I enjoyed both. my gaming group definitely preferred Empyrion though. especially with the Reforged Eden mod.

I enjoyed building things in space engineers more due to the mechanical aspects. and the fact that you could program and automate things. I enjoyed the hell out of making a giant drill. and the vehicles you can build can do really cool things, check out the steam workshop for cool examples.

on the other hand, in Empyrion you actually get to use the vehicles. and they felt more like my own personalized ship. plus going from picking plants on the surface to launching into space is a great starting game loop. and then once in space you can do mining more easily than space engineers or just take out and scrap opposing ships. or trade is viable.
it can be challenging to get the initial materials required. it can also be unforgiving if you pick a fight above your pay grade, so make sure to save (and prioritize a shield). the building is not as complex, but that actually works for it. my buddy builds some mighty cool ships. I tended to get a cool ship from the workshop and then heavily modify it to make it my own, which is a fun feature.

the xcover is a great phone. not the fastest or with the best camera, but the other features make it fantastic. it's also pseudo-ruggedized, I carry it without a case and it's held up great to a few typical drops and such

this is the biggest disappointment to me. the game wasn't good enough to justify all the crazy star wars mods that could have been. even lightsabers and speeders won't make this into a good game unfortunately

yeah, but you can carry it with you at all times if your phone takes an SD card.

although, can they use one that large, or is there some restriction?

defund the buying of crazy gear and fund the training of officers. good training, not fantasy camp rambo that some go through

120 yards. a difficult shot still tho with the hardware

honestly, even then it's not really worth the time IMO

it would hilarious if they don't even switch bodies in the sequel. Just them going about their friday...

Dominator is the business

The skill-shot way is to dodge and then wait for his little stop animation. If you hit him in the back of the leg it'll do a temporary armor crack and then a second shot on that same leg within a few sec will kill it. you'll notice a little flame on his leg that indicates you've hit the first shot correctly.

But the other suggested ways are easier to time, especially if there's a lot of Chaos going on

as a side mission maybe, but only if they speed the raising up by a good 20%.

anyone remember in the black and white 2 lion head logo screen how you could move the logo around and fuck up the filling of it with the little beads?

 

Is there any way on mobile firefox to get the tabs grouped together?

For instance when opening a tab from one you're not done reading usually other browsers will have like a 'open tab in group' option but I am not seeing that on firefox.

 

I had a micro SD card slotted into a carrying spot and the little section at the end with the lip to pull it out of its slot snapped off.

Does anyone know if they still work at that point, or do the electronics go all the way to the end?

Tried to upload a photo, but was running into issues.

 

One I always come back to is Planetary Annihilation.
Never felt like it really got off the ground, or maybe that's as good as the precursors got too. But dang it I still find it fun to run through a little campaign thing, despite it getting super unbalanced in your favor as soon as you knock at one of the first 'bosses'. Suprised that they're still updating and maintaining it, even to the point of adding mods in as 'official' content.

How can you go wrong with smashing planets into each other or just straight up death-staring your emeny into dust motes?

And then they were going to make Human Resources, which looked like wicked good fun. Perhaps in some alternate universe that panned out...

Any games you guys have that feel that way to you?
