By Canadian Beer... do you mean Lager? Or do you mean proper Beer (Ale).

If you mean Lager, then things like Coors really aren't good.

No coors sucks.. and it is US beer to boot which has the consistancy of water. Other than Sam Adams and a choice few its pretty well known our Beer is superior and probably only bested by the Germans.
 
We'll never know what his favorite beer is...

Of course we do, its....

Hi Folks,

David has finished answering questions for this Q&A session.

Hope you all enjoyed it. :D
 

Praevarus

Well at least we know he'll sign b00bies upon request!

I'm sure there will be a lot of guys that'll want theirs signed. :)


Thanks again for your time David, if I see you in game - I promise not to blow up your ship !

I'd laugh so hard if someone blew him up and David had that Commander's server-side save deleted.

How will paid expansions affect those that don't get them?

Will people that haven't bought the boarding/walking around expansion still be able to defend their own ship?


That could be really interesting if a pirate sees a rich player with a nice ship and haul of cargo.

Pirate: "Look at all of that beautiful loot. I must have it!" *attempts to board*

Server: "Sorry. This player does not own the boarding module."

Victim: "Haha! It's all MINE! :p"

Pirate: "NOOOOoooo... Maybe if I..."

*player soon finds out that someone has bought them the necessary expansion and the download is being streamed in*

Victim: "WHAT?!" *tries to get away and fails*

Pirate: "A-ha! I have you now!" *wrings hands greedily*

To be honest, I am impressed how civilized this went. I don't know how many posts Michael deleted at the very beginning but all in all though drinking the questions through a fire hose David had enough air to breathe.
Either we are the best community on this planet or the session was on too short notice.:p
 
Thanks David,

We all really appreciate the time you took to do this.

Planetary landings won't be a single thing. ...
I imagine we will start with landings on airless moons. You would be able to see heavy industry, craters up close, and ultimately be able to deposit things on the surface (stash cargo or mining machines). ...

^^ This statement right here ^^
Has me grinning like the Cheshire cat :D
I cannot wait!

Even factoring in how much I drag the average down, I think that on the whole we are a quite a mature and sensible lot.
 
Well I think most people have enjoyed the engagement so thanks for David taking the time. In future I think a twitch live stream would be a better format because it would be easier to answer more questions from the ever growing number of backers.

Best of luck for E3. I wonder if we are going to see some new stuff today?

;)
 
I've just got in from work and can't believe that I have missed this.

I really wanted to ask David if he could design a weapon for my cobra that fires paint and makes pretty pictures in the vastness of outer space! - That would be a really cool thing to have.

woof woof! - That's my other dog impression.
 
missed the boat

aw shame... i didnt get a chance to say thank you to David for introducing such a fantastic game when it all started all those years ago. :)

That's a shame, because he was specifically asking after you too! :)

Joking aside, not everyone's questions were answered anyway (*cough*), and he did say he'd try and repeat the session again in the future.
 
I never seem to ask the questions that they want to answer :rolleyes:
Anyway, it was nice of David and Michael to do this, and I hope they do it again soon (I just used the S word, didn't I?)
