RSI Hermes is out!

Mudhawk said:

Considering that a lot of our people seem to be attracted to Star Citizen because they played the original Wing Commander, or at least Freelancer, chances are that most of our crew are well past their teens.
Actually I am old enough to consider preparing a coffin that looks like one of them Cryopods. Just to rub it in the face of my heirs where all the money went that they won't get their greedy hands on.
Mua-ha-ha-ha..!

There's a lot that aren't too. Not many are here, most of them are just in in Discord.

also @Richard Bong ... and you know what's funny: I played Wing Commander back in the day, several versions, and also watched the movie when it was released and since. Most recently was last year. I loved it, but I don't remember a thing about them. I'd have to be promoted before I could recall the memory of anything that old.

The Hermes would be an excellent daily driver for all of us Jonny Quests out there.

Man, seeing something like that makes me feel young again.
Mostly because it makes YOU look way older than me.
Thanks for that ..

Simple.
Wing Commander, as a game series, chronicles the epic story of my Alter Ego Joshua "Howling Wolf" Mudjekeewis (*) as he and his trusty crew battle the evil Kilrathi to protect mankind and ultimately end a war that was forced onto us without any fault on mankind's part.
And then we eradicated the Kilrathi homeworld.
It was self-defence.
Probably.

PS: First time getting the option to name a character in a game. Obviously I'd overdo it...

The movie was obviously intended for a young audience but for what it is, it is quite good. I enjoyed it twice.

We were exploring movies that influenced Star Citizen last year in Discord. I mean right back to 1911 until pretty much current. It was a hellalota fun.

Well, watching the physics go haywire all the time it seems like CIG is still heavily influenced by the works of Georges Mélière.

I Actually upgraded my argo to the Hermes.. and i do love that thing!

As a lot of you know, I have not been in the habit of giving CIG any of our monies ever since the beef with one of the dumbass community managers who instead of talking to Sandi about her and CitizenMom's arrangement/relationship decided to cause some trouble and talk shit before getting fired back in 2015ish. Not to mention all that money they got from my S corp I ran back in 2012-2013 under our previous commercial relationship, arrangement.


However, this one was too good to pass up if you ask me the moment I saw the paint job. Got a couple for me and the fam. Gunnar is getting the hang of the T. Beam on the track and makes quick work of the cargo. Decent grid.

Feel free to share any Erkul loadouts. Just threw in whatever Class A components I had on there and pulled off the stock guns.

She does looks great in yellow.

To be honest when they started spending hundreds of thousands on set dressing the HQ to make it look like a connie - I knew I was correct in pulling my own funding some years ago. I originally funded the games initial development, not their ever increasing egos.
