Now I am back in the bubble for no reason already regretting this purchase! Bright side, you can turn in that data now without risking any more jumps or crashes

Sad thing is if I remember correctly the odyssey tutorial is more interesting than any other odyssey content I ever tried.

I made it back into the black without too much trouble and the game is almost exactly the same. Witch space looks different and I'm down 10bux but oh well

Update 15 tentatively scheduled for May 9th. According to the guy on Frameshift Live, they apparently are going to add something, somewhere, and leave it up for players to find. Which I guess is a way to get people to stretch out content and make the patch seem like more than it is? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_NTk6nDzZg New Thargoid I guess? Frameshift Live moving from a 2 week schedule to a 4 week schedule, no more weekly Discovery Scanner articles, and their senior community manager is getting shuffled to a new project (as of last friday).

I kind of figured out a way to make it less painful for the specific thing I wanted this time, so that's good. One thing that's sort of annoying about this game is how much info you can google that's out of date. There was also apparently some site called EDDB that shut down like, at the start of this month that was very useful but between the wiki, INARA and coriolis Im doing ok

I think killing console killed more of the remaining community than they maybe thought it would, especially with the game aging anyway. e I can't believe eddb is gone, that was one of my constantly open windows Inspector Hound fucked around with this message at 15:48 on May 1, 2023 |

The rest apparently have cheesy ways to do it Yeah, going for specific mats is a fool's errand. Tellurium for example, is best farmed by ignoring it for sources of similar or even higher graded mats and then just searching out a mat trader to transform all the mats you don't need into Tellurium. Repeat for every other material.

its really cool how I put in all the goddamn massive effort required to get a fully upgraded FSD drive and now when I try to finish it off with an experimental effect it gives me a server error and doesn't apply it how does one manage to fail that badly in game system design

I think ultimately having worked my way up to Robigo runs, gathered enough mats to make a engineered FSD-drive Fer De Lance and fart around with it, I realized the combat is still sort of boring and ultimately I'm just buying bigger and bigger ships to do the same thing I was already doing, and it's a bit shallow beyond that. Having said that I got 100 hours out of it and that's good and frankly there just aren't any Privateer-likes worth a poo poo at all and I'll chase that dragon forever, so I don't feel like I completely wasted my time but I wish it was better. In conclusion,

Saw the update coming up. Last time I played a little bit was to check out the FPS combat when it was released. We all know how that turned out. I just downloaded it and will play a bit after the update to see how things are and if I like it enough to stick around a while. I just got in my ship and parked in a station and holy poo poo a lot is new with the menus and stuff but sounds like they only put a little more polish on the turd. I got a space bug and it's either Elite or X4 and I'm already familiar with Elite so gonna try that first but if I don't enjoy it, gonna try to play X4. Although learning all the systems and mechanics in that game may turn me off. May not have the patience.

I've found the best way for me to enjoy Elite is to play it when I feel a hyperfocus coming on and I can direct my ADHD superpowers into it for 200 hours of playing within the span of a couple months, then stop playing for about 4 or 5 months until I feel the itch again. Elite is a game best enjoyed over time in bursts when there's new content, imo

I did complete the story, but in between each story mission, I spent way more time than was necessary just doing job board missions, running cargo, and upgrading my ship. I like having an overarching story, as long as it’s not going to punish me for spending hours and hours dicking around when I feel like veering off course. The game that’s kind of been scratching that itch for me lately is, oddly enough, Dredge.

Independence War 2 is somehow still getting community fixes and just last year or so they fixed a couple critical crashes in the game https://i-war2.com/ https://github.com/i-war2-community/i-war2-patch Has anybody played the new patch? Is it another nothingburger?

Yeah, basically. You can get a device to go into a maelstrom by neutralizing the shutdown field and ultimately it doesn't seem to have any sort of purpose except there are a couple of new materials floating around. There's a video talking about all the stuff people really know about the maelstrom that is pretty good as long as you aren't triggered by the guy's loud rear end chair making noise or whatever it is that is making noise in the background https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=slB9JE3fGf4 Cutedge fucked around with this message at 22:10 on May 11, 2023 |

mekyabetsu posted:Yeah, I bought that game, played for a bit, and enjoyed it for the most part. For whatever reason, I never stuck with it. I remember being not overly fond of the actual flying parts and playing a lot of pool. I definitely should give it another try. I would love something like that combined with Elite: Dangerous’s flight model, but I guess that’s what we all want. Yeah the issue for me with Elite is, despite it being such a huge timewaste letdown, the flight model is such a good balance between deep and arcadey, heavy and floaty, that it makes most other space games I try feel dissatisfying since. Even if they do literally everything else better. Braben cursed a whole genre for me.
