State of the Game

[Erei]

@Erei - I'm not having a go at you personally, I'm above that except for the odd exception.
Just illustrating that some of our posters appear to be less than wholly truthful - if I can do surface missions even in places with fire, at 2560*1440 and stay mainly at 60 FPS on my last generation GPU...

If you need a chuckle, my getting a face full of plasma was good!

It's ok, I'm quite busy ATM, not really time to watch much^^. The whole 2080 was not mine (I don't have one), It was Amy, I think who said she ran "decently" with that kind of card. Since I don't have a 2080 myself I'm reliant on other people experience, and I trust Amy.

I didn't take it as a jab. I believe you, I mean I don't have a 2080, so I can lie, but that's about as much I can do, and that's not cool.

They really were pretty powerful compared to... just about everything else that existed at the time.

so we have been told

That an original Amiga?

I've got an original A1200, but been hardware modded with a Gotek and 1 GB HD... surprisingly Workbench doesn't have any issues dealing with that.

Yeah that wasn't mine, but I have an A500+ in the loft along with all my old games. Including of course Elite 1 and 2.

I recognize that forum poster.

He was a bit upset that I took off with his blanket, but it was an assignment from @Bottom Hat, so blame him!

That's cruel. You can't take people stuph unless they tell you it's ok !

Sorry, bud. That part of my contract is pretty explicit about NOT having to ask nicely. Had to negotiate a bit with the old guy for it, but we both agreed that asking nicely would be out of character for me and thus unbelievable.

 

[Rat Catcher]

that would be surprising. i don't really get offended. especially not from online comments.

That's understandable...

 

[MishaTX]

But, since I'm always easy going and willing to compromise, I'll leave out the BLAM!-ming. Most of the time. Sometimes. Occasionally.

Did you try to take it stealthily ? You might want to use a grenade as a stealth decoy first.

Wouldn't be out of character either! Hmmm... Worth a thought or two!

I find that the rocket launcher is reasonably stealthy too...
NPCs head for the explosion, rather than the source!

Interesting reaction, to be sure. As I recall, away from the explosion is better.

Must be some new fangled training manual.

They obviously found an ancient British Army one!

I think I know which one! The one written by a guy they later named a whisky after? Getting warm?

Elite Dangerous: Coming Home?

For certain values of home?

I was thinking of "Dad's Army" (ancient British TV series) at the time...

Calmly walk up to target, knock on hull, and firmly (yet calmly) explain why the tank must simply explode and avoid all unpleasantness.
