For me the point of a game like this is to create something i am proud of. I like to build. To pull something from the void of my mind and look at it, fly it, see it blow stuff up and get blown up its self. PvP is spice. Hot, sweaty, brutal spice. Yes the game needs some work. ( what game these days doesn't ?) but i still love building and seeing what others build. I currently have 924 hrs into this game and several thousand into games like it ( over 1600 in starmade alone ). I see many more to come. Enjoy any game for what it is rather then for what it is not.
I'm in the same place. This game and Fallout 4 are the only games I play in 2d, the call of VR is strong (I have played Empyrion in VR, its got a few issues). Its really addictive to do the action your self over a hot key or button (Like put a gun to a zombies head and pop its melon, or swinging the sword that takes its head off). IMO, a lot off EA games may wanna look into some basic VR support as its coming. But right now, I'm even burned out of sp Empyrion, the bugs are worse then pre alpha.
Ugh, Dad showed up outta nowhere yesterday & said he's gonna be home in the evening today & tomorrow too in addition to gonna be here this Weekend... I only got Tuesday to get to catch back up on my MP playing... how can this possibly be fair? I can only try to sneak in play this morning & tomorrow morning then i'm outta luck again for the rest of the time till at least next Monday if i'm not dragged off to help him elsewhere.
Hey everyone! Just so you know, I have been working on the website, which is mostly set up at this point, but not quite ready for use, I'm hoping to get the forum software finalized tonite, at that point I will post the IP so you guys can start messing around with it. Mind you, its mostly just a default wordpress website at this point, so if any of you are interested in contributing some graphics work, I'm all ears!
Gah! Looks like I walked straight into Dependency/DLL hell on my linux box, the forum wants php 5.x and the version of ubuntu we are using only includes 7.x and up, so we are having to so some OS sculpting.
I to have gone back to SP. Also looking around for something different to play. Wish Planet Nomads was ready for some kind of release. All the Red/Blue Team have been fantastic to me.
Alright, for any RGC members or anyone who may be interested: Project Jericho is approaching the 100k block mark! I'll edit this when the design breaks that mark..... Edit: Just broke it....... Not to be rude or anything..... But has BNS ever broken this milestone? lol
IT'S DONE!!! WOOT!!! ^_^ Spoiler: Tyrax Dragon Transport (AKA a CV) Front View: Not sure if I overdid it on pulling back for the Screenie taking. Right Side View: Doh! Forgot to move that other dude outta the Screenie! >_< Rear View: This Screenie contains one of the main reasons for me to build a Personal CV... the HV Hangar. (Though in hindsight it mighta helped if I had lit it up a bit before Screenieing... I plead Post CV Build Brain Fatigue. ) Left Side View: Top View: Theoretically some of this Top Middle Space here could be used for Guest SV Docking... in practice, I dunno if i'll recommend it. I stuck Passenger Seats on my dude in case I ever need to give anyone (I trust) a ride but really this dude's mostly for personal use. Also, my SV Hangar (Partially visible in the 2 Side View Screenies) is really meant for my Tyrax Dragonet to have it to herself. Bottom View: & no, I do NOT think I overdid it on the Landing Gear.
Yep, I tend to prefer to. Also I snuck onto the Server last night at risk to serious trouble with my Dad & managed to sneak Mine a Silicon Meteor while I waited out that last bit of Timer for my Iji to complete Build then got her Deployed. Iji is awaiting getting prepped then she's back! Also, that aforementioned Silicon Meteor was sweetly dropped right on my House's Doorstep, & while Mining it, another Meteor dropped & hilariously tried its damn best to plunk itself right into my Base's hole... it almost Scored! XD Spoiler: Neodymium Ball aiming for the Center Pocket! Edit: Oh, also after a HELL of a lot of trouble I FINALLY found the info in a deep dark hole of Microsoft's Site on how to Operate the Game Recording feature of W10, & have managed to make a few successful Test Recordings! Turned out the damn thing was called the "GameDVR" or something like that & was hiding in the XBox stuffs this whole time. Thus far lookin good at Recording high powered Vids without my Computer getting lagged! Confirmed success at Recording in Empyrion & Overwatch thus far! (Though none worthy of the light of day. One I test drove for an hourish was especially particularly boring.) It's on my to-do list to test drive how well it records in some other games including Heroes of the Storm & dummy test Viding of Dragon Quest Heroes: The World Tree's Woe & the Blight Below, & FF10 & 10-2 HD Remaster, though Vids of those last 2 will not be for the light of day & will be deleted after their job is done. Could also be interesting to try Test Vidding during a SV vs CV Dogfight. Also now that my CV is finally done, next build, it's time for me to make my next try at a Hover War Tank. Edit 2: Oh, also just occurred to me... can't remember for sure... was one of these Default W10 Apps some kinda Vid Editor too for doin fancy schmancy stuff like what @LiftPizzas does when making his Lets Plays? The same dude that Records the Vids seems to have its Editing Powers limited to just being able to Trim the Vid.
Also another thing about Jericho.... With the amount of Thruster's I've shoved on the damn thing, it will have over 10 GN (GigaNewtons) or 10,000 MN of forward and reversing thrust! Spoiler: You might be asking Question: god damnit, Since when did a ~130k Block build need that? My response is: When you want it to accelerate at 40 m/s
Wouldn't know how in the sense of Measuring it accurately, I only know i'm pleased with my Transport's Acceleration Speed & Maneuverability. Now that I think about it, I can't remember if I remembered to Share her to the Workshop... I oughta do that tonight then ya'all can Spawn your own then maybe one of ya could figure it out.
