Now that was good!

Andy's docking preety slick too.

Now you've made me fire up the Beta to check this out

Cheers mate!

@Captain N

That's so cool! That is literally a new game there. Finally a use for the xbone controller; you could set it up like you would the controller for quadcopters.

Brilliant!

Edit: sorry, I may have misunderstood the OP - is this about the new docking challenge in 2.3? Oh well ... enjoy anyway!

Hah! FA Off (my face)!

Brilliant!

I enjoyed the emotional journey. DBOBE's wobbling head was a touch too.

Purely for the lulz.

Oh man I miss this game, been months since I've flown a ship :-( Really old video of mine, used to have lots of fun practising FA-OFF, blasting in and out of the dock 10 or 20 times in a row (Solo mode) I don't think a sidewinder cmdr in open would appreciate a T9 boosting through the access corridor!

The new docking challenge will be handy for Explorers spending months/years out in the black.

Beautiful. I've never used the voice (attack?) software, but that looks both effective and fun. Sounds pretty cool, too.

Now I'm even more deflated regarding my own substandard FA Off landing skill. Before this thread I thought just wobbling in though the slot and getting docked in approximately 1-2 minutes was pretty brag worthy...

Blatant messing about. Love it!

This is what I think people without FA Off really miss out on: that feeling of 'throwing' your ship about and the range of inertia across the craft. Whenever you get back and want to screw around on planets in a SLF, let me know!

For definite! Really looking forward to flying with some of you guys when I'm back, unfortunately it looks like another 8 weeks till I get home.
