I analyzed him. Apparently he’s a ‘J.Beechoschosa’ (@BeachAV8R!) and he misses his mother the most of all. I’ll be fine as long as it doesn’t get dark.
That crab thing is cool. I found a Tricerastegauratops (and renamed him so before uploading). Pictures coming when play session done.
If you press P and got to the discoveries tab, you can press x on an entry and rename it before uploading. I -think- this is supposed to do so for anyone who then visits later but I dunno. My page constantly says I have lost connection to the upload service, too, but it seems to be doing what it’s supposed to, as the custom names have stuck at least for me.
That’s cool. I’ve been flying around artefacts, learning the language. I have about 20 words learned - I can probably just about ask directions to the train station and order a beer in Korvax.
At the crash site, there was a data pod which I investigated and it suggested searching through the cargo. I was looking around until I realised the cargo pods were mostly underground, had to ‘F’ search them, blow off the soil and then open the locks. Upon opening, a dangerous radioactive cloud popped up, so you have to dash away to safety…but the bounties! I got $250k from a single box! Also got items such as empty antimatter holders.
I named her Bumblebee. She’s an Explorer class ship and I understand the model won the ‘most versatile boot configuration’ category in the “Shopping Bags of the Stars” magazine’s annual competition.
Looks aside, she was relatively affordable in comparison to the fighter classes and boasts 24 units of cargo. I just have to live with looking like the sensible, cost-conscious, middle-class dad at the intergalactic traffic lights.
After much stormy shenanigans and wood fort building, and mining, I’m directed to space once more. This time to a space station. It’s quite big (Where’s Wally/Waldo for my ship in this shot).
Being English, I tried just shouting and form 2 lines of rifles while wearing bright red clothes. My shouting hopefully encourages him to learn English soon?
I quickly run out of fuel, but you can ‘mine’ asteroids as you go. Seems a bit of a cheap gameplay loop, but whatever. Mining is rarely fun in any game.
That’s my one worry here - I love the screenshots but part of my fun is that I haven’t read anything anywhere about this game, so I know nothing about what’s ahead…and I wouldn’t want to ruin that to others.
Definitely having fun. I’m cruising low above the desert floor at idle speed, just lazily avoiding the terrain and looking for random interesting places. Sipping a beer. Having a great time.
