I try to have 4-5 such things happen before breakfast each morning and find this invigorating. Also, I like Zaphod's claim that "I get stranger things than you in my breakfast cereal."

I don't think the Hull C can land on a planet when fully laden, nor load cargo while on the ground, because the cargo itself gets in the way of the landing. But the Hull C is depicted in its original art as sitting on a surface, so at least empty, it should be able to land. The statement that...

If you really want to haul cargo, I think when you see what you get with the Hull C, you'll forget the Cat. Did you know there was a statement about a year ago that these large, external cargo carrying ships can carry missile pods in place of cargo pods? I'm sure to work it would need to be...

Cheap Chinese crap.

Are you seeing better accelerations and speed when you're empty? I always wondered whether the extra engines give a boost when you don't have the mass of cargo.

I'd like to know more about this. Marc said the objective was to kill the escorts, not the Starfarer, so can you catch us up on this? What were the escorts and pirate ships? Was there ever a time where three or more pirates were attacking the Stafarer and had null results? I'm just thinking...

Wait, what, woah! Really?!!! I had no idea this was available! From the data in the camera SC knows how to paint the cockpit?!! That is really astonishing to me. And the Vanguard, yeah. . .so what do you have in the S4 gimbal and with the tracking and gimbal assist, what is that liike to...

I think it depends upon how evil you are willing to play. I am not willing to play really evil. I'm actually the good guy type, who dabbles in a little gray area from time to time. However, if you want to play really black, dark side, nasty and full-on EVIL!!!, then why bother with ninja...

I dunno. Whenever I use the quote button, I edit out empty lines and such, so maybe I somehow quoted someone quoting you, and edited out the quote note for you? Can I make it up to you? I will give you free pirate zombies if they pass the float test. If they float, they are made of wood so...

So the rest of the whole dead-people-walking-around bit made sense did it? No joke, I have a couple times met people who were making real life decisions of where to live, based upon a zombie apocalypse survival strategy, and I couldn't help but wonder what drugs they were using. I had to...

Wasn't the whole notion of fast Zombies from the development of the Resident Evil games and movies? I don't recall fast zombies before RE, and in RE1, none of the humanoid zombies are fast. I don't think they come until about RE3? What of course this means is the pirate zombies of Pirates of...

Yeah. I think if you know you want M radar, then you have 3 good choices. The Vanguards are the fastest and can outrun many ships. They're also the best armed of the three. The Terrapin is the stealthiest, and lets face it, that is a huge advantage. Given a choice out in the black alone...

KIRK RULES!!! Didn't you know? Hey, you guys have your flight systems talking back to you, and haven't made a comedy sketch up yet? Why are we not seeing, hearing and rolling on the floor? You can get docked a drink that way, or have to buy a round for the house. Now get on it!

Don't be so hard on yourself! You're supporting game development, and since you purchased the most expensive of the birds with M scan , you can fly all of them in turn. Add the Cutty and Mercury Starunner to the list and check them out. Take notes and see what you like. That's what Alpha is...

1) What exactly is this "cutting-edge modularity" CIG speaks of in the 600i and what tangible benefit will this have? The 600i can swap out the luxury suite for an exploration package, but it's not a BUK. You buy one or the other ship. 2) What is the benefit of having two scanners on the...

That's very kind of you to say, but I am way too busy with other things to write, and I'm not really as expert as it may seem. If you want to study post-modernism, I suggest watch a few YouTube vids of Steven Hicks and Jordan Peterson. They're both quite good though Peterson gets drawn off...

If I may play philosopher for a moment (my trained profession), the reason journalism has changed from pretending objectivity and actually seeking it, to pretending objectivity and completely abandoning it, is the rise of the Post-Modernist world view. When you deny the very nature of objective...

What he said. I think for VR to be a compelling option for SC, you would need to be able to map your sim pit into the illusion, so that when you look down you see your hands on sticks or whatever controls you're using. I'm not holding my breath for that, though who knows what will be a decade...

That's a perfect opportunity to test out the Vanguard sporting the S5 Absolution Distortion Cannon. It fires a spray of pellets and not many of them would need to hit a Bucky to knock it senseless. I'd love to see a vid of that, and to find out what happens with the Bucky after you catch your...

. . .though it's more like 2 months from now, given it will likely be the end of June. What are you looking forward to? Myself, I am waiting breathlessly for the Bounty Hunting dynamic to come into its own, and for the Vanguard Sentinel and Harbinger. I'm very interested to see how the...
