Dr Wookie Posted April 30, 2015 Clipper, but yep! It's my "aaah run away" trader right now (last configured for one of the trading community goals to have the best possible jump range)... it will haul 200 tons at over 400 m/s, so I just submit to any interdictions and get the hell away! I also have a vulture for fighting and a massively cut-down asp for exploring (nearly 35 ly jump range). It's cool, but it does mean that I need to go back to the storage place if I want to mix things up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dewar Posted April 30, 2015 I think I shall jump back in for a while this weekend, do some more exploring, and mission toward that clipper while I'm at it. How has the community goal stuff been going? I did a couple of cargo runs for the first one and found it underwhelming. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ninety-Three Posted May 6, 2015 Even busy hollows find time to praise it. I haven't played DS2 so I have to ask: Is that gameplay footage? Because that's the best-looking water I've ever seen in a game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mawd Posted May 6, 2015 Yes it is. No extra gfx packages either. I never got around to playing with ENBs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gormongous Posted May 6, 2015 I haven't played DS2 so I have to ask: Is that gameplay footage? Because that's the best-looking water I've ever seen in a game. It still moves a bit too much like jelly, but yeah, it's surprising how many random little things in the Souls series are actually the best graphical implementation of something in games.

Architecture Posted May 7, 2015 GTAV has the best water I've seen--the simulation of waves is pretty astonishing. Before that, I'd have given the crown to HALO 3. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tegan Posted May 25, 2015 This is just a randomly-occurring message, but it happened to pop up on the same day that I lost fourty Pikmin in an explosion. I made up for it later though. Also, Cave Story knows the score. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Korax Posted May 25, 2015 Also, Cave Story knows the score. Is this before or after you steal Curly Brace's panties? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eRonin Posted May 25, 2015 This is just a randomly-occurring message, but it happened to pop up on the same day that I lost fourty Pikmin in an explosion. This is why I stopped playing Pikmin 2 and couldn't bring myself to buy Pikmin 3. Somehow I am okay playing StarCraft 2 where hundreds of my Zerglings die at my command, but Pikmin is too stressful for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Somehow I am okay playing StarCraft 2 where hundreds of my Zerglings die at my command, but Pikmin is too stressful for me. It's because Pikmin goes out of your way to make you feel bad when they die. There's a whole lot in those games about how Olimar is actually the villain of the whole piece, exploiting the Pikmin to satisfy his own greed. The second game makes it the most obvious, but even in the first one, the ship part guided by the final boss is Olimar's piggy bank and not something vital to his survival. It's a really fascinating theme for a strategy game to take. Is this before or after you steal Curly Brace's panties? Looking back through my Miiverse profile (this was a while ago), I posted this screenshot one day later, but I think that was in New Game Plus. Anyway, I beat Pikmin 3! I wanted to shave time off since it was my second run and... well... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Merus Posted June 20, 2015 Why does Curly need panties she is a robot she has no need for underwear I think my housemate tried to finish Pikmin 3 in the minimum number of days. Don't recall if he succeeded. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tegan Posted June 21, 2015 Why does Curly need panties she is a robot she has no need for underwear To go under her clothes that she also doesn't need, obviously. This game is kind of a gut punch sometimes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Merus Posted June 21, 2015 To go under her clothes that she also doesn't need, obviously. That's completely different; clearly making the robots humanoid and self-aware was necessary for some reason, so if you have that, then making them wear a uniform like human soldiers isn't much more of a stretch. But panties usually aren't standard-issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Twig Posted June 21, 2015 I google image searched Curly from Cave Story to remind myself what kind of clothing she wears and let's just say the results are why she wears panties. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vulpes Absurda Posted June 21, 2015 It's one of those shader mods. I can't remember which though, I can't really tell them apart to be honest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Twig Posted June 21, 2015 Every time I tried to use those shader mods my performance tanked and it just made me mad because the screenshots look so nice. My computer should be able to handle it, which makes it all the more frustrating. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vulpes Absurda Posted June 21, 2015 You really have to use optifine and turn on Multi-core chunk loading to get them to work. But once I did that it runs at about 25 to 40 fps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
