Newcomer / Intro What are you up to?

…also completed 5 spire contamination missions in the last week or two

…and so, another movie was made - it’s a mostly unedited (except for cutting out a trip to a Spire that wasn’t actually on the mission list) recording, though has been annotated (you can skip the boring bits and watch the “highlights” in the chapter list) to facilitate easier viewing…

The AX Sabotage missions are a further chapter in the war saga that i’ve found quite enjoyable tbh, combining ship & ground (both SRV and on foot) activities into something quite interesting, satisfying even - and it’s all quite doable, much more so than the maelstrom/Titan death-dives imo, with reasonably well-engineered ship & suit… 'gratz again to the devs for still achieving this, despite the difficult times!

If they'd had some bonsai plant, I'd be tempted to get one. Especially if it were a silver oak.

Is my Brain Tree not bonsai? It does go everywhere with me too...

Well, nothing against brain trees, but...
You won't find those where I come from.

You can get them in the “pot plants” section at the ship&home decor store

I'd like to recommend this video to you all. As a software developer turned IT architect myself, it strike a particular cord. But any computer gaming fan can appreciate this. Especially fans of Elite.

You don't say...


I was referring to the fauna and flora of my home planet. There are no brain trees on there.

You absolutely sure? You might find a few in

 

[CMDR Timber McWolf]

No clue where that is, but definitely not on my home planet.

Finally found an AX Reactivation Mission with the long-promised Banshee-in-the-Base! Got to ride one! Hurrah!

That's hilarious, kind of reminded me of Starship Troopers.

That's amusing and impressive.

That is soooo darling, you're a hipster trend setter

My main alt has a cactus. It goes with her everywhere. It is called Caractacus and it is her little space friend

I'm still experimenting before I publish my META recommendations for peak cactus performance placement. But I took a cutting of aloe from my Hauler, that helps balance the look of it out, I think. It also soothes the prickles when I been moving the cactus.

NOT BONSAI. BANZAI!!!!!!!

yiyiyiyiii

MIYAGI APPROVE!

I think to get the balance right, you might want to move the cactus a little more to the right.

Banzai, you say?

Like this?

I didn't expect to win but see what I could do against this elite anaconda before leaving the nav beacon. But there was something wrong with her build I guess. She couldn't shoot but it was surprisingly satisfying practice on the rugged moving target. Took me thirty minutes !!

Tamira Thunderstar sat on the cactus

Now it is I who am so calm and well fed!

OMG, what's been unleashed? The scourge of the bubble (hope he doesn't come out to Colonia).

 

[Rhialto]

I made it to 5000+ light-years out and got the invitation from Professor Palin and Chloe Sedesi.
How do they even know where i am?
I found, (and still find) lots of unexplored systems, did a lot of scanning, and had a lot of first footfalls.
Now i am taking a different route back.
I wonder how much the payout will be

I would guess the payout would be handsome.

Regarding how the engineers know what's up...
I would think that there is some transponder that reports relevant data back to the Pilots' Federation. And they report to the Rescue Rangers and Engineers, for quick recovery if something goes awry and to enable the engineers to know when you fulfil their requirements.

I'm naming my (2) executioners Plum Flinger and Hummingbird Dispenser

Here’s some more “Banshee rodeo” - it seems the Banshees in the base are quite a bit tougher than the ones at the Spire sites, while Revenants now just require one shot from an Executioner… good for happy hunting with a fairly intense “boss battle” at the end

Also here’s some calmer, more err “scenic” Banshee footage, furtively shot from a hidden observation point…
