  1. It kinda looks like a hard boiled egg rolled in everything bagel seasoning.
  2. Well.... technically it was already timelapse. But I'll post something if I see something.
  3. It's gonna be fuzzy dot... fuzzy dot.... Fuzzy Dot.... FUZZY DOT.... ASTEROID CLOSEUP... lost signal.
  4. Stupid stupid air. Always getting in my way. Why don't you go somewhere else!? Nobody likes you, stupid air.
  5. Any mod make it's a modded game. And please don't repeatedly tag the dev team, we have rules against that.
  6. The tutorials were not even included when a good number of us started playing, so we understand how hard it is to learn to play the game. We had to turn to YouTube tutorials (Scott Manley's older work in particular) to learn how to do all the basics. There are plenty of newer ones out there, and even if they cover older versions of the game, the basics are just the same. It's a game about rocket science, it's not going to be easy. But with a little study and diligent effort, it becomes one of the most rewarding ones I have ever played.
  7. Only if the Improbability Drive is the top tier propulsion.....
  8. Appears to be so. A technician will be with you shortly, please enjoy this brief hold music while we await delivery of lemon scented napkins.
  9. It's been fine for me over that time. I don't recall any of the mod team saying anything about it either. The forums are prone to a variety of errors from time to time, but I think this one is new. Keep track of it if it keeps happening and report back, we'll bump it up the ladder then.
  10. It's when they mis-apply science and don't stick with the new science. I'm ok with taking a premise that might be a bit wonky and implausible, but they keep trying to apply actual science to it, and undermining their plot and credibility. And yeah Armageddon was great in a very bad way because it was horrible on the science and facts, but great in the script and acting. This was neither. It was as If Emmerich just threw up his hands and yelled "I'm done! You guys figure it out" and left it to the other writers who weren't sure what they were doing. Emmerich has done other sketchy science movies and you just ran with it cause the whole concept worked together. Not this time. There were a number of scenes that used decent science to force a plot point, but then the effects of that science were completely ignored a scene later. Quite a few times my SO looks over at me to gauge my reaction to something, and quite a few times I'm like "Yeah, ok that works if they want it to, everything they just said is sorta ok", but then I'd lose my mind the next scene when everything they just laid out was ignored. I felt belt for the four or five people credited with being "NASA Consultants". It would have been a fun movie to watch if they had given the script a few more passes, just for the dialogue and plot, not even the science. The whole premise is kinda interesting, I can dig that. It was just their execution of it was dreadful. It just came on out HBO (or one of the streaming services I get)
