Love SC's music in general. Pedro is a God.Love that music in Wally's bar
That's some mighty fine tinfoil on display there.
Tinfoil? The guys bought shares in bauxite extraction he's so loopy.

Yeah see this is the funny thing. Chris’s pursuit of dream cloud solutions has left SC with horrendous networking currently, I think we can all agree.
If you want to play a game beset by desync, via a system famous for introducing further latency, I would suggest that you haven’t actually stumbled on an ideal future scenario...
Well you would if they could ever get their tech to scale. Looking at 10 years and counting for the networking currently, with the game stuck on a single system while we wait. (And the starter solution mooted for Q4 2022 doesn’t actually scale beyond a few solar systems. Universe shards capped at 50 players have issues that way…)
A fun bit of recent player maths put the content delivery schedule for 100 solar systems themselves, once the underlying networking tech works, at around: another 10 years.
Happy exploring

And I can zip around a beach ball, but that doesn't make it a simulation of a real planet or me a spaceship, but I can do the zoom zoom noises. We've heard all the "arguments" that the down scaled planets were downscaled because they didn't want to have ship traveling faster than light rubbish...but it is all rubbish, making full scale planets is actually much harder than it looks, and seriously hand crafting an entire planet, I don't care how good your tools are, you are either going to end up with endless identical tiled geology, or you aren't going to finish ever. You can't hand craft a planet, and that's not something you can deny! Even the tiny planets in SC have consumed so much time and effort they haven't ever finished another.
You see that's one thing that is a non-starter, if they actually had another working solar system you don't think they would have put it out there, showed footage of it, even put a station there and let people fly around it on a special server if they couldn't connect it to Stanton, it would be a big thing....something that would draw in heaps of attention and lots of money, maybe even from more corporate backers because it would be a sign of real progress. Let's not bandy about not wanting to spoil the surprise....that's rubbish and we all know it, it would be a really big thing for the game and it's future and its income stream!

You seem to be confusing your personal and anecdotal perception of what the stellar forge produces with not having stuff to explore in Elite. There is actually tons of different elements of gameplay and content to explore. Elite is probably among best in class in the exploration department in particular. SC does not even have a complete stellar star system or exploration mechanics in yet though.
That's quite optimistic.
Also, they only count 96 systems. Strange.
Some strange assumptions as well. All the Vanduul systems won't be enterable? Where does he get that from? And from that he assumes they will still spend a month on them? Chris will pass up the chance to make a system full of alien assets? I don't think so!
I also don't think backer gave money for additional systems they can't actually enter.

Down in lovely Perth, West Aus. We have had more than 10 days of 40°C+ this summer. One stretch was 6 days in a row. Summer's not over yet.
Climate change? What climate change?
No you don't, i don't have that and my performance at 1440P is good.
Yeah, do you remember Star Citizen had this sort of landing mini game? By the next patch it was gone and never spoken of again such was the hate for it.
No one wants MS Flight Simulator is space.
Put the Helix mining head on it, you can get it from the refinery shop at any L1 station.
You can modify the freefly ships? Cool. Thanks.
One of Tony’s many undelivered Quantum things. NPCs that exist in potential, living their virtual lives, reacting suitably to the local dynamic background sim (if that were a thing), sending out distress beacons and such. Then becoming a real non-virtual NPC on interaction.
Then becoming a living, growing character in the living universe from that point on. Like the SoM Nemesis system. Only better.
One day you will tell your NPC crew member tales of such things…
Love that music in Wally's bar
Me too, originally it had different acoustics, it was louder with a mild audio distortion effect, this was during testing, they toned it down for released, it was probably too loud but i liked it like that, it sounded more like it really should, it sounded like you could really feel it.
Also listen to all the changes in the audio as you're walking round, great attention to detail.

41 today here, going to be 41 tomorrow, of course I am 1200klms north of Perth so it gets hotter and stays hotter longer up here! Sometimes it rains, it's still hot, it steams as it hits the ground!
I think it's a mistake to use logic when a recipient's brain might already be broken.
This new person really seems a special one. Do you think their family realises, and is trying to help?In the 7 years I've been here, I've never once felt the urge to shove anyone on the ignore list...as much as there's been a few likely candidates, none of them have had my finger hovering over that mouse button quite as often. Sleut has perhaps come the closest... in the earlier years... but as ever, he always redeemed himself a couple of posts later making me hit that like button and feel guilty for thinking of it
