing and thunking noises.
Falling through the launch pad after calling my ship and looking up from the bottom of the pad elevator with no recourse other than suicide.
My ship randomly blowing up while entering atmo for LITERALLY no reason.
Getting stuck on the lip of some fucking stairs after returning to try to accomplish the same mission after recovering from my ship blowing up in open air with no one around for no reason and dying because I couldn't move from the spot.
I'm thinking I'll wait a month or two and maybe try again. I came back after about a year and it's less laggy but the bugs are far more infuriatingly-common and experience-ruining than they were.
It’s been bloody murder trying to do anything, I would say 70% of the time I’ve tried to do ANYTHING I’ve encountered some kind of bug, and 40% of the time it causes failure of what I was doing. So much wasted time is frustrating as hell.
The most fun I’ve had was entering the beauty of pyro screenshot contest where I spent the whole day flying around just sightseeing.
TomG
I feel your pain Bro. Totally agree
I had a Crime Stat issue that made it a 'challenge' to get out of Klescher. The worst part was not having missions. Finally futsed around with it enough (4 troops to prison and two resets) and got them back today! They are various issues you can work around. I've played regularly for 5 years so I'm used to it. That said, I really like where it's going. I expect a stability update soon, so it will get better.
4.0 was amazingly fun, then i left during server error and now my account is bricked and i cant even load anymore. error 60030. CIG is asleep during holidays so me and a thousand others share this issue and cant enjoy sadge
We sank into 3.18 pretty much. The new 30k is a bastard (60014 or what it is)
my experience with 4.0 i spawned, got to my ship inside the hanger and the turrets OUTSIDE started shooting me and blew every ship i spawned so im not gonna play till 4.0 officially launches
I booted into 4.0, took ages to realise I needed a Jump module. I then landed somewhere random on Bloom, looked arround and imagined I was on some sort of vacation. In this moment I had the mindset of "I don't know what the game of this decade will be, but star citizen has the potential for game of the century". I then tried to go to Monox, glitched out of my ship and died. So classic Star Citizen experience I guess.
Still stuck at a rest stop unable to get the hanger doors open. Tried all the things, so I'll just wait and do other things.
my experience with 4.0 is... nothing, cant get past the 30005 launcher crash error/error 206.
I've not been able to play for the past 5 days because of 60030 and 30018 errors that pop up after waiting 15 minutes in the login loading screen. Does anyone know how to fix this?
The character repair feature on site usually fixes it.
@@roguetechpanda Nah dude tried that more than once. Didn't help at all.
Nothing works.. just ignored... nothing has changed.. they get to save tons of upload.. why fix it? evidentally has not been so must be working out great for cig..
saltemike had a vid talking about this, think he said you are SOL :(
There is no fix at the moment contrary to a comment above. CIG is still on holiday and hasn't provided any information on a timeline for a fix, finding a better game is the only option
When you could not turn...That "bug" is the same I have when eating at stations at times, and I need to put helmet back on...kinda like when you fly in de-coupled mode.. 🙂
Has been around forever.
You can turn, but you need to overturn like 90 degrees..
So why we all excited for 1.0? That means going back 3 stages and 15 years
Imagine spending a couple of hours in a mission, to finally fall through a Elevator. Just an example. Really cool with all the new features but still, if the basic things will not work. What's the point? I'll wait for the Live version in 2035.
Did you get some free ships or something to talk the game up?
My main issues are my ship rarely spawns in my hanger first time, I have to claim for it even though its been stored. Also when doing cargo hauling missions sometimes the cargo is not available/doesn't spawn at the pick up location and also when dropping off at the delivery point it doesn't register that I've delivered it so I do all that work for nothing. having to abandon contracts because of horrendous bugs that shouldn't exist kind of kills the fun.
It's such a cursed patch of Star Citizen.
The problem NOW is the game is more like "star contractor" instead of star citizen. :p
It's honestly the same shit but a bit bigger now. Instead of fun gameplay they added mundanity. Looks amazing. Fun fly around. Maybe look again next year
I’ve run into about 5 different game breaking bugs.
I’ve tried to push through and work around them to play a different way but then I run into a new game breaking bug.
At first I couldn’t complete a bugged haul mission, then all the systems in the prison are broken. Can’t hand mine, can’t escape prison and can’t even leave by the elevator when your sentence ends. Then contracts stop appearing completely. Cargo bay of the 315p still doesn’t work. Server still crashing.
Brother, I believe you're the HAPPIEST person to ever play SC. I just love how much joy I see in you as you play, regardless of bugs or whatever. You surelly are a breath of fresh air withing the community!
I haven’t been playing since 3.18 and with the new hud I thought I give the tutorial a shot but just got trapped in my apartment.
Did a CZ run with my org, everything stopped moving, relogged to get an infinite loading screen, restarted the game and my computer over and over, and finally got back in just in time for a server error.
Don't play this patch.
Hundreds of millions of dollars later still not fully released lol these developer are just milking the donations as long as possible one big scam
I was really addicted to Hauling with my Taurus + Argo. However, after about a week, bugs started happening.
I couldn’t pick up contracts, or I’d get them and spend a while transporting/moving etc - then all of a sudden it wouldn’t count as finished… it’s exhausting. Made 800k in a few hrs and I’ve been sat on that since, as I cannot be bothered playing.
The Argo when entered in my Hanger seems to bug and fling me into a wall, to which I die as well… it’s been so mixed.
I have had a lot of bugs. Even cargo missions do not work for me.
Playable but only with great resolve. We play this game in spite of itself. Why do we do this?? We HOPE it will live up to what we know it can be. We see glimmers of here and there that keep us coming back. Here’s hoping 2025 delivers more polish and content than “features”
2 more years
Anybody getting mad/being surprised over their SC experience, even in 4.0, at this point I feel like should just go to therapy or something. The Sun rises in the East, the sky is blue and SC don't work that good yet. Lol.
its really really bad.. got my hopes back up when the black screens and quantum jumps were fixed. but things have just been getting worse and worse every day to the point I dont even believe they will be able to fix this for everyone without a server reset or something.
I used to be able to play with vary little lag and bugs, but now it won’t even load I just fall threw the world
Laggy, often meeting non helping people, I never get far at all in the game at all. 😔
my experience playing 12hours a day has been pure server errors, quantum bugs and hanger bugs. Loss of ships/money. and missions constantly bugging out and not being sharable. probably the worst patch since 3.18/19.
love the performance of the game now in 4.0. but I've been having big issues with Infinite loading screens, login errors when loading game up. black screens/server crashes. I mostly just run cargo and explore. so far only been able to finish a total of 3 contracts without something detrimental happening to me in some way or another. but when I do finally get into the game on a good server set etc. its absolutely amazing!
gave up playing 4.0 after 6h of trying to get ANY ship spawning
I was having a good experience at first, but then I logged off one day and haven't been able to load in again and it's been over a week.
