    The Lazerbeam Foundation ship buying extravaganza!

    This is true. There was that whole pay to win argument a while back. They did say that the LTI thing would be a very minor thing and that the insurance payments would be very minimal. However, I think this is only going to be the case at the beginning. Just look at the usual economy issue...

    Dreams vs. Reality

    I don't think that's the best case scenario at all. It starts out with "hell yea!" and ends with "wait, what?". I actually like my wife. She puts up with my never ending shenanigans...

    The Lazerbeam Foundation ship buying extravaganza!

    This is what I was thinking. There are both the inevitable citizen con sale in October (new concept ships maybe), and then of course the anniversary sale in November when most of the ships should be on sale. Between the two, almost every ship should be on sale and possibly a few we haven't...

    Prepping for Star Citizen-What I need to know

    You may want to consider carefully the HOTAS. I was using a X52 HOTAS until recently when I picked up a pair of T16000. It really felt much more intuitive than the HOTAS. It's difficult to describe. It just makes sense as a setup. In any controller (xbox controller, joystick, hotas, etc.)...

    Steam is allow refund for NMS, No matter how many hours

    This, absolutely this. It amazes me that CIG couldn't have had any better timing with their 3.0 demo. It finally brought together all the different elements that they have been talking about. It showed, for the first time, the cohesive experience that everyone previously could only imagine...

    Lets Talk About Guild/Squadron Member Cap !!

    With CIG allowing for simultaneous membership in 10 different orgs, it seems to me that they expect to have some massive orgs in the game. It allows players to be part of both mega-organizations and smaller, more single purpose organizations. This may birth even larger organizations than Test...

    Steam is allow refund for NMS, No matter how many hours

    That's what I ended up doing. I put in a ticket this morning and will keep trying until it is successful. However, I suspect there is already an internal policy regarding return requests on No Man's Sky. With all the drama, I would bet that Steam has had a hundred thousand or more return...

    Aces High

    Here's one of my more recent discoveries. The video is actually pretty good too. View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jv1ZN8c4_Gs

    Aces High

    Outstanding! Test Squadron dogfighting mix, GO! Here is my obligatory contribution for all us original gamers. It was all about listening to this on my walkman while playing After Burner at the arcade. I miss arcades so much... View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=siwpn14IE7E

    Steam is allow refund for NMS, No matter how many hours

    It wouldn't surprise me if a tech savvy lawyer picks this one up on a class action lawsuit. There is such a huge difference between advertised and existing content. If there are widespread difficulties with refunds, I can see this one going to court.

    Dreams vs. Reality

    I think it's a good thing to have this out now before things are permanent. It's irritating, but continue to be vocal about it. This way, CIG can see how much potential the game has for non-stop griefing and how ineffective their measures are. I sincerely hope they take action. Griefing...

    TEST SQUADRON - BEST SQUADRON! Hi TEST! Great to be here!

    Welcome to Test! I see your steak and raise you one steak. I discovered sous vide and it forever changed steak for me. We can't order steak from restaurants any more because the home version is just so much better.

    Terrapin Human-Guided-Anti-Frigate Missile, ZombieXII, armed!

    Welcome to Test! You may be interested in my video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PwfT1C8XVCg). It has my latest purchase that fulfills both those categories.

    So I finally broke down and tried dual sticks

    I second that. Those are the same exact ones that I am using. If your impressions of joysticks are based on a cyborg, you will love these things. I bought two of them because they can be changed to a left hand stick. So I could get a matched set of sticks. They are not the most ergonomic...

    RSI Polaris

    If you think about it though, it's only going to be roughly the size of the Carrack at 120m(maybe less if the 25% increase in carrack size comment was real). If the Carrack is only $350, than it shouldn't be too much more.

    Question about age restrictions?

    Actually, quite a few of the states allow for underage consumption if they are "in a private, non alcohol selling premise, with parental consent". So basically, you can get your kids drunk at home in most states.

    So I finally broke down and tried dual sticks

    LOL! I have run that same lecture many times myself. Form follows function but was discarded with reckless abandon for that movie. Hence the roof scoop used as a cosmetic accessory (venting absolutely nothing). It may have made sense if they pulled the AC for a few additional HP and shaved a...

    So I finally broke down and tried dual sticks

    Yes! I need the most obnoxious color to paint my ship with. Then I need air scoops everywhere, even on the roof where it makes no freaking sense! Last, I need some meaningless vinyl graphics like a hand pointing forward and I'm set! On a more serious note though, on the HOTAS, whenever I...

    Terrible Terrapin

    You may have a really good point there. Wing Commander the movie had a similar concept. Going through uncharted jump points was dangerous. Chris Roberts both wrote and directed that movie so it wouldn't surprise me at all to see this added to the long list of ideas that are shockingly similar...
