I'll have to agree. That stealing a turret and shooting down the ship is some Matrix style poo poo.

Also, what is that song? It's fantastic.

Probably close to eclipsing the viewcount on any given INN video, too. I'd like to note that Shatner also did Rocket Man.

ME1's combat felt old and clunky even back then, like some sort of halfway point between KOTOR and a proper shooter-RPG. At least that's how I see it...

Also when CIG implodes because SQ42 is a crap game wrapped in a crap movie and SC ends up being nothing more than the tech demo that it is today, put Ben on a suicide watch. Seriously.
We are already watching Ben's suicide.

Like with 90% of things in the game I have no clue if I did it, someone else did it or it was a bug.
The choice is yours generally ha ha. Although I think I did do that, felt like it anyway.

Thanks for the kind words everyone as well, they cheered me right up :D

Common People from the album Has Been.

If you're trying to place the voice it would be everyone's favorite William Shatner.

I knew about that other stuff. Common People isn't just a catchy pop song though, it's incredibly class concious in a way I'd never expect to translate that well over the pond.

Seems like it did though, so what do I know. Although an American singing "smoke some fags" just sounds really wrong.

And the original is still miles better...

Disco, if you're reading this I would like to apologize. I was wrong about you. You're doing a good job of representing SC to the community. You are funny, you clearly have the right attitude about all of this, and it's a shame you never picked up the Benphone because I think we would have had some good conversations together. I doubt that will ever happen now, but I just wanted to say that I was wrong about you.

Ben, if you're reading this, go gently caress yourself.

I believe it was a brief commentary on how Disco appears to cynically be riding the train until it's time to get another job/sell his book on the SC experience.

Nothing out of the ordinary has taken place in that quarter.

pretty great comment on that article. can't tell if it's irony or not:

quote:

Joke ? Maybe you should try it yourself to see how big "joke" it is , or maybe you can't even run it.Star Citizen is a true PC game that can't be run on old gen consoles.And then it is not even out yet , still no Dx12 support , partial VR integration and whats available now is just a tiny portion of what it will be.Without publishers and without deadlines they are progressing slowly but impressive.Tell me another game like this that has so much detail and such a grand design ? There isn't one.Star Citizen is the biggest game project ever concieved.When it is finished 2-3 years i hope you will see that its the True next gen game , unlike anything till now.Not a single game i've seen or played can be truely named Next gen.

oh right dx12 support lol

that will ensure the ships are fidelitous

But that's just it, my family is working class and Pulp don't come off as factory workers, they look like wankers. At least Shatner's voice can pass for an aging union worker or something. He sells the outrage of the situation much better.
