They're some Australian yobbos who think that smashing tables is such excellent fun that they formed a table smashing club and still post tons of videos online. Snowglobe of Doom posted:The video apparently comes via a Facebook group called The Table Breakers Club. They're pretty much just doing the pro-wrestling spot of jumping off a thing and landing on a guy lying on a table but they can't be bothered sourcing regular wooden trestle tables so they just use whatever's available, with mixed results. THey're also completely untrained (obviously!) so they miss about as often as they hit, they're actually a step down from backyard wrestlers even though I wouldn't have thought that was possible. This article has a few of their fuckup highlights.

In Team Fortress 2 and Tribes I always like playing the engineer roles where you run around building defenses and repairing guns. It can be done well.

If you haven't been following the "Mad Mike Hughes" flat earth rocket launch thread in GBS you'll be missing some remarkable schadenfreude. This guy is extraordinarily incompetent at everything he does and constantly fucks up in new and unexpected ways. Let's watch as Mike and his support crew attempt to move his steam powered rocket from the launch RV (that's right, I said "steam powered rocket" and "launch RV") to a trailer, a relatively simple process.

I thought he backed out of that, or is he back in the game? I'd like to watch the man instantly boil himself in steam accident.

He initially delayed the launch because of technical difficulties (the RV which he bought off Craiglist and remodelled as a launch vehicle broke down in his driveway) and then when he got to the launch site and started setting up the Bureau of Land Management turned up and went "Uh hey all your stuff is on our property and there's no loving way we're letting you do this dumbass stunt here so gently caress off somewhere else." So then Mike decided to do the stunt on a friend's private property so they packed everything up and hauled it over there and started setting up again and a week later they were almost ready to launch when the Bureau guys turned up again and went "Heyyy you're still on our property, you're 150 feet short of your friend's land so gently caress off" so Mike and his crew packed it all up again and tried to move 200' over but the ground was too sandy for his RV to drive over it so they gave up and decided to go back to the original site and try and talk the Bureau into letting them launch there. (Spoiler: the Bureau is going to say no again.) While they were driving back the rocket fell off the back of the RV and got damaged so Mike decided to take it home. It looks like he's going to try and do the launch on Super Bowl Sunday now.

I see that you are not SCs target audience. The point isn't to fly around and shoot poo poo otherwise they'd just go play freelancer. The point is to feel like your piloting your very own starship. To command or be part of a crew thats exploring the deepest recesses of space. Basically people who want to be in star trek, and the maintenance and minutiae of working a starship gives the feeling of being part of something greater than themselves alone.

I mean, I can find entertainment in games where I'm doing non-action stuff to assist other people. I don't give a poo poo in single player, but I enjoy playing games with other people even if I'm not the one making kills. That's why Artemis is fun for people other than the one pulling the trigger to blow up other ships. But it's really gotta be more than "Press E to fix this". Space Station 13 is a really good example because a small minority of the jobs actually involve violence or action-packed adventures on a regular basis and a lot of them are just doing benign things like making medicine to supply the Medbay or performing routine repairs, but there's a lot of complexity to the jobs that let you experiment with stuff and feel a sense of accomplishment when you figure out the atmosphere system pumping through the station and learn how you can manipulate it. And occasionally you end up playing out a sci-fi action or horror movie when poo poo gets real. Star Citizen could maybe be good if it was like a 3D Space Station 13. Even then, it would actually need to release a game for that to happen.
