You don't need no stinkin' Hyperloop or Metroloop ... all you need is a ground vehicle!

On my way back from the bar, I noticed a set of elevators that said "To Surface" ... I wondered, could I just drive from the city to the spaceport? Going up the elevatr, I found the Vehicle kiosk, called up my Ursa, donned my new suit, and I was on my way!

Thankfully, after running into a lightpost in the dark (c'mon CIG, the glare is horrific) I just drove for about 5 min, went to where the hyperloop meets NB, and there was the garage!

I decided to take a photo outside, to celebrate:

...and in the time it took to pose, started getting covered in snow! I look like an orange creamsicle here....mmmmm....orange creamsicle....mmmmm:
Made it to NB iii.jpg

I went inside before parking my vehicle...I think this rates a "No shit, Sherlock":
Made it to NB iv.jpg

Back outside, I drove my rover inside to the garage (after requesting "landing" ... I don't want to go to prison!) and look! the snow is gone!
Made it to NB v.jpg

Ok, now I'm reading to put my civvies back on and go to the bar...wait a minute...the bar is back at The Commons! Dammit!

Overall, this patch has a LOT of nice improvements, on top of MicroTech! Very nice!

It's a damn beautiful patch eh? I spent a few hours IVO Microtech. Blew my mind. I can't wait to explore the rest of the system now.

I was TESTing the weather environment around MT briefly earlier when I thought of something that made me lol at myself. I'm so glad that it's a good thing that in the future time period of the Verse that the petty racial divisions seem to be done with, because I've met some in RL that would claim that the environment around MT is racist because if you stand around outside long enough it'll either turn you white or kill you regardless of your skin's complexion color.

This being said, after going around NB several times, I haven't found an armor shop anywhere other than the single set for FPS mining. Has anybody else found that shop yet? I get the feeling that I might have completely looked right past it.
