After a long career in the military followed by continuing government service, I am having some free time to be a photographer. Not a professional photographer, mind you, because I cannot guarantee the consistent results demanded by the exchange of legal tender for services to be rendered.

I too, enjoy taking snaps of things with my Samsung phone (when it's not exploding) when I'm not conducting clandestine yet completely unhidden amatuer surveillance on chat forums about a crap game and threatening the posters with my government powers (that I don't have).

So now he wants to take "donations" of money so he can give a small percentage to someone (apparently random and not at all himself/pseudonym or someone he knows)?

Please Cymelion, present to us one solitary feature or item that CIG has "done" to a finished state and will not "refactor" about half a dozen times before it's forgotten about.

I honestly think he is developmentally challenged.

This makes less than zero sense

Further how the gently caress did they break 2.5 by releasing a patch to a completely separate instance ?

Also want to add that it's a great time to be alive, being able to witness firsthand the terrible promises made by Crobblers catching up with him bit by bit as the slow dawning of technical limitations finally begins to creep across his fetid smug thumblike face.

I think he knows he's playing for time now, and he knows it's about to fail, he just doesn't understand yet how big of a failure this is all going to be. I can't wait to post *smugface* on their forum the day it all happens.

This is amazing. Depending on how it looks once EA hits I may buy in.

Same here, it ticks all the right boxes for me with the slow scavenge, survive and build gameplay, kinda like a serious Subnautica in space. :)

Plus it's multiplayer. Depending on how the game is structured and server size (I doubt it's large but who knows) it could be fun to make GoonBase. Hours spent creating a giant goatse ring.

A massive Goatse Tortuga of a base, it's like you read my mind :) I can quite easily picture a group of us taking on such a project, hopefully the multiplayer aspect of it is well thought out.

One thing that always keeps me interested in it is the narrators complete lack of buzzwords and sales pitches, it's almost as if he actually cares more for creating a good game than the money gains he can get from backers, very refreshing. :)

I don't even pay for tix when I go, I buy $12 beers and too much food and I wonder what the gently caress I'm doing with all this money as there are literally people starving 500 feet away

shits hosed, and I realized I could help, even a little

but it's never enough, unfortunately

Little things here and there to help those less fortunate than the rest of us are awesome. :)

There's not many homeless people where I live, but the local people including myself try to help them out and get them back on their feet if that's appealing to them. There's one guy, really nice bloke who goes around gathering up any litter on the pavements and binning it, the other residents and I always make sure he has good, clean clothes, warm sleeping stuff for winter and plenty of food etc, people keep offering him a room to get him out of the elements but he always politely declines.

Anyone who does stuff to help out those who need it are simply very cool people, the world needs more of those. :)
