The arrastra is an announced ship… These sound like something new. I with the 2024 financials, the cash on hand, the major ship sale drive that seems to be generating record numbers, I am wondering if they are attempting to get enough cash on hand to pay back the investors if the 2026 release...

Thing is, I can see people purposefully adding additional injuries to a "body" just to ensure that the person wakes up in a more deteriorated state if this type of play is followed. In fact, you would be stupid not to, because it forces a person to either play in a handicapped state, or it...

The minute you take a person’s character and start making it perform worse because of deaths. Or take a person’s beloved character away from them because they hit a limit, means that people will stop seeing their characters as things to protect, but assets to throw away. Why make all the effort...

And that is the problem with the PTU and their testing methodologies. The PTU is not up long enough, nor are there enough people for them to find problems when the game is deployed at scale. Claiming "we didn't see this in PTU" means that they need to change their methodologies. The fact that...

does not look like it.

You may be correct, but I suspect they are going to be "bespoke" and that they won't have that much in the way of ammo. From another "it can deal the hits, but it can't take them" to mean it's also going to be a glass cannon. If this is the case, I am okay with the 2xS4, BUT, that's going to...

I was kinda thinking the same dang thing

Well, it's out... Light fighter. Looks very star wars inspired (prequel trilogy) I remember seeing someone post (maybe @Montoya ) an Archimedes with two big gatling guns on it as a "funny"....and yet, somehow, this is exactly what this kinda looks/feels like.

looks like another snub?

@Sky Captain In my experience, Test is not a family friendly place. To be frank, if my wife played SC at all, it would not be with Test. She has heard others over discord when I played and was extremely disturbed at the people who were making...female unfriendly references...and were talking...

Here is the thing. We didn't need massive heatsinks back in the days of the 286, or even the 486. We certainly didn't need liquid cooling back in the days of the pentium and Core architecture. Even a good chunk of metal would do. EACH of today's designs use smaller transistors and use lower...

I remember playing lots of games Tron, Moria (variant), and Frogger. Interestingly enough, each of these had different methods of loading. Cartridge, 5 1/4 floppy disc, and a cassette tape respectively. Best baseball game of the era though was Major League Baseball (pre coleco-vision)...

My normal alcohol consumption is about 1 drink a month. Beer, wine, or liquor. That said, I do use wine and other alcohols in my cooking quite a bit. For example, I put Madira in my tomato/meat pasta sauce. I use vinegar in my marinades, I use beer to boil brats or for liquid in a batter...

Long time homebrewer here Like many things, it can be both easy and hard. I would first look at Author Charlie Papazian...

Wait until people put Tonks on the flight decks of ships like the Liberator and Kraken...

Of course they are taking a step back, because the people they have hired recently and have been putting on ISC have been lampooned and maligned by tons of people. They make comments that a seasoned developed knows not to say, and push agendas on video that CIG doesn’t agree with, or knows the...

I remember them saying that ammo would be carried in storage crates and would be replenished by moving ammo into a dedicated reloading area, BUT This ship has no cargo area to carry extra ammo. It's also yet another thing they need to create and then update for all the ships out there. It's...

That's a good one.

Look, no matter what, there are enough of us that you can probably find someone that is willing to let you test drive a particular ship. That includes limited ships like the Idris, or even hard to get ships like the executive editions of the F8C and the 600i. I know that a number of people in...

Of the three books I have read of Andy Weir, this is number 2....but it's a far number 2 from the Martian. That said, it's VERY much ahead of Artemis, which I found...lacking. It was the second book of his I read and I almost wrote him off completely.
