Hello Commandos
I once had a light gun game for the playstation and me and my buddies stood a safe distance from the light gun and looked at each other with a nervous respect for each other and an understanding that war solves nothing.
20 years later we are still stood here, the cease fire continues, the light gun remains untouched.

Judging by the reams and reams of words he writes about it I think B'Tak is sexually aroused by the thought of jpegs in danger. It's not the strangest fantasy in the verse by a long shot

My best guess is that this will be the most vanilla, non-committal 10FTC we've seen yet. I think with last time's Star Marine fallout, Chairgate, Donutgate, etc. and that we know for a fact CIG is tracking what we say in this thread - eventually even someone like Chris will get it through his skull that he needs to keep a low profile for a while. We're gonna get questions and answers about things like clothes, a new wave of ships, something about mining, etc. - all the usual bullshit attempting to "flesh out" game systems that don't exist in any form, never have, and likely never will.

they have nothing to reveal. i'd err more on the side of a stealth cut or rollback. as scruffpuff says, they're reaping the PR fruits of loving with people's spaceships, and reading this thread.

that said, if any nightmare was going to get more hectic, i'm betting that it's the complete and total debacle that is CIG's star citizen, so who knows! i have expected ongoing disappointment from them and they have surpassed all expectations

I hope this weeks 10ftc is just a short video of CR getting on a plane for a non-extradition country. Before he steps on to the plane he turns around and mouths "LOL" to his legions of nerds.

We had to change development since the GOONS wanted the game out in 2016.

Sorry guys, but you can still use your ship as a background jpeg for an additional $37 dollars (REG $49.99) for a limited time.

Im looking for a bento box, it cant be pinku (thats japanese for pink) or any girl color. It has to be of 2 or more kotoba (thats japanese for 2 compartments) and has be be chibi (small) sized. And has to be really kawaii (cute). Also It has to be about 10-20 bux. And you have to post pics of it first (i want to make shure it's kawaii [cute]). And it would be nice if it came with matching chopstick holder (WITH chopsticks). OH! and it CANNOT have any cartoon pictures, or be made out of plastic. It has to be made of ceramic, or something like that. Also it would be nice if it was made in japan. and not in china or corea (korea) or whatever. I have found a bento box similar to the one im describing in e-bay, but it was 1 kotoba, and i dont want my gohan (rice) to touch my other things (it can get wet and i would not like that, plus 2 compartments looks more kawaii)



Also dropping letters+the last vowel in a word is how you know it's cool and hip, designed for those millennial 'hep' cats' who are really 'in the know' and 'on the button' and 'twenty-three skiddoo' and 'hot diggedy'.

The plan was for a hundred systems at release, with 3-4 landing zones on each or so. About 400 in total.

Good luck.

Hahha, can you imagine? In 7 or 8 years (assuming this is all real) they introduce landing zone 128 on star xyz after working on it for 7-8 months. You fly over and land.

"ooohhh ahhhhh" you say, maybe spend a few UEE on a drink in the bar. Then you fly away and wait until next summer for landing zone 129.

Do they even pretend to work on this poo poo? I mean the narrative is they're working to ship out SQ42 now, but it's not like that story will be finished any year soon

It really depends on your definition of good. It is really well made, the graphics are nice, the sound design is outstanding, the universe is huge.

Meanwhile, I'm playing Elite, where I'm currently flying through completely unexplored systems on my way to the galactic core, thousands of lightyears from the few-hundred systems humanity actually inhabits. I can on a planet right now and drive a rover around it, getting credit for my exploration data.

This is a small corner of a game than can be played right now, as opposed to Star Citizen, which won't be as playable as this until 2020.

Thanks Commando! The song is Rebound by Arty and Matt Zo. I'm pretty fussy when it comes to EDM, but that tune always gets my hairs prickled. I should credit the song on the vid, but I'm afraid youtube will get all triggered and pull the audio.

I had to do some work in my audio editing sw to time it just right, but well worth I think. Glad you appreciated that.
