I’ve got a better idea, let’s just ban human beings!

Sexy trump isn’t real, sexy trump can’t hurt me.

Infra knife goes brrrr.

Seriously though, it’s the only weapon I have installed on all my ships. It rips through shields and ship hulls.

I always upgrade it with S class modules at first then hunt for decent X class ones.

For me it’s always ‘bus-in-ess’

Thank you for that information.

There’s some great quotes in this article, my favourite was:

‘George Butlin, director at the UK Loose Leaf Tea Company, echoes that sentiment and professes a "profound aversion to this kind of innovation".’

I can just imagine him saying ‘profound aversion’ whilst holding a China tea cup with his pinky sticking out.

I’ve been using airvpn for 5 years or so and can confirm the port forwarding works for me.

I had trouble with their vpn client app (eddy or Eddie I think it’s called) so I just switched to the OpenVPN client and have had zero problems since then.

Well I can tell you what I know but it is certainly possible that the latest update has changed everything. I haven’t tried getting a freighter since the update. The fact that there is now a chance to encounter a pirate freighter definitely mixes things up… I don’t know how that might affect things though.

It used to be that you’d play until you encountered a freighter battle then load up your previous restore point so you know that next time you warp you’re going to encounter a freighter battle. You could then go to the galaxy map and select a star system, warp in, take a look at the capital freighter and decide if it’s one you like. If not, reload your restore point and choose another star system (each star system has its own capital freighter that never changes).

It’s best to choose 3 star economy systems or pirate systems when looking for a freighter. As I remember, a 3 star system has a 2% chance of spawning an S class freighter, that’s a one in 50 chance so you may have to do a lot of reloading until you get S class. Pirate systems have a better chance of S class at 5% but the freighters will have less cargo slots so you’ll need to spend more time upgrading their storage. 2 star economies only have a 1% chance of S class and 1 star economies cannot spawn an S class.

Once you find a freighter you like just keep reloading your previous save until it spawns as S class. Now, I always do it by just reloading my save and then warping in to the system, but apparently you can warp in to the system, land at the space station, exit your ship to create a new restore point and then use that restore point to keep loading from. So you’d load up that restore point, fly out the space station and the freighter battle should still be there.

To check the freighter you can ignore the battle and just fly straight in to the freighters landing bay. Exit your ship (this doesn’t create a new restore point as a save isn’t made on npc freighters) bring up your scanner and look at the floor/wall/whatever of the landing bay and it will give you the freighter info including it’s class, no need to go up to the bridge. If it’s not S class, reload your restore point and try again.

That’s how it used to work anyway. I don’t know if you can just ignore the battle anymore and fly straight in to the hangar.

There’s often a section in the build guide for hardcore. For example, I’m following the shadow minion necro guide and it has a section for hardcore adjustments. There’s also a link in that section for a general hardcore guide.

Also, good luck! I think I would be on about my 15th character by now if I’d gone hardcore.

Diablo 4. I’m gonna wait quite a while for this one I think. Firstly I’m not willing to pay the price it is right now but mostly because the game needs to get better. It took a long time for Diablo 3 to turn in to a decent game.

Starfield. I’ll definitely be giving this one at least a year, probably more. I’m expecting it to be riddled with bugs at release, possibly even borderline unplayable.

I played the trilogy a couple of years ago. I’m a big fan of the original games and was mostly happy with the reboot.

For me the second instalment was the best of the reboot (rise of the tomb raider). The stealth is improved making it actually viable to clear whole areas using just stealth. I also loved the environments of the second one.

Overall I really enjoyed the 3 games but the balance between combat and puzzle solving was too far towards combat to make them feel truly like tomb raider games. The puzzle solving should have been a bit harder as well to truly make them feel like tomb raider games.

I’m so torn about this. On one hand I want to read all about it because I’m so excited for it but, I also want to wait until full release and play it blind…. And get my ass handed to me.

I think I’m gonna try and avoid all news about it.

There’s one posted in the expedition thread. https://lemm.ee/comment/3140749

I thought he was a pilot whale…. Or maybe from wales, it’s all so confusing.

They’ve been around for a while now, since the waypoint update I think… maybe even endurance.

As far as I’m aware they can happen anywhere in space. Most ppl don’t notice them because they don’t really appear unless you stop and stay in the same place for a minute or 2.

‘Recipe’ is the spelling you’re looking for.

‘Fixed an issue that prevented barrel rolling during warp’

Oh thank god! I was genuinely missing that.

Also, salvaging atlantid multi tools now gives void motes… nice.

Your 3 languages put my 1 to shame.

Ppl think 2 is the worst? Huh, I wasn’t aware of that.

Thing is, I don’t really remember much about 3. I played the first one through twice and the second one I played through 3 times and all the dlc. By the time I got around to the third game I think I’d just kinda had enough of tomb raider and rushed through it and never replayed it.

I think I might actually go back and play the third instalment again now that it’s been a while since I last played it.
