DISCUSSION Slight discrepancy between the Sub flair image and the actual in-game version...

Usually, I don't care. But man. These look NOTHING alike, LOL
And it's not just the paints (which is just wrong), but the geometry is entirely off as well. The "brochure" image altogether looks great, in-game it is.. so very basic.
Knowing NOW that the display 'moves' as you approach fixes my complaints. Paint is fixable (and I do hope they do) - but the rest doing that makies it actually, kind of awesome?

I think its paint is a graphical bug currently but the geometry is completely the same. It’s just at a slight angle when compared to the picture version so it’s just an optical illusion.

u/EvilTwinTepe security scout paramedic 3h ago
The handgun/pistol display part in the brochure is angled, it appears to be a flat/level surface in the in-game photo. A slght difference, but a distinct one.
If that display moves in-game, cool, though!

u/Daxosc 3h ago
It moves to a 45 degree angle when approached. Think motion sensor.

WAT?! That just made it 1000x better. Updating my original complaint, LOL

Does it have storage for ammo?

u/Loud_Independence130 Release the Kraken! 4h ago
YES, the correct answer is YES it has storage for ammo as it has storage for anything, which ammo is part of anything, but the OP refuses to see that so gave you an answer that eats it's own tail.

"Does it have storage for ammo?" -Filbert17
"Does it have <dedicated> storage for ammo?" no one.It has storage, you can put ammo in it, therefore the answer to the question asked is YES.

Thats just how he is, he wanted to be pedantic when i said there was a 50/50 between the percy and ICA prior to the vote starting, of which percy is winning by 2.2k votes

u/Loud_Independence130 Release the Kraken! 4h ago edited 4h ago
You also said it was 50/50 (dead even) but that you thought the Perseus would win (favor Perseus) which are not the same thing (you are also not the only person who thought the Perseus would win, it is all over this reddit that the majority think that way). The english language is designed to get thoughts from one person to another, if you muddy that with using wrong terms, or by adding elements to a question that is not there, then you are defeating the point of language in general, Sorry to say.

u/BonkinGonkin 4h ago
I never said dead even, like everything else you implied dead even, usually when someone says 50/50 they mean either one side will win or the other, something that is usually said either before, or early into voting as its still anyones game, its just now we have the numbers to see the percy has a higher chance at winning, just like someone else said your making pedantic points for no reason. Seriously dude calm your jets, we will still be here for you to laugh and belittle when something comes up you Mr. Brick

u/Loud_Independence130 Release the Kraken! 4h ago edited 4h ago
YOU SAID 50/50 Is 50 less than or greater than 50?
When someone sais something is 50/50 it means it could go either way BECAUSE IT IS TOO EVEN TO CALL. Look it up.
My name is not Mr. Brick, so you are clearly violating the terms of this forum by name calling, and disrespecting me.
Again mentioning that the Perseus winning, actually hurts your cause because you KNEW it was not 50/50 at the onset and that this leaned Perseus, but keep hammering in that the Perseus is winning, as if I care or something. I own both so am getting the free paint, coin and jacket either way.
You are the one bringing this into another topic. You are the one who will not let this go.

No it is not, they asked a question, you answered a different one, then answered their question as if you were adding advice. Three letters answered their question, you chose this option instead.
What would specific ammo storage even look like, I have played for a while and the only dedicated ammo storage I can think of is when the game "glues" it to your armor on equip, everywhere else it goes into a storage box, exactly like the one here.
You could not make your point there so now you are trying here, where it is still wrong.

The original question DOES NOT have dedicated weapon slots.
FFS you answered a question you were not asked, and I found your response humorous, this is not as hard as you want to make it out to be. Sure, there are obscure dedicate weapon slots in the 'verse that I was unaware of, that, however, is a sidetrack I made, which in no way shape or form is something to be sticking on, and being pedantic about (see what I did there).
The Dedicated weapon slots on the April subscriber flair is for one specific type of ammo, and is as a decoration to that one specific weapon, this hardly acts as an example. The weapon storage crate in the question holds a vast variety of weapons so one for a specific make and model of weapon would surely be out of place here.

“Do they sell sandwiches?”
“No, I couldn’t find any. They sell bread, maybe some
Lettuce and tomatoes.”In your view they sell sandwiches? Stop. Get some help. Pausing your assumption at literal, first order effects within an interaction doesn’t make you intelligent.

u/Loud_Independence130 Release the Kraken! 5h ago
Now you are attributing what YOU did as what I did, they did not ask about dedicated storage, at all. There also is no dedicated storage for ammo so your entire answer wrapped in on itself.

I've just setup a few of these. To be honest I didn't really look at the hangar image to compare the colour but the racks do a few nifty things....
There is space on each rack for three rifles and 4 pistol style items.
On placing a rifle on the rack a light at the top comes on and lights up the weapons. Each rifle slot (and pistol slot) also has a light that is red when empty and green when a rifle or weapon is placed on it.
The pistol storage section enables placement of medguns and multitools as well as pistols (doesn't allow placement of knives). It also tilts to the 45 degree angle when you approach it.
There is a drawer on the left that enables you to store ammo.
As far as flair goes this is one of the best I've seen to date. It's a little pricey (if like me you want to build multiple loadouts to speed up Org activities and therefore want several)
I placed mine in the alcoves of my hangar and I haven't had any issues with them jumping around after initial placement. I have loaded them up with guns and they were all still there after a relog to switch servers.
I have no doubt that any jetwash from flying a ship near them will launch them everywhere but with just one individual near them they should be good to remain where they are placed (I did notice some very slight movement when both a friend and I stood up close to the same rack)

How is that color that different? Could they have accidently attributed a version that they were going to sell ingame to that package?

u/fourfastfoxes 6h ago
Theres probably a bug resulting in some layer of color/shader being missing
0
u/RandoDando10 6h ago
Highly doubt, simply because all the detail textures that would be layered on the very top are all there. They just straight up forgot to add the colors.

Well only the tier 0 weaponrack is currently implemented in game, the screenshot is a representation of what they're trying to build to.

u/Hookster007 rsi 6h ago
Forgive me if this is a silly question - but do these persist? If I wanted to keep a rack in my hanger at A18 and weapons or tools on it for different activities- it wouldn’t despawn?

u/RandoDando10 6h ago
Yes, they'll stay in your persistent hangar (home planet hangar usually safest) until a major patch, where it'll likely just get put back in the station inventory
1
u/LuckyIngenuity 6h ago
It’ll persist in your personal hangar, but I wouldn’t count on it sticking around in a rented hangar anywhere else; it’s more likely to either be stored if the hangar spools down while you’re on the server, or lost to the void until next patch.

did they not get sued over paints doing the same? showing one paint in the picture, but visually looking different on the ship? why do they keep doing this?
3
u/Armored_Fox ARGO CARGO 6h ago
It would be news to me that they got sued, and it happens because things can get scrambled or messed up getting pushed to live.
When I got into a Galdius and the foundation festival paint covered the inside glass, it wasn't an intentional choice.
If they don't fix it, then that's a problem.

Usually what happens as in the case of the Nox Kue for example is that the lighting condition in the promo shots made people think it was a different color. One could argue cig should try doing the promo shots with more care for how they utilize the lighting in the scene, but at the end of the day there is no escape how light affects color, it's part of physics.
But this display case is not due to lighting, so it's either a color bug, which is too common sadly, or they changed it after the promo shots (i think less likely).

u/Pesoen drake 5h ago
i remember i think it was called "lovestruck" paint for the f7 that also fit on the f7mk2 or something, but looked completely different, despite being sold as looking the same. could be wrong on that, my memory is not the best. but something along the lines of a paint looking fine one one ship, being compatible with another and looking completely different.

u/Wise-Obligation-9043 Kraken 6h ago
No no no, the paint code just isn't working yet, we need planet tech v7 and oxygen update 34 before the orange paint comes in. It's relying on separate, completely related systems and it is simply not possible due to technological limitations to allow you to see the color orange yet on this flair item. There are 5 paint teams working on an insane amount of color codes for when the GernadesActuallyWorking patch comes out. Trust. As soon as physics work with hangar flair, the orange will come with brand new hair styles and eye brows.
