I still really like the concept of having a dude on the ship who has the job of driving a space bulldozer around to sweep broken ships into space rather than sweeping them back into the hangar. Dear. Mr. and Mrs. tragic token black female love interest. We regret to inform you that your daughter died in service of the plot. We would return her body but you see she crashed just outside of the door so we had no choice but to order the bulldozer guy to drive out there and push her corpse into space. We're not actually sure she was dead! So there could be hope that she's still alive and you will see her again. Not a lot because if she was still alive she probably would have died of her wounds or just running out of oxygen a few hours later. LOl but anyways listen to me rant sorry for your loss remember to buy war bonds. Sincerely, - Dusty Lens fucked around with this message at 23:13 on Dec 8, 2015 |

Justin Tyme posted:lol wait were there really people arguing that things instantly cool down in space because the ambient temperature is near absolute 0? Well yeah. Heat transfer is the only thing that's faster than light — didn't you know this? Especially in an environment where it's difficult to even define temperature other than as a point of thermodynamic equilibrium. This is SC, where new science is invented every day for a glorious future! Dusty Lens posted:
That's not entirely true. The part where ships fly off into space and “dip” off the deck like carrier-launched aircraft makes it worth it too.

It's clear from your post and your responses that all you are seeking is attention. You're upset and attempting to start a conversation with the sole purpose of giving yourself a platform to whine, cry, and scream like a child because you feel entitled to something you're not getting. Oh. And you're not entitled to a refund.

CrazyLoon posted:Challenge: How was the original Judge Dredd movie this? Oooh. Dredd — an old hand in the game — once again has to go out to fight an ever more dangerous and enemy, but finds support from home to be drying up and the own leadership to be perhaps the biggest threat. In spite of some early success, friends and companions go missing left and right, and a dangerous order ultimately sends him and his old-time mentor to the Also, something about unreliable machinery that has to be bashed back into order.

Breaking news https://www.reddit.com/user/Kurt_M (deleted) Leaving Reddit...friends can still find me at the official forum (self.starcitizen) submitted 3 hours ago by [deleted] After a quite big discussion that I had here, and some pondering, I've decided to stop posting and reading comments here, and instead merely visit Reddit as a source of news. It's not like I'm childish enough as to leave just because of one bad discussion, but in the middle of it I read something that made me think quite a bit: "The Karma system can lend itself easily to groupthink ... it's a fundamental human need to have the approval of your peers". I totally agree with that, and I admit that I'm culprit of watching more the karma points than I'd like. So, until that system is removed (something that has been asked quite a few times), I won't be posting here again, except very occasionally. I plan to be more active on the official forums now, so you'll find me there. Cheers to all! e: this might be old news

Let me get this straight... You are leaving us. You are attempting to pull funding from the game we wish made. You are stirring up @#$% on the forum by proclaiming your intent to do so. And, then you are asking for assistance/interaction from the community that you are attempting leave? Why would any of us care, and how many others who are bailing even bother to read these forums anymore? Are you sure you are not just trolling for attention? OK, fine. "Golly, dude. That is tragic." Now go away already.

And yes, it's the other old hand that goes missing, as do a few other u-boats, iirc. I don't remember if anyone dies during the first attempt at Gibraltar, but someone gets shot up at least. Now I have to re-watch Das Boot just because of that.

Well, the average outsider's opinion of gamer goons is entirely based off those who play EVE. You see a goon play DOTA? Yap...automatically must be an EVE goon, that's why it's okay to poo poo all over any goon in advance in any game you encounter them. 2 years back, when I tried to present myself as one of the faces of piracy in the brown sea of CIG forums (and when I still thought this whole thing was something other than CR and Sandi's ticket back to Hollywood), I pretty much went through similar proceeds when SC's white knights equated and lumped me right alongside self-proclaimed pirates like Shankerz and Seraph regularly. So needless to say, I very quickly got why this kind of analysis gets tedious in its base inaccuracy. So while I can't attest as to how accurate that analysis is for EVE goons, I have to say that in the 2 years I've looked at SA from the outside and the 3 months I've posted here...nah, it's still mainly uninformed horseshit.

I'm guessing that this isn't exactly improved by the large presence of EVE refugees over at SC, many of which have fled there to get away from the “griefing” (actually just PvP) that the EVE goons quickly became the postercritters of.

Given that in 2013-2014 one of the most prominent CIG mods was confirmed through e-detective work to have lost all his poo poo in EVE, and hence was the reason why he probated an utterly well-spoken and polite goon for a week under false pretense and tried to pick a war with Starfleet Dental...weeeeellll.... And yea. The old PACT white knight coalition (lol...dunno if those saps even still exist) even existed to begin with, started from Blue Horizon's guild leader, who was a refugee from EVE and really started it to preempt goons coming over. Plus that Tannhouser dipshit with SUN, who named a fictional manuever after himself and was also on the record for hating goon guts for Burn Jita.
