Pretty sure we talked right?

I guess at least I can come on and listen, could go back to being silent again and communicating with fire extinguishers XD

I mean once the game is coordinated and started you can just listen on the discord and talk using the in game text chat as well.

Also yeah i have heard your voice, although i cannot remember exactly what game it was for. Probably Arma.

peoplearestrange · Thu Aug 11, 2016 5:12 pm

Oh yeah probably arma and the airstrike incident(s)

Piloting the ship is fun as fuck, i was flying through ring asteroids and shit

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUCK for some reason it didn't record anyone but me

COLONIC ACID'S WILD RIDE is lost to time and space. All we have is me yelling at him and the sound of the game, but nobody else's speech.

For those of you who missed it CA was doing a shit job of piloting this gigantic ship through a small jump gate, so we all got savage on him which only made things worse. He must have fucked up the approach four times before I made the executive decision as captain to cut off the ship's oxygen supply so if he didn't make the jump everyone would die.

Suffice it to say it ended with the entire crew running around an oxygenless ship in space suits screaming and yelling at eachother and fighting over who gets to be the replacement pilot.

BUT WHERE IS THE PROOF?

FOR ALL EVERYONE KNOWS I WAS SUCH A GOOD PILOT THAT YOUR TINY CHIMPANZEE LIKE MINDS COULD NOT UNDERSTAND MY AERIAL ACROBATICAL MASTERY OVER THE SHIPS NAVIGATION SYSTEM ZMH.

Fuck, that was a golden moment. The panic in my voice as he started to fly us into the sun was all too real.

Oh man that sucks! There was some proper hilarious moments last night.
Also genuinely surprised we lasted as long as we did. Though that might be because we didn't really get anywhere ha!

"Hey I noticed the ship is losing Oxygen but I'm not hearing an Australian accent on comms how is this happening?"

I think the best part was the constant choking going on in chat from everyone laughing too hard while the ship was constantly burning or losing O2. I just picture the gang goofing off and laughing while slowly wheezing to death.

Also

>It's dat boiii has joined the crew!

Every fucking time

I can not wait for the day that federation outposts start beaming distress beacons after a colonist ship with no life signs beamed over a super computer virus/virulent plauge/bunch of space zombies so that i can drop the biggest i told you so in cosmic history

Timbrewolf · Post by **Timbrewolf** » Fri Aug 12, 2016 3:15 pm #202761

That part was spoop. Then we got closer and all their shit was glitching out.

Malkevin · Post by **Malkevin** » Fri Aug 12, 2016 7:06 pm #202857

I was derping about with it last night to get a feel for the roles.

Why don't you just turn off the oxygen and grab an exosuit?
You might run slightly slower but you're saving a lot of power and without oxygen the fire blob can't ovulate.

Timbrewolf · Post by **Timbrewolf** » Fri Aug 12, 2016 7:42 pm #202879

On big ships speed is life. Going slow and not having a jetpack in exchange for a miniscule amount of power isn't a good deal.

Timbrewolf · Post by **Timbrewolf** » Fri Aug 12, 2016 7:45 pm #202881

IMO none of the subsystems are really worth fucking with. Your reactor's bigger limit is its cooling factor, not raw power output. It's only after you've upgraded all your thrusters, and shields that you start needing to look at a reactor that is larger.

If you want to try an experiment limit the total power output and then fly around with all the sub systems on. Note your top speed. Then turn them all off and try it again.

So wanna play this, it looks like tons of fun. Gotta wait till I get paid though.

Malkevin · Post by **Malkevin** » Mon Aug 15, 2016 10:44 am #203469

Played as a pubbie on some 14 yo captains' server

Gotta say, he set the bar high

Bitch please my amazing stewardship will make that 14 year old look like an 8 year old who looks like a 4 year old.

DemonFiren · Post by **DemonFiren** » Wed Sep 28, 2016 7:29 pm #214818

I wanna ask if a) this is still a thing and b) you want a ligger crewman.

XSI · Post by **XSI** » Thu Sep 29, 2016 12:41 am #214917

We very rarely get a small crew of 2-3 together, but it seems there is no real plan to get actual crews going or do actual Pulsar-ing

I'd be up for doing some of this though

DemonFiren · Post by **DemonFiren** » Thu Sep 29, 2016 7:00 am #214970

Thought so.
Maybe next month, for now I bought CHODE instead.

Davidchan · Post by **Davidchan** » Thu Sep 29, 2016 7:51 am #214983

Still on the fence if this is worth doling out dosh for. I can afford it, but is it worth it?

Timbrewolf · Post by **Timbrewolf** » Thu Sep 29, 2016 12:30 pm #214999

It's fun but it's not the FOTM right now. I think those of us who have it are waiting for some more content to get added before diving back in.

XSI · Post by **XSI** » Thu Sep 29, 2016 6:31 pm #215030

Pretty much

I've got it
I've played it a bunch with steady groups
But it gets kinda repetitive after a bit. There just isnt that much to do in it just yet

Davidchan · Post by **Davidchan** » Thu Nov 24, 2016 11:38 pm #229689

Kinda surprised that this game only went for 30% discount on steam for Thanksgiving sales when pretty much everything else was at 50 or more.

Malkevin · Post by **Malkevin** » Fri Nov 25, 2016 12:09 am #229706

Considering they've been pretty resistant to sales up until now...

XSI · Post by **XSI** » Fri Nov 25, 2016 2:43 am #229811

It's pretty good even without sale

XSI · Post by **XSI** » Tue Apr 11, 2017 12:17 am #279315

Bumping this

Anyone feel like doing some Pulsar sometime?

Malkevin · Post by **Malkevin** » Tue Apr 11, 2017 9:45 am #279423

I'd be up for it

DemonFiren · Post by **DemonFiren** » Tue Apr 11, 2017 4:33 pm #279538

I will when it's on sale.

I'd totally do this shit but oy vey oy gevalt my shekels
