Which nation should I choose if I wanna chill with goons, or does it not matter? tia

Edit: Oh god, I thought you were all going out of your way to make goofy looking characters. I can't NOT make my guy look like his face is melting, best game so far!

To all you loving crazy people throwing money at the game. Be well aware that this is a real alpha and the game is a buggy incomplete loving mess. I don't need anymore of you shitlords sending me SA pms about how to have fun in a game that doesn't tell you what the gently caress to do.

I chill out in the CTS mumble in the Angry Dome with the rest of the lowlife bad game goons. If you can work up the social courage to speak with other human beings that are not figments of your imagination made manifest from the anime hug pillows you bought then come in and smoke a bowl with us.

We were gonna play Scarlet Blade (The Titty Game) this week but Grithok (Third World Shitface) backed out after he got scared that he was installing piles of porn malware into his vagina. Personally I for one appreciate a naked man sticking his dick in a hole popping up at random intervals when I least expect it on my computer. Who doesn't. I can't play a game without him because he is my compass.

Truth. One day you'll be dead and one of your rear end in a top hat relatives will get to have any money you didn't spend. gently caress 'em.

They list the min space requirement as 5GB. I don't actually have the game installed, but realistically maybe a gig extra.

I can't look it up right now, but yesterday I read about this in a post: Currently you'll need a dualcore processor with 3gb ram and around 5gb of space if I remember correctly. This is also subject to change as development progresses.

They also suggesed that there might not be another character wipe after todays wipe, but they are not sure about it. Since the game is incomplete I think they're after our 25$ and will definately wipe again.

Alright so I made a rogue nation "Souljaz 4 Christ" you need to go to Sept Falls (Neutral Town) to find it and join. This doesn't matter what faction you are on but if you start in Owon it's easier to get to sept falls by road. PM Drinkfist, either in game or the forums, to get an invite as I won't be on until tomorrow because of work life stuff. You need to be a somethingawful member in good standing (as in you weren't banned/probated for some creepy MRA/Furry/Rape poo poo.) and post a haiku relating to how some part the movie spaceballs is in this game.

So the GMs are loving around and giving random buffs now. The most amusing of which was when they set everyone to "dead" for 30 seconds, which consequently made it so everyone was stuck in the dead pose and couldn't move until they re-logged.

The switch is still on and I don't think they are gonna turn it off until the 26th when they do the wipe. try "/buff First Aid" and it should max out that skill line if you wanted to see that bullshit. I only maxxed out Entertainment and Leadership so I could super buff any madman that came into the bar and then air strike them. Fun fact: The last skill you get in the Dancing line is "Blow the Roof off".

Dancing and storytelling have some really crazy buffs you can stack if you know the correct orders. Things like a 30 min 35%+ to damage and 20%+ to skill gain.

I thought that was a bug and it made me like the game less; learning that the GMs were just trolling makes me like the game more.

So the way I do it is hosed. I know there has to be a better way.

Go into video options and RIGHT click the check box for fullscreen. Attempt an alt tab and it should be windowed.
Then take you screenshot with print screen.
Now resize your window back into fullscreen by changing the resolution to something like 800x600 and go alt tab to paint and paste.

The reason I have to do it this way is because when the game is in loving windowed I cant get it to minimize. You could probably just get a fraps overlay going and screencap it with a hotkey or some other sane way but gently caress I like using paint to resize and crop my bullshit in one go and by god you cant take that away from me.

Also note that there is an NDA up and I just don't give a gently caress after sending their asses emails about using a screencap for the last Repop Thread I made that died a swift death because my name isn't Widestancer. Get hosed Widestancer I was cool before it was cool. Oh yeah so NDA. "Don't post pics or stream game woooooooohhhhhhhh".

Yea, i'm having that issue too. It says they ended that funding phase, so I guess we wait till they add a new funding phase while I think about how I'm an idiot for not reading dates. The funding bump up page still seems to work, but I doubt that will actually work if you don't have any pledge pack.

We are happy to announce that immediate Access to Alpha now has been changed to the $25 package. The current Round 3 ends on November 21st at 11:59 PM EST. We are going to be adjusting the packages and perks that we plan on using through hopefully the remainder of the Alpha/Beta phases. The price point for testing is expected to go up slightly, but will still be at or below the $50 level after the change over. The $25 price point will be the lowest for awhile.

What part did you loving goons misread?

This thread just got my attention. Gonna follow it for a while and see how things progress because this sounds like a game that I might like a lot. I have not the posts here yet. Any mention of what pay model they will be going with when the game goes live?

Imagine four 'mechs waiting in a queue. Time works the same way.
You can buy skillets with real money. Mostly free to play. You can also earn other cash shop currency of fillets and flounders inside of the game.

Looks like I need to brush up on my vocabulary for this game. Skillets, fillets, and flounders? I get that these are currencies of some sort but what roles do each play? Skillets sound like your typical "give us your real money and we give you this cash shop currency which cannot be obtained in any other way" sort of thing, but what about the other two?

Tossed $25 at this a few days ago, been waiting to see how this turns out, mainly cause of the supposed parallels to SWG.

So is there an easily joinable goon guild that isn't pvp based to join that I can bounce questions off of? Seems the one listed in the OP kind of doesn't actually exist.

It's there as a placeholder in case anyone wants to use it and does have a few people in it but if any goon guilds form up I'd be happy to add them to the OP. Since the game is in its early stages I'm also open to just listing people who actually have it right now and want to dick around with other goons.

But yeah, would like to have a group to join and bounce questions off of cause I predictably lack direction, pretty much all I did was waste hours doing various things in the starting area and excessively picking flowers outside Plymouth because OCD and making numbers rise. Probably best to not bother with anything until the wipe happens tomorrow I think.

I'm one of those types that join up and ask what's the best thing to do and the fastest/easiest way to it, and given the infancy of this game so far, that kind of information doesn't necessarily exist yet. Mainly just wanna get into it cause I feel exiled from SWG even though I'm really not.
