Please no, this is the Death star all over again. Shockwaves in space are spherical. I don't see anything on that asteroid that would cause the shockwave to be funneled and travel along only that plane instead of expanding out as soon as the gases/debris come out.



It looks good though.

Surely that would depend on where the charge was placed and how the explosive works.

triple wow, I thought taking the 29/10-2/11 off for the RDR2 launch was a good idea... boy am I glad that I did!!

now just need to workout how I can get my PC and XBOX 1X all up and running on one desk and I'm sorted.. might have to move thr beer fridge into the "Home Office" too....

good job FDEV, I can imagine how frustrating it's been having to do the "we'll let you know about chapter 4" denial danceon the livestreams lately!

o7!!!!

'Love that teaser...
'Love that guardianesque/milleniumFalconesque Krait, love the asteroid scanner, the cloud and thunder (gas giant?!?), the squadron interface.

Oh and of course... I dig that exploding asteroid...!!

I'm sufficiently hyped now. Release the beta!

Wait, where's the guy who at this point says we should all have our saved CMDRs wiped when C4 arrives so as to put us all on the same footing because of previous exploits and "just because"?

No? OK...

I think we should all have our saved CMDRs wiped when C4 arrives so as to put us all on the same footing because of previous exploits and because I say so.

Anyone else find it interesting that a week would be devoted to new ships in the beta. Ships generally don't require as much large-scale testing - in comparison to something like Squadrons. I wonder if it's not just new ships, but if there's some new gameplay there too?
Click to expand...

Indeed. Or one or more of the new ships require new gameplay to use. A few interesting possibilities in this area have been suggested in some of the many Panther Clipper threads in recent weeks. Not that im actually saying *PANTHER CLIPPER* or CONFIRMED in the same sentence. I dont want anyone calling for a nurse again. :)

Realy looking forward to the beta.
And thank god for the release info, I don't know about anyone else but the forum has been quite dull recently(IMO)
I'm a week in to my two week holiday(vacation) and this is the only contact I have the game.
Keep the analysis/speculation coming.
Thanks for the boost.

Shaped charges. Don't want the asteroid blown into small pieces everywhere.

Question on something that is far more of a UI upgrade than new feature. Are we going to see updates along these lines:

* Allowing us to sort all kinds of lists as we want. For example, it is a right pain in the brain to find a specific friend in a large friend list, when it is sorted by distance to you. Lots and lots of places in the game would be so much more useful with sortable lists. Throw filterable lists into the mix while we're at it.
* Please, for the love of the Scrolls of Vectron, stop hiding the "DO NOT APPROACH lines/circles around stars! If I'm in super cruise I don't EVER want those to go away unless I have specifically set an option to do so. This is egregious to the point that it's bordering having "eject all cargo" bound by default.

I don't think you've been paying attention. All of the Beyond updates are free. The only thing is some of the aspects involve planetary landings, and if you were too cheap to also get the Horizons content, you're out of luck there. But there's no excuse for people NOT to get the Horizons content.
