[@DigThat32]

Big thanks, Tyler. Are you talking about setting up bindings on a specific device? I think most folks don't alter the keyboard bindings.

[@Raptor003-66]

@@DigThat32 yes for PC. I’m aware that some people recommend certain key bindings for combat, for cargo, for salvage, and for landings. Also, if you could give any tips as far as best video/audio settings. Thanks in advance, I appreciate your efforts and seeing more of your videos, I’m already subscribed.

Dude, this is the best how to vid I’ve ever seen for this game in 10 years. Clear, thorough, detailed, and extremely entertaining! So well done. I wish I was a new player to follow this play by play 😂! Keep up the great work! Sanford and Son was always on my mind! CIG MVP THIS MFs!

[@DigThat32]

Much appreciated!

[@boukm3n]

One recommendation for new players - MAKE FRIENDS! Experienced players are super helpful to new players. Don’t beg for money in global chat, instead inform chat you’re a new player and ask people if they need any help with missions. You’ll make friends quickly. I love these videos man. Straight to the point and incredibly helpful. I just started during IAE a few months ago and I’m understanding the game much more.

[@boukm3n]

Also, where did you get the first gold baller outfit and where is that fancy bar you were in at the end of the video?! @digthat32

[@DigThat32]

O7....Outfit was subscriber gear & the bar was the Million Mile High Club in Area 18

[@boukm3n]

@@DigThat32 damn that’s sick. Do I have to become a monthly CIG sub to get that or was it a time limited thing?

[@PrimroseParadox]

Peeps that beg often enough get a reputation as beggars, I know I recognize a few names on the Aussie servers for it. I started playing a few weeks ago and I've made so many friends by hopping into people's teams to crew and help out, or just chatting in global. This is a very social game, from my experience.

[@0p3r8r]

Be sure to add that you want to WORK for money when you state you are new, beggars say they are new hinting for white knights to throw money at them. I have total respect for players wanting to learn and make their own money.

[@solidicone]

Been playing this game for about 8 years or so, I can make it to oligarch pretty quickly at this point. But I like to get on youtube and check out videos like this just to see what people are suggesting. This is an excellent little guide. Gets a new person into some good learning gameplay loops, gives clear directions, gives control hints where needed and is to the point. No rambling all information. Guy has a voice built for radio and isn't annoying to listen to (so many creators for this game sound like a dying puma rubbing against a chalk board so I appreciate the ease of listening. Keep it up man, this needs some more exposure as its one of the better guides I've seen to get a new person into the game. Easy subscribe and follow from me.

Thanks for the views

[@NightfallChease]

what is your setup? I've got a 4070ti and i73700k and I've got like 40fps in big cities... Any recommendations for perormance?

Dude... This was the best put together I think I've ever seen in my entire life. Absolutely OUTSTANDING.

[@viclamota]

I'm a millionary made by salvage, got most of ships and everything the money is able to buy. But what makes me even more money was a roleplay i started about organization to save the turtles in Stanton, if you buy a turtle of myself you got yourself a ticket to one of our VIP events where we throw parties in different moons while people are high on maze, riding ground vehicles and doing some shennanigans. This... brings me more than 350 million in donations. Never beg, be smart and the money just come towards you.

[@DigThat32]

Way to get creative. Need my brain to work like that for real life monies

[@AceTwins-vf7ld]

@@DigThat32 btw i'd like to add you could salvage your own ships try flying to a station like everus, setting your spawn there then fly the biggest ship you can out then turn off the ship and die, when you revive in the clinic spawn your vulture and scrap your ship

One of the best tutorials I have seen for this game. I play since 2017 SC so I know I bit of the game. And i have to say you managed to keep your tutorial short but still explained something a new player might not now like putting attachments on your multitool. It was just the perfect mix of keeping it short as possible but don't cut out something important. Thanks for that, keep going

This is probably the best tutorial with great editing! Hands down recommended to share this video with new comers

[@robertlinva9503]

Great narrative! This was perfect for me as I haven't played SC in about 4 years. Getting back into it has required a refresher and this really helped. You covered so much great detail, remembering to move inventory around (so it stays with you), the whole rental paradigm and other stuff that I needed to be reminded of. Some of which was new to me. Great job.

[@TuckerKingDoesStuff]

Man this is such a well made video. Good job bro.

[@mephisto8101]

Most excellent video there, mate! Getting a Vulture and then a Reclaimer was the best decision money-wise in the game. Reclaimer is indeed a flying money printer right now. Some tips for salvaging: - Vulture: can stack a total of 23 cargo boxes plus buffer in it. I made about 800k - 1 million per hour with just disintegrating the hulls from 80k missions around Yela and selling at Grim Hex. - Reclaimer: 250k Hammerhead missions are the go to here. You can stack around 5 Hammerheads worth of 16 SCU boxes in the salvage processing hold. Store boxes on the balcony as well for more room and drop some at the end of the salvage processing hold down the hole at the end. 5 Hammerheads in boxes plus 1 in the buffer nets you a profit of 9-10 million per run in 1.5 - 2 hrs. - Landing the Reclaimer on planets is tricky. Take your time and be careful. It can only stay in the air in VTOL mode and when the ship is completely level. If your nose pitches up or down, you will lose height. - Flying a Reclaimer out of atmosphere takes a long time and lots of Hydrogen fuel. Fly to Grim Hex with a smaller ship, claim the Reclaimer here and take off to your salvage run. Do your salvaging and sell the cargo at major planets. Claim your smaller ship there and fly back to Grim Hex, where you claim the Reclaimer and take off again. - You are especially vulnerable when your are stacking boxes with a Reclaimer or a Vulture. Fly to safe place first if you're worried about pirates before you go to the cargo hold. You can select a jump target, fly a short time and then exit Quantum Drive midway, either by pressing "B" again or by shutting down the ship ("U"). - A Reclaimer cannot land everywhere, it needs large landing pads to stow it. Grim Hex and Planets have them. But you can refuel and sell your cargo anyway on other space stations: find a docking platform outside of the station with a dedicated entry for people on foot. You only need to "land" sideways so that some of the landing gear is touching the platform, then you can refuel and repair. Exit the Reclaimer and remember the number of your docking platform. Enter the station and sell your good there and return to your ship. Not ideal, as stations have smaller maximum inventory than planets, but doable. And above all else: Have fun! Star Citizen shines when you can play together with other people.

[@DigThat32]

Much appreciated!

[@SuperPope69]

Been playing for 5 years, watched tons of videos. Sometimes watch new player guides to see what the new player experience is like. This was the best new player guide I've seen. You're giving a step by step guide from new player to end game, but leaving it open for them to bounce around and do new things outside of just the grind. I especially like telling them to loot delivery locations for free armour, most new player guides tell them to go buy armour early wasting a bunch of their starter credits

[@Somethingcleverandwitty]

Great video. I started in SC in 2021 but stepped away for the last year. To many times, probably 80% I would loose everything because the game/server would crash. Your video was the first I have watched as I prepare to give this another whirl. Big help and encouragement, nice job!

Brother, thank you so much for your SC guides, I tried Elite Dangerous but it was very overwhelming, even these KZbinrs couldn't explain in short how to get rich faster, that's why I bought Star Citizen and only you explained how to get credits so fast, no barking for 30 minutes!

I love the speed and succinct nature of this guide. I was thinking about this subject not long ago. I wanted to see how I'd do with 20k and a starter. I started with an Aurora and put two more bulldogs on it, and went out to do some VLRTs. With call to arms you can get 4500-5K a bounty and just keep racking those up on moon with not a lot of atmo. On a couple occasions I even found some RMC, upping my haul by an extra 14K.

Amazing guide and your voice is so chill man. I would add anyone that wants some combat and profits. Can grind bounty rep up to ERT status instead of the getting a vulture. Then do ERT’s take out the enemy ships, scan any ship with cargo. Loot slam and weevil eggs then sell and brios or samsons. I find it more fun but it’s rng what you get (also I think it got nerfed) it’s still good tho. But yah the Reclaimer is big $$$$.
