One of the worst patches, but yesterday I had one of the top 5 gaming experiences in my whole life in star citizen

My top gaming experiences, not really in order:

  1. Diablo 2 finding a zod rune in ladder
  2. Beating twins of ahn quiraj in world of warcraft vanilla, 40 man raid
  3. hitting ascendant in destiny 2 competitive mode solo
  4. resident evil 7 in VR
  5. This one

Long text incoming, but I just had to share my experience yesterday.

I have a reclaimer pledged, and a shiv.

Ive been hard at work grinding since 4.8, loving like 60% of my time, and being frustrated the rest.

Most annoying bugs as a salvage main, is docking bug, empty container bug after refining and of course hangar stuff. My base is in Pyro, checkmate. I mostly munch and scrape ships around stations, but I concider myself a "vulture" player. Im not above eating someones ship if it nets me profits. And nothing is illegal in pyro....

Last couple of days I`ve been trying to find size 2 components to scavenge in NPC ships from claims. Gotten a few military C components for the shiv.

I am not part of an organisation, but I have two-three friends that play on and off, esepcially recently.

Yesterday I decided to go buy m5A and m6As in stanton and flew there with my shiv. I ended up in Hurston L1 green glade, and decided to claim my reclaimer there as well, for later. Figured i`d do a day in stanton and the salvage calls to me usually.

My friends logged on, and we decided to try Hathor In vivere PAF. Mostly to try and get parallaxes for the three of us.

We set up, set out and started. Only NPCs there, so we got comfy, started looting blue and red keycards, and eventually got the blades and found 2 parallaxes and a quartz for the third one. Better than nothing.

As we were exiting the aligment facility we noticed a polaris had landed.

Three players were trying to shoot open my shiv. I got there, and they immediatly fired on me. Me and one of the friends managed to down the 3 of them. I got one with atkzav x2 shots, and we killed the other two.

I figured they were going to respawn inside the polaris so me and one friend had a mad dash to the bridge to try and self-destruct their ship. Ended up losing the fight and me and my friend died, while the third one hid at the PAF.

We respawned at HUR-L1. The third friend ended up landing his spirit on top of the polaris and try to get inside it. He managed to land the ship, get out, but they killed him.

So I had the idea to take out my reclaimer, and try and ram them at least. Friend joined.

I quantumed back to the c1 spirit, which still were on top of their polaris. We then proceeded to fracture the polaris while they were looting the PAF, and they severely underestimated us I think, cause they just continued looting instead of going back in their polaris to take off.

We then munched the polaris (and hopefully it was full of torps) and all the components they were hoarding vanished. And since we fractured and destroyed their respawn vehicles, they probably had to go back to their primary res.

LOL

Get wrecked. And thanks for the experience. Also I sold the corpse of your Polaris
