I hate that I know this but my ex's dad bought a lifetime membership to a golf club he lives near for I think $80k. (Which like I'm sure a yearly golf membership would be less? But who knows.) Technically this membership can be passed down to someone else later on and it includes family guests and stuff but holy poo poo. That money could have gone to so much other stuff... but it was his and that's how he wanted to spend it. Pretty sure any hobby can get super expensive at the top end. Honestly $2k for a desk hardly surprises me but for that money I would've picked something that was a lot more tasteful. edit: here's my fluffball, she's turning 15 next month Clocks fucked around with this message at 22:24 on Mar 23, 2019 |

How long to find all the hidden things that actually have any value (unlike the asteroid fields they have currently)? In a well-designed game this would be easy to address. Asteroid fields would constantly spawn at random places, be discovered, mined out, and then disappear. Rinse, repeat. But nothing of that matters because there will never be asteroid fields of any type to discover in SC.

SoftNum posted:I don't think Golf is that expensive? Like that desk would get you a pretty good set of clubs. Plays are just not that expensive. they just assume that what it looks like in media is what it is, and they have no outdoors interests to compare the actual costs to.

Also golf, and sports in general, is an activity where buying the best equipment doesn't make you a superstar. It make you a conversational curiosity. Of course there is no parallel to a hobby like Star Citizen.

They're just going to do the hidden signal source "Random encounter" system from Elite. Scans generate little markers, warp to the marker for a pregen random encounter. We all know it. They know it too. They just won't admit it.

Then they get excited because once at area 18 the "traffic" starts moving even though it mysteriously freezes once it leaves area 18.

Last time I bothered to pay attention you couldn't actually just quantum travel in any direction or change course while you were in QT, I wonder if that changed or how that's gonna impact "exploration" if you have to do your deep space wandering in regular travel
