Could there be anything more immersive than the tense moments where you're hiding inside of a crate in a derelict ship waiting for a nearby scavenger crew to pick you up so you can sneak aboard their ship but you also really need to poo poo?

I wonder how this could be handled in gameplay? Maybe have a "constipation" modifier that slows your character down?

Xenology is an unnatural mixture of science fiction and formal logic. At its core is a flawed assumption...

that an alien race would be psychologically human.

The uninstaller is the only part of the game that works. Once you uninstall, you can clean leftover folders in these locations:

C:\Program Files\Cloud Imperium Games (just toast the whole folder)
%localappdata%\Star Citizen (same as above)

That should do the trick.

I read that a few people had trouble uninstalling it, but maybe they hosed up their game folders in some way.

I can say I'm glad they are taking their time, because I remember Freelancer, and believe Chris has learned a lot from that experience.

[edit] Also, and I know what this place is for, but I really hate it when people poo poo talk about Sandi. She's one of the nicest people I've ever corresponded with. Some comments just really turn my stomach, or yeah, I would spend more time here.

On point one, Chris may have learned something from Freelancer, but some very bad habits have resurfaced.

On point two, Sandi may have been nice to me as well, but I'm not concerned about her treatment of me, or large/public backers in general. I'm concerned about her treatment of employees, which by several reports is disgustingly abysmal.

I like the taste of most rums and also gin. It's usually the gin part of a gin and tonic that makes it pleasant. Spiced rum is also good for spiking a warm apple cider and I'd rather have that than real cider.

I've tried a few cheap whiskeys and I wasn't really sold on having them straight so I only used them in sours and hot toddies. I feel like an expensive whiskey would be a waste on my palate.




These were my horrible alcohol opinions. I'm more of a tea person.

If Beer's emails are truly fabricated, then why don't CIG at the very least make a public statement stating that they are fake? Or better still, why don't they sue? It would be an open and shut case.

Oh yes, I remember now: It's because they are in fact very real.

At some point you need to apply Occams Razor. Either this is a giant conspiracy and all of the rumblings about Sandi being a tyrant are false or she doesn't behave the same way towards everyone else as she does to you. I'm not going to tell you to gently caress yourself or get out but there is mounting piles of bad stacking up. Bootcha (as I suspect you know) was a pre-KS investor and wouldn't have pulled his investment nor said the things he has just to earn internet points.

prostitutes are not just nice they also go out of their way as long as they are get paid.
