The really stupid thing is they aren't just reinventing everyone else's wheel, but their own wheels as well.

One other thing I noticed in the planet tech segment. They are still building tech I was using for planets and terrain 15 years ago with better results. This was rendered January 2012.

I didn't see anything that says they've earned the money I've already spent, much less a reason to spend more.

It sounded more like a pitch meeting for initial funding than a progress report. Lots of "we want to do this." None of "this is done," or "this is ready to roll out."

I haven't spent a dime on my account since they blamed us for their lack of progress. We spent $35 on my wife's account, to finish out a chain. Nothing since, and nothing more unless/until they actually finish something, probably a bit more than that.

If we are talking about The Expanse, I want the Rocinate and a squad of Martian Marine Force Recon troopers.

CIG has been talking Pyro as coming soon for a while now. The only way the Starfarer works in this role is if a properly manned Starfarer is escorting fighters. So the "PVPers" will need to "git gud" and "hire escorts."

Oh, trust me, I get that. But the Liberator was pitched as being essential for Pyro. It calls into question if they are serious about releasing Pyro this year.

Pyro was supposed to be barren, mined out, environmentally very hazardous, and basically empty. They've apparently retconned some of that, because, I guess, they've needed to show something. But it is still supposed to have large distances between fuel stops and not supposed to be a pleasant...

That is not what they told us it was about. It was about inventory, and about persistence, and would even allow for multiple systems and unlimited people per server. It was the "Jesus patch" that would allow everything to work and let additional systems to be added 3 years ago with patch 4.0.

Oh, I'm not saying have only one database, though in this case, it appears to me, that the personal inventory and inventory of what gets strewn around and left behind, seems like the same thing. I'm saying they made a big deal of this being the job of SSOCS and how SSOCS was separated from the...

SSOCS. was supposed to move the database off the servers. That way it wasn't server dependent, like your inventory, and was supposed to be the key to full persistence. As soon as everything was moved to SSOCS we were there. (And almost everything was supposed to be there more than a year ago...

They actually extended the range of the small ships in Stanton. It originally took multiple stops to get across Stanton.

I've been seriously considering range for some time. For the longest time we (my wife and I) limited ourselves to one small ship each. There is a reason I have a Liberator for our fleet. With the Liberator we currently have 5 small ships (and 2 Dragonflies) and one of the small ships is...

The Vanguard is supposed to be multi-system capable. The Retaliator is implied to be. The Quantum fuel capacity clearly needs work and some differentiation. I do expect the small ships to lose some range but not much. The ships with medium drives to gain range and ships with large drives to...

Well you have to move those stealth ships somehow.

The Sentinel is supposed to have "EMP Charges," whatever that means.

The hell with stealth. Use your MSR as a "go fast boat" and be gone before anyone knows you were there. The freighters aren't meant to fight, mostly, and they are too big to hide. Keep your speed up and do some distance.

I had one but melted it when I got my Scoundrel pack. Sorry, buy back not allowed, so I can't get it to you.
