But why does it cost 396 + 20 for something that costs 350? Couldn't I just keep the 20 dollar ship and buy the 350 one for 350? I can see I'm out of my jpg depth here.

Editing database costs extra, and privilege and milking you for more cash. Its the CIG way.

I'm still of the opinion that something will come out. I just think it's going to be a mess, meet a quarter of the promises, and everyone who bought a wave 3 or later ship is going to get severely burned or possibly even completely ripped off. I just haven't seen anything out of them that indicates an even partially functioning alpha is coming within the next year. To say nothing of the fully functional Squadron 42, which was supposed to be out... now, actually.

This pretty much sums up what views I have left on this game.

E; and it kind of kills me that its gone this route. I had such high hopes for it. I expected a lot, obviously too much.

The performance capture in MGSV was also really good, mostly because Kiefer Sutherland actually puts in a subtle and understated performance rather than unhinging his jaw to consume the podium like Gary Oldman does in the S42 cutscene.

Late as gently caress, but I consider Tib Wars 3, and Kane's Wrath, to be the best C&C installments outside of Tib Sun. The multiplayer is janky as gently caress because of a "Desync" issue that EA never bothered to fix, and the game itself has a spotty record of working at all but EA basically abandoned it. drat shame.

Basically the thing blew up because the international backers felt it was in bad taste to donate to a military organization.

It was because it was the American military. The Germans especially threw a huge fit about that, and didn't want to support foreign troops, least of all the Americans.

Not sure.

That incident did get covered by gaming press, first on TMC, and was swept under the rug by :lesnick: and CIG because a) Goons started it, b) It wasn't a real issue anyways. The mods basically told everyone to play nice, didn't punish anyone outside of the goons involved, and tried to act like it never happened.

This is how I play Fallout. I don't care about killing Master Monster Brute for the GECK, I just want to pry open a rusty door into a dusty basement and ransack everything over a 10:1 value to weight ratio.

25:1, but alas you can't do anything with it. I had such hope for SC and the Reclaimer. That I could just meander around and dig into old wrecks, forgotten battle sites, remnants of fleets. That is what I was hoping for out of this. Not really any game that offers that kind of thing without also spinning it as a survival horror or something.

Have you tried space engineers yet? You can set random ships to spawn and fly through your map and you then catch them and slowly break them down into neat little pieces with your trusty angle grinder. Then later with your gigantic fuckoff spaceship with dozens of gigantic fuckoff grinders that snares a ship and chews through it in seconds, that you built out of the remains of other ships.

It's not something I enjoy doing all the time, but there is something about those grinder & welder sounds...

I've seen it, and followed it somewhat. Its going in the right direction, just too impersonal. I guess I got caught up in the fantasy of exploring wrecks in fps then later on switching to the big claw and chewing and rending the ships into scrap after I've pulled out everything of value.
