Installed my patches. Prepared my VR Glasses. Ran into deprecated servers. Crashed repeatedly. Gave up.
I hope I'll have more luck this weekend... :thump:

Pulled out my Quest 3, installed & launched Steam Link, Launched the game, pressed /, then immediately shit my pants at the scale of everything. Tobii is cool and all, but it doesn't have a goddamn thing on VR. The HOLOGRAMS! JFC the F'in HOLOGRAMS! They look so good! The Fire! The fire as my corpse is consumed in the cockpit is glorious! WITNESS MEEEE!!!

Really? Is it really that good? I might have to "invest" in a pair of those or something similar...

WIsh my quest 2 still worked... USB port got busted and it's probably dead by now as it hasn't been charged in a year.

TBH I haven't experienced any of the engineering stuff yet. The few times I got into pve combat, I wasn't hit enough to cause damage, or I got obliterated in a nanosecond and there was nothing left to engeneeer (most likely I got crashed into).
What really bothers me is that on even smaller ships like the cutty you get an engineering console, on my spirit I don't, so I can't lock open the doors that always take ages to open.

I've done a short round of mining in my Golem, I do like the new lower yield but higher payouts. Instead of 8 hours refining it took only 1.5 with same method, and I could fit more value into a trip.
Haven't seen a fire yet, but already bought a fire ext. for my hangar. The empty slots on the walls really bothered me.
Not sure I like the damage change stuff yet, taking out simple ships like those prospector looking ships above OLPs are a real pain. They soak up damage like I'm playing borderlands...
Vulkan is real good, I got decent performance even though I upgraded from a 1080 monitor to 4k, although it feels like perf degrades a lot over time so I have to restart the game. Haven't had a single crash yet.
So far so good, I hope it holds out over the holiday break.
