    The Acolyte

    I haven’t checked today but I have never really concerned myself with this. Most critics are ideologically possessed. Tomatoes routinely savages or worships works based upon political leaning. What matters is the public, and when the public and critics disagree, seems history tells us the...

    The Acolyte

    Raven, my position is in the first post atop this thread. The main point behind this series is to “break” George Lucas’ vision of SW and replace it with something else. My objections are: 1) All source material deserves respect. Following creators do not have a right to destroy or otherwise...

    The Acolyte

    Well as you said, you didn’t read the objections top of this thread so of course you’re confused. I don’t think there is a cure for ignorance and confusion apart from understanding. If you don’t want to understand, surely you will not. All of my observations obtain. They’re valid, and...

    You think that’s bad, back in the day, I owned an MGB. That had a 12V electrical system with all the lights on the left side on one circuit and all on the right on another. It had two 6V batteries in series, one under each front seat and two carburetors that needed to be vacuum tuned to each...

    I’ve been following these kinds of personal flight solutions for half century. Growing up outside NYC, where several millions commute each work day into the Big Apple, and as a part of the transit industry, I’ve always seen the use case for wealthy execs who take a train and therefore have about...

    The Storm AA

    Its frustrating right now trying to identify specific advantages since even the vehicles we have, have stats that could change. There are a few advantages though, that we can expect will endure into and past Beta. Deckspace matters. Ships and vehicles with a smaller footprint will always have...

    The Acolyte

    The reviews are the most brutal I’ve ever seen. Apart from all the ideological nonsense, people are saying the acting, dialog, presentation in general is just bad. Even sources sympathetic with The Message, are claiming its terrible. I’m surprised about this. The general outline of the plot...

    The Acolyte

    So I turned on Star Wars Theory to get their take on Acolyte, just in time to watch thirty seconds of Lesley Headlund telling the main protagonist actress seated with her, that C3P0 is gay, and R2D2 is lesbian. She said it twice. Then the Star Wars Theory host said “no. . .no. . .no. . .” for...

    The Storm AA

    Great question. In almost every instance to date, CIG has chosen to pressure players to work together. So probably when the Sentinel gets its EW suite, you’ll need to be in back to use it. The only exception I can think of is slaving the aux guns on the Cutty to the pilot. I think CIG felt they...

    The Storm AA

    Pretty insightful vid, and fun to watch. Some great video here. My take away is that once the glitches are out of both the bombers and the Storms, CIG will have given us ample reasons to prefer a Combined Arms policy, meaning: you’ll want to combine nearly every kind of arms in order for them to...

    The Acolyte

    I think there are cases where Star Trek succeeds and where it fails, mostly based upon the skill of the storytellers involved. It’s generally a high quality product closely monitored for success, and it’s successful. Complaints about Star Wars fails are based primarily around the philosophical...

    The Acolyte

    While I appreciate Naff taking me seriously, I don’t think I need help defending myself from bullies. I’m simply remarking this behavior has happened not once nor twice, but is a pattern that follows again and again, that certain people harass others here in the forum with whom they disagree...

    Just like I said.

    The Acolyte

    I couldn’t help but notice you guys proving my point, that “Most absorb thoughts from around them without two minutes reflection, based upon how a notion makes them feel.” Two posts with no recognition of the thread’s intent nor knowledge of its content, responding to a completely...

    The Acolyte

    . . .debuts this coming week. This in mind I thought I’d reiterate what I believe is the proper response to this perverted project of the Star Wars franchise. There are many observations to make about the radical feminist underpinnings of this new series. I think these are all very secondary...

    Origin 400i + X1 = 💥

    You got that right. All the stats are meaningless until all the stats are in. Right now most of the components have the same stats, regardless of class and purpose. Stealth isn’t really implemented in the way it will be and none of the EM warfare stuff is active. Rumors about replacing engines...

    Origin 400i + X1 = 💥

    I’ve always thought the 400i the best laid out luxury interior to date. Given my preference for function over form, I prefer the Corsair interior despite I hate Drake. The Corsair feels lived in, though it flies like a garbage scow. I would never choose a shit flying ship for home. For a...

    Ironclad

    I think the vid said the graphic showed four tones but five would fit. So odds are you could put three Ballista and three to four Nursa in there. If you keep a Nursa alongside each Ballista, you can use the latter to store gear for respawn. I would not plan to respawn on Nursas in the Ironclad...
