Title: im back ! (and some important news on the side)
Post by: Vasudan Commander on March 29, 2007, 06:35:56 am
Well, i'm back after 2 months in hospital. Some new faces here, but im sure you all should remember me. Anyways, long story short, i was hit by a car, got quite a few broken bones and some internal bleeding, but im fine. So, good to be back.  :D

Anyways, just here to discuss some of the new campaigns. So, if anyone has comments on the new campaigns, or perhaps the really old ones that are due to come out but we're still waiting.....

*cough* BLACKWATER OPS ! *cough*  :doubt:

so, i bid a warm welcome to all the newbies who are flinging around their frustrations about the plot holes in FS2....

let me answer all your questions right here, right now.

WE KNOOOOOOW!!!!  :rolleyes:

anyways, i'll catch you all in space ! Watch your tail, cause next time it'll be me in a horus shootin harpoons at u !

I was also sitting in hospital for about a month. I was laying with another guy who also was hit by a car, but strangely nothing happened to him. :p

The real question is: How much damage did you do to the car? :p ;7

When I run over someone, I expect them to pay for any damage done to my vehicle.

How fast was the car going at the time

Getting hit at 5 mph isn't quite the same as getting hit at 40 mph

Welcome back!
And damn, what's with the return of members after epic journeys? Maniax comes back after moving to New Zealand, which is on the other side of the world from everywhere, to his fiancée. and you come back after being run over by a car. What's next, someone went to Capella and back and dropping in to say hi to us?

It was a hatchback piece of junk, and she was a stupid bimbo talking on the phone at the time, i looked her straight in the face before she ran me down, and i managed to kinda hop into the air, hoping that the bumper bar wouldnt smash my pelvis to mush. Instead i smashed up against her window then rolled over it and landed on the road. the impact from the car, even though not directly into any bones, cracked 8 rib bones and some internal bleeding , just behind my collar bone from the impact of the road. Healed up within a month though. Doctor said i was lucky to be alive, and good thing i jumped into the air at the last second  :D The skank was forced to pay for all the medical bills too   :drevil:  :lol:

So anyways, question for y'all.....any good campaigns released in the last 2 months?

Oh, and for those wondering why Capella couldnt be re-opened: -

Its because even if the GTVA could reopen it, they dont want to.   :rolleyes:
Title: Re: im back ! (and some important news on the side)
Post by: Snail on March 31, 2007, 11:36:58 am
*****, really.


Reopened by the Shivans, perhaps? ;)

BTW, what I meant was that in the epilogue cutscene of FS1, it is clearly stated that Shivans can rebuild nodes. But I guess this is overpowered by other evidence in FS1. :blah:

We don't release BlackWater Operations, even for people who have had Operations.

Company motto really.

That came within a millimeter of happening to me a couple months ago.

Glad you got patched up alright, cause that's a ****ty way to die

Dont worry, we all wish someone  we hate gets run over.

Nobody cares what you like.

One important question you always have to ask yourself when on the Internet is 'do you care if, for example, BlackDove wishes you would get run over?'

Besides, it is a hypothetical question ;)

As I said, I don't like people being cynical, but it doesn't really matter. I was being rude, and I apologize.

Reminds me of all the slugs that are in alaska. Either stomping them with my bear feet when i was 3, salting the **** out of them with the dining table salt, or taking a piss on them when i was older, high sodium was just awesome. Man...they just melt and die, but talk about one way to make them move faster for a bit :lol:

BTW, what I meant was that in the epilogue cutscene of FS1, it is clearly stated that Shivans can rebuild nodes. But I guess this is overpowered by other evidence in FS1. :blah:
And in the ending cutscene for FS2, it is stated that the Shivans are exiles looking for a way back home.  Both cutscenes are the opinions of in-game characters, however. ;)

FS2's ending was an opinion, FS1's ending was 'understanding' of the Ancient theory.

"All the jump nodes from Earth are gone, but the Shivans can rebuild them.  I'm told we can expect them again, but not in my lifetime."

We never observed the Shivans rebuilding a jump node in FS1 (or FS2 for that matter) so that's purely speculation.  And the Shivans returned within the lifetime of characters in FS1.  So it's opinion/speculation. :)

And speculation can be proven wrong.  Karajorma and others have pointed out that if FS2 had never been made, post-FS1 campaigns would have focused on the Shivans rebuilding the node to Sol.
