Congratulatons Mr and Mrs @Printimus!!! Now we have no excuse not to drink a beer tonight!

Well then. I think we could say TEST members have expressed a relatively healthy outlook on the issue here at least. It's kind of sad that others don't get it, and get all bent out of shape - but it is what it is. But... you don't want @NaffNaffBobFace to hold your beer for long @Bambooza. He...

Ok good stuff, I wasnt sure. :slight_smile: Those ARE good questions to ask though, and I think more people should do a little introspection about why they're spending money on ships now, considering there will be a (grindy) game mechanic to do the same thing. If it's just "Oh yeah, that is a...

I totally agree @Radegast74 . I'm just not sure what @Firen is really objecting to.

I am not sure I understand the objection. This is common sense to me. If you bought a multi-crew ship that you cannot fly because you cannot afford maintenance/crew/fuel/operational costs, how is that CIG's issue? I mean if you don't have enough friends to crew a ship you bought, you might...

You raise some very good points by the way, that others are prone to ignore, though they shouldn't. I just wanted to expand on the two points above. In the first case, someone who gave CIG $500 for a ship, and can't play it when someone with a base package plays 12 hours a day shouldn't...

Oh dang! Thank you, that saves my life. well ok not my life but it makes it a whole lot easier.

Welcome to TEST @armyfreak, from, well not quite Houston but the general area. I speak kind of funny for a Texan though, I'm only Texan by marriage. I'm really a Canadian eh. But my mother was an American, and my wife is from Texas. For what it's worth, my first trip to Texas was interesting...

So thank you, I was feeling a little overly sensitive because I have a B.Th (a Bachelor's in Theology), as well as a B.Sc. (BS in the US... idk that's what the call it). Anyway, the philosophical issue is something we basically agree on. It's not just memories, even from a scientific...

Don't kid yourself, it was all beer-fu. Welcome to TEST @Arcturos !!!

The Hawaiian islands volcano's are a vastly different sort of volcano, unlikely to do Vesuvius or Mt St. Helen's Stratovolcano style eruptions. Those volcanos are caused by cracks and faults formed by enormous pressure caused by movement at the edge of a tectonic plate. They look like zits but...

Yes. there are some geological features underwater, to the South South-East of the current fissures that indicates this is exactly what this volcano does, from time to time. It's unlikely this time, but it depends on how the eruption develops this time around. The geological features consist...

So, this I like. But SC offers something a lot of other games don't offer. That is it's a sandbox, so we can do a lot of things that aren't scripted, build our own game inside the game, and even have entire storylines that CIG hasn't thought of before. A game like that I could, and have...

Well then, Welcome to TEST @Yrden!!

I could describe the mechanic, but it would be a fairly long book. The thing is, the way meshing zones works is via a shared dataset. Anything that happens on one server, also happens simultaneously on every server that represents the same zone. If Player A buys the plot of land, that plot of...

In Science Fiction there is a mechanic, and in real life there is a potential mechanic, whereby you can actually achieve something approaching immortality. The process involves digitizing the mind, and transferring it to a clone upon your death. You would back up your mind, so to speak to a...

Congratulations you guys. He's gonna pick up a shoe in two years, and drive it like it's an Aurora.

You can do a free to play model, with subscriptions for perks. The perks could be anything, I have no issues. Whatever makes this game successful in the long run. I'm a subscriber now anyway, and I've always taken the position that money I am spending now, including buying ships is to support...

Other than it's the game's funding model, yeah. I mean they could sell ship coughcough er... better weapons, or cool rides or something or other, or use a subscription model. Either way works apparently, and apparently I don't mind either way. I pay Activision Blizzard enough already though.

I say 5 out of 7 too, but excellent approach vector, including what looks like a belly rub at the beginning. don't think he actually land the ship on it's feet though. It looks like the gear is still up. He needs a more dramatic final resting angle though, or more smoke and stuff.
