I would get excited even if it was just a shot of a cargo container or something, just because it's a container from BP.

Ask, and ye shall receive.

I came from chasing dreams to feel alone
There must be changes, miss to feel strong
I really need lifе to touch me

Why don't you do yourself a favour and look up the Wiki* or something.

Oh you still believe in fairy tales like Santa, the Easter Bunny, and free market competition principles?

Makes you wonder whether the GTVA just really hates Linux, and this is all one big misunderstanding caused by a quick google search. :D

 
Re: Updates are missing in action...
Also:



Woah---I'm really curious now; what's the story behind how a Solaris got to point-blank broadside position with a Titan? Wouldn't that require something like a pinpoint shock-jump against a modern GTVA frontline destroyer with a Solaris, of all things? I hope it makes sense and all adds up, as it'd be hilariously ironic and, perhaps, poetic.


As for other update stuff--it really doesn't have to be much or specific; you could do a weekly update that just brushes over some things like "we worked on [non-spoiler-version] bug fixes, or making the Titan-class destroyer a bit more hardware-friendly, or even 'this damn bug is giving us a surprising amount of grief'"; it makes a huge difference. Even when we know (or believe) that work is being done regularly, having that kind of proof or explicit updating is both reassuring and, for lack of a better word, energizing.
Delenda Est delenda est.

Because of who I'm pulling for, I hope that picture isn't an indication the GTVA has had a massive screwup and loses the war.  :D

Re: Updates are missing in action...
Making regular "we're still alive" updates makes little sense. Better to wait until we have something to show.

Whatever it is, I'm sure we can all expect a wall of text from you telling the devs how it should have been done after the fact. :yes:

Or maybe it's just a test mission used to balance Solaris' and Titan's broadside damage potential. :p

Highly doubt.  That kind of variance is one of the prime reasons to use armor types in FRED.
