Pohaturon Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 "Check out these comic-making tools with which you can make comics that are worse than mine!" So tell me about Battletech... Or Star citizen. ~Soran Battletech started out as a boardgame featuring detailed miniatures that became a massive hit that spawned several sequels, spin-offs, a book series, a videos game series which itself spawned its own spin-offs and a short lived cartoon. the backstory is that after a brief period of peace during which mankind expanded into the galaxy, war became almost constant as civilisation fractured into several factions who were constantly bickering. After an intergalactic bill of rights was passed setting some ground rules for warfare which surprisingly everyone seemed to uphold, war became institutionalized as the primary method of conflict-solving between factions. After the BattleMech, an archetype of massive heavily armed and armored walking tank, was invented, the main theatre of war once again moved back to the surface of planets rather than space. Throughout the history of BattleTech, countless factions rose and fell, at one point the military forces of the unifying government decided to go like "screw this" and leave only to later return as a tribal invasion force and all kinds of other interesting things happened. In both the board- and video games, players typically take control of the titular BattleMechs from various perspectives, including piloting a single mech from a first person view, through a standard top-down strategic view to early attempts at isometric RPGs. The fandom that arose around it is extremely dedicated, though in the mainstream the video-games have gained a wider popularity than the tabletop games. The Battletech franchise features a massive roster of varied and unique Mech types, as well as other, more conventional and boring vehicles. Star Citizen is an in-development upcoming MMO space simulator which will also have a story-driven singleplayer campaign. The "Persistent Universe", which will be the game world upon full release, will contain a massive amount of star systems with procedurally generated planets, all of which can be fully explored. The dream of Star Citizen is to allow players to pick any profession they wish and is viable in a space-setting, ranging from pirate through merchant, explorer, mercenary, medic, news-reporter, soldier, miner, surveyor all the way to law-enforcement and much, much more. Seamlessness is a main feature, meaning you can get into your ship on planet A in a solar system, lift off, break orbit, travel to a planet in the system, land, explore, lift off again, visit a space station, jump to another solar system and land on a planet there too - all of this without a single loading screen. You can get up in your ship mid flight (provided it is big enough) and walk around, manipulating different systems and doing things like sleep and take showers. There is an FPS component when not driving a vehicle, and an absolute massive amount of content to be discovered. Quote Stone rocks Model Designer at The LEGO Group.

Haecceity Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 As we all know, the most important adjective in the English language is "Snazzy"! All other descriptors bow before its sheer might. They are useless against its vast cosmic power. All will perish on the day of Snazzying. There will be no survivors. Quote If you found this text, know that Kevin isn't real.

Pohaturon Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Snazzy and Chimoru are apparently two alternate versions of David Hasslehoff's car from Knight Rider.The oddly colored Takanuva under "Soran's Comics" is presumably Soran, but due to being Takanuva, this cannot be confirmed.Oddly enough, there is no road on the image titled "The Road to Home". Also, unless that air-ship-thing is the home of Soran Takanuva, there is also no home on it. Quote Stone rocks Model Designer at The LEGO Group. Former contributor at New Elementary.
