Star Citizen - Cargo Hauling Disaster, Hull C Gameplay Nightmare - Losing Millions

[@henkolsonpietersen2242]

It’s really bad. A $500 cargo ship doesn’t work in the “cargo empires” patch. I was unable to sell my cargo with the Hull C, so I had to manually unload using a C2 and ATLS (the ATLS is horrible to use on a C2 because the cargo boxes HAVE to get stuck next to the ramp). Even then, freight elevators are broken 85% of the time. I keep falling through planets and hangars. CIG is really trying their best to make this as painful as possible for barely any upside and a huge investment.

[@henkolsonpietersen2242]

I forgot to mention how the ATLS has an insane bug where it jumps forwards and backwards about 100m when you enter it, which killed me a few times too (and is just frustrating in general with how slow it walks).

[@H0bby_Adventure]

Yup, it sucks when you pay good money for something and expect it to work!!! for the last 9 months, it seams like they are focussing more on the artistic part of the game and not so much of the structure and frame work (Game Play). Which in turn is making the game unplayable. Even with the new missions that they have released are some what unplayable. I am worried for 4.0 to drop as I have a feeling that it may brake the game. Maybe not in the first 2-3 weeks but it will have many problems!!!

[@H0bby_Adventure]

We haven't encountered that problem, but the one problem is that when some one exits the ATLS, they fall flat on their face! At first it was funny, but now it is just annoying!!!

I was so excited when CIG had announced the Hull-C was fixed. I've managed to play about one or two weeks with it. I've made a video about it, saying my french subscribers that the gameplay was now functionnal. Then, even without releasing a new version of the game, this gameplay has turned into a nightmare. Impossible to get the cargo, impossible to dock. And now i have a permanent message saying i need to retrieve the cargo when i leave a station. I'm so disappointed. I hope they will fix it once for all in the next version... Hope. That's it. "Salut" Citizen ! o7

[@H0bby_Adventure]

Ya, it seems very weird that it worked fine than out of nowhere with no update or patches, the Hull C broke!!! Wondering if this has something to do with the AI that they are working??? There was another mission that we did twice and then after that, the game play had nothing but problems!!! There will be a video of that coming soon! Guess the tinfoil hat is coming out with the conspiracy theory edition of SC will have to be about the AI working against the citizen!!!!! lol

[@KateMandoo.starcitizen]

@@H0bby_Adventure Thanks for your reply. Today i've taken my Hull-C out on EPTU4.0. It works like a charm ! Even better than before. You stop in the green box, stop the engines, loading is done, you can go. Same with unloading ! The only problem tonight is the QT which doesn't work at all with short distances. It sends you wherever he wants (and sometimes into a planet). Still 3 days of hard work before they release it in PU. I'm sure they will do their best. With crossed fingers i wish you a good evening ! o7

[@Quaternion-Games]

I lost 3.5 mil in a similar way, then stopped playing cargo hauler

[@H0bby_Adventure]

I feel you pain!!!!!! It's been some time since any cargo missions for us!! Just find it funny that the cargo missions in the cargo theme game is not working properly.

[@davryder12]

yep, you should look at the Herc C2 they made changes to how the landing gear sit and now the front ramp is unusable(4-6ft off the ground) and the back ramp collides with the ground causing the whole craft to teeter totter on the ramp and front gear. Dear CIG put the gear back to where it was and move the center mass behind the front landing gear... there nose dive issue fixed thank you, now fixe the cargo calling and ATC tasking along with the ASOP terminals instead of pumping out new ships for the mess of a game that half to 3/4s of us cant play or can play till something dumb that shouldn't happen does, causing us to rage quit. Sorry had to get that out.

[@H0bby_Adventure]

Yup!!!! I stopped using the Herc because of that very reason!!! not being able to get back into your ship is a problem!!!!!! Surprising that CIG is allowing this many problems in the game and not even bothering to fix any of the bugs!!

[@picapaukrk]

Autodocking yesterday moved my Polaris in a completely wrong way, then when I wanted to disengage I got impound warning. In the end my ship was completly locked in "your ship is impounded". Game over.

[@H0bby_Adventure]

Really??? Wonder if that was your Polaris that was floating there!!! But really, there is becoming more issues that's making the game hard to play. which in turn is making it hard to find motivation to want to play!!!!

[@louieavi]

I tried docking with a Hammerhead and dot did the same thing by not aligning.

[@H0bby_Adventure]

OK, good to know!!! Not good that it is happing, but that it is not just on our end!!!! It seems like CIG is leaving these bugs alone and not bothering to address them, until 4.0 drop! guess we'll have to see how things go!. When 4.0 drops, let us know if the issues get fixed or still there!

[@swedishraven75]

This is an issue that's been around almost since the day we got the Hull C released. Hopefulle by the 4.0 and forward and with economy overhaul it will be better addressed along with server meshing and so on.

[@H0bby_Adventure]

Just afraid that the server meshing might brake the game to the point that it won't even launch!!! But time will tell with what will happen. We really want the game to work!!!!!

[@AceOfHearts2244]

Is this in live???

[@swedishraven75]

Looks like it.

[@AceOfHearts2244]

I think it has been more reliable in 4.0, friend hasn’t had too many issues docking the polaris

[@henkolsonpietersen2242]

@@AceOfHearts2244cargo hauling has a LOT more issues than just docking. Freight elevators are broken most of the time (had to server hop NINE times yesterday and all three elevators were broken at my outpost). I was unable to sell my cargo on the $500 Hull C because the cargo station kept telling me to stand still (after trying 3 times for a combined 30 minutes I decided to unload using the awful $45 ATLS and my C2, on which the ATLS HAS to get the cargo stuck next to the ramp). On top of that I kept falling through the planet and through the hangars dying a combined 10 times. Entering the ATLS has some insane bug as well where you jump forwards and backwards up to 100m, which killed me a handful of times as well. Mind you that this is the “CARGO EMPIRES” patch.

[@H0bby_Adventure]

Yes, it's live. We don't do PTU, there are many great KZbinr's that play in the PTU and do coverage on it. But we focus on the live, and cover the on going "Up's & Downs" on what the average person would have to play on!

[@H0bby_Adventure]

You are correct.

[@Jafmanz]

totally BORKED docking OOOH noodles.... phuking tragic really... this is why the game has so much money and is such a massive development failure...

[@H0bby_Adventure]

We hear you and feel your frustration and wish there was more attention to the game play part instead of the art work!
