Are there any good spacekino animemes? Particularly of the hard scifi angle

Capital ships slugging it out, power armoured space marines fighting off hordes of xeno scum, giant robots fighting tanks and so forth really gets my neurons firing

Gundam mecha shit need not apply

I don't really keep contact with anyone I knew in secondary or sixth form. Aside from my small group of friends I'd play chess or cards with in the library, and even most of them I haven't spoken to in over a year.

Maybe I'm that guy.

In what ways does it perform bad?

I'm putting off finishing my trilogy playthrough (I'm at Priority: Thessia and I just don't want to) but I'm planning on playing Andromemes once I'm done (gamesharing = free game). I'm interested if there's anything worth noting before starting.

Most notably: almost constant stuttering and framerate drops that significantly interferes with combat and movement.

Shit.

I really don't understand how developers are able to get away with not being able to hit a consistent 30 on the current consoles.

Full length trailer

Campaign will be Imperial perspective, starts at the end of the Battle of Endor to TFA, will probably be ass because >DICE campaigns
Will get to play as Luke and Kylo during the campaign

i mean a dice campaign is still better than what was given to us in the original battlefront 2

I actually really liked the 501st journal

They said it's gonna be a substantial part of the MP, hopefully they operate more like the original BF2 space battles

Oh I presumed that no mention in that image = no space

tbh I actually wish the first EA Battlefront was more Battlefield than arcade.

A reskin of BF4 with hero classes added would have been basically perfect.

This meme that Disney/EA hates the CW era needs to end.

>immediately cancel TCW seasons 6,7 and 8
>first battlefront game has no clone wars
>refuse to speak of the prequels or produce any TCW-era content for a number of years

Man, I wonder why people would think that.

I see we're still pandering to OTfags and shilling the sequel trilogy with the marketing.

Hopefully they'll show off more Clone Wars content soon.

« on: April 11, 2017, 05:52:26 PM »
I've watched it twice. I'd say it's worth it but at the same time you could always watch something new.

I personally recommend The Expanse if you like scifi. It's easily my favourite show on netflix right now. I'm currently reading the books, too.

« on: April 11, 2017, 10:22:47 AM »
There's a reason ME: Catalyst was on sale 50% off less than six months after launch.

It's a pretty game but a downgrade of the original in every other way.

Gaming / Re: Crafting systems pls go
« on: April 09, 2017, 08:11:23 AM »
i don't understand this complaint at all tbh

The majority of crafting systems feel tacked on to fill a checklist than a natural part of the game. It makes sense in say, Far Cry as they focus on survival amd whatnot, but a lot of games have them that don't feel necessary in any way.

yeah it's sad as hell
Nuka says he left because it's annoying

I left because it's basically pictures of ugly high school boys
I mean you're not wrong but what the fuck when the hell did I tell you that
I honestly can't remember when I just remember that it happened.
pretty sure I talked about it in another thread a few months ago

and stop acting like we're best buddies or something, it's fucking weird as shit
what

I brought you up because nobody else here has every talked about /lgbt/
like I said, it was a few months ago
And like I say every time chally says I keep tabs on people: I just remember everything.
do you have anything on me

I also want to ask this.

« on: April 08, 2017, 03:00:12 AM »
I feel hard-pressed to call Fo4 a bad game when at last check I had 36 days of playtime in it, most of that in the first six months of launch.

Everybody loves you when you're dead.

of course you'd be the one to say it
what do you mean

we all understand the sentiment behind your post (that we didn't "love" him when he was alive because he wasn't that important to us and now that he's gone we feel we have to overcompensate), but you're the only one who has said anything about the somewhat fake nature of our collectove mourning. just leave people to cope in their own ways even if it's bullshit.
Or maybe people should learn to show this type of affection to others while they're alive.

And I really don't care about your opinion of me being """toxic""" or whatever buzzword you want to use, shove it up your ass.
this post makes me want to show affection towards you
lmao

My point is that people who are nice and make an effort rarely get treated that way in return. It's a shame.

There's a bunch of people who Sandtrap was in regular PMs with.

Myself, I used to talk a lot both through messages here and on XBL before he stopped being able to go on voice chat. Combine with not posting here much now anyway and I never said much in public view.

I wouldn't be surprised if it's the same for a lot of people.

Hell, my friend who doesn't really forum much and only new sandtrap through XBL parties I was in (we used to play halo a lot together back in 2015/ early 2016) even came back on here to say something.

Serious / Re: event horizon telescope is online and operational
« on: April 06, 2017, 03:58:43 AM »
Wow really? But I mean... how do you take a picture of something that has no light to it?

Different things like radio waves or something?

Pardon the ignorance.

A lot of telescopes also look out for different frequencies of light - gamma, xray,infrared etc.

Plus, in terms of visuals, you'd be able to see a black hole due to gravitational lensing - the pull of gravity around one is so strong it physically affects and warps space. As such, if you were to fly past one you'd see the light behind it (so, dust clouds, stars, etc in the distance) warping and changing as it bends to go around the event horizon.

Also, Black Holes that are actively "feeding" will have rings around them (like Gargantua in Interstellar). These rings are dust, particles, matter, gas and so forth that fornerly made up all kinds of objects being ripped apart and accelerated to relavtavistic velocities. As the dust hits other bits of dust, a lot of friction is generated and thus a fuck ton of heat and light.

Good gravitational lensing video below.
YouTube


However, from the distance we are to Sag A*, there's simply too much dust, light and distance to really get a good picture of the gravitational lensing. The best we get is looking at radiation emitted and the orbits of stars around the galactic core.
