AP posted:I don't speak German so not checked F42 Frankfurt office on linkedin for leavers, a couple left a while back I think. F42 UK I think they aren't bothered as Erin Roberts will just move them to a different game after this is all over, Austin has maybe 40+ still there, HOLLYWOOD around the same 40+. Someone I know visited the Austin office a long while back and from what I understand it seemed more like 15-20 than 40

"Very frustrating to be 15 Min into a match with some low to decent points on the board just to time out (50/50 MBits Fiber). Before 2.3 I believe, once you timed out, if there was still time left in the match, you could rejoin. At least it always put me back into the same match, whether i T/O or CTD. Now, it just searches for the next new match. When you are trying to earn REC to try out ships and you don't have a lot of time to play, throwing 10-15 minutes and 600-1000 REC to the wind is heart breaking. I cope by hoping the next match i get into has at most 10-15 minutes left in it... but that rarely happens on a reconnect attempt." More heart breaking truths.

I mean "wahwah big baby's sad he doesn't get more for free. The rest of us paid for our ships, and now you want us to feel bad for you 'cause you sometimes get disconnected? Playing the game is a privilege, not a right!!"

I won't spam up the thread with another graph, but another Fleet Pack whale just came in today, making three >= $2700 whales in the past week. Previous to that, there had been none since the Vanduul Blade went on sale.

If I was going to do that, I'd buy an old VR World pod:  If you can find them they're pretty cheap, but.. I dunno. Living where I do space is a premium, so even the open bachelor pod is still silly. G0RF posted:Why is this seem by so many as a superior alternative to a VR solution? Surely it can't be the "I don't want to look like a dork" factor. No idea. They're about equally crazy in my book, but perhaps it's because one has been around for awhile? Microsoft uses a similar setup to show off Forza at E3 and there are a number of racing fans who've had those setups for years. Papyrus games used to support specialized multi-monitor outputs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYdvkIsrzUI

Xaerael posted:Yup. Now take a moment to think about what untold damage he's doing to his shoulder joints whenever he tries to put his arms out in front of him. I used to be fat. 5'9'' 250 lbs. Being fat for most of my life has done permanent damage to my knees. I had to give up my dream of being a military pilot because both of my knees are kaput. I need rarely play my favorite sport, basketball, because of my knees too. Being fat robbed me of happiness even after I lost the weight. Now imagine Ben who is probably closer to 3 times that weight and has been fat 100% of the time. All the joints on his body are hosed. He will lose his ability to walk as his knees and back give out. His legs are bowed because of the fat and that causes a poor walking gait which causes more problems. Not even to mention his resting heart rate is probably well over 100 bpm. So his heart is enlarged and overworked and couple that with clogged arteries and you've got heart attacks waiting to happen. And that's if his sedentary lifestyle + extreme obesity doesn't give him blood clots that give him a stroke or aneurism. We all poke fun at Ben but he really is gonna die if he doesn't make positive change in his diet and lifestyle ASAP. His health is seriously permanently damaged already. Get help.

Derek, 8Ace and ATXSperg, I got a reply recently from support and I am seeing a new banner called Foundry 42 Customer Support. so are they going to ditch Clown Imperium Games as their main company and treat Foundry 42 as their main?

He seems so depressed, and I can sympathise with that, but being obsessed with this lovely "game" really isn't good for anyone.

I've been wondering about VR. I was balls deep into IL-2 back in the day (HOTAS, Track-IR etc) but despite all the gear it was still necessary to use the keyboard/mouse for stuff. Has Oculus Rift or the others solved this problem or are you stuck with having to lift the visor to take a peep?

If we do the  thing and assume that the game comes out Q1 '18, with a consistent number of fuckups to entertain the thread, we're looking somewhere on the order of 16–17,000 pages.
