You can make Fallout like 4 times over with that kind of cash.

Fed is slacking again, eh?

Still, i wonder, just hypothetically theorizing ... with advance in tech, such a 2D obilque cavalier perspective game...
Anyway - a lot of Fallouts. Not that it makes any relevance to anything.

The Hornet ship brochures/variants are expected to be revealed and put up for sale today.

Expect a shitstorm, as the Hornet is the top-of-the-line fighter available to pledgers.

Seems players have discovered a way to swap the hangar environment for a "star box" with asteroids, Earth, and a landing pad in which ships can be piloted (and weapons fired) in a rudimentary fashion, with unfinished HUD elements. This is unreleased pre-pre-alpha stuff, and essentially a leak. You can see a lot of it in this 4chan thread while it's up (I'm not going to spend 10 minutes laboriously uploading pictures):

Someone did find an hysterical bug with exiting your ship in this mode:

$24m reached while I was sleeping... $477,500 raised in just one day. That's $1.12m raised in less than a week since reaching $23m last Thursday.

  • Enhanced Capital Ship Systems – In addition to the command and control systems we’ve already outlined, we’re going to expand capital ship functions! Lead a damage control team to fight fires and repair key systems during battle, control internal bulkheads to slow boarders and man a number of consoles, like navigation and engineering, that will make commanding a capital ship feel even more immersive.

Blaine is this some kind of hoax or a legit thing? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=scrrgP3p96o

What does the guy get out of it? I might have to reserve one of those alpha slots before they're all gone.

It's not a scam, and as an original backer, I can do the same thing he can. We get nothing out of it except more clutter in our Billing window. I've already done it for Hoaxmetal and IDtenT. I still need to do it for Country_Gravy and I think VentilatorOfDoom

It requires you to trust me, but I have at least a modest track record with the Codex and other members at this point, so I'm certainly a better choice than that guy in the video. Add me on Steam, I'm in the RPG Codex group as Blaine (or if you don't do Steam, PM me).

Codexers are bros, so that's not an issue. If it's not too much of a bother to do, I'll let you know if I get around to getting the pledge.

Hm, so we can abduct players. Neat.

Possibly. Live capture may be for NPC-generated bounty hunting missions (with NPC targets), because I doubt a mechanic allowing one player to trap another player in an un-fun situation for potentially hours at a stretch will be viable. After all, the victim could just log off. There could however be a 10- to 15-minute time limit for the bounty hunter, or perhaps "capturing" a player might create an automated "copy" of their avatar, whilst the real player gets shunted back to his or her nearest hangar. Failure to deliver this "clone" (if the bounty hunter gets blown up on the way back, for instance) would mean a reduction or forfeiture of the bounty. This would also neatly solve the issue with trapping players/your target simply logging out.

What do I have to do, tell me the details.

You need to gift me your existing package, via an email address I'll PM to you in a moment. To do this, find the ship in your Hangar on the RSI website and click the "Gift" button, then enter said email address. Once I receive the gift, I'll exchange it for store credit, then use that credit to purchase a new package that's otherwise identical except it'll have LTI and will be cheaper (I can reimburse the difference in the form of $5 skins, or if you're the one who has the 300i and wants to upgrade slightly to the Avenger, I should be able to do that for you). I then gift that new package back to you via an email address you provide, ideally the one attached to your RSI account.

In other news, I've been playing around with my own Super Hornet and got some shots of the cockpit:

Bit of distortion on the second seat when viewed from the front, I think it thinks the canopy glass is still there even though it's retracted.
