Yep, that's exactly what S3 does.

The usual malware-peddlers will be all over this 'stargur' thing like flies on poo poo if it's half as badly put together as, let's face it, it will be.

Just sit back, wait for the inevitable Reddit meltdown, and blaming of "Smart's goon army" for...doing gently caress all but watching & laughing!

I was looking for the right chumming image. :colbert:

I didn't want the jaws scene, or someone in a bikini posing with a bucket of chum. I want the mid-air chum trail. I want the extended arm. I want the act of chumming.

So... they made millions selling ship jpegs and will probably get some more with fps-module related (guns, vehicles, armor, skins ?). Anyone think they'll sell the deed to planets? Space Stations, or even, local space in space stations "Tired of your space pirate life? Buy your very own pub in Polaris-IV ! Become a bartender for your fellow citizens" ?

Ingredients

Ground Pilchard fish or bait fish
Anchovy Oil
Bread
Fine Beach Sand

Supplies

Bucket
Stirring implement
Scoop cup

Method

Mullet fish make great bait and can only be caught with cast nets. To get the mullet in casting range, throw these Mad Mullet sand balls in the water. When the balls hit the water the sand makes an irresistible cloud in the water and the resulting oil slick stays on the surface.

Mush up all ingredients except sand, then add sand until the mixture can be formed into a ball. Add some water if too dry.

I'm genuinely surprised they haven't done that yet, to be quite honest. Maybe even they realised creating a system for things to do when you're burned out on the main game is a bad idea when there's no main game to be burned out on.

The level design is poo poo and something out of early 2000's. Online hallway shooters are garbage tier fps.

The art is ok though.

Everything other than the Ender's Game arena is dull as gently caress. The art is technically proficient, but grimy industrial hallways are a dime a dozen and you have to work real hard to make that kind of environment stand out (see Alien Isolation for a good example on how to make it work).

EDIT: also apparently it's impossible to properly light an industrial facility in the far-flung space future. hope you like tripping over poo poo in your barely powered space station!

Woo hoo! My refund is "actioned", and actioned against traded ships no less.

Not sure if this is a thing anyone else has had luck with yet or not, but I waited a week after our last communication before I brought up the traded ship issue myself. I basically just pointed out how much their flexible store credit/melting/trading functions made it pretty ridiculous to not offer refunds against credit still on the account, especially since they initially were allowing the grey market stuff to happen on their own forums... It may have also helped that the single ship I still had was an exact match for the original transaction that I was requesting the refund on, who knows. Anyway this post probably identifies me as having :tinfoil: dangerous GOON influences :tinfoil: so we'll see if I actually get my money, in 5 to 10 working days.

This is the great thing we don't have to do anything as the entire SC trainwreck will destroy itself without any outside interference. The only person who bothered writing a script was a retarded redditor not realising his script could be exploited simply by posting links in this thread.

The badly configured S3 instance will probably lead to a hilarious invoice for bandwidth through normal use. I'd feel sorry for the guy if he wasn't such a prick.

I have no idea if they're the same person or not, I just thought it was hilarious that Karl_Ramsmeier or whoever they are in the SC community thinks it's a good idea to proudly and publicly threaten dsmart's kids by threatening to release info about them from dsmart's parental petition.

This right after the thread got done saying shame on you Derek for name-and-shaming some dumb rear end in a top hat with muscular dystrophy.
